Mrs. H. F. Newton
Died Saturday
Mrs. H. F. Newton, after a
lingering illness, passel away
Saturday morning at her late
home on Oconee street. Deceased
had been in a precarious condi
tion for several weeks, and pre
vious to that time had been in
delicate health for a number of
years. However, she b.re u
under the burden with a Chris
+ian fortitude, always looking to
Him who ‘‘Doeth all things well,”
and met the last summons calmly
and trustfully.
Mrs. Newton was fifty-two
of age and had spent the last ten
years of her lifein Fitzgerald.
She was a consistent member of
the First Baptist Church, and
though prevented by feebl
health from taking an active pari
in church affairs, in a quiet anu
unassuming way, accomplished
much for the Master’s cause. A
thoughtful and sympathetic wife,
a loving mother, and a loyal
friend, Mrs. Newton was loved
by everyone whose life she touch
ed, and her place can never be
substituted in the hearts of her
friends and bereaved family; and
while the separation .at times
seem 3 unbearable, it is a great
comfort to know where to find
her and to realize that she is
waiting for her loved ones in that
Celestial City where the redeem
ed find the life eternal.
Before her marriag », Mrs. New
ton was Miss Eula Belle Black,
and was born and raised in Ma
con. Besides the grief-stricken
husband, she is survived by one
s s er, Mrs. C. E Abel, of Macon,
and one daughton, Mrs. Annie
Harvey, of Tifton. There arc
also two grandchildren and other
relatives, all of whom have the
deepest sympathy of the commu
nity in their hour of sorrow.
The funeral occurred Sunday
afternoon at the family residence,
Rev.. Thomas M. Callaway offi
ciating. The quartette, consist
ing of Miss Gibbs, Miss Kennedy,
Miss Lobingier and Mr. Wm. R
Bowen, rendered several of the
deceased’s favorite hymns.
The services were attended by
a large concourse of sympathetic
friends. The floral offerings were
beautiful, and the huge wreath
sent by the Order of Railway
Conductors attested the high
esteem in which the deceased
was held by the Order, of which
the surviving husband is a prom
inent member.
After the funeral services at
the home, the body was taken to
Tifton for burial, where the last
sad rites were performed by Rev.
C. W. Durden, and a quartette,
consisting of Mrs. J. B. Murrow,
Mrs. J. J. Golden, O. C. Griner
and I. W. Myers.
The pall-bearers at the funeral
services in this city were Messrs.
J. L. McCarty, Guy Johnstone,
R. 1" Maffett, Wm. R. Bowen,
J. L. Dorminey and J. D. Mec-
Lauchlin.
i At the burial services in Tif
ton the pall-bearers were Messrs.
J. L. Brooks, B. Y. Wallis, R. C.
Postell, (Wm. Wall J. E. Coch
ran and W. H. Parker.

ECONOMY IN THE BEST FEED
Nothing Gained by Purchasing Sup
plies for the Poultry Because
They Are Called Chesap.
(By A.. Q. SYMONDS.)
No matter what food is given the
fowls be sure it is the very best that
can be procured, It does met pay to
buy poor grain or poultey foed of any
kind. Some peeple think it is eco
nomical to buy pouwltry supplies be
cause they are cheap.
The best is nene toe good, is a
rule as applicable here as anywhere
glse. Only the very best gralns should
be sanctioned. Only the cholicest
brand of beef scraps, flne cut clover,
alfalfa, and ether foods of this sort
should be used grhem is nothing that
wil repay one better for goed eare
and food given them than a flock of
hens. See to it then that in the mat
ter of foods given them only the best
be procured and only the best be fed.
Value of Charcoal.
For all kinds of digestive troubles,
charcoal*is one of the best remedies.
TI'E LEADER-ENTERPRISE, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8. 1912
Motor Car With Wings Is Lates!
. in Freach Capital.
Successful Experiments kave Been
Made With Machines That Combine
the Principies of the Automo
bile and the Aeroplane.
Paris.—Paris is gossiping over the
latest type of motor car—one Wwith
wings. M. Bertrand de Lesseps re
cently drove some distance from the
capital in a machine thus equipped.
M. Filippi is another searcher in the
same field, who has been even more
successful, Filippi based his trials on
thz principle of the bird’s wing and
aimed at producing a propeller which
should realize the same effect as the
beat of a bird’s wings in the air. The
propellor evolved is not a screw, but
a bride of wood, broader and thicker
in the center than at the extremities,
one of which tapers off nearly to a
point. The other is comparatively
wide, looking like a wing, concave on
one side and convex on the other.
Furthermore, both ends are curved
backward, forming an obtuse angle.
The wkole is inclosed in a eage and
measures only about 55 inghes in dia
meter, not projecting beyond the
gauge of the car in any direction. The
maximum speed is 2,200 revolutions
a minute. This air propelling system
enables the constructor to dizpense
with the most delicate and compli
cated parts of the machinery at pres
ent employed—no more gear boxes are
required, 28 a change in the num
ber of rotations is substituted for a
change of gear, while progress back
ward 1s ebtained by reversing the
movement of the wing. This backward
rotation also serves as a powerful
brake whemr going downhill, and does
away with *“differentials” and back
bridges.
In traveling the friction is reduced
to a minimum, and the car seems
hardly to touch the ground, raising
no appreciable dust, and eonsequently
inflicting but slight ‘wear and tear on
the tires, while the comfort of the
pessengers is improved, In general
appearance the car used recently re
sembled an ordinary torpedo type, but
the rear part ‘forms an extension,
grom whieh projects the axle carrying
the wing. The 40 horse-power motor
is in front, and conneets with the
wing by transmission ehains. There
is no other mechanism, and the wheels
all run free like the aront wheels of an
ordinary automobile, One lever only
is used to start, and move forward
or backward, by reserving the rota
tiom of the wing, and there is one
pedal by which ex tpa brake power is
put on.
The whole car weighs about 1,320
pounds, or, with its three passengers
and the necessary equipment, about
2,000 pounds. A start was made about
4 o'clock in the morning, in the pres
ence of several spectators, and after
showing off its capabilities in various
preliminary maneuvers the oear went
off on its journey of 300-odd miles
amdidst cheers. The travelers sent
telegrams reperting progress frem dif
ferent points on the way, and arrived
safely at Lyons, The future trade in
terests Invelved in this experience
may prove of immense importance,
and the new type of wiag may turn
out superior to the screws so cem
monly used in the aereplane. In the
trials made by M. Filippi with a view
te finding the best shape for the wing
the present model gave 70 per cent
of power, which is at least 10 per
cent. more tham has yet besen pro
dguced by the bést knewn screw -prepel
ler of the usual type.
