KEEN EARS OF BL
AS GUIDE IN Bl
Cperisl Pisnttch to The Star.
ATLANTA, Ga.t September 15.?"I
can hear trees, posts, buildings and
the like exactly as you can see them."
Paul Ponehoo. blind coroner of Atlanta.
today gave this explanation of
how he is able to flfnd his way along
the streets, through crowded traffic and
in many places whore a man with
perfect sight might be more or less
nervous.
He has just returned from a trip to
New York. He insists that he was
pass safely through the whirlpool of
people at the busiest corners, without
an attendant and without aid.
He was asked how he could hear
objects that make no noise.
"How do you see something that,
after all, has no color?a strip of
bleached linen, a colorless cloud, a
white petal?" he questioned in repty.
"And how do you know that inanimate
objects do not make a noise? Perhaps
they echo sound in a manner apparent
only to most sensitive ears. Perhaps
their molecular construction Ss the reason.
Objects are composed of molecules
always in motion. Maybe that motion
produces sound that is evident only
to those whose ears are attuned
through the absence of some other
sense.
"Whatever the reason, this sense
of hearing objects such as trees and
posts, walls and the like, is as distinct
with me as are your powers of
Islght. If it wasn't for some such
sense I never would be able to
come and go at will as I do.
As it is I meet with no accidents
and never bump into any
fixed object although occasionally a
hurrying Individual may give me
trouble and inconvenience."
Paul Donehoo now is at work on a
new sy3tem of shorthand for the
written Braille system in use by the
blind. When it is completed he says
that the present method will be reduced
in volume at least one-half.
In addition to being city coroner he
is a practicing lawyer and a very accomplished
musician. He has just
turned down a flattering offer to
?nter vaudeville.
At coroner's inquests he personGOES
TO SUPERVISE^
WORK ON ZEPPELIN
maj. Kennedy Will Be in Germany
t During: Construction of
U. S. Craft.
BELLA'ILLE. III., September 15 ?
Maj. Frank M. Kennedy, who has been
stationed at Scott Field, the government's
flying: field near here, since
September 25. 1921, departed for Germany
today, where he will supervise
the construction of a great Zeppelin
that is to be built for the United
States. His wife and son accompanied
him.
Maj. Kennedy came to Scott Field to
oversee the building of the $1,300,000
hangar, which Is nearly completed.
Maj. J. A. Paegelow has been named
his successor as executive officer at
Scott Field. It has been proposed to
give the Zeppelin that is to be built
for the United States Army a thorough
trvout by flying from Friederichshafen,
Germany, where the monster airship
is to built, to the United States. The
airship, it has been estimated, will be
ready for such a flight in about a
year.

ally takes all of the testimony,
writing it in his especially constructed
typewriter by the touch system. His
memory also has been developed to
an unusual degree and he recalls
readily all of the evidence given by
the witnesses. Until recently he
depended entirely on his memory in
trying cases, as a practicing attorney,
but now he considerably utilizes
his shorthand system and recasts his
notes into the Braille system for
reading with the finger tips.
But his manner in walking confidently
through the most crowded
streets through hearing the objects,
even the buildings, has amazed every
one who has witnessed it.

| ' What Dr. Pearl fc. Hood j
j ; Thinks of Germinol I !
'i
i Has Used It For Years i I
; i 'i \
I *
Dr. Pearl E. Wood is one of
j Washington's best known and
I ! most successful chiropodists. Her
office is located at 921 F street
I northwest, where she conducts a
I substantial practice. Dr. Hood
j has used Germinol for years in
her own practice and has found it
extremely efficient at all times?
particularly in severe oases of
Bromhlrosis (the medical name for
perspiring feet).
Germinol. contains free oxygen,
j | When Germinol comes in contact
j with the dampness of the foot,
j this free oxygen neutralizes the
| 1 upleasant odors of the perspira- j
; tion. But if that were all. Germ- i
j inol would not meet with the apI
proval of so map? chiropodists. f
; Germinol has extraordinary j
i ! vitalizing properties which stimu|
late circulation of blood throughS
out the feet. It regulates the j
| action of the sweat glands, which j
i cause the perspiration, and tones i
I up the tissues and muscles of the |
j feet. Extremely effective also, i
j where the skin is cracked and
j scaly?a condition often notice!
ahlo hpt u-f pn fhft toes. i
You will find Germinol cooling.
1 1 soothing, healing- and thoroughly
\ | effective. Your shoes will last
I | longer because there will be no
! | acid in the perspiration to rot
, ! away the shoe lining and crack
the leather.
! ! When suffering from serious ailments
; ! of the feet be sure to consult a good
1 ! chiropodist.
But in cases of sweating feet, tired.
I aching feet, tender, burning feet, flab|
I binese due to poor circulation, etc.?
j | Germinal is a product that you can rely
i | upon as a remedy that will get to the
cause of the trouble and remote it.
i Because of its resultfulness, Germinol
i has the endorsement of the finest type
j of chiropodists who have kpown and used
( it for years before it was offered to the
| public.
{ Do not confuse Germinol with ordinary
i foot powders, which cannot hare the same
effectiveness as this highly scientific professional
product. There is nothing like
it on the market today.
Get Germinol at any of the Peoples
Drug Company's 12 stores, the O'Donnell
I>rug Stores, the Christian! Drug Stores,
the Palais Royal. Woodward & Lothrop
and at leading drug stores. Made by The
; Belmont Company, Chemists, Springfield,
