IA M ERE men who have been

Snspeakably given to nerves scarcely
can credit the statement that women
will race with aeroplanes during the
summer aviation meets. Mile. Du-

James V. Martin will wear the English
colors and Miss Emily Willard, daugh-
ter of c. F. Willard, aviator, will be
an American representative. And
right here one mere man pins his
faith to Miss Willard, who has shown
herself to possess courage undaunted
by mice, bugs, thunderstorms and fly
ing machines.
The fact that women are flying
proves, of course, that they are and
probably always have been just as
brave as men. Psychologists claim
that women can stand much more pain
than man, and this is not to be scott
ed at in the aerial business, where
one may come down at any time like
an April shower, gently and grace

tried for the first time in the army
aviation school at College Park, Md.
Successful surveys We're made and re-
turning the machines landed without
the aid of watch fires. Captain Beck
piloted one machine, with Lieutenant
Arnold manipulating the searchlight,
and Lieutenants Milling and Kirkland,
respectively, were at the steering wheel
and light in the other. The aviators
were in the air long enough to demon
strate the practical value of lights for
night flying.

Edwards, chief of the bureau of insular
affairs, to the secretary of war, re-
garding the Philippine islands, the total
exports for the year amounted to $780,
1859 and maintained substantially
the high record established by 1910.
Imports reached the unprecedented
value of $49,s33, 722, but this amount
is not fully comparable with the small
er totals of previous years, since it in
cdludes imports of government supplies
and railway supplies heretofore entitled
to free entry and excluded from the
totals for previous years.
