Aviators May
Make Experiments

Although Postmaster General Hitch
cock has not committed himself on the
question Of conducting number OF ex-
periments this winter Of the delivery
Of mail by aeroplane, II is probable that
the army aviators will make few such
trips In the South after they are located
for the winter.
At Nassau Boulevard Mr.. Hitchcock
took a long ride with Capt. Paul Beck,
OF the army aviation school. carrying
mail from the aviation field over to 9
nearby town. The. postmaster genera genera
was 30 we'll pleased with the possibili-
ties Of using the aeroplane for the de-
livery Of mail that since that time he
has conducted a number of experiments
with professional aviators, whom he ap-
pointed for that purpose. -,
Should the aviators go to Greenvliie,
General would find experiments easy TO
conduct in that part Of the country
owing to the fact that there are a
number OF little towns near by. and the
country over which the flights would
be conducted is level.
Captain Beck and the other officers
are willing to conduct any such expert
ments the Postmaster General wishes
attempted.

just where the map begins to grow mar

Well just little way from that town

was an orphan boy who had been left
in the care of an uncle, who was not
very kind to him and who made him
work very hard early in the morning
until late at night.
Much of the time Olaf had to work
in the woods, where he helped the men
cutting down trees and sometimes he
had to swing a heavy ak, for wood
cutters were very scarce and work was
so hard.

little girl not more than ten years
of age sat beside me. Her young shoul-
ders had a detected droop, and she
breathed laboriousIy. Turning to look
at her more closely 1 found her breath
ing through a wide-open mouth, her
lower Jaw frankly dropped to admit the
polluted air in the car.
From the child my eyes wandered to
other passengers. The car was crowd
ed, the air close and impregnated with
germs. And eight out of every ten pas
sengers on that car were taking the
polluted air into their lungs through
open lips.
OF all the number of mouth breathers
there was neither man, woman, nor
child whose shoulders did not droop,
whose chest was not sunken, whose at
tItude was not one of detection.
The majority of them slumped down
into their seats, regarding the world
through tired. listless eyes
Manly Face
"IeCheQ Dy FIdCIlCe.
1 noticed one man in partiCular-a
splendidly made fellow-but one whose
face was not developed in the lower
part because of the mouth-breathing
habit which he had acquired. The
cheeks sank in; the Jaws ran to a
point, and there were other weak lines
in a face that the Creator surely in
tended in the beginning to De manly.
A woman sat beside this man; a
woman who. if she did not quite so
frankly drop the lower jaw, breathed
through an aperture in her lips, never
theless. She took in the polluted air
through her lips as though it gave her
pleasure. and looked much as though
some one of the diseases to which
mouth breathers are easy prey had al
ready laid hold upon her.
She was as thin and gaunt as Jobs
turkey.
Nor did the expression of her eyes
