sale, Marriott and others-were not
merely brilliant swordsmen but also
exceedingly accomplished horsemen,
so today Navarro believes that the
most successful of the airmen must be
not merely men of courage but also
brilliant aviators, and he believes that
he has attained to this position. In
his own little world of fighters. where
men are judged without complacency
as well as without jealousy, and where
courage is such common thing that
no one would think of commencing a
person for it, Navarro is unanimously
declared to be the first of all. He is
1.-The ace" they say.
All the aviators carry some charm
or talisman, and Navarro has his. 1t
is wOman's silk stocking. which he
wears around his neck. However, he
is essentially serious. He has one
dominating idea, and it is to see the
formation of special air squadron,
composed of all the "aces" of the fight
ing type, all acquainted with one an
other, all working to the common end,
aiding one another supporting one an
other. Then, he says, never would a
German machine pass the line. Before
the war, Garros, who is now a prisoner
in the hands of the Germans, had
formed his famous aerial quadrille-

should fight in a squadron. The prin-
cipal of the thing. in my view is sim
pie. We should merely initiate in the
air Bonnot's famous band of automo-
bile bandits, and the Germans would
be the Paris police on whom Bonnet
and his men used to swoop down with

Paris, May 31.-Two names that are
on the tongues of all Frenchmen these
days are those of Georges Carpenter
and Jean Navarro Carpenter, before
the war Frances greatest pugilist, is
today known as one of the republics
most daring and resOurceful airmen.
He already has to his credit more than
one victory over enemy fiierS.
Jean Navarro, the new star among
French aviators, is hailed as the great
est that has yet appeared. This young
man, who combines courage, science,
demoniacal energy, has invented new
methods of air fighting. His name is a
household word not only in France but
in the other chief countries of Europe.
He has fought over forty battles, and
has destroyed Is German aeroplnes-
said to be the record Eight times he
| has been mentioned in French official
communications. He is now a sub
| lieutenant and has received many dec
| orations.
Navarro has a theory and his prac-
tice has confirmed it. To destroy an
enemy machine one has to get inside of
| it; one has to run after it, to dominate
| it, to envelop it, to Overwhelm it, to
worry it. to turn all around it without
cause or respite, dancing from one
wing to the other, dropping like a
plummet in vertical fall, looping the
loop and never allowing the enemy to
recover his senses or to get control of
| his firing apparatus.
! Navarro believes that the great
requisite for an air fighter, along with
courage and nerve, is the science OF
fight. Just as the great cavalry Off

YOUR GARDEN,

If You Find Bugs on nasturtiums
or other flowers, buy some tobacco
stems and boil in water 20 minutes.
Use this on the plants. 1t will not
injure plants. You can also use to-
bacco stems as fertilizer; bury them
in the ground in the autumn or week
before planting seeds. 1t is very good
and cheap.
When Transplanting Plants II
steel filings are sifted into the new
soil before the plants are put in, the
plants will grow faster and much
bigger. The reason is that when
watering the plant the steel filings
rust, thus promoting its growth.
