Is the intention of the aviation sec
ton to train as many reserve aviators
as possible. and whether this number
Will be a thousand or less will de-
pend upon the personnel and facili-
ties available.
In his statement Lieutenant Colonel
Squier says the training of reserve
aviators will fall into two classes
reserve military aviators, who will be
trained at civilian flying schools, and
national guardsmen. When reserve
aviators are thoroughly trained they
will, if satisfactory, receive commits
sions as officers in the officers re-
serve corps. For these men the civil
ian schools will be utilized for pre-
liminary training, and army aviation
schools will be formed as rapidly as
necessary to take care of the appli-
cants.
Any civilian who wishes to Join the
officers reserve corps as a reserve
military aviator should send his appli-
cation to the war department at Wash

medical officer. and also, If 1t is pos
sible, by an officer of the probable fit

quire q considerable degree of skill as
pilot. though they are not as diff
ficult as the junior military aviator S
tests which the army pilots take. When
the reserve military aviator has passed
his tests he will be commissioned a
first lieutenant in the officers reserve
corps. He will then be required to re-
port Is days in each year for instruc-
ton and practice at one of the army
| flying fields, during which period he

nication, But Mother is Unable

An unknown woman, who was once

evening mail the Tuesday following
his departure from Mexico. 1t was
brought by a messenger and addressed
to her son.
The following morning, between
five and six o'clock, a woman's voice
! called her house over the telephone
and asked for her son, but refused tc
give her name, saying she wanted tc
speak to him about a letter sent the
evening before. Mrs. Atkinson ther
opened the letter and says it wa.
about as follows:
"When I was in trouble and came t.
your office often, / am afraid vol
thought ! was a nuisance, but YOU
kindness in my time of need is no
forgotten and I have $4,000 to ali
you, if you need the money now.
