So there you are: CocaCola reaps har-

The Methodist church can't move against
CocaCola because Asa is the brother of our

from the Germans that security at

Of $500 yards, while at 1900 yards it
is often more difficult for the gunners
to get the range The fire at that
point is generally too high.
Again, al the beginning. The French
aviation service used the same type
of machine for all kinds of missions.
All at once they discovered that the
German machine that made raid on
a metropolitan center or military
point was not the same as the ma
chine that regulated the fire of the
artillery. The result of this was the
beginning of classification of air

PARIS. Feb. 22. French aViatlon

making improvements of most I'M
portant character, while 1t possessed
certain advantages over the French
flying corps at the outset.
The reasons for the superiority OF
the Germans in what was consider
ed before the war French specially
will perhaps become public in the
parliamentary debate that is I'M
minent. One aviator attributes the diff
ference to the fact that while the
French followed aviation as sport,
the Germans took it up seriously Tor
practical application TO the require
ments of the army. He points out that
the Germans were flying at night long
before the war began, while the
French began their nocturnal trips
only after the war was several
months old.
The same authority warns against
the assumption that the results OBJ
tanned by the French flying corps are
negligible. Whatever may be the
foundation for criticism Of this branch
of the service, he says, the results Cd
tanned in some ways have been done
far more appreciable than what the
Germans have done He recalls that
