CHIVALRY OF ARMY.

London, Nov. 20-"The Chivalry OF

upon the British air forces BY Premier
Lloyd George in tribute he paid to
them in a recent speech in the House
of Commons. The, premier wass NOV
ing vote of thanks to the British
armies and navy. OF the aviation
service he said:-
The heavens are their battlefelds,
they are the cavalry Of the clouds
High above the squalor and the mud,
so high in the armament that they
are not visible from earth. they fight.
out the eternal issues of right and.
wrong. Their struggles there by day
and night are like a Miltonic con-
fict between the winged hosts of
light and darkness.
They fight the foe high up and
they fight him low down, they skim
like swallows along the ground, at
lacking armed men in their trenches.
They scatter infantry on the march
and destroy conveys Every fight IL
a romance, every record is an epic.
They are the knights of the war,
without fear and without reproach.
They recall the old legend Of chivalry,
not merely by the power Of their In
dividual exploits. but by the nobility
of their spirit, and among the null
titude Of heroes we must continuously
thank the chivalry of the Army"

suit of breaking down of his mental
alertness.
