BOYS MAKE BEST AIR PILOTS
More Likely to Possess Dashing and
intrepid Qualities That Make
Ideal Aviators.

War aviation, with its exceptional
dangers and its demands for supreme
courage, is peculiarly service for
volunteers. But it has been demon
strated, says st. Nicholas Magazine,
that the younger the war pilot the
more likely is. he to possess those
dashing and intrepid qualities that
make the ideal air fighter. COnSe-
quently, the government is opening
wide the door of the aviation service
for volunteers under twenty-one the
cOnscription age. The army is already
giving officers commissions to young
men nineteen years Of age, while the
navy has reduced its limit to eighteen
years. Only commissioned officers are
permitted to operate American military
airplanes, so all our fiiers will get
commissions.
Boys considerably younger than
eighteen can be thinking now Of be-
coming war pilots, with reasonable
expectations of seeing actual service.
AS long as the war goes on, the air
craft program will keep growing, since
only the declaration Of peace will JUS
tify lessening of our effort.
First, let us see the qualifications
of those suited to war aviation. The
athletic type of boy is preferred. To
have been q member of q team is
usually good indication of pluck and
persistence. A sound physique, and
good vision and hearing, are absolute
ly necessary. The ideal airman has
cool head; he Is able to act quickly IN
emergencies. 1t Is important, too, that
the war pilot be an accurate observer
and equally important that he possess
the ability to form correct judgments.

0RAT0RY TO FLOW
Speakers Bureau Of the Council OF
Defense To Arouse Greater Pa
triotism For the War-Same
Old Political Campaign.

Oratory will be in full swing in
Maryland during this month. All pre-
vious records in the number and va
riety Of speeches promise to be sur
passed. There ought not to be a dull
day or evening until after election day
on November 6. Three well-defined
campaigns will be carried % stimuli
taneously. They will be for:
The new Liberty Loan.
To arouse greater enthusiasm for
the war.
For the candidates of the two parties
and the issues behind them.
Lined up in the campaign for the
Liberty Bonds will be the same finan-
ciers and other prominent citizens who
put the first issue across three or four
months ago. They will appeal to the
public at the theaters, possibly in the
churches, and may even ask hearings
at political meetings.
The campaign to arouse greater
war spirit is in process of organization
under the direction of the speakers
bureau of the Maryland Council of De.
fense. The aim of this campaign is to
carry to every home information as
to the meaning of the war with Ger.
many, why the war was declared and
why it will be carried to victorious
close.
A list of 200 volunteer speakers,
! headed by William L. Marbury, has
! been arranged. The pastors of 200
churches in the city have been writ.
| ten letters asking them to fix dates
for special patriotic services in their
churches to be addressed by these
men. Similar letters have been sent
| to men active in public affairs in every
quarter of the state asking them to ar.
range meetings.
At these meetings the people are to
| be shown how intimate is the connec.
| tion between their own lives and the
| war.
The campaigns of the two political
| parties will be carried on in the same
| old way. The managers of the re.
spective campaigns will enlist as many
| senators and representatives as will
| consent to speak for the candidates.

Want Good Marksmen,

At the time Of the Spanish-Ameri-
can war an expert rife shot was re-
fused enlistment as sharpshoOter
on the ground that good marksman-
ship is of no advantage on the field Of
battle. There are still some military
authorities who believe this to be the
case. They point out that when the
distance is not accurately known, the
good rifleman will be sure to miss.
while volley from poor marksmen
will cover a large area and score some
hits. Nevertheless, the policy is now
to encourage craftsmanship by every
