LOOK UP!

Air rights! What rights has a man in the air
over his house, his barn or his office or apartment
building?
No, this isn't really foolish question.
Air laws are going to be necessary right soon.
It used to be said that the landowner owned
down to the middle of the earth and up to the
ether-belt.
Passenger airships will soon be travelling the
skies of all nations. One such carried 40 passen-
gers over London the other day. You'll be trav-
cling through the air yourself by and by.
1t will be attractive travelling. No ruts in the
air. No mud splashing. No running off the rails.
No holding up one airship because another is late.
Fas ttime-l00 miles an hour And all that.
Airplanes will need definition by statute. Pilots,
airlines will need licenses Terminal privileges
twill be valuable. Laws for their regulation will be
necessary. Rights of passengers will need con-
sideration Rates of fare will call for legal enact
ments Air police will be needed by large cities
and for proper patrol Of country districts
Thus will grow up new body of law, calling
for new experts in it's definition Air laws ought
to be made and administered by persons having
some knowledge of aeronautics. Schools will need
textbooks on aeronautcs as they now need revised
biographies and new manuals of political econ
omy. Colleges will need courses in air laws to pre-
pare air lawyers and air judges for the new prob
lens.
long look ahead, this? Not so long, perhaps.
This is the New Age when conception and execu-
ton merge, when ideas born full grown as ma
tons are born in day.

thoroughly broken in. Change off oc-
casionally. A good stunt is to walk in
water for a few minutes. being careful
that the water is not more than two
inches deep. This will make the leather
pllable. Then walk around for an hour
or so, giving the shoes a chance to dry
while wearing them. This will mold
the leather to fit the foot. After taking
them off, get a little neatsfoot oil and
rub the shoes thoroughly Do not use
the oil too freely because it will cause
perspiring OF the feet.
Socks.
Remember that all socks must be
made of wool. Wear the heavy sock
1t is more comfortable and does not
wrinkle as easily as the lighter one. 1t
will last longer and absorb perspiration
freely. Also be very careful to change
your socks as often as possible. Do not
wear stiff or sweaty socks.
Keep your toe nails cut. 1t is best
to have them close and square. Be
very careful in cutting the toe nails
not to remove too much Of the side as
this will cause %ingrowing toe nails and
you will suffer in consequence.
Ne careful to wash the feet every
night If there are no facilities for do
ing this, rub them well with a damp
cloth, finishing up with a dry cloth,
Continue this rubbing for about ten
minutes until the feet glow. Before
going on a march rub the feet with
whale oil or grease. Be careful not TO
use grease containing salt, as this will
%irritate the skin. II no grease or oil
IS handy, use hard soap. 1t is best to
rub the soap on the socks.
BE very careful in opening blisters.

scription of the American Springfield
rifle and the English Lee-Enfield rifle
may prove useful.
Although the American Springfield
rifle is a wonderful shooting instru-
ment. many think it is too delicate for
trench work. When you arrive in

equipped with the Lcc-Entleld trench
rifle. This IS a very strong, handy
and useful firearm, we'll able to with

The American Springfield.
1t is known as the United State,
magazine rifle. 1903, calibcr 30. It,
length IS 4j2l plus inches, weighs
without the bayonet 500 pounds and
with the hayonet about one pound more.
1t Is sighted up to ESQ yards, the cx-
IRENE range being over 5000 yards, that
is, II the rifle when fired is elevated at
an angle OF forty-five degrees. The
bullet has a muzzle velocity Of 200
feet per second and is fired by a charge
OF smokclesS powder. The bullet is OF
cupro-nickel with a lead core and is
pointed. The magazine holds five
rounds and is loaded with a clip con

Care of Rifle.

the rifle muzzle down. After return

dry the rifle, especially the bore. A
rifle cannot be dried with an oily rag.
because oil and water do not mix. After
you have thoroughly dried your rifle
