After the ceremony the bride and
groom went in an auto out to the
home of the groom's father at Lynne,
where they enjoyed a wedding dinner.
In the evening they returned to the
brides home and enjoyed a wedding
supper.

NOTHING WASTED
BY BRITISH IN
AERO SERVICE

LONDON, July 27.-The world Is
told vaguely that the daily cost of
the war in Great Britain is, roughly,
eight millions. There are whispers,
equally vague, of waste and want
Of proper economy In all the services.
It Is only fair that the inquirer
should know something OF the care
full, prodigiously careful, planning
that is practiced to avoid waste in
the royal air force, for example. In
this service everything must pc rig
idly accounted for, and waste Is q sin
that Is heavily penalized.
Suppose a pilot has the bad luck
to damage his machine badly. In q
layman's eye, probably. that machine
would seem "done for" and OF no
method in the r. A r. The squad
ron's technical adviser" IL sent for.
He salves the instruments, including
the watch. The engine is removed
from the debris and, es often hap
pens, II apparently serviceabIe, Is re-
tested or repaired. as the case may
be- II really irreparablo damage has
been done, any disable spare parts,
down to the least significant nut or
bolt, are salvaged, and not till then
Is the whose consigned to the SCRAP
heap-not the rubbish heap.
The scrap heap Is sold to the scrap
buyers to be melted down and turned
to further account In the form of
other munitions of war.
The aeroplane itself Is scrupulously
overhauled. Sometimes there Is moth
ing salvable. owing to IRE, but any
spars or struts that can be used, or
aileron or elevator, are removed
from the wreckage and live to fly
again.
The recent great studies In aviation
have produced a small army Of men
whose minds are concentrated upon
producing the highest possible eff
cheney in machines with the minimum
Of expenditure in experiment. Before
the war the interchangeability OF
planes was unknown. Now It II COM
common.
Both main and lower planes are
often suitable for more than one
type OF machine-an enormous saw
ing in pr aduction-and' different types
OF propelisrs are also available for
different types OF machines.
This Is hrst-class economy, and the
list might be extended wholesale in
a larger survey of output of the r. A.
F. Nothing Is waste: everything IL
checked and counter-checked.

HUMPHREYS MEN
! LACK TRANSIT TO
PLEASURE RESORTS

coming back to camp with heads up,
cheerful and q grin on their faces,
ready for the next weeks grind, the
men who make the uncomfortable
trip arrive back at camp sweaty and
50 utterly weary that they swear
they will never make the trip again.
The Inauguration the latter part of
this week of train service between
camp and Accotink, Va, offers no So
luton OF the problem, for the double
reason that the director general Of
military railroads will not allow any
passenger trains to run over the line,
and the fact that the train service
from Accotink to Washington is very
poor and out-of-the-way, only few
trains making the stop.
Men Must Relax.
It is considered essential to keep
ing up the morale of the men that
they should get some recreation, and
they cannot get any real rest or
change of scene IL they have to
spend all their time in camp.
What we need Is a boat" declared
Major John z. Harris. camp adjutant,
in discussing the situation with The
Times correspondent
Apparently that is the only solution
Of the problem, and there are some
difficulties in the way of the inauEu-
ration of a boat service between the
landing at Belvoir, near Camp Humph-
ries and Washington, but they do not
appear to be insuperable, as Ii merely
involves the spending OF about $1,000
or SO by the Government in widening
the channel and providing q larger
wharf for a steamboat landing.
There is no wharf at Belvoir," ex-
planned Superintendent F. Mertens, 1r,
of the steamer Charles Manchester,
when interviewed today by The
Times correspondent on the question
of providing transportation for the
soldiers. There is plenty of water,
but when the boat goes in IT has to
back out The channel Is long and
narrow, so that IL the wind IL blow
ing we have to remain at the dock or
run the risk OF going aground.
IF it hadn't been for that fact. the
would have taken over
the Macalester months ago. We ran
the Manchester in there one time not
long ago with about $50 officers
aboard, but we had to back out with
serious danger OF grounding. We do
haul 600 to 500 soldiers down the river
to Marshall Hall every day or 50, and
a small boat meets them there and
ferries them across to Belvoir. The
can haul 1900 passengers
at a trip. and between noon and 0
o'clock Saturday night we could haul
3. 900 to Washington II the channel
is widened and a more adequate wharf
built"
