Are Avjators Born?

''There was a time when 1t was held that man must be especially born for aeronautie duties" writes Henry Woodhouse. vice president of the Aerial League of America, in Every body's.
 Experience had brought out the fact that the average young man can make an excellent aviator. Cap tain Guynemer, Major Bishop, Cap tain William Thaw, Captain Ball of the Lafayette escadrille, and practical ly all the famous ayiators were not men who impressed anybody with be- ing different from other young men.
 Of the thousands of allied aviators there are probably not 300 men who had seen more than d few months of military service before joining the air service. Most of them had never seen any military service.
 Tn planning an organization for the selection and training of aviators, the aircraft board and signal corps of the United States have had to prepare to deal entirely with men who had never seen military service, as other countries have done.'

Shipbuiding Program ReneWS Interest in the Performances
 of Old Vessels.
PROUD OF OUR FAST SHIPS
Clippers That Outsailed Steamers Showed Us How to Gain Mastery of the Sea-Some Remark
 able Voyages.

Washington. = Much interest has been shown by the public in the United States shipping boards program of building many fast vessels for carry Ing supplies to France during the war and to transport ffeights, mail and passengers as the vanguard of the great merchant marine that is to be maintained when peace returns.
 National pride, say shipping experts here, has always found strong expres- sion over the ability of the United States to produce fast ships. It is therefore nothing new for Americans to watch the products of their ship yards with swelling breasts.
 Half century and more ago the whole country took pride in the rec ords of American clipper sailing ships which led the merchant fleets of the world.
 American shipyards then produced vessels which made long voyages at an average speed equal to that of the steamships of their time. The sailing records they established were never equaled by the ships of other nations.
 These vessels were the direct prod uct of daring experiments by Yankee builders, who were never content to rest on their laurels, which were many. Each year they excelled their previ- ous efforts, turning out flyers that challenged the attention of the mari time world.
 The Flying Cloud.
 One of the most notable American vessels in the heyday of the clipper ships was the Flying Cloud of Boston, which in 1851 made the run from New York to San Francisco, around Cape Horn, in So days, 21 hours, establish ing a record that has stood since. On its voyage the ship sailed 374 miles

Samson listened to q woman, cut off his hair, and lost literally. the sinews of war. Now cOmeth modern wom- an, marking to the call of Uncle Sam S sons, and cutteth off her hair to pro- vide said sinews. History simply sets new music to old words or vice versa. The photograph shows Florence Mans field, Boston's patriotic daughter, ready to snip off her lovely hair to provide material for rope to be used in the making of submarine tiller. Her patriotic impulse was original, spring ing from the need of rope in the navy as outlined to her by friends in the United States Marine corps. She has very long tresses, and she can amply in the country ought to sacrifice a lock of hair. She believes there is an- other use for hair more important than wearing it herself-that is for one of our fighting men to wear it, in wrist band or ring Then, when our boys get real lonesome lover there" all they have to do is to take one long, finger ing look at that strand of hair, and as they gaze, the winsome face of the girl back home will rise before them, and all will be right again Now, how about it girls? Who will volunteer for such a worthy cause?

JUST A DUB, BUT-.
He Had at Least One Good Deed
 to His Credit.
And St. Peter Recognized His Fitness to Enter Into Everlasting Joy While Others Less Worthy
 Were Sent Below.

As standards are on this earth he had not amounted to much.
 He had lived, laughed, loved, sinned and died in the common way of all. He had made few friends, and Il few enemies, but he had come and passed as one of the many. His had been common toll and he had done it in the ordinary way.
 And so when his soul at last stood before the Great White Gate there was no stir among the saints to re- ceive it.
 What have you to say for your self?" said St. Peter, sternly, but not unkindiy.
 Nothing replied the soul, timidly.
 Nothing" exclaimed St. Peter. "Did you never get your name in the papers,"
 Never I was never considered very clever down there"
 "oh. Didn't make fine speeches then?"
 No. I couldn't talk on my feet"
 "I see. Didn't 90 to church very often either, did you?'
 No. l was often very tired and on Sundays I slept lite in the morn incs and played with the kiddies the rest of the day"
 You died in your bed, while thou sands of your fellowmen died on the battlefield, fighting for their coun- try"
 "Yes. When the war came I was beyond the age of enlistment"
 Well, can't you think of one thing that you did that might recommend you for admission here?"
 I'm afraid not All my life I was just dub"
 Just dub, eh ?'
 Yes. Never did shine at anything. Just plodder, trying hard all the time to get somewhere, but never actually arriving. And yet"
 Yet what"
 If you will permit me to say it. during the great war down there I didn't force committee to spend two or three hours trying to convince me that I ought to buy Liberty bonds. l couldn't fight; couldn't be q general or captain; I didn't know enough to fill government job, but I did know 1t was every mans duty to back his country to the limit, and I bought all the Liberty bonds I could. without an argument"
 Fine" said St. Peter enthusiastical- iy, "come right on in. Did you notice crowd of fine-looking. high-stepping souls going down as you came up?"
 "Yes."
 Well that WAS bunch of loud talking rich spirits who delayed the end of the war year because they wouldn't buy Liberty bonds until they were convinced that their purchases were absolutely necessary. They're going to get taste of trench life un- der Old Satan in the financial slack er's department"

The Oreadnought made many fast passages, however, in the total of sey- enty to eighty credited to her. On sev= eral occasions she maintained uni form speed of 91a miles an hour from shore to shore. Her best eastward voy- age was 13 days s hours from port to port, and her average speed for Allan tic voyages was higher, probably. than that of any other sailing ship
 The record of clipper ship for crossing the Atlantic belongs, how. ever. to the Red Jacket of New York, which crossed in 1854 from Sandy Hook to the entrance of the River Mersey in 13 days and hour. The best passage in the opposite direction was made in 1860 by the ship Andrew Jackson, 15 days from the Mersey to New York.

Medf0rd Considered
For Aviation Camp

Medford is leaving no stone un-
turned to secure an aviation training
camp at that city, and during the
past week Emil Mohr, proprietor OF
the Hotel Medford, who has been
in communication with Senator
Chamberlain in regard to the matter,
received a letter from the senator in
which the latter enclosed communi-
cation from Adjutant General H. T..
Mccain relative to the matter In
which he states that at the present
time it has not been determined to
establish further aviation fields.
Arrangements have been made, he
claims, for the inspection by a board
Of officers now on the Pacific coast
of sites for permanent air defenses
of both Medford and Hermiston as
possible sites for further aviation ac-
tivities. Should it be decided to ex-
tend the activities of the aviation
section and build additional training
camps in the far west, the adjutant
general states, these locations will
be given careful consideration.

Cvril Maude Comes
To Page Tuesday

Cyril Maude, who appears at the
Page, April 30 in Grumpy" is thus
spoken of in the San Francisco Ex-
aminer: Cyril Maude came back
to the Columbia last night with his
famous title role characterization Of
the lrascible but lovable old English
barrister, Mr.. Andrew Bullivant, in
Grumpy
Last night was the opening salvo
in 'Grumpy's' American campaign;
for we are at liberty to use military
language since Grumpy came to the
footlights at the end of the third act
and made a pretty little speech and
assured us he is our Anglo-Saxon ally
and means to do his bit to help win
the war over there.
"Maude is unusually well support
ed by his aides, of whom Miss Dor
othy Cummins is charmingly rip
ping, to borrow Ernest's line, and
Betty Murray is unusually nice to
look at. In the mems roles, Jarvis
is exceedingly good.
