 The last time l wrote you | was awaiting my orders They finally came, assigning me to the engineer officers school at Boston Tech. There l went through stiff course in all the phases of acronautical engineer ing, and was graduated and received my commission I was then assigned to the Le Rhono rotary motor factory al SWissyale, Pa, just outside of Pittsburgh, where l specialized on the Le Rhonc for six weeks, studying Il in every detail and running numer- OuH tests I'll mention one test thlt w&s run, in which the motor ran con. tinuously for sixtv-four hours with out even miss. That k considered quite record for rotary. The '.c Rhone is similar to the GnOme, but much better motor It's nine-cylin- der of so and 110 h. D.
 From the Le Rhone factory have been sent here to Dorr field, which is an advanced pursuit field Here have charge of the inspection depart me1t, having 150 ships to look after, most of them being of the single scout type The work is very interesting and I surely do enjoy it. This field has the highest percentage of ships in the air of any field in the country. the average percentage being 96 per cent of the machines flying every day. The air is surely thick with ships V hen they all get up, and when they start stunting it's some sight When I first came here l surely got a large and heavy dose of stunting. The sec ond day here went up and got in about two hours good flying. The next day the same pilot took me up, and when we reached an elevation high enough he said We would try few stunts. We'll he sure did, Started to loop and when he did six loops we bounced into tight spiral. We'll by that time pretty near had q bellyful. but We then ZoOmed up little higher and he threw her into q tail spin Well. then | concluded, here goes nothing. But by the time I thought il was all over the ground for me. he threw her out of the spin and kicked her into a split" A few of these. and then we came back. But had very little pep" left when we finally landed, Now I've gotten quite used to 1t. and next week I start talk ing flying instruction. When the war is over I'll be able to look into the aerial mail route proposition in Alaska Ought to be n fair opportu- nifty, don't you think?

ROLSHEyIKI STILL HOPEFUL

Amsterdam, Feb 25.-Still hopeful that the Red Guards and workers will rally to real defense of the threatened capital, the Bolsheviki government has named a military declaration. Un- limited powers have been given Gen. eral Bruiivitch, hitherto assistant to Ensign Krylenko. The latter has hoen removed as Bolsheviki general issimo, for the reason, it is believed, he despaired of all chance to save the capital.
 lncensed over Krylenko's pessimis- tic account at the last meeting of the Soviet executive council, a socialist tried to kill him. Krylenko was wounded in the arm by a bullet. The would-be assassin was arrested.
 To General Brujivitch now falls the duty of speedily bringing order out of chaos and organizing the defense of Petrograd,
