Learning TO Fly

Sidney Murphy, who is student
aviator at Mather's field near Sac.
ramento, Calf, has this to say in a
letter to his uncle, j. H. Ridenour:
"i'll tell you few things we do.
We're up at 5 o'clock and at 5:l5
we have calisthenics until $50. We
then clear up the barracks and have
breakfast and at 6:20 we start fly
ing. We are divided into fights
with about five men to a fight and
we each get about an hour of flying
daily. At ii o'clock we drill until
2 and then have dinner. We have
classes in military gunnery, wireless
and airplane motors during the af-
ternoon and at 6 o'clock we have
supper. We are then free until
9:l5, when we have to go TO bed.
There Is a Y. M. G. A. at the post
and we generally have some sort of
entertainment there every night.
TITS awfully hot here and very
dusty, but nice in the air. The fly
ing is divided into stages. First is
the first duel, then the first solo;
then the second duel and second
solo; then acrobatics, cross country
flying and night flying. went up
alone yesterday and today and II
certainly Is great to drive il alone.
We travel 80 TO 100 miles per hour.
I'VE had a lot of nose dives, tail
spins and turns and loops Of all
sorts the other day. II certainly
gives you a kick. We have very
few accidents merely a few ma
chimes broken now and then, with
no one hurt, though. Flying Is not
dangerous II you keep your head"

"MAKING A FRONT"

The Scottish philosopher wht
writes the Bystander page for Up
to-The-Times magazine recently un
burdened himself of the following
bit of wisdom, which We regard as
worthy Of the wider circulation
afforded by the columns of the
Weston Leader;
1T is not the wheat crop, good
or bad; the weather, good or bad; ;
business or the government, good
or bad, that sets many well mean
ing people back-so far back that
their troubles are many and they
are always in the soup up to and
over their ears. The main seat of
most of the trouble for most of the
people in trouble comes from the
fact that they want to stand before
the world for other than what they
really are. If men living in the
towns have an income Of $50 per
month there is no way they can get
by if they live at the rate of 5000
per month. Then for wheat farm
ers as they are known in this coun-
try; those who are never on their
farms; those who maintain two or
three residences and are always
speculating in wildcat investments,
are never a very good bet and gen.
orally experience many troubles in
the long run. 1t is all right for
people to be ambitious to at all
times put their best foot forward.
20 to speak; but men and women
who deliberately set out to live the
ives Of four-fushers are both a
and joke; in the end they
fool none 50 much as they fool
themselves"

An Impression oi France

In the course of an interesting
letter from France To n friend in
Weston. Sergeant Earl G. Olsen Of
the Twelfth Balloon Company
writes;
"We had splendid weather al.
most all the way across. but owing
to the size Of the convoy and our
route Of travel We were longer in
making the trip than Il would ordi-
narily take. II became pretty mon.
otonous and the sight Of land was
q great relief.
"Never at any time were we
conscious Of being in danger and
the trip was more like a vacation
than anything else.
THE place where We disembark-
ed is certainly funny. Everything
is so peculiar when viewed In com.
parison with what we are accus.
toned to. Miniature railways and
street cars are seen. and wagons
consisting mostly Of two wheeled
carts and they drive their teams
with one horse ahead Of the other
instead Of abreast.
Nearly everybody We saw wore
wooden shoes. and the style of
clothing is at least two decades old.
The people are all solidly built and
rosy cheeked-especialIy the chill
drcn--and there are more children
than anything else.
''It's difficult to imagine in this
day and age that the community
we are now in should be- so back.

zation. Just think Of going to n
city well or pump for all the water.
or to q community wash house TO
wash your clothes! They must have
discarded the rubbing board. for
the women get down on their knees
and use rock and board paddle
in washing.
"Their cities are cleaner than the
average American city, however,
and the houses are all built Of ma
sonry and concrete, with the pref
tiest of gardens around them. II
was sure a beautiful country we
marched through. We are now 10.

THE CREDIT SYSTEM IS DOOMED

Revolutionary changes have beer
wrought because of the war in the
governmental, political and busines:
methods of the United States with
out materially affecting the life OF
the rural communities.
To be sure, we have watched
our young men go TO war sadly,
but yet with a feeling. of hope and
pride: we have subscribed for lib
erty bonds and war savings stamps
and given our money to various
war activities; we have read about
and marveled over what the govern
ment is doing in the way Of train
ing and transporting troops, manu-
featuring munitions, building ships
and airplanes and controlling the
railroads and other public utilities;
we have in a small way been incon-
venienced by the food regulations.
But in general the community has
pursued its usual path in the usual
manner, undisturbed by any radical
departure from its accustomed
mode of being and doing.
But a change is at hand which
affects US vitalIy and will inevitably
shock us into rude awakening.
We refer to the curtailment Of
credits-a radical departure which
is entering upon and transforming
the entire business life Of the ma
tion, and to which the rural dis
tricts must conform.
The entire commercial trend is
now in the direction Of short-time
,redit, with view to the conserya-
ion Of capital needed by the gov
,rnment. The manufacturer feels
he pressure and passes the buck"
o the jobber. The jobber in turn
iends out the S. 0. S. to the retail
r.. who thereupon must insist upon
settlements from his GUS
omers. Whereas, it has long been
he custom in a community like
Weston to have an annual settle.
