Before leaving on long-distance

them the detailed course from the air.
drome to their objective.
By means of a small balloon, whose
speed direction and height is recorded
by an instrument on the ground, the
force and direction of the wind at diff
ferent attitudes is discovered, and the
compass course, allowing for wind
drift, is marked beside the course on
the map. The compass course for the
retarn journey is also marked. The
speed of the machine is calculated, and
on the line of the course series of
points is marked, showing where the
machine should be every ten minutes,
thus enabling the airman to check his
progress and to know his approximate
position If he gets lost.
He watches the country below fol
landmarks. He sees by his map that
a river should appear in few min
utes. His watch shows that he has
been flying 40 minutes, and near the

and sees in the moonlight silver

TOO MUCH LIKE KAISER BILL
Ex-Sheriff of New York Town Has
Made 1t Plain That "Pctsdam
Points" Don't Go.

Ex-Sheriff James Merritt, whose
mustache grows as a sheriff's mustache
should, has established a mustache
censorship and outlawed the Potsdam
points, according to Port Chester cor
respondent of the New York Tribune.
Until few days ago scarcely an
hour went by that the argus-eyed for
mer sheriff patrolling the streets did
not find at least one sky-pointing mus
tuche of the kind made notorious by
Wild Bill Hohenzollern. The tactics
of the former sheriff upon spotting
such a one were as tactful and as un-
varying as those of collecting agency.
Placing himself in front of the wear
er, he would fix pale and unappreci-
ative eye upon the offending mustache
and stare and stare. Either the staree
wilted or became curious or belliger-
ent. Former Sheriff Merritt was ready
for either result.
At the first evidence of embarraSs-
ment he would nod routely toward the
nearest barber shop, follow his victim
until he entered and remained on post
outside until he emerged without his
l'mustache. If the mustached one in
quired civilly what was wrong, the
former sheriff would start as If awak-
ened from n daze and explain that he
thought he was confronting his old
friend, Pewter Cup Bill" the yachts
man. If the recipient of his stare
wanted to know what was biting the
former sheriff, Merritt went just as far
with the inquisitive one as was neces-
sary to persuade him into a neat coat
Aof IAther.
