FACTS ABOUT OUR NAVY
HOW Vd0y AO0lds accidents.

But do you have a list OF things
that might happen? And do you keep
that list in sight2 I've a ten spot
SAYS you don't
In the navy we do. Ammunition
and guns are. Of course, the dangerous
part OF our equipment, almost of our
lives. After years of experience and
many accidents we have been able to
eatalog all the possible misfortunes
that might befall a loading crew. We
have devised a complete set OF in
structions which, if properly carried
out, constitute a stitch in time against
all such miss stitches as fire. explo
sion, and destruction OF the ship.
This list is called the warship's

Almost the first safety order is that
they all shall be printed and posted
in every part Of the turrets and near
all guns. Men must know them back

emergency arises no instant shall be
lost remembering just what to do.
The action must be a reaction: that

flame shoots uD. each member of thh
station and duty as il by instinct. It's
like baseball. The infielder picks a
red hot grounder out Of the dust and
shoots it to second without stopping
TO figure out the play. He knows
the game so well that he meets a
crisis without conscious thought. A
gunner douses his broken powder bag
in the same quick way.
Safety orders are Of two kinds,
preventive and stOp-it-ive. The
former discourage the devils

YOUNG AV|ATORS
MAK|NGFL|GHTS
AFTER z WEEKS
-W.a.S-
(By Associated Press)

Mather Field, Sacramento, Cal,
July 10.-With but little more than
two weeks experience in flying, the
young aviators at Mather Field now
are learning solo flying. At first
their flights were made as Observers
that is they sat beside the instructor
and studied the mechanism and con-
troll of the airplanes, but never did
they have anything to do with the op-
GRAFTON of the machines.
Now it is different. True, the
young birdmen do not soar alone, but
they are proud to be able to manipu-
late the levers that control the big
flying machines. Their confidence is
augmented, too, with the presence of
the ever-alert instructor, who sits
ready to take charge if anything goes
a bit awry.
Accidents at this field, thus far,
are nil. AS one Of the young stars
said recently:
| Accidents? Why, there amt nc
such animal"
Perhaps the climate has much te
do with the splendid record thus far
held by the field, although the ex-
perts say that this field is but one
small unit out of many throughout
the country-and that naturally, in
proportion, the percentage of acci.
dents is small.
But the cadets have been heard tt
remark on the ever present ambulance
and stretcher men when they are try.
ing out their aerial streets. The lads
think the presence of such CHASTITY
paraphernalia is a bit suggestive.
