USED BY AVIATOR.
French Flyer Demonstrates Safety
Measure for Aviators.

With the American Army in
France, Tuesday, July 30.-Captain
Sarret, French aviator, has carried
out the first experiment on record
Of falling from a moving airplaine
with parachute.
Captain Sarret dropped 500 yards
with an umbrella twelve yards in
diameter and landed safely.
Although Captain Sarret's leap
was made at height of 500 meters,
it is declared there is no obsticle
to jumping greater distance, since
the papachute has an even better
chance to open. When successful
the employment of parachutes will
save the lives of many aviators.
Airman will be able to leave their
flaming machines and will not meet
death as did Major Raoul Lufberry
on May 10.

TT was In a hut at one of the training schools
In France. y He was a non-commissioned
i officer. He had been in France for eight
months, and now was back from the front as
an instructor. He hadn't seen a girl of his own
kind, a girl like his sisters, for weeks.
And there she stood behind the canteen
counter in this big, roomy, comfortable hut.
He bought a bar of chocolate. Then he drifted
over to the group around the piano. Presently
he went back to the canteen for a package of
cigarettes. He strolled to the reading table and
leafed over a magazine. Again he returned-thls
time for a cake of soap and some tooth-paste.
