AN AERIAL AMBULANCE
In Us on Aviation Field at Lake
Charles, louisiana.

In Us on RVidtion rleld at Lake
Charles, louisiana.
Lake Charles. La. July 1S-An
aerial ambulance assigned to Gerst-
ner field near here has made its first
run in actual service and has fulfilled
the expectations of officers who advo.
Gated its adoption.
A lieutenant at target practice at
the aerial gunnery school about 200
miles from the flying field recently,
descending at terrific speed from a
high altitude and firing his machine
gun at target placed on the surface
OF the lake, failed to uatten out SUI.
ticientiy when he completed his dive
and crashed into the water. He was
rescued Immediately, but while not
seriously injured was badly bruised
and shaken up, necesitating a few
days confinement to quarters.
The round trip by automobile from
Gerstner field to the gunnery school
consumes from an hour and a half
10 two hours over a rough and round
about road. Instead of telephoning
for car, the aerial ambulance was
ordered.
Fortyfive minutes later it had
made the 40-mile flight from Gerstner
field to the. lake and return, and the
injured aviator was in his quarters
receiving medical attention.
The flying ambulance is described
as large biplane with the usual seat
for the pilot and an adjustable or re-
Ginning chair for the patient. To dis.
tinguish It, large Red Cross is
painted on the wings.

Bees Exesiaht.

Odor is given flowers to attract in
sects, 1t may be, but bright colors are
not, as it is conceded that Insects are
very near-sighted and can make out
objects clearly but sh feet away. and
scientists state that bees, wasps and
hornets can see but two feet clearly.
When a boy the writer knows they
could see his two feet clearly lat least
a hundred feet away, also tnefemain-
der of his body was clearly discerned
at the same respectable" distance

PropeIIers Bun Tandem.

Experiments made in boat propul-
sion with one propeller, one behind the
other, show that but little increased
speed is obtained by the arrangement;
and rotating the two screws in oppo-
site directions, either at the same or
different speeds, has little effect on
the results. It is, however, claimed
that the double screw gives better con-
troll of the vessel.

Ar. .AphorIsm for the Day.

Painting is not done for exhibitions;
refined work is smothered and shout
ers" come off better. One is
only great painter on condition OF
being master workman. A
fine picture, of which one admires the
effect at distance, ought equally to
