listen, my dears, to this woeful tale, and
- then don't tell me that poor boy didn't
have hard luck You see he wanted in the
worst way to join the aviation corps, and
being possessed of determination and
tenacity of purpose, was bound he'd get
in somehow.
Now he had heard about those strenu'
Gus examinations he would have to take
and the tests he would have to stand So
after reasoning the thing all out for him
self he came to this decision:
1T appears to me that the main thing
i ! ought not to do is get dizzy"
i And he proceeded to map out for HIM
1 self a nice original little diet which. II he
\ followed, he had hopes would make him alb
solutely dizzyproof.
Well, he did follow it, and for days and
| days it was:
Mother we won't eat any of this" OF
/ mo l can't have that"
At last he announced his readiness tc
| meet any kind of "exam" they choose tc
offer him. So joyfuly he Jared forth one
1 morning but, good night when he came
| home again! 1t was not with the glat
/ news that he was now an all-importan
i member of the aviation corps No, twas
/ quite the other way For they hadn'
Il jumped at the chance of accepting him
after all the training he had put himsel
through, too. They had refused him; hat
/ even pronounced him abnormal" for yol
see, any normal person is supposed to sc
dizzy. What a blow to that bright idet
of his. And think of all the delicious
things he had denied himself when h
l might have eaten every one
But he is a good sport, and, believe me
that didn't stop him from enlisting il
another branch of the service. He's II
khaki this very minute, and here's lucl
