This Is one of the numerous avin-

cans are receiving their finishing
touches as flyers. When they leave
here for the battle front in France
they know all that can be taught
about flying. Only the school of ex-
perience can supply the postgraduate
course that makes Guynemers and
Lufberys.
The airdrome is set in one of those
beautiful spots that one calls to mind
from classic pictures of English land
scapes. IT (. early in June and the
great level field that stretches away in
front of the hangers Is like a rich
green carpet. Beyond there Is a wood
land, and In the distance is range
of low hills whose smooth contour
recalls to Western Americans the foot
hills of California.
