Martial Ardor In
Germany Supplanted
By Marital Zeal

New York, Nov. 20.-Martial ar
dor has been supplanted by marital
zeal in Germany. This is evidenced
by the advertising columns OF Ger
man newspapers received here. Mat
rimonial "ads' cover entire pages
and are inserted by people of all
ages and walks OF life.
4 peculiar feature Of these adver-
tisements is that many make appeals
for husbands or wives for relatives.
Parents. brothers, sisters and even
friends OF those who seek mates
invite correspondence from those
matrimonially inclined. War in
valids, wealthy physicians, manu-
iacturcrs and rich widows are
among those who resort to publ
city.

AV|ATORS LEARN
E, HOW To FLY IN
F ORMA TITO n

DALLAS, Texas, June 19.-The avi-
atoTs have given Texas another spec
| tacle. Formation flying which now
is being practiced in all the avia-
ton camps, is so different, so impress
sive and so thrilling to witnesses that
it has overcome the ennui with which
the average citizen has viewed a sky
| flecked with individual aviators, and
the epidemic of "arched neck" which
was common when the aviators first
came south to practice, again threat
ems.
There is something about the ap-
pearance of airplanes in formation,
each flyer keeping an exact distance
from the others, that impresses- one
with the feeling that these men &C
tually have control of the air. The
single airplane may respond to con-
ditions in the air, rising and falling
to take advantage of the atmospheric
situation, but in formation flying each
must maintain his proper place, and
the sight of a fleet of machines, fly
ing in a triangle or in a square, is
the cause of a realization that the con-
quest of the air has advanced to a
point heretofore unrealized.
The formation flying usually starts
of Oh ns,y
ian dinner hour, when the air is gen
orally quiet. This adds to the worries
of the housewife because when there
is a fleet of war planes just over
and soaring perfect unison, no nor

ment in the process of developing
American aviators, would startle the
statisticians, housewives say.
Most of those who are now perfect
ing their skill in formation flying are
"bombers." Aviators on this duty
must travel in groups, guards flying at
the side, before, behind and above the
planes which carry the explosives to be
dropped on the enemy The leader
usually flies much higher than the
others in the party, not only for the
advantage of the additional vision his
height will give, but also so as to be
able to dart down upon any enemy
plane which undertakes to break up
the party.
The scout planes travel alone and
the aviators who will adhere to this
branch of the service are not, so much
