The r flying generation, tho
life ~ q pilot, may be roughly
estimated under peace conditions ~
ten years. After this time they are
only useful az instructors. the heirs
and developers Of their knowledge.
The present generation OF pilots.
wAr-trained, Is much the most I'm
the bearers of q precious knowledge
which, II lost, will take decades Of
tolls and risks. equal to those already
past, to bring It back to the same level
again. We have paid the full price for
the secrets Of the air; we must sec
that at all costs this terrible price
does not have to be paid again.
But this Is exactly the difnculty.
Every European country, your "
as we'll as mine. Is staggering under
an enormous. crushing, financial bur-
den. 1t is a bold man who proposes
to lay more on their backs. Yet It
must be done. Commercial dying is
far from being or a sound basis yet.
1t will be. and In not many years. but
for the next ten years II must be
Inursed, subventioned. Just a. were the
great Atlantic lines OF steamboats, in
their inception.
Left to itself, commercial flying. as
IL Is at present, would perhaps sink
to the level of a holiday sideshow-
nve-milc trips at so many pounds a
head. Governments must back 1t with
money and encouragement, SO that
the young pilots may not be lost TO
the art in opening up new lines n
methods for Its expansion. The coun-
try which will do this c~ourageously.
In spite OF the burden the war has
laid upon 1t. will reap an enormous
advantage.
We are going to conquer the fog

ally equipped with Herztan light
houses sending out wireless rags
which will enable the pilot to find his
bearings with relation to the ground
much as a ship does. This means
the greater and greater Information
a~lization OF flying. The war has left
us with the beginnings Of this. as well
as the elements for meeting the lesser
problem of the policing of the skies.
Such an ordinary difficulty as SNUG

Scranton, Pa, Aug. 1.-The dyna-

the work OF Tony Costino, 16, who
sought revenge because his sweet
heart had Tilted him, according to
a confession made by Tony today to
the Dunmore police.
Tony declared that when Josephine
became cold toward him he decided to
show her. He implicated his IA

Yet I am encouraged to say some
thing about the future Of flying when

I was a convinced believer In the

that I had suddenly become a crank
Now. wen in the short course OF ten
years. not only have the things saw
in the future come true. but events
have run far beyond what I dared to
say.
1t Is for something graver than a
mere pride Of Cassandra that I re-
member that in 1910 I tried to per-
suade the French government to pro.
vide for the construction OF LOCO

course Of the war might have beer
very different.
The conquest OF the air has been the
continued solution Of insoluble prob

to get height. speed. security. AL
these have been successfully solved
giving ground to q group OF equall,
tnsoluble ones. The greatest and most
fundamental Of these Is how to pass
over from war conditions to peace and
commercial flying.

OBITUARY
MRS. ALMA BYRD TURNER.

On the night of January "a. 1919,
the death angel visited the home OF
Stuck Turner and claimed his loving
wife, Alma.
She was daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. d. Byrd of Pleasant Hill.
God only let Alma live here eigh-
teen years. She was sick only one
week, having lifted a tub of water,
hurting herself just one month from
the time OF her death.
All was done that loving hands
could do but all was in vain. Jesus
wanted her to go to a better home.
Her life was so entwined about our
hearts, it seemed more than we could
bear to give her up, but>we know
she rests sweetly.
Alma leaves to mourn her death,
father. mother, husband, sisters
brother and many friends. Dear
ones don't weep, some day we will
hear the voice that called Alma home
and then we will meet this dear one
whom God has already called his
own.
A dear one from US is gone,
A face once bright is still,
She dwells with Jesus up in heaven
Where all sweet angels live.
Like flower Alma passed away,
Destroyed in all her bloom;
Waking in bright cline.
She finds no death or gloom.
Again we hope to meet you.
When the days OF life have fled,
And in heaven with joy greet you,
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Dearest loved one we have laid you
| In the peaceful graves embrace,
But your memory shall be cherished
Till we see your heavenly face.
Heaven cow retains our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps,
And the suHbeams long to linger
Where our Alma sleeps.

Her Cousin,
Mrs. Tom IRELAND.
