MEN SIG Mn G UP
FOR AIR SERVICE
Recruiting Detachment to Rev
main in Burlington Another
Day and Exhibition to Be
Given This Evening-PrOs.
pective Landing Examined

Col. John d. Carmody and his air serv<
ice recruiting detachment will remain ID
Burlington one day more. This will give
an opportunity to get all their equipment
overhauled and see that everything is in
frst-class condition before their leave,
and will also give a further opportunity
for those desiring more information
about the air service to apply for such In
formation in person Colonel Carmody
stated last evening that repair work on
mis- motor generator, with which his
searchlights and other electric equipment
are operated. is not yet completed, and
ne has decided to keep his detachment in
the city to-day in order 20 have the work
completed here. The detachment will leave
for Middlebury early Friday morning.
It was because the motor generator was
/ still in the process of repair that 1t was
not possible to give the exhibition OF
equipment which had been planned for last
/ evening This exhibition will surely be
given this evening for it is practically
certain that the motor generator will be
finished by that time. Another band con-
cert will be given this evening, also. pre-
cedng the exhibition Of equipment.
/ There was good crowd out last eve-
ming to see the air service equipment in
parade up Church street, and also to hear
the band concert by the air service detach-
ment band, which was given in City Hall
Park from 80 to nine o'clock. Many IA
Vorable comments We're heard in regard
to this concert, and the pubic will be glad
10 learn that another concert Will be given
this evening.
Colonel Carmody states that he has al
ready signed up a number OF men for the
air service since arriving in Burlington
and that he has had n large number Of
Inquiries, a goodly number of which he
expects to come TO something definite. In
fact. recruiting prospects look very good
in this section.
Yesterday afternoon Colonel Carmody
visited Fort Ethan Allen and later he
took II look al the lot near the grounds
of the Gun club which are being consid-
cred rs n prospective municipal landing
field for airplanes. Colonel Clrmody said
last evening thar he considered this loca-
ton one we'll fitted for this purpose, pro-
vided il can be fixed up little Every
| live city, thinks the colonel, should have
a municipal landing place for airships.
Burlington is taking the right course in
getting into the game early, when, other
progressive cities like Boston Portland.
! indianapolis, etc. are preparing fields.
