New York. The flight to Philadelphia,
q distance OF 1913 miles, several times
has been made with the aviator out
of sight of the ground. proving that
compass mall flights are strictly prac-
teal. Every one of our aviators has
gone into storm clouds under condi-
tions which held his machine sta
tionary over the earth or even drove
1t backward in spite of It's forward
engine speed. And yet the mail serv-
ice is great success.
II cannot say that ! see in the near
future an abandonment of railway
mail service In favor of air mail serv-
ice, but the air service Is a valuable
adjunct to the train service and for
long distances, say Of four hundred
miles or more, the air traffic can beat
the ground traffic SO badly that 1t is
possible to lose the hour or more
which at present usually must be lost
in getting the mail from the outside
landing place to the heart Of a great
city and still have an advantage on the
side of the air service.
II believe that the day Is in sight
when aircraft will be able to hover
Then landings will be possible in re-
stricted areas of large cities, or even
upon roofs. That will complete the
usefulness of aircraft for mall carry
ing purposes.
This, of course, would entail a
change OF motor principle, and that,
think. Is coming. The air motor of
the future for commercial purposes
VIII be, think, combination Of
the helicopter with the tractor. I am
informed that Curtiss already has a
device The problem is that of getting
engine weight down from two and
one-half pounds to one pound or one
and one-third pounds per horsepower.
me Hispano-Suiza motor already
achieves one horsepower on two
pounds of weight.
AT the present moment we carry
mail by air at cents per ounce, but
at this price we lose money on short
trips, because we do not have as much
as we might carry. If every plane
travelled laden to capacity we could
make money at that rate. On short
trips train service completes with US
too closely because Of the distance Of
our landing places from the hearts of
the cities in which we make deliveries
n
II believe we shall make money on
the Chicago to New York flights. BY
airline this journey is TO miles, by
train 1t is about 1000 miles. BY plane
we confidently expect to make the trip
on standard time Of about ten hours
for eighty miles an hour is not an ex-
cessive speed to expect, and that would
make the journey, starting and land
ing, in nine hours.
"Our fastest mail ship Is rated now
at 1875 miles an hour, and we have
new ones coming rated at 40 miles
an hour. These high speeds can be
attained only close to the ground
however, with the throttle wide open.

continued, you take chances in ad-

headwind or in quartering wind on
the bow. At higher attitudes, should
you find steady favoring winds, you
have other problems. Egerton. here,
has risen to $4,000 feet In regular
mail-carrying journeys. and on one
special trip rose to 1880 feet and ex-
perienced such decrease of motor
efficiency as to curiously interfere
with carrying heavy mail load:
1.-THE mechanical and physical OBJ
stacles in the way of long flight at
$4,000 feet are not insuperable, OF
course oxygen can be fed automatic
ally to both pilot and engine, but for
various reasons it Is now Impractical
to depend upon transatlantic flight
at an altitude that might insure a
rteady favoring wind.
I'm general way ! can assure you
that the transoceanic experiment Will
not be tried by the United States
Post Office Department at once. or
even In the near future, or with any
type of airplane now known to this
department., even with the assistance
of the Navy ships and the radio direc-
ton finder. Reasonable safety would
entail an expense too great for con-
temptation. 1t is n sporting, but not a
business, proposition at this stage of
airplane development.

Doesn't Like to Write Letters

Dear Cynthia-I la hesitated a long
time before writing to you, but your
advice TO others seemed b good that
IL encouraged me. I rave a friend who
formerly lived In this city. but who Is
no longer here. Fol a year n a half
before he left here he showed me a
good cal of attention, calling at least
once and sometimes twice a week.
Since he has been away he has writ
al increasingly long intervals. 1 know
he Is very busy n that he does not
write TO his own people more than he
does to me. but don't you think that
he would write to me II he really cared
for me, as he appears TO do when with
me? He has come to the city several
times and spent most of his time with
me while here and seemed to be as
fond OF me as he used to be.
Now. Cynthia, will you tell me II I
car get him to write TO me mt reason
or what shall ] do? Has he tired of
me or Is he Indifferent? MARY.
/ wouldn't let this matter OF letters
worry me. With some. Of course. II Is
an indication OF indifference. but with
the man you describe II seems to be a
mixture OF being very busy and nat
queer but true that men frequently
hate ietter-writing to such an extent
that they will not pen letters to the
girls they are most for. From your
statements l believe this man cares for
you. Do not try TO force him to write
frequently and do not answ his let

the door. Nick Carson stood on the
threshold.
A sudden feeling Of not knowing how
to cope with the situation swept over
her. but she forced herself to be un-

notice. He brought a breath of fresh air
from the cold out of doors with him'

not want to entertain NICK carson mere
tonight alone, she forced herself to think
otherwise by recalling that II was Scott
who had begun this kind of thing.
And certainly there was nothing wrong
with Nick Carson. He was the ideal
friend. No girl could fall to be glad m
proud to be seen with him. and he did
not bother her to death with silly per-
sonal compliments.
She led the way into the living room
and he followed her. She wished that II

friends. 1t suffered by comparison with
polly's. and IL was hopelessly bourgeois.
All this was quite unworthy of Ruth.
but she was struggling hard to be some
one outside Of herself, n the simple
real things of life did not mean much to
this other Ruth.
Then suddenly she remembered that
she had told Scott she couldn't go 10
the theatre eau she had made an
engagement for the evening. Suppose
Scott were to think that she hao
deliberately mad an engagement with
Nick Carson. She couldn't let him think
that. But then. of course. how would he
know IL she didn't tell him? He was or
somewhere having a good time himself.
Nick had seated himself in the one
big comfortable chair the room afforded,
and Ruth had curled herself into a

any necessity for II.
The first woman to whom I refer
