HOME SERVICE COURSE
Classes Taught During Summer to Be

A home service institute will open in the University of Alabama at Tusca- loosa on June ,. and will continue until July Is. Teachers registering for the sum- mer school course may take this home service institute and receive university credit for it. Other candidates may at- tend who, are not taking the summer school course for the purpose of the insti. tute only.
 Alabama is leading the gulf division, which is composed of Alabama Misss- sippi and Louisiana, in applications for the future programme. It is now quite as- sured that practically all counties in Ala bama will have applied for permission to extend their work to civilians before the summer is over.

Here Is Latest War
 Secret to Leak Out
By Associated Press

By Associated Press
 Washington, May 21.-The latest war secret to leak out is how friendly in- veritors all over the world gave to the United States their ideas for death-deal- ing machines for the destruction of Ger many.
 companion secret is how all these ideas were kept from the enemy by the seven serious sphinxes" of the patent office. This was board of seven men, of unquestioned loyalty and sworn to secrecy, empowered to examine and withhold patents on war machinery until the war was over and meanwhile turn ideas of promise over to the government
 More than 20oO devices which it was thought might be of value to the United States or the allies were passed upon and 200 were important enough to get before military authorities Some of them, it is said, helped win the war.
 The ideas came from England, France, Switzerland, Hawaii, New Zealand, Aus tralia, Mexico, Spain, Italy, Russia, Po- land-and one came from Germany Of course a larger number came from with in the United States. Now that the war

What the Flight to the Azores Has Taught the

By wALpEMAR KAEMPFFERr

 whatever the public may think of the oisasters which have attended the Amer ican attempt to fly across the Atlantic. scientists are not discouraged. The Amer lcan effort is a great engineering ex- pertinent, not a feat in sportsmanship Far more will we learn from the carefully controlled flights of the NC boats than rom the recklessly daring flight of Hawker.
 As these articles have pointed out over and over again. fog is the transatlantic flyers greatest terror, and fog it was that proved the undoing of two American craft. It is clear that we need meteor ological information if flying across the Atlantic is ever to become a commercial enterprise. So long as machines clumsy in design and slow in speed are employed and the American machines are cum bersome and slow-we must expect mis- haps. Until the 150-mile-an-hour trans atlantic flyer appears no pilot is in a position to guarantee the safe deliver Ing of his passengers in Europe unless

 he has exact meteorological information A hours in advance.
 Some pertinent questions are raised by the accidents that befell two of the Amer ican seaplanes Why did they not attempt to rise above the fog !? Meteorologists tell us that fogs are low-lying; they do not rise 2000 feet above the surface of the earth. It was their very clumsiness that prevented the American craft from saving themselves. Climbing means the expen- allure of power, and the expenditure ot power in turn means the loss of fuel. Every ounce of gasoline counts in this transatlantic flight. To labor long and hard up through cloud bank was an expedient that was out of the question. The fighting flyers on the battle front climbed 10000 feet in six minutes; the NC boats would have required many times that to accomplish the same purpose. Handicapped as they were by their weight and by their slowness they are com pelled to plunge into the coils of a fog which was equivalent to blindfolding the pilots.
 The NC-1 lost her way in the impen- etrable mist. Those who are familiar
