Airplane Engines.

The War Department made public
today an executive order signed re-
Gently by President Wilson formally
dissolving the aircraft board created
early in the war. The order says the
board has accomplished the important
purposes for which It was created. Its
place is taken by a director Of air-
craft production under the director of

Production of Liberty IL airplane
engines for the Army reached total
of 20,47S. final deliveries having been
made by the manufacturers during
the week ending March 81. A state
ment issued by the War Department
today shows deliveries by the manu-
facturers on war contracts as fol-
lows:
Packard Motor Car Co.. $500 en-
gines: Lincoln Motor Co.. $500: Ford
Motor Co., $3.50; General Motors Co.,
2,52S: Nordyke- -Marmon Co.. 1000.
Appropriations for the air service
Of the Army were reduced 81 per cent
for the fiscal year 1888 or from an
original total Of &944,3O4,758 to $459.-
3O4.758.
The total appropriations for the
service from the beginning of the
war, after making the reductions. are
given at $1,O97.304,758. of which s.
per cent or $712.o00.O 900 had been ex-
pended up to March Is.

Dancing begins with dinner and lasts
till about o'clock in the morning,
when the dancers sit down to a break
last of bacon and eggs-a custom
that may have been borrowed from
San Francisco. A plate of bacon and
eggs is relished now as were ortolans
for supper in pre-war days.
AS rule. the dances are quite SIM

one musician. piano player. English
people have been slow to acquire the

have learned them dance with one an

forms at its own will; and that 1t may

Of the nation is the only thing essen

interfere in the slightest. So far as
external relations are concerned. there
