munity, especially since the normal indi
vidual can acquire such an immunity with
out much difficulty.
There are three cardinal angles or po-
sitions or vertigo, it seems-horizontal
frontal and sagittal. These angles are il
lustrated by the diagram Of the three heads
at the bottom of this page.
"The greatest usefulness of the knowl-
edge that 'stunting' is an ear problem lies
in the fact that the flier may be educated
to disregard the vertigo effects of his
.'stunts' in the laboratory, instead of among
tie clouds, and without danger acquire a
tolerance to evolutions to degree impos-
sible in the air. This can be accomplished
by the use of an otologic apparatus known
as the 'orientator.' In its construction il

or changes Of position-which are pos
sible in all directions except actual for
ward progression, are governed by the in
dividual seated in the machine, using a
set of controls resembling those of an
aeroplane."

THE mystery of many tragic accidents
to aviators resulting from inexplic-
= able failure of the flying men to
control their machines at critical mo-
ments has now been cleared up by medi-
cal science
On each side of our heads, within the
middle ear. closely connected with the
apparatus Of hearing, there is a curious
little series Of three hollow loops or
membranes. These are called the semi
circular canals because of their shape and
, also because they are filled with liquid.
In these canals is our sense of balance.
On them depends our ability to keep erect
or to sway against external movements
and to transmit the sensation of balance
or our direction in space to our brains,
1t is through the functioning of these
canals that We are able, for instance, to
brace ourselves" when a train in which
. we are standing strikes a curve, for with
|. out them we would have no sensation of
being It an uncomfortable angle.
The semi-circular canals are, in fact, the
spirit levels of the body, and it is by the
impressions they send to the brain that
proper groups of muscles to keep the body
in proper equilibrium against the force of
gravity.
1t is the proper functioning of these
spirit levels in the aviators ears that en-.
ables him to control the delicately bal
anced machine in which he flies and the
conduct Of which Is so dependent upon the
delicacy and trueness of perception of its
changes in angle by its driver.

onds, are as important
to him as hours are to
people walking on solid

some violent evolution the
movement in the spirit

becomes confused, he mis-
judges angles and posi-

control and crashes to

a similar whirling in a chair balanced on
subjective effects of the actual stunt.
Established facts or principles, the doc
tors wrote, are the following:
Il. In each ear We have three semicircu-
lar tubes, or canals, containing fluid, so
placed that they are at right angles with
one another. Because of this arrangement
no change Of position of the individual is
possible without producing some move
ment OF fluid in one or more of the canals.
Movement of the fluid in these canals
sends messages to the brain, which are
there interpreted as body movement
Hence, the ears constitute the motion
sensing organs Of the body
"2. When an individual is whirled, be it
1n-the laboratory or in an aeroplane, there
Is produced a circulation of This fluid in
certain definite canals and planes. Now, If
the turning is suddenly altered or stopped,
or If the aeroplane comes out of a rotating
manoeuvre, the fluid in the canals con-
tinues to move in its former plane by sheer
force Of its momentum. The circulation of
the fluid by momentum is interpreted by
the brain as body movement; but not being
in accordance with fact, the body having
ceased to reVolve, it constitutes vertigo or
dizziness, and is disturbing to the indi-
vidual
'Labyrinthine vertigo, therefore, is a
false sensation Of motion similar 20 the
visual illusion of motion observed when
one is watching a moving train from the
window Of a stationary coach, both being
unavoidable phenomena of normal special
sense mechanisms which, however, the
subject easily learns to disregard.
"One must not fall into the error, how
ever, of thinking that the lack Of a normal
ear mechanism would be advantageous to
the fier, because of the immunity to YER
tigo which this condition would confer.

which is university in the scope and
extent Of its range of subject, It
strives to attain to the ideal of the
army to make the enlisted service a
university in khaki, and it is hoped
from the excellence of its program
the plan will be the army as its edu-
cational model.
Under the plan, the educational
needs of every class Of enlisted men
and civilian emplOye are to be looked
after, it serves the iIliterate; the
worker of small educational ad-
vantage; the striver after industrial
advantage; the striver after indus

who desires to continue his study
after leaving the service; the man
who desires a business or commercial
course and the man who desires to
get in the Army what he has been
deprived Of IN civil life, namely a
chance to earn and learn simultan-
eously.
In addition to all these courses the
