Some AirpIane Gas Is Pink.

There is a difference between auto
mobile gasoline and airplane gasoline.
For. aircraft the gas must be lighter
and more volatile, that is, evaporate
more readily, than ordinary gas. This
causes it to work better at great alti-
tudes. There are three grades of gas
oline for our airplanes, one for train
ing planes, better grade of gasoline
for bombing planes and the very best
grade for the fighting planes. "Fight-
ing gas" as it is called, is colored
pink. This is to distinguish it from
other grades so that inexperienced
men working at the aviation fields
will not use this valuable gasoline for
other purposes. This pink gas, is as
pure as it can be produced, refined
and doubly refined and strained or
filtered until there are no impurities
left in it.-American Boy.

BANANAS MAKE BERLIN GLAD
After Five Years Absence, This Ma
tive of the Tropics Is Real
Symbol of Peace.

AS I was passing down the Fried
richstrasse, says correspondent of the
London Times, writing from Berlin,
my eye was caught by crowd of
people which suddenly collected in
front of a delicatessen shop.
1t was only with difficulty that one
could get near enough to see what it
was that attracted so much attention.
I heard EXPLANATIONS of wonder and
admiration, and on looking little
more closely saw-a bunch of bananas
which the shOpkeeper had just hung
up in the window and which was
novelty to the Berliners, who for near
ly five years have seen not a trace
of this fruit, once so plentiful and
cheap in the capital.
The smiling faces and little jokes
made it quite evident that the banana
was recognized as a symbol Of peace,
and that the delight felt at it's
presence was due to the evidence it
afforded that the blockade is a
thing of the past.

Holding Down a Profession.

A young fellow living in one Of In
diana's small towns was graduated
from the high school and looked about
for some easy. yet lucrative profession.
He finally decided to study medicine,
and settled down in the office of the
towns most popular doctor for sum-
mer's reading. AS he read he watched
this busy mans hours of work.
One day in the late summer the doc
tor came in out of drenching rain,
tired out, and trihe cross. CHANGING
at the immaculate young fellow, whose
heels were reposing on the office desk,
he asked brusquely:
! "Still think you want to be a doc
tori"
"Ye-es," came the languid answer,
but I've decided to practice only on
fair days, and not go out of nights

NAPLES FOR why RIDGE
to Be Memorial Forest on
Battlefield.

An overseas dispatch says 200 young
naples have been planted on the des-
ert of what was vimy Ridge. This in
the beginning of the proposed Cana
dian memorial forest-the maple Is
Canada's emblematic tree-and the
saplings just placed are declared to
be the only living trees in the war zone
today.
How the landscape has been
changed and how the reconstructed
one will differ from that before the
war! Most Americans think of Hol-
land, Belgium, Flanders as painted by
Van Goyen. Ruyysdael, Rembrandt
andS others. Instinctively the mental
picture follows Hobbema's avenue of
Middleharnis," with spindling, thin
shanked wisp-topped and scant-on-
shade trees either side the road. What
different aspect naples would give
the scene, or oaks, or elms or other
wide-spreading varieties. The Euro
pean, like the oriental, seems to have
chosen his favOrite trees on some
other basis than expansive foliage
the cedar, the cypress, the palm, the
stonepine, the poplar of Lombardy;
yet the inspiration for Gothic cathe-
drals came from the solemn groves Of
archllke trunks and limbs and TO-
liage, and wherever two, elrns meet
there is the suggestion right at hand.
Many years must elapse before the
War-tOrn regions are again venerable
with frees and nv that time q new
school Of landscape painting may have
come, glad to paint full, rounded trees
like the American, Inness; or, revers-
ing the Inness method, of leaving a
circular opening through his trees to
reveal the scene beyond, this future
school may feature the transplanted
naples rounded ''area" in the fore
ground while displaying the European
background on either side.
