AS IT SHOULD BE

SCOTIA, Cal, Nov, IT. A com munity motion picture theatre where patrons vote on plays to be presented and the profits are divided among the various civic enterprises, is a feature of this little town tucked away in the redwood forests of northern California There is nothing makeshift or tempo rary about this project. The architect who designed one of the most widely known theatres on the Pacific Coast was engaged to design this one, which is built entirely of redwood with bark clad tree trunks for porch posts.
 The equipment is of the best and tle lighting is so ingeniously worked out that spectator could, if he would, read newspaper during the progress of the performance. Management is vested in a committee consisting ot the head of the Scotia hospital and the head of the Scotia fire department. The last named organization, instead of playing checkers in it's spare time, : devotes itself to furthering recreation al activities in Scotia; Hence its "cut" in the theatre proceeds, which are di- vided three ways after deducting in- terest in the investment and proper amount for depreciation.
 All patrons are invited to notify this committee as to what plays and incidental music they most enjoy, the only suggestion of 8 limitation being limitation too 8
 a request from the committee "that we get the best there it" Travel pic lures and high and low comedy appea, to be the fayorites thus far.
 Funds for the erection of the thea. tre and site were provided by a 10. cal milling concern.

CHANGE TO GO TO GERMANY

Recruiting for the Army of Occu- patton now on duty in Germany will be resumed on November 1. For the infantry 200 men are needed, of whom 12 must be clerks, but only recruits of a hi gh type, who can be quickly train ed, will be accepted. When BIO infan- try vacancies were throw open on Co., tober 1, they were filled up so quick ly that these enlistments for Germany had to be closed on October 6. Major General P. c. Harris, The Adjutant General of the Army , says:
 "The service in Germany has proved to be so attractive that the ranks there are always filled. Our chief diff ficulty is that regiments are apt to be over-enlisted before we can stop the recruiting officers from accepting more applicants, and we must send men to the station for which they were accepted.
 Equally popular is army service in Hawaii, and as rule few recruits can be accepted for duty there. However the 18th Field Artillery has left the United States for Service in the mid Pacific, and enlistments for this re- giment are authorized in orders iss,- ed recently.
 In the old army new recruits had no choice in the selection Of a regi- ment, and could not name any parti- cular station. In the peace-time Army g man may either pick his own regi- ment or designate the part of the 1 world to which he wishes to be sent.

CHICAGO, Nov, IT, The reckless aerial acrobatics with which Omer Locklear startled the world until they resulted in his death recently in Cali fornia have not been in vain, accord ing to air mail service officials here, for they report Locklears stunts" have opened the way for important developments in commercial aviation.
 Locklears stunt of changing from one plane to another several thousand feet above the earth will be copied in the air mail service and by commercial avaition companies in changing sacks of mail, packages or pilots from one ship to another, thus enabling aerial liners to make long journeys without landing, officials say. Some believe that within short time airplanes may even take gasoline and supplies in the air.
 When one of the mammouth air planes which aviators believe soon will be common flies over the control sta tion, smaller plane will come up to meet it the officials explain, and, by means of a rope, mail sacks or other packages will be lowered from the large ship will take on baggage from the smaller ship and speed on to it's destination.
 Eventually it is expected that this. plan will be perfected % that fuel supplies can be transferred from oss plane to another, making . nonstop coast-to coast trip possible.
 Pilots will change planes in mid air by means of a rope ladder lowered from one machine to the other, just as Locklear did, it is explained.
 The Government has been conduct ing tests along this line for some time. officials here say, and one commercial aviation company is reported to be planning to put the scheme into effect within a few months in transferring mail.
