There is nothing more difficult In

whv Japs Are Poor Aviators.

The Japanese are the greatest mas
tiers Of human equilibrium in the
world Watching them balance lightly
on slack wires or stand on their hands
on slender poles, one would assume
that aviation has few terrors for them.
AS matter of fact, however, their pc
culiar sense of equilibrium does not
seem to aid them in the flying air.
planes. An experienced instructor who
has drilled many Allied airmen says
the japanese make the least satisfac-
tory aviators in the world, ESkimoS
excepted.

HOW
SIMPLE SIGNS FORETELL

SIMPLE SIGNS FORETELL
THE WEATHER AT HAND.
The following on this subject
is given by an old weather
man.: A gray, lowering sunset,
or one where the sky is green or
yellowish green, indicates rain.
A red sunrise, with clouds lower
ing later in the morning, also in
dicates a storm. A corona grow
ing smaller indicates rain; grow
ing larger, fair weather. A morn
ing rainbow Is regarded as
sign Of rain; an evening rainbow
Is fair weather. A deep blue
color of the sky, even when seen
through clouds, indicates fair
weather; a growing whiteness,
an approaching storm. Fogs in
dictate settled weather. A morn
ing fog usually breaks away be-
fore noon. Unusual clearness Of
the atmosphere, unusual bright
ness Or twinkling of the stars,
indicate rain. The first frost and
the last frost are usually pre-
coded by temperature very much
above normal.
