perfected the airplane into a deadly wea-
pom of offence. Such tremendous strides
We're made in the science of flying at that
time that the casual observer might well
think that perfection was all but at

and limited Sunday school
attendance. the Unitarian pastor at North
Andover, Mass, attributes much of the
success of his thriving Sunday school to
gasoline. Seated at the wheel of a big
truck and followed by feet of touring
ears, he obeys the biblical injunction of
going out in the highways and byways
every Sunday and bringing to his school
children within a radius of seven miles
We should say that his first success, how
ever. was in getting the truck and the Co
operation of n fleet Of touring cars.
