This privilege is not extended regularly. but just when Congress is not trying to cut down expenses.
 The last national guard and reserve officers clas.5 was held the fall of 1921, and it is not known when the next one will be authorized. This was the class that l had the pleasure of attending, and a genuine pleasure it was, from the day we arrived until the day We left.
 Upon arrival, we were met by stu dent officers of the regular army and escorted to our barracks. We thought at the time that this was rather un- usual for the regulars and were in- clined to think there was trick in 1t. But at the end of our three months stay We were convinced that It was nothing but sincere desire to promote good fellowship between the regulars and the guard. We were entertained as a class by the head of the department of horsemanship, our instructor in horsemanship. the as- sistant commandant and by the different classes of the regulars. The night before our departure We were given banquet by the basic class that will not soon be forgotton. Subjects
 The subjects taught to the national guard and reserve officers class were the following. Tactics. horse- manship, hippology. pistol mounted and dism ounted), sabre. machine rifle musketry, map reading and sketcn-

 There is something over there' she said. that makes people want to go back to where they came from, and they sing about it. Nobody In England sings about wanting to go back to Manchester, as you sing about Dixie or Michiganl We have had no true songs since Charles the Second brought over a host of French fiddlers"
 Did she know that songs about Michigan, for example. were written mostly hy young New Workers. who had never seen Michigan, and whose last wish was to go there?
 Aye, but the people like the songs they most express their wish. for they agree with them." And from that she pointed out that we read an ever increasing volume of poetry, another sure indication of the Innate great ness of the developing, dominant American spirit

 Fine Leader
 The Sabres, as we'll as all those men who later may belong to the out fit are extremely fortunate in having AS their leader man who is prof. cient in his knowledge of the Hast word" in cavalry. He is Capt. John C. Carter. In order to perfect himself even beyond his instruction during the World war he went to cavalry school at Fort Riley, Kan, last sea- son. From that school he brought back to Birmingham the accompany ing pictures which give an idea of what the students do at Fort Riley, as well as what the boys are being taught here.
 l asked Captain Carter to set down the fine points of Fort Riley, so that Birmingham people might gain an idea of what government troops are doing since the var. and of the great school. This institution of the reg ular army is authorized bv Congress in order to teach the cavairyman his profession.
 Captain Carter came home thor oughly enthused over it's work and it's attractiveness.

Tho jazz era seems to have run its course Not that jazz dancing is passing-it isn't-but jazz books and jazz plays get dimishing audiences. That is in part due to hard times

 And it was evil weather.
 When the box office opened there was line of 500 people waiting. Seven thousand applications for tick cts for that last performance had to be refused Thus fittingly ended q season which began October 3 and during which more than half mill lion people bought tickets. This is. of course. the striking example of the non jazz spirit The reason for the change Is no great puzzle, During the war years, when the tide of the nations manhood was rolling daily to the trenches of death. the noisiest. flashiest show was the best. The true message of jazz was Keep nov l ing; for heavens sake. don't thinkt' 1 And nobody wanted to think during the slaughter. Now England is in a i quieter, more contemplative mood. It is easy and natural to think about living now that living has ceased to consist chiefly of preparing l fon immediate death.

 Now the Air Cabin Roy

There are or have been to date, only two "air cabin boys in history. both of them English, but with the rapid development of civil aviation in America and Europe their tribe should increase, and the day seems not far distant when the adventurous small boy who runs away from home via a rope ladder flung from his hed- room window will head for the near est aerodrome. rather than the East India docks as heretofore. The first air cabin hoy. Willy Sandersou, Is now in hospital. suffering from in- iuries to his head received when his ship was wrecked or the French coast; the second. Heeterman, died ia the collision between the two London
 Parts air liners. Among his other duties the new cabin boy will call up numbers for passengers by wireless phone. The Paris-London planes are now equipped so that passengers may be connected with the regular tele- phone system of England.
