number Of machines are being pur.
chased abroad.
Flying Force Ready.

ganized in air squadrons, special
flights and special attachments and
groups. Each air squadron con.
sists Of two flights Of twenty-six
machines each.
Great attention is being paid to
the theoretical instruction of pilots
and observers and special schools

established.
Airsnlp bases, hangers and aero
dronaes are being constructed In i'm
portant centers and particularly in
the frontier areas. The Chobynka

Trotzky hopes to develop aircraft

gree, and at the present time new

being made by Russian workmen
under the direction of German ex
perts. -.
Notable progress Is reported in
the construction Of airplanes with
light metals. particularly with q
metal called duraluminum, a mix

Conditions Of life In the air force
have been made more attractive
than in any other branch of the
military service, with a view to re.
curing the best possible men. The
Russians are said to be deft pupils
In the arts Of the air.
Special antiaircraft and search
light detachments have been estab

The young principal OF Hoosier
school had TO borrow some money In

notify the school board OF his indebt-

and was told It would be all right II
one Of the teachers OF his building

the oldest and most faithful one In
the building.
While they were talking. the princi-
pals young wife. respondent In fine
rsiment, with her best friend, the
mayors wife, came through the room
on her way TO her husbands office.
She gave the teacher a cOndescending
aod and told her husband she wished
10 see him In his office. With an
apology on his lips the young fellow
followed the snobby wife.
For a minute the little old maid
hesitated, then she signed the note,
and started one Of the pupils toward

CALLS FOR CAREFUL WORK

Extinct Animals for Museums
Must Be Experts

Few persons contemplating the re-
markable specimens OF extinct animals

the amount OF work which has been
entailed In the uncovering and prepa-
ration Of these specimens. In the first
place, a wellequipped expedition is
generally sent out 10 look for these
bones. and many miles are sometimes
covered Ia the search OF likely spot
for operations. Even then tons OF sand
are carefully moved often without un-
covering the bones that are being
sought
The removal Of the soil can be done
only by those who are familiar with
the work. for an inexperienced hand
could readily do much damage by not
knowing how 10 proceed. When a
bone has been located II is uncovered
slowly by the aid OF small brushes and
delicate implements. The bones when
found are exceedingly brittle and must
be handled with the greatest OF care.
When they are finally brought 10 light
they are given a coat OF shellac and
then placed In bath OF -four paste.
They are then carefully wrapped In
strips OF fabric and put In boxes. When
the latter are placed In crates for ship
ment the smaller boxes are surrounded
with cotton and other material TO pre-
vent any possibility OF damage being
done TO the specimens.
