AVIATION INTEREST
GROWING STRONGER
New Cites Increased Demand
for Air Mail Routes-More
Lines in Prospect.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Americans generally are more in
terested in aviation now than ever
before, even than during the war, in
the opinion of Postmaster General
New, who declares he believes COM
mercial aviation is on the eve of i'm
portant developments. The Post Of
fice Department, under his direction,
has blazed the way with day and
night flying on its transcontinental air
mail route and within a few weeks
Will put in operation an overnight air
mail service between New York and
Chicago. Negotiations are being con-
Quoted with the Cuban government,
with every indication of success, for
establishment of the air mail be-
tween Key West and Havana. Pro
posals have been made for establish
ment Of a service between Key West
and Colombia by way Of Cuba, Guate-
mala and the Panama Canal Zone.
Extensions of the domestic air mail
service are in prospect.
Mail Service in Demand.
The deep interest in aviation shown
by Americans is indicated by the re-
quests from many cities for air mail
service and by the prospective par
ticipation of financierS In commercial
aviation services. Under the recent
law the Postmaster General Is author
tzed to enter into contracts for carry
ing the mail by air, but will do SO
only where 1t can be shown there is
an actual need and that such service
viii be successful. Postmasters must
petition for the service, showing the
proposed schedules, facts bearing on
the necessity for such route and esti-
mates of the probable traffic. Con-
tractors may be paid four-fifths of the
air mail postage for carrying the mail.
The Government, through the Post
Office Department, is prepared to aid
commercial aviation only to that ex-
tent. The Postmaster General be-
iieves the Government should not
take up aviation for carrying the
mails exclusively, but should contract
for air mail service in the same man
ner as 1t contracts with the railroads
for mail carriage.
Would Need Appropriations.
The proposed service to South
America is being promoted by con-
Germ now operating in Colombia and
which Is endeavoring to form an
American company to conduct the in
ternational service. It's tentative
plans call for flying between Key
West and Bogota by way OF Havana,
Guatemala and Panama The Amer
ican Post Office Department would
favorably consider using the service
providing 1t was operated by Amer
tcan capital and manned by American
pilots, but would have to secure ap-
propriations from Congress for the
purpose. At present the Post Ofhce
Department is limited to $780, 900 for
the year for the foreign mail service
by aircraft. 1t contracts for a serv.
ice between Seattle and Vancouver,
British Columbia, and Is about to
enter into the Key West-Havana
service. The carrying Of passengers
and express in addition to the mails
IS essential, In the opinion of postal
officials, to the success of new air mail
routes.

SAYINGS OF
MRS. SOLOMON.
by Helen Rowland

UERILY. Verify, my Daughter,
it hath come to pass that
eove is no longer like unto wine,
which goeth to the head and
maketh the world to spin, but
like unto weak tea, which is
pleasant, but not intoxicating.
Hast thou, oh Simple One.
dreamed of love as 1t is in
poetry and young visions? Then.
charge thee, awaken from thy
trance!
For, according to the poet. a
lover cometh as conquering
hero with garlands and banners;
but in real life he cometh as
casually as meal-times and as
unexpectedly as a case OF
sunburn.
In poems and in novels he
weareth a nimbus and talketh in
beautiful figures; but in real life
he weareth a straw hat and
talketh in kisses and college
slang.
In fiction and verse he would
fight or die for the woman Of
his heart; but in real life he
reacheth the climax of devotion
when he showeth a willingness
to teach her to drive a car or
play golf.
In poems and the imagination
he falleth upon his knees in
graceful adoration-but in real
life he prostrateth himself upon
thy best sofa, cushions in an
attitude of comfort and puffeth
~ oY1d
pettings.
himself about to propose mar
riage to a woman he is not as
one filled with inspiration, but
as one about to turn on the cold
shower and filled with fear and
trembling.
His throat contracteth, and his
lips refuse to move; he is over
come with. doubts and self-pity,
as one who .taketh the pen,
wherewith to sign his own death
warrant.
And, whatsoever he seeketh to
say, his tongue cannot utter it.
His nerve faileth him and his
Zine" becometh twisted!
And when he would say, Il
adore theev' he saith, II adore
cottage cheese, or spaghetti, or
saxophonesy'
And, in all the days of her
life no woman. receiveth a de-
claration of love which she is not
ashamed to remember!
For, alas, love-making hath
become one of the dead langu-
ages, and proposing is one OF
the lost arts.
Yet, peradventure, it is more
thrilling to be loved a little than
to be jollied much.
SELAH!
