WASHINGTON-The war depart,
n1ent tells one of the cavalry's favorite
horse stories which, in case you
haven't heard it, is about the rookie
who was assigned to horse as soon
as he had reached camp.
The rookie hastily explained that
he had never ridden horse in
his life.
That's all right" the sergeant said.
'The horse has never been ridden
in his life either. The two of you
can work it out together"
Just as the cavalry officers are
horse minded, so everyone engaged
in aviation should be air-minded, tc
use more or less new expression
1t is often hoped here that the
American people will also become
air-minded, to the glory and benefit
OF areonautics
The National Aeronautic association,
for instance, is as air-minded as the
ordinary dog is flea-minded.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES ]. MONTAGUE
CHERCHEz LA FEMME

When Johnny keeps his trousers
pressed
And to his dads surprise
Saves up his nickels to invest
In ultra modish ties,
And thinks he ought to have tuck,
Like other fellows wear
HIS mother knows her laddie buck
Has met Girl, somewhere.
No longer on the fence he'll sit
With other youngish males,
Nor thinks it is effeminate
To clean his finger. nails.
But mother never wonders what
The boy is thinking of,
She knows her erstWhile smudgy tot
Is learning how to love.
It's fine to have him neat and clean
From hat to silken hose,
And know ne will not make scene
When told to brush his clothes.
It's rather pleasant, too, and yet
1t makes her sad somehow
To see that he does not forget
His table manners now.
She says-does mother-that she's
glad
To see the urchin grow
AS thoughtful and polite as Dad
Was twenty years ago.
And yet she'd almost sob with joy
If only she could see
Her little freckled tousled boy
The way he used to be.

DIR. AND MRS. FRITSCHE
RETURN FROM EUROPE

DR.. and Mrs. Albert Fritsche re-
turned to New Ulm last Wednesday
from a seven months sojourn in Eur
ope where the former attended fam
Gus medical and surgical clinics in
Vienna, Austria; Berlin, Germany;
Munich, Bavaria; Budapest, Hungary;
Berne, Switzerland, and other cities.
They also enjoyed sightseeing trips
to interesting points in Italy, Swift
erland, Germany, France, and visited
the famous gaming resort at Monte
Carlo, where mostly women, many of
them well advanced in years, can be
found gambling at the gaming tables.
At Geneva, Switzerland, they saw the
international buildings, where peace
conferences have been held since the
World war. They were fortunate in
having left Vienna four days before
the bloody rioting, which occurred
July Is, and in which an American
doctor, who stayed at the same board
ing house, was manhandled by the
mob.
Embarking at Bremen on the
steamship Columbia, which sailed
from that port, July 81, DR.. and Mrs.
Fritsche experienced quite a thrill on
their homeward journey. One night
at midnight, one of the two big pro-
pellers broke from it's shaft, and the
power unit driving it was completely
ruined, as the result of a propeller
piston breaking through the cylinder
head, causing about 100000 worth
of damage. The loud noise accom-
panying the accident awakened the
passengers, who became panic-strick-
en- when the ship filled with steam es-
Gaping from the boilers and engine
room. No one was hurt, however,

by his contact with the thousand live
