PARIS, Dec. 26.-The large bea-
cons, shooting their rays several
hundred miles from the coasts of
Europe as a welcome and guide to
aviators from across the Atlantic,
will be established, one on the rocky
coast of Brittany and the other on
the southwestern coast Of Ireland, il

Danielou goes through.
'Lindbergh blazed the trail from
America to Europe" writes M. Dan

having arrived over Ireland, set his
course toward Brittany whence he
attempted vainly to continue on to
Paris. Miss Ruth Elders course also

Duty to Pilots

I'm America they are talking seri-
cusly of establishing floating islands
to mark the phases of the trans
Atlantic flights of the future. Tt
will take years to put this project
into execution, but we must remem-
Der that aviation progress is rapid.
Meanwhile our duty is to give aerial
pilots of the ocean all the help
within our power. One Of the most
urgent needs of trans-oceanic flying
is establishment of signal stations.
"At the most extreme westerly
point of the Breton peninsula there
are high hills, facing the sea, on
which our ancestors built great fires
to announce general mobilization,
capable of being perceived at a dis
lance of a hundred miles.
There are similar heights on the
rocky southwestern coast Of Ireland.
There should be erected two giant
lighthouses similar to that atop
Mont Valerien, outside Paris, which
would pierce the gloom and fog OF
the channel and eastern Atlantic
for hundreds of miles, first appear
ing to the oncoming f1ier as faint
nebula, gradually increasing in in
tensity as he nears the coast.
Brest Great Port
1.-THE extreme point of Finisterre
is the most westerly spot in Europe.
1t is on the line from Berlin to the
Azores and is destined to be a cen
trail junction of trans Atlantic
aerial lines. Objections advanced
against making Brest a great trans
Atlantic port-its situation south Of
the lane of steamers plying to North
Sea ports and the dangerous coast
line-cease to exist when it is a
question of an aerial port"

Has the average music lover, who
listens TO the seemingly ineXhaustive
repertoire of the United States Marine
Band, ever paused to wonder where
and how the band assemblies its pro-
grams?
The musical library at the Marine
Barracks is stacked from floor TO cell
ing with approximately 100000
sheaves of compositions, many or
them priceless either because they are
original manuscripts or out'of-print
librettos.
Sousa BOrrOws Piece.
When John Philip Sousa, leader of
the band from 1880 to 1892, comes to
town and wishes to play his piece,
Marching Through Georgia" he bor-
rows the only copy in existence from
the Marine Band library.
The library shelves are crammed
with absolutely irreplaceable scores,
accumulated all over the world dur
ing a period of 1913 years since the
band was organized Many foreign
publishers, particularly in France,
Russia and Germany, who had prided
themselves on orchestral arrange
ments for every type of instrument.
have gone out of business since the
World War. The present dearth of
complete and original scores by for
eign composers renders the stock in
the barracks library particularly val
liable, because publishers in the
United States do not print orchestral
arrangements for large orchestras.
Among Rare Scores.
Among the rarities that repose in
the stacks are the original Russian
scores for Rachmaninoff' "FantaSie"
and Tschaikowsky' 1872 Overture"
arranged both for band and orchestra,
the files of each naturally being kept
distinctly separate.
Several former leaders of the band
have bequeathed compositions written
