TIE OBSER VER- Makes Random Observations
 On the City ana Its People

Formation of a district organiza- ton by the merchants and property owners of Broad street and vicinity is hopeful sign for that communi- ". It pOlishes up the future and has every indication of promoting the best interests of that part of the city.
 Residents of other sections of the city who have no occasion 10 visit Broad street and its environs would be surprised if they could observe what is going on there. The thor oughfare runs through the heart of one or the most populous districts in the city limits. serving as the : trunk of q tree from which run many branches. It has stores which oater to the needs of the district, a banking house and a theater. The residents of the ward, which has become known politically as the Fighting Fifth are frugal and in- dustrious. The majority of them work in the factories for daily wages but their financial handicap has not prevented them from progressing socially and otherwise and today q large number, depending also entire ly on family income, own their own homes.
 Merchants in the Broad street district are beginning 10 realize that they must adopt progressive ideas and the formation of the associa- ton. it is expected, will contribute toward this end.
 Although the s1biect of political influence has not been considered, the association will be able at no distant time 10 demand civic inn provements for that section. Politi- cal leaders would indeed be blind if they failed to appreciate the i'm portanco of the association as q power in that particular part of the community. Within recent years the fifth ward has, 10 great extent, de- term!ncd the outcome Of municipal elections. If the merchants and property owners association gains the strength which is anticipated, it's approval will be greatly sought by tho administration which happens t9 be ln power.
 Now that We are ready 10 take ao lesson two of our course on
 Aviation for Beginners, we would like 10 impress on oTr students one ,llng. Invariably during the early .trg"s of training, the student be- comes impatient ana asks, When will l be able to loop the loop" We cannot impress upon our readers strongly enough that looping the loop comes only after advanced training. and the student should necessarily learn to fly in a straight line before trying the loop. If, however, in trying 10 fly in a straight line, the student loops any way We give no penalty and often- times we provide a lovely floral piece, depending on the rating Of the student.
 Today We are going to try to tell you folks just how to get your plane 10 rise above the ground. The pro- c11ures in this part of flying are divided into four classes. namely; contact, taxi. zoom and flight. The contact is merely what the name implies. The propeller is made to tWirl by a motor which will be found encased in the machine. 4 man in overalls twirls the propeller until a spark has caught the gas fumes in the cylinders or he has just missed cutting off thumb. Then comes the taxi (15 and 3. The plane starts moving over the ground, headed for a large sign with toothpaste ad on it. Now is the time 10 act quickly. Grabbing the rising lever with both hands, pull towards the body. The plane should rise. If however, it continues to- wards the toothpaste sign, be 8 true sport and laugh it off.
 If the plane rises above the ground, it is time for the zoom. De- tlecting the deflectors and al,ituding the alttuder, point the nose of the plane towards that little fluffy cloud over in the east. No, not that one. That's smoke from a factory chim- ncy and you'd get all soot besides probably wrecking the plane. There, that's better. Now straighten out your plane, using q Size B-1 Little Giant Plane SraisEtener, on sale at nearly any hardware and feed store.
 Now you are flying. How do you like it? We thought you'd be crazy about il. We knew, in fact, that you must be crazy about something to ever take up flying in the first place.
 See that little specll down there? You know what that is? That's little speck of oil on your goggles. Isn't it wonderful. Now make the original statement that people look just like little ants" and you will be q real flicr.
 You'd better slow down for this curve. There's always a cop hanging out around somewhere along in here and he's a terror on new dliv- CTS. That's better. See, We told you there he is over behind that cloud.
 My, see the smoke come out Of your engine! We'll bet a dollar to 9 cookie that we're on fire. So long, we're sorry that you forgot all about bringing along parachute, but then, you should have known enough to do that anyway. Good bye-don't take any wooden nickeis.
 Our next lesson will be stunt Flying by Major Hugo Downfast of the Royal Flying Corpse.
