I'M GOING TO START IN WRITING LETTERS
By Hobart Tinps'

Twas New Years Eve. A party Was madly under way In honor of some show girls. The hosts were Clubmen gay. There was rich food, wine and
 music.
 There was dancing, laughter, song. But near midnight 1t grew quiet; Then an old boy asked, What's
 Wrong? Are you swee.ios making pledges For the New Year? That's no fun. Cheer up, More wine. This party Has only just begun Here one girl dropped her wine
 glass
 And when her chum did cry, For heavens sakcs, what is it.
 Dot"
 She bravely did reply;
 Refrain I'm going 10 start in writing letters On New Years to mother and dad This life, I won't let cause me to for
 get
 The best friends that I ever had. A new leaf. l VOW I'll turn over. May God keep it clean, the New
 Year, As the letters I write, back home
 every night
 To my loved ones so precious and
 dear" Now, as she finished speaking The bells New Year proclaimed. But there were no glad greetings. Her words, them all had shamcd Just silence, which was broken By a youth who'd long admired The girl. Come, Dot we're leaving You're all keyed up and tired" They left. Once in his auto, He said, Lets quit this life. A ranch out west I've purchased. Let's go there-man and wife" When she whispered, T am willing He answered T was right; I knew you were pure gold, dear, When you did say tonight: Refrain I'm going 10 start in writing letter! On New Years to mother and dad This life, 1 won't let cause me tt forget
 The best friends that I ever had. A new leaf, I VOW I'll turn over. May God keep it clear, the Nev Year, | AS the letters I write, back hom
 every night To my loved ones so precious ant dear"

In Fridays lesson we learned
that a regular inspection Of the
airplane and its motor Is the
only possible way Of assuring
maximum efficiency. We reviewed
in some detail the necessary
elements Of the airclaft engine
makeup that should be covered
by regular inspection.
In today's lesson we shall re-
view the necessary routine for
the proper inspection OF the air
plane in general. There are very
many important parts Of the air
plane and its motor that must
be included In any thorough in
spection.
A weekly inspection card should
be issued for each craft. This card
should be marked according to
defects found, and should then
be turned over to reliable
mechanic; who in turn should
repair the defects. Before flight is
made with the craft, the repairs
should be checked against the
card markings to make sure that
everything Is safe.
Starting at the front end OF tae
machine. the propeller may be
Inspected first.
The condition Of the blades
should be noticed. The hub assem-
bly,. including bolts, wE.-herS, and
cotters should be inspected, as
wen as the security of the shaft.
Inspection Of Gas Tanks
The gasoline system covering
the tank, gasoline leads and con-
INJECTIONS, and pump should be
in pected. The water system
should be inspected for leakage,
as well as the amount Of water
necessary in the cooling system.
The oiling system should be
inspected for leakage and the
necessary amount Of oil. The en-
CINE should be inspected for
valves. spark plugs, carburetor.
magnetic, and throttle control.
The landing gear inspection
should cover tire initiation, wire
tension, wire terminals. struts,
loose Spokes, axle and shock
absorbers.
. The front Of the fuselage, or
the fuSlage nose, should be in
spected for security Of engine
bed and bolts, all bed bracings,
and struts. VIII g joints should be
inspected for pins, cLtterS, and
safety wires. ALI wires, flying aHlL
landing wires should be inspected
| for tension. Wires, fittings, and
turnbuckles must be gone over.
Wing struts should be inspected
for straightneSs, bolts and cot
tiers. Ailerons should be in
spected. Notice should be taken
as to straightness, hinge assembly,
security, wear, control wires and
puIleyS.
Rudder inspection should cover
hinge assembly, control wire con-
nections and pulleys. All control
wires that are frayed the least bit
must be replaced. The Stahilizer
should be inspected for nuts,
bolts, cotters and braces. The
vertical fin inspection should
cover nuts, bolts and cotterS. The
elevators should be inspected for
hinge assembly. security, wear,
pins and cotters. The control
