An Elegant Diversity.
Manchester GuardianD

A theory that the citizens of U. s. A. were tending to adopt pronunciation that might be described English American instead of American
 English has been put forward at the Cambridge
 Summer School. Curously enough an American
 student at that seat of learning has also been found
 who says: We admit the beauty of pure English and it's superiority to the American nasal twang, but the Englishmans intonation often raises hum- orous comment in the States" Much depends on what is regarded pure English; there some experts who have asserted that the best English of all used to be spoken by the gentlefolk of Dublin. The best varieties of mother tongue
 certainly not found among the exaggerated forms lof what is called Southern Engsh-that is the
 variety, 1t is to be feared that often raises hum- orous comment in the States" But the Americans, or their humorists have rather mistaken mo-
 tons about the Englishman's speech; their favorite travesty appears to be extraordinary branch of the Cockney dialect with unnecessary "hs' added all the place Very few people in this island talk like Americas comic idea of an Englishman. And, it may be added, there any number of
 Americans who do not talk with nasal twang.
 There is difference between good American speech and good English, but it would be contrary to all experience to say that it is a displeasng difference that there is any ground at all for
 hoping that it will ultimately disappear.

New York, Dallas and Louisville was well earned and finely given. The thought that turned these fers toward America and the welcome bestowed upon them testify that American and French friend ship endures in spite of any petty trade rivaries that might exist.
 And this suggests that the air trips between this country and France and the travel back and forth ought to forecast closer relations rather than higher and higher tariff walls.

THIS business of training stu
i dents to fly must be great sport
for instructors.
I believe I gave Bob Shank, Hoo
sier Airport president and my in
structor in the art Of flying, thrill
as the climax Of my third lesson In
the air. However, the thrill was not
due to my brilliant flying.
"We will practice take-offs and
landings again today" Shank told
me as we TAXED to the edge of the
field, land I want you to remem-
Der everything tell you on these
first few attempts.
IF you do well, you may try it
once without any instructions from
me-"
All set. Pushing the stick forward
and opening the throttle in a slow
steady motion, felt the Travel Air
biplane start moving and the tail
rise to the flying angle.
With frequent coaching from
Shank I waited until the plane was
rolling along about forty miles an
hour and the wheels bouncing a
little on the ground, as though eager
to be off.

DULLING back gently on the
Il stick to get the nose up into the
climbing angle, I felt the earth
slipping away.
Soon we were up to about 1900
feet and, following instructions, I
circled banking the left wing lit
tie, around the Speedway, south to
Sixteenth street, and back in posi-
ton to land.
"Cut your motor, drop the planes
nose to the gliding angle, and try
to land just inside the field on
line with that white strip" Shank
told me.
AS we neared the ground, he in
structed me to begin leveling off,
pulling clear back on the stick as we
were about two feet from the
ground, in order to pull down the
tail and make a three-point land
ing. In a three-point landing both
wheels and the tail skid touched the
ground at the same time.

Sergeant Was Shrewd,
but Unlucky Day Came

While in training in France, Ser
geant Matthews usually carried a
huge pack while on the morning
hikes. The wonder was that he bore
up so nicely under the heavy bur-
den. When all the rest were jaded at
the end of the hike the sergeant ap-
peared fresh and in a jovial mood.
One morning when hiking with
packs we were marched to large
field where to our amaZement a regi-
mental inspection of equipment was
to take place. We proceeded to lay
out equipment in an orderly fashion.
Our captain walked hurriedly by in
a critical mood. He stopped abruptly
in front of Sergeant Matthews pack.
"Open up your pack!' commanded
the captain. Wherewith, the sergeant
undid the pack and with all eyes
focused in his direction, revealed a
large stove pipe.-L. A. kirkpatrick.

Before he realized it Vaughn and his

invitation to visit division headquar-

general insisted that he do his stuff.
So the singing soldier cleared his

great gusto and much feeling sang his
song.
