BRITISH PARTY WILL FLY
OVER TOP OF MT. EVEREST

of the great range, will know that
they are beginning one of the most
perilous adventures in the history Of
aviation.
The British air ministry and the
India office are supporting the expedi-
ton, and the Maharaja Of Nepal,
within whose territory the mountain
stands, has given permission for the
flight over the summit.
A period of intensive training and
flying trials will precede embarkation
for India. Every member of the ex-
petition must be physically fit to
Withstand the strain of flying above
the mountains. Airplanes and en-
gines must be tuned perfectly for the
task; for mechanical failure will mean
disaster.
Negotiations are being made to Sc
cure the high-fying vickers vespa
plane with Bristol Pegasus motor
which Cyril Unwins used to set the
new altitude record, and another craft
Of similar powers.
It is probable that two machines
will ascend together, one to make the
flight over the summit, the other to
photograph the attempt, since an OBJ
vious difficulty is the problem of Sc
curing adequate evidence that the
peak is actually flown over.
To Wear Heated Clothing.
Both machines will carry cameras
and it is hoped that the record thus
obtained will place the success of the
venture beyond doubt. The flyers will
wear specially heated clothing and
will use oxygen apparatus.
At the time of the preliminary trials,
or perhaps preceding them, Mr.. On
wins may attempt to reach an altitude
greater than the present record. He
is confident that his plane is capable
Of another 1000 feet.
In speech to his constituents,
when he was asking for leave Of abb
sence from his parliamentary duties
during the period of the expedition,
Lord Clydesdale explained that the
chief object which he and his friends
have at heart is to promote British
world prestige-particularly in India.
He added that the flight over Mt.
Everest is the "only one original flight
really worth WHILE; every other sig
nificant part of the world having been
flown over. He briefly sketched the
danger Of the attempt; one great peril
being that fifty miles of the flight
takes the airplanes over impossible"
country. He explained, however, that
he had given that aspect every con-
sideration and had mo wish to sub
ject this constituency again to the
expense and trouble of by-election."

Bond was quite right. Evans came

michigan Bridget"

| XIoMEN have been led to take up
w the masculine pursuit of warfare
by various reasons, patriotic and senti-
mental. But it is probable that few Of
them took up arms, as did Bridget
Devens, for the love of fighting. For
| Bridget, when the Civil was was over,
chose not to return to the quiet routine
of home and children, but with her
husband re-enlisted in the regular
army, went with her regiment to Texas
| and was for time stationed near the
Rocky mountains!
Mrs. Devens is known in history as
michigan Bridget" from the fact that
1t was with the First Michigan cav
airy regiment, in which her husband
was private, that she first went into
battle, and many and various are the
tales of her valour. A robust Irish
woman, she rode horseback day and
night. on one particular march it is
said wearing out several horses. keep
ing up with the best of her fellow
soldiers during Sheridan's famous
marches in the Shenandoah valley, and
more than once she took the place
left by a wounded man in the firing
line.
During one illy-fated engagement
the captain of Bridget's regiment was
killed and colonel badly wounded.
1t was Bridget who accompanied the
wounded man to City Point hospital
and tended him four days and nights
without sleep, until he was well on his
way to recovery. Then, indignant that
her captains body had been left on
''rebel SOIL" after single nights
sleep and accompanied only by an
orderly, she again took to horse to go
after it. 1t was hard ride of fifteen
miles. Once at the battlefield. how
ever, the tireless woman found the
body, strapped 1t to her horse and
continued on her way, riding seven
miles to City Point. where she had the
body embalmed and saw that it was
properly shipped home
But Bridget was not yet finished.
On the field Of battle she had seen a
number of wounded soldiers left with
out care Once more she returned.
With prodigious effort she got eight Of
the wounded men into wagon. and
with her sorry load started once more
for City Point. Half way there, she
ran into a detachment of Southern
scouts. They ordered her to halt. that
they might investigate. Lashing her
horses. Bridget kept on her way. The
Confederate leader shouted after her.
