AERIAL REVIEW SET
FOR WRIGHT DAY.
83rd Anniversary of First Flight
Will Be Celebrated in Capital
December II,

At least 20 civil aircraft are ex-
pected to take part in an aerial re-
view over Washington at 1890 am.
Thursday, December II, in observance
Of the thirty-third anniversary of the
first airplane fight, it was announced
today by Chester H. Warrington, pres
ident of the Washington Air Derby
Association and president of the Aero
Club of Washington.
Both local aviation organizations
are sponsoring the annual Wright
day celebration, which will include
the aerial review in the morning, an
illustrated lecture on the history Of
aviation at the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition in the afternoon and dinner
dance in the evening.
The aerial review will be confined
TO privately owned and commercial
aircraft, Warrington announced They
will take off from College Park Air
port at 10:15 am, in time to appear
over downtown Washington at 1920,
the hour of the first flight at Kitty
Hawk, N. c., on December II, 1908.
The route to be flown will be from
College Park down the Eastern
Branch to Hains Point. up the Po-
tomac to Georgetown University and
then on an airline back to College
Park.
The afternoon lecture will be given
by Paul Edward CARRIER, curator of
aeronautics at the Smithsonian, be-
fore an audience which is expected
to include honor guests representing
various aviation activities. Arrange
ments for the dinner-dance have not
been completed.

BALANCED BUDGET
BY 193839 IS SEEN
Legislator Predicts Treas
ury Equilibrium Without
Additional Taxes.

The Federal budget will be balanced
not later than the fiscal year, 1889,
and this will be possible without levy
ing any additional taxes, Represent
ative Ludlow, Democrat, of Indiana,
predicted today. Ludlow Is chairman
of the subcommittee on the Treasury
Post Office appropriation bill, which
he promised to have ready for House
consideration as soon as Congress
meets.
This is the largest of the regular
supply bills and Ludlow has called his
subcommittee to meet next Monday
to begin hearings.
The budget could be balanced in the
fiscal year, 1878, Ludlow said, 'if 1t
were not for the enormous sinking
funds required to meet the interest on
Government obligations already in
Cured"
1T will be possible to balance the
budget the following year, he ex-
planned, because we already have a
very wide basis of our tax structure
and, with improving business, the
revenues Of the Government are pro
pressively increasing so that we may
look forward to an enormous revenue
from existing taxes"
Ludlow said that he believes the
President and the members of the
Appropriations Committee are in &C
cord with this opinion.
He emphasized that there must be
additional relief appropriations, but
said the problem of relief is being
solved to a considerable extent by in
creased private employment.
1.-THE way to insure a balanced
budget" he said, sis to wipe out all
unnecessary governmental agencies,
reduce bureau personnel to a mini
mum and refrain from making appro-
priations when there is no real neces-
sity."

sidered an Introduction.
2. When both a fork and spoon
are used in serving dish, is the fork
held in the right or left hand?
Answer-The fork Is usually held
in the left hand and the spoon in
the right.
8. Should fish bones and fresh fruit
pits be removed from the mouth with
the fingers?
Answer-Fish bones are removed
between the thumb and first finger.
Pits should be dried as much as pos
sible in the mouth; dropped into the
cupped fist; and then dropped on to
the plate.
4. Are hors d'oeuvres eaten with the
fingers or fork?
Answer-When served at table. they
are eaten with a fork. When served
in the living room on canapes, they
are taken in the fingers.
S. Is 1t necessary to use a finger
bowl just because one is served?
Answer-Not if you are sure you
have no need for one.
6. At dinner party is lady seated
at the right or left of her escort?
Answer-If you mean by escort"
a man who happened to stop for her,
there is no reason why she should sit
next to him at all. If he is her par
ticular boy friend, he would probably
be placed next to her, but on which
side is not important.
7. Should unpitted olives be eaten
whole, or small pieces bitten off and
tine pit not taken into the mouth at
all?
Answer-Do whichever seems sim
plest to you. but do not fill your mouth
nor. on the other hand, nibble like
squirrel.

eatable particles of food that are
taken into the mouth unknowingly

Natures Children
Wild Black Cherry, Prunus Serotina.

a shout, soon to be joined by the
small, white, fragrant flowers Ia
racemes to inches long. There is
a gentle hum above them as happy
hordes of insects sip nectar and carry
cargoes of pollen to other cherry trees
nearby.
In September the fruit is ready for
the eager birds, and country children
know well the bitter tang of the pea
sized purple fruits. 1t is seldom the< a
tree can really mature her fruits.
There are so many waiting for them
to ripen.
The wild black cherry held first
place in the medicine chest of The
early days. In old-fashioned remedies
and in patent medicines it was usually
the base of many concoctions. 1t still
is used in extracts and tonics.
THAT tired feeling" in the old days,
was soon disposed of by cherry
bounce" Brandies and cordials al
had the delightful wild cherry favor.
1t was the custom for the settlers,
frugal minded souls, to chew the open

blood" so that doctor would not be
needed.
The wood of this tree is its chief
value. When it is polished, there is
none that can surpass its satiny finish
and beauty. Its rich, lustrous brown
shade becomes more beautiful with
age. Fine furniture is made of it and
interior trim. Small pieces are used
for inlay work and veneering.
The only tree you are likely to con-
fuse the wild black cherry with is the
birch. They have the same slitllke
horizontal breathing holes" But
sample e bit of the cherry and you
will not be confused any longer. The
birch's flavor is rather mild. but the
bark of the cherry is as bitter as
quinine.
There are always baby trees about
their mother Transplanting the
youngsters can easily be accomplished.

she. II tried 1t and 1t didn't fool him
for very long. II that is the trick that
Father said he would show me, I can
tell him right now that 1t won't work."
When Reddy reached the end of the
field he didn't jump up on the wall.
He turned and ran along at the foot
of the wall until he reached a corner
Of the field Then he turned again
and ran up the field, still keeping
close to the wall. Half way up the
field he once more turned and started
straight across the field so that he
would cross his own trail, the one
made when he ran down the middle
Of the field.
The young Fox blinked. What was
he doing that for? That trail would
be perfectly easy to follow all the way
around that field. She couldn't un-
derstand it at all. Reddy was by this
time almost to the trail he had made
when running down the length of the
field. Suddenly he made a tremendous
jump. 1t was long jump. It car
ried him well over the trail he had
made going down the field He made
another Jump off to one side. Then
he trotted to the stone wall, jumped
up on it and lay down.
BY this time the Hound had
Strengthened out the trail and was
once more running in full cry.
Straight to the entrance to the field he
c1inned ty1lar Ia koy
down the length of the field, his
tongue going for all it was worth.
There were eagerness and threat in
the sound of that voice as 1t came
rolling back to the anxious young Fox
at the edge Of the pasture. The scent
lay strong. There was no break in
that steady baying as the Dog raced
down the length of the field, turned
where Reddy had turned at the end of
the field. ran along to the corner,
turned again and followed the trail up
along the stone wall until once more
1t turned straight out toward the mid
die of the field. There hadn't been a
thing to puzzle that dog. 1t was a
simple matter for that wonderful nose
OF his to follow that scent.
The Dog came to the spot where
Reddy had made his long jump. OF
course he stopped barking then. The
trail was broken. At once he began
to circle around looking for the trail.
AS he circled of course he came to
the old trail leading down the field
He didn't recognize it. He started off
down the length of the field again.
Once more he made the circle around,
and he came back to the point where
the trail was broken. A second time
he picked up the old trail as he circled
and started down the field. This time
he didn't go all the way. He began
to realize that that scent was old. He
went back to the point where he had
lost it. He worked this way and that,
but he failed to find the fresh scent
You see, he didn't go quite far enough
across the old trail to find the spot
where Reddy had landed at the end Of
his jump.
