If there is such clause in any insurance policy
that compels a pilot to fly low, it should be
thoroughly investigated and discontinued at
once. Anyone who has ever been up in the
air knows the real danger is the low flying not
the high flying.
When you consider the few accidents they
have had in Europe, it is an appalling indict-
ment of this country that such things can happen.

be paid for the time they fly, but be given a
better income to live on In fact the number
Of hours they are allowed to fly should be cur

open to the public should be started at once.

W. +. Ellis. re m m Der. at
this season of patriotic thoughts, how
Washington. Jefferson, Lincoln and
Wilson were maligned during their
lifetime. The baser passions of the
many have often thwarted the great
ness Of q leader.
But Israel accepted Joshua. The
old breed of malcontents had died
OF during the 40 years of wandering
God. the ever-patient. had to wait
for new generation fit for the con-
quest Of Canaan. To Joshua's ring
ing Go forward" they gave ready
assent. They were men of the stun
Of which great nations are made.
The Genius Of Democracy.
Joshua, whose name Is the same as
Jesus, in the spirit Of his great Prede-
'cessor and of his great Successor
laid down the law Of life for a con-
quering people, Fear Jehovah and
serve Him in sincerity and truth" He
made his own position clear in the
ringing words, "As for me and my
house, we will serve Jehovah" And
in an outburst of religious fervor, fired
by q great example, the people cried,
I'VE also will serve Jehovah; for He
Is our God"
Therein We have the fundamental
requirement Of democracy-a people
united in loyalty to the will Of God.
There is q lot of piffie being written
nowadays about the "ideology" Of
democracy. The stern truth abides-
and these are words to ponder-that
without theocracy we cannot have
democracy; before there can be
brotherhood there must be father
hood. It is not in the nature OF man
to submit himself to the great inspi-
rations and inhibitions Of democracy
unless he has first yielded himself to
the will Of the King of Kings. Essen
TALLY, democracy Is a spiritual express
sion Of the noblest qualities of human
life.

and 1t |. my deepest conviction as q
