Aviators mt must be immune to mal de mer. Tests Be for near-sightedness and far-sighted- to ness, color perception graded to finest blc tones and vision follow. Vision must be normal. Heart, lungs and blood pressure must be perfect. Feet must be well shaped and the nervous system normal. Chest expansion must ^ be three or more inches inflated. . 1 Equilibry tests are next.

Teeth must be good and sound. Nasal passages must be clear. Hearing must be perfect. The tick of a watch must be heard at five feet. Across a 25- ?a foot space the applicant must differ- gT0 entiate between "glass" and "grass" ^a and "brass" spoken in a barely audi- * ble whisper. Equilibrium, the seventh sense, an must be developed. The other ^ senses must be perfect for one im- * paired sense injures the "balance sheet." The applicant is seated in a revolving chair much the same as a barber's or dentist's chair. He is ni( whirled ten times in each direction as eri fast as the chair will revolve with m< eyes shut.

Glencorse wood was the uthern extremity of the line ken by the British in Friday's offence and since it commanded the surundinp the Germans determined to Rain it at any cost. The Germans eeeded their infantry advance by i intense bombardment from puns of 1 calibres and then sent troops forird under a heavy barrape.

Through the sale of Liberty Loan nds the United States is borrowing pe sums of money from its citizens, business men, farmers, bankers, ipe earners, merchants, manufacturi. The povernment collects this >ney and disburses it in two ways, rt it expends itself and part it ins our allies. The United States d these other povernments spend it r American products and American jor una it goes DacK airectiy into b hands of the people, the Amerin business man, farmer, banker, ige earner, merchant and manufacrer. This is the cycle. John Smith the rmer and Thomas Brown the wage rner each has purchased a Liberty an Bond paying down the initial yment of 2 per cent. On June 28th ey made the 18 per cent payment, positing the amount in their banks d sending checks to the Federal Rerve Bank of their district. The :deral Reserve Bank collects the eck and redeposits the money with e local banks. Later the Treasury spartment draws against it and the )ney is again lodged with the Fedal Reserve Bank. It is almost imjdiately withdrawn from the Fedal Reserve Bank either by the Unit States or by some foreign govern?nt engnged in war with Germany which the United States has adnced money and is paid out for nerican products or labor. Some of is spent for farm products and raw iterial, and some of it for manufacred products, thus going back into e hands of American citizens. Therefore the money paid in by e above mentioned John Smith and lomas Brown on June 28th in part yment of their Liberty lean Bonds ly have gotten into their hands in ne to make up part of their paysnts made July 30th. o years college training Athletes 10 excelle<l in school are particularly sired and it is well to have a pcrnctory knowledge at least, of autojbiles and motorcycles and the theetical functions of motors.
