"Captains Alcock and Brown, in addition to having a low powered rather alow machine Just capable of rlalng with the necessary supply of gasoline and necessitating the dropping of tbelr undercarriage before altitude could be attained, had only the usual navigation instruments of tho period, a compact, sextant, dividers, protractor and parallel rulera, with marine charts and tables.

The representative of the governor general, the prime minister, the cabinet, the naval, military and air foroe officials reflecting the functions of government, the representatives of foreign governments, of church and state ln Canada, all undertook the alow, solemn march behind the bier. Through streets that were thronged with a silent, reverent populace, tney prooeeded in endless column.

At the Cartier-MacDonald monument, the moet moving spectacle of the entire pagesnt was enacted. THE MARCH PAST The gun carriage, conveying the flag-draped coffin, was drawn up In the broad apace by tbe monument. The Infantry escort, resting on their arms reversed, stood motionless on either side of the rosd, and behind the bier stood the chief mourners. To tbe accompaniment of pipes and drums and brass bands, regiment attar regiment, each one preceded by its own battalion, war veterana marched past the bier, saluting It as they went by. The young soldiers of the militia, tho old soldiers of the Great War, the still older veterans who had fought at Paardeberg and ln the Transvaal, stepped along with their meticulous "eyes right" to the flag- draped coffin. With tbe approach to the end of the long column oame the main body of veterans of the Great War, tha men whom Sir Arthur Currie had led.

In the next office, thieves are burglar* azlng the aafe Lenl goes to Kruger. He demands recognition as her husband, she refuses but he says he wlU walffor her to reconsider.

During the month the sun appeared only 12 days and the total hours of sunshine was 33 ss compared with 39, the average for a 18 year period. While lt was overcast and cloudy the weather was abnormally warm and dry. The maximum of 51 degrees was six degrees higher tban the average and the total rainfall of 1.33 inches was 1.73 Inches less than an average for 13 years. Rain fell on seven days. The wind reaohed Its greatest velocity on the 30th when It blew 21 miles per hour from the south. The sunshine for the month was as follows: Date NOV. 3 Nov. 4 _ Nov. 6 Nov. 6 - Nov. 8 Nov. 83 ..*.-- Nov. 34 Nov. 35 Nov. 36 Nov. 38 Nov. 39 NOT. 30 - Hours .... 4 .... 3 _.. 6 knob and stalked into the room. His profile, dimly revealed ln tbe fslnt light behind the last row of seats, hsd the sharp outline of a portrait stamped on bronzeTherc was time yet for him to turn back from this projection of self into the affairs of other people. Lenl Luneska bad virtually told him to keep bis hands off. A remnant of that quality called common sense urged blm to forget the whole business. It was not a pleasant thing to got mixed up In. Nevertheless, the knob turned under his sinewy hand and Lucky Cavanaugh stepped into the room and closed the door behind him. Karl Kruger stared at him bailie - crently from the depths of an over- slned leather chair. In this room of soft lights and theatrical luxury the murky-looking jnarf glowered silent defiance. "Oct up," said Cavanaugh harshly, "and bring that filthy hat along with you. You're leaving herel" Two hectic spots began to burn ln Kruger's cheeks. His claw-like flngere clutched the fat arms of thc chair, "Oh, no," he cried with a soiled voice. "I'm not to bo gotten rid of so easy! You might be one of those big rich friends of Lenl Luneska's but you don't get rid of Karl Kruger. A man like me has his rtjht* and I'm going to *tay right here till I get fchem. I'm not afraid ol you-J'ra not afraid of anybody 1 You can beat me but you cannot silence me unless you kill me." Cavsnaugh's eyes were steel. What Karl Kruger had said waa the exact truth. Only murder would guarantee his silence. Deliberate murder was something thst Cavan- augh was not prepared to admin- later. "It's your o*n life you're gambling with, Kruger," he said evenly. "Nobody has said anything abou t murdering you, but you're not going to stay around here tnd humiliate Mlss Luneaka. Furthermore, you'.e not going to spill your rotten story about her to anybody. You can be silenced so quickly lt would make your head swim." Kruger's narrow Ups drew back over yellow teeth. Perhaps the grimace was meant for a smile. The flanges of hie thin nostrils widened aa he drew a breath with a weedy whistling sound. "You smell like the perfume she bsd on," he said derisively. "You've been olose to her tonight—maybe you're one of her sweethearts. Thst mesne nothing to me. You do not bluff me, mister, because there is nothing left for me to be afraid of. 1 You are dealing with a desperate motionless lump of cold and heavy man, mister. It will do no good lead.

INSTITUTE SALE REALIZES $65 CHAPTER EIGHT Lenl's oomplete change swept through Cavsnaugh's warm mood like a rush of oold air. Her smile dazzled him, but, suddenly, she seemed as remote and unattainable as her own moving photograph on - silvered screen. He knew women as men of his type inevitably know the other sex, but there was a fathomless quality ln tbls golden creature • that filled him with a achool boy's sense of awkwardness. If hs persisted he had tbe uncomfortable conviction that she would begin laughing at him and end with scorning. Already he had had more from Lenl Luneska than he hsd any right to expect. The devil of It wae tbst she had lit a flame that he oould not quench with the water of common sense. She aat ln the box sgaln beside Douglas Oates, straight and Immobile as though a steel skeleton within her flesh held her body in place.

Tomorrow Karl Kruger would reach with his clutching hands snd atrip her of all fame, all respect, all everything. Wtth her mind's eye she saw whst would happen — the cancellation of her contract, the burning publicity, the mock sympathy as she stood outside the barred studio doors. Douglas Oates leaned close to her. "A great picture dear," he whispered. "There Is no one like you on the screen. You are supreme." She did not answer him* What did it matter? Tomorrow lt would be all over. Her taste of glory bad been ao verv brief before the cup bsd been dashed from her Ups. Douglas Gates, with his eyes oh the screen hsd not notloed her pale and set face. Tomorrow would be tbe end. As quietly as possible she would slip out of Hollywood and return to the obscurity from which sbe had risen. There wae not ewn the consolstlon of wealth.

Her mind wss made up. Kruger could tell his story wherever he pleased. She would not be present In Hollywood when the mud began to spatter. 1 1, 1 For a man of his height and weight. Lucky Cavanaugh moved with a singularly light and elastic step. In the carpeted corridor behind the balcony he encountered a grim sentinel ln an usher's uniform. , "Is Slug around?"

His philosophy — from his own view point—wu perfectly reasoned out. "Exactly what Is It," demanded Cavanaugh, "tbat you want?" "I want money — I want Lenl Luneska and everything that goes with her!" vas the brawn answer. "If you repreeent her, I do not mind In the least telling you exactly what sbe lt. Bhe ls a plain oommon " The sentence was never finished. Lucky Cavanaugh's fist, hard and solid as a rock, smashed sgainst Kruger's teeth.

ASIA AWAKENING FAST Civilization started in the East and gradually traveled west. Our oldest civilization was probably in China and worked eastward to Europe, then from Europe to America, and now apparently it is crossing the -Pacific again to the Orient. Certainly not for centuries has Asia been in auch a turmoil as today. The nations of the East are developing a new national consciousness. They are getting over their inferiority complex. From Turkey on the one side to Japan on thc other, Asia is seething with unrest, breaking away from old customs and old habits, determined to show their equality with the Western nations. The latest issue of the National Geographic Magazine has an interesting article on the history now in the making under the title "The Continent of Superlatives." The magazine points out that in Palastine thousands of Jews arc seeking to carve out a new home from the ancient homeland of their race, while Arabs, whose ancestors have looked upon the land as their own for centuries, are striving to maintain their foothold. Arabia is being consolidated into a kingdom covering the major portion of the immense peninsula. Rejuvenated Turkey and modernized Persia are breaking with the past and are introducing Western ideas and methods and equipment. Thc Soviet Union is developing its vast Asiatic domain, setting up new governmental units for the numerous racial strains; extending railroads and highways; building dams and irrigation projects. Great Britain still guards India's northwest frontier as alertly as she did when Kipling's "Man Who Was" stumbled across the border into Peshawar. Japan extends her influence and her economic penetration on the mainland, beyond absorbed Korea, into Manchuria, south of the Great Wall itself. China simmers with her three capitals, her war lords, her treaty ports and foreign patches. France makes more secure her colonial domain in Indo-China; Siam has her revolutions, mostly bloodless; the Philippines debate independence; and the Dutch, master colonial administrators, steadily develop their far Eastern island empire. PEERING INTO INFINITY According to a London newspaper an English firm has just completed construction of a 74-inch reflecting telescope for the new observatory near Toronto which is to be operated in conjunction with the University of Toronto. When this instrument is installed, Canada will have the two largest telescopes in the British Empire and the second largest in the world. At the moment, the world's largest is the 100-inch reflector at the Mount Wilson observatory in California. The largest telescope in Canada at present is that at the national observatory jit Ottawa, a 72-inch instrument. # Speculations as to the possible limit on the size of the telescope is aroused by the announcement that a 200-inch reflector is planned for an observatory to be set up in the clear air on one of the higher peaks in the Rockies in California. Unlike the mirrors of other reflecting telescopes, this reflector is to be made of fused quartz, a company offering to make it for the mere cost of labor and materials. Even that, however, is likely to be quite expensive. But its cost will be nothing compared to the expense of making a 300- inch reflector which has been proposed, also in the States, if a millionaire can be found willing to foot the bill which is estimated will run close to $12,000,000. Nor is this the limit of imagination. Prof. Todd, well- known American astromer, has put forward seriously a proposal for a 50-foot reflecting telescope which he believes'could be constructed for quite a modest sum. His idea is to utilize a disused mine shaft in the Andes for the tube and rotating mercury for the mirror. The focus of this instrument would be 1200 feet.

MILTON C WOU THE FATAL DISCARD A hand which recently appeared ln large duplicate was the cause of a great deal of discussion as to bidding and play, both of which were intensely Interesting. North and South were vulnerable, and the cards were distributed as follows: THAT BODY OF YOURS By JAMES W. BARTON. M.D. MENTAL HEALTH DEPENDS UPON PHYSICAL HEALTH From time to time you hear some people say thnt to have some physical Infirmity Is an advantage. They wUl point to Milton who was blind, to Byron with his club foot, and to Edison who was* deef. Now these Infirmities may have given them more time to think, a better concentration lt is true, but there Is no question but, generally speaking, you and I do our best mental work when we are at our best physically. Did you ever try to do some real constructive thinking when you were tired physically? You simply couldn't do lt. Did you ever notice how your work, your problems, your very hard tasks, seem like mountains when you are tired, and like ordinary hills when you were rested. If you overeat, your body becomes filled with acid wastes that tire you Just as much aa lf you had done some hard physical work. Similarly lf you try to get along on three or four hours sleep instead of the seven or eight you need, the wastes that tire, the wastes that would have been removed from the body by rest, are stilt present In the morning and you start the day tired. Further. If you are at work or play, at the movies, at an exciting ♦MIMJ ■AtH 03 5|*7-? ♦Q-7 ♦ NOME *iVU ♦ 5*5-3 ♦ •U-J-IM-3-. WHAT DO YOU THINK? game, or are tensed with the day's doings, then you create acid poisons that only rest can remove. If you have any llttle infection from teeth, tonsils, sluggish Uver, slow intestine, you ■ wlU feel a Uttle tired all tbe time. My thought of course is that lf you and I are to be bright, to be at our best mentally, the condition of the body must be at lte best because the poison of wastes Interferes with the proper action of every cell including the cells of the brain. If then your body means not only the enjoyment of physical health, but the ability to be your best mentally, able and willing to meet life's problems, why not think more about the body. I dont mean that .you should worry about the body, about your food, about the amount of air you get, about the regularity of the intestine, but that you take a wholesome Intelligent Interest ln the way your body is or ls not doing Its best work for you. It simply means getting the right kind and amount of food, getting a little outdoor exercise dally, and getting enough but not too much sleep. -* You know what your body .needs; lt la Just a matter of will power to see that these needs are met. Mental health depends upon physical health. At some of the tablea the hand waa played at a contract of three No Trumps with North the Declarer, At theee' tables the' bidding was: South one Club, West one Heart North two Diamonds, East two Spades, South three Clubs, West pass, North three No Trumps. These Declarers made their contract and an extra trick with no difficulty. At other tables East, not being vulnerable, overcalled the three No Trump contract with four Spadea, ln which case some of the North-South players doubled and aet the contract three tricks. At four tables South, being influenced by his honor holding ln the Club suit, bid five Clubs. Three of these players were defeated, but one successfully fulfilled his contract ln the following manner. The Seven of Spades was led to trick l, North played the Jack, East the King, and South ruffed with the Deuce. To tricks 2 and 3 the Aoe and King of Cluba were played, drawing the adverse trumps. To trick 4 a smsll Diamond was led and won with North's King, to trick 5 a small Spade was led and ruffed with South'e Trey. South then cashed two Clubs. At this point, the remaining cards were distributed aa follows: Twenty Years Ago (From The Dally News of December 6. IBIS) Vernon's new 120,000 armory was opened wltb a regimental ball last week.

While it is true the larger the telescope, the greater the vision, doubt may exist in some minds as to whether much of real value will be learned by being able to photograph a few million more of the stars. With the human eye about 5000 can be seen. With the 100-inch reflector at Mount Wilson about 1,500,- 000,000 could be photographed. It is estimated that an additional 500,000,000 may be caught by the camera when the proposed 200-inch reflector is in action. What will these reveal? The present instrument at Mount Wilson hag enabled astronomers to measure the size of distant stars and has resolved apparent nebulae into clouds of separate stars. So far, scientists have only gone some hundreds of millions of light years into space and have discovered a remarkable uniformity and similarity. Will anything different be found further away? Probably not. But man will not be satisfied until he has peered into infinity itself.

Dishonor Worse Than War, Writer Emphasizes View To the Bditor: Sir—There have been several letters in the "News" lately denouncing war and in so far aa they may Induce people to hate war, showing lt ln the honor of its naked reality, stripped of Its glamor and adventure they are all to the good. But extreme statements often defeat their own purpose and produoe the opposite extreme. The autocratic rule of the Cztr* produced oom munism and communism In turn brought Fascism to oombat it. The war made a great number of pacifists and again the pacifists excite the fascists to greater activity and violence. To speak of the great war as a 'mass murder" and to Imply all parties to lt were equally to blame is a reproach to our returned men, and lt Is a tragedy when veterans themselves take that view of lt. It takes from them the satisfaction of duty done, which is about all that la left to cheer those who are broken or an suffering ln any way from the results of war and lt must be the last straw to tbe bereaved mother to hear that her sons have died In vain, or for worse than nothing after having found some consolation ln believing they had given their lives in ths cause of freedom snd Justice and to save the world from a horrible fate. It would be a sad thing to take that belief from her lf lt wss only a comforting delusion, but lt is cruel to take lt away when lt ls the truth. Appalling as the calamity of the war was the winning of the war prevented a far greater calamity. Honor to those who accomplished . they have not suffered in vain. If aU that makes life worth Uvlng had been taken away what would have been the use of an existence of shame, servility and degeneration. It waa discovered to have been the Intention of tbe central powers to attack Britain after they had disposed of France and Belgium, so that lt was to Britain's advantage to enter the war when she did. Therefore some claim she entered ♦ NONE ♦J-J-lfl ♦ NONE the war for purely selfiM. reasons and ridicule the Idea that keeping her treaty with Belgium had anything to do with It. By some Incomprehensible method of reasoning they claim that because lt waa to her advantage to keep her treaty she should have broken It. Theodore Roosevelt, referlsg to hia own country, spoke of "the dark daye of our shameful neutrality." Would not Britain's neutrality bave been far more shameful? And when war would finally have been forced upon ber a guilty conscience would have been a poor state ot mind ln which to face the enemy. The lnqlultous secret treaties mads during the war were the fault of Individual men in a atate of desperation, not the fault of the nation, nor of the army, who knew nothing of them. They did not make the war futile neither did they affect previous treaties. It ahould be noted that the reoent exposures of blunders and folly in the oonduct of the war were not made until most of those accused have died. Perhaps lf they were living they m could ahow things ln a different Ught. Happily there are few peopto now who glorify war for Its own sake. A nation who starts a war, or who by unbearable actions, forcea another nation to begin Is guilty ot a terrible crime. But lf a nation persists ln that course no pacifist haa yet explained how other nation can prevent lt. Then Is no International police force, and as yet there ls no "parliament of war." The clergy are accused of preaching peace ln peace time and ot urging men to fight ln war thne. Do not sensible people use their Influence and take the greatest oare to prevent a fire starting but lf lt starts ln spite of them do they leave lt to Its own course of destructions? No, tbey flgbt lt. Several times during the war It waa said certain troops aaved the allies from defeat on particular occasions. Those who saved the day at a later date did not dlsplse those who saved the day earlier ln the war. So now when ws have new troubles to face don't let us say the men who won the war fought and died ln vain because thsy did not solve our present difficulties. Let us do our part as they did thelr's. R-B.W. VERSE When South led the six of Cluba and West was obUged to discard, he had to give up all hope of setting the contract. If he discarded a Diamond, North would discard s Heart and to the following trick South would lead a small Diamond and duck ln the North hand, thereby losing only one Diamond and one Heart. If West discarded a Heart, South would lead a small Heart and would still lose only one Heart and one Diamond.

EGYPT It is difficult for anyone without a very close and Intimate knowledge of Ireland to underatand why that country ahould have so long tolerated De Valera. His leadership has not been particularly happy and he can not be said to have brought either prosperity or unity to the country. Ireland's relations with England—and although technically Ireland wanted complete Independence, one can not suppose that the ordinary Irishman desired to sever all relations, political and economic, with the Mother Country—-have degenerated in a aurprlslng manner, and commercially at any rate, a state bordering on war now exists. That has obviously done nobody sny good, either ln Ireland or ln Kngland. and Its responsibility must be laid directly upon De Vslera. It ls difficult to tlnd anything more to say about the present Irish gov> ernment than.

"I do not believe," says Stanley Baldwin, that there Is any man who la good enough and knows enough to exercise dictatorial powers over , a free people." This statement may ' well be taken as a warning to any i oountry where autocratic powers ars being exercised today, whether It bs I Germany, Russia or the United ' States. Dictatorship, perhaps of somewhat benevolent kind, ls being < exercised In the United States and , lt was ln speaking of that oountry that Mr. Baldwin made his statement.

B.C—WBBOTSDAT MOBNINO, DECEMBEB I, UU • PAW MTW rORONTO LEAFS AND BOSTON VICTORS OCCER CLUBS C1B EMPIRE rack Elevens of Old Country Seeking More Stars [■ONDON, Dec. 8 (CP)—Never In i history of association football tbls oountry bu there been suoh dearth of first-class playen u w, ssys a special writer In ths jtt ing Life. tto fill tbs gaps wblch inevitably Wr in tbe best regulated league gnt* managers ars beginning to nb tbe Empire ln their search promising recruits. Most of them i being taken from South Africa. 'the disadvantage of that domln- i,. but several hsve been taken tn Canada. Rubs tbat havs capable playets 11 not psrt with them exoept at wbltant prloes and even tbs mon- bags of ths Arsenal cannot alys command tbs players tbey p. Tbs trouble Is, In tbs eyes of I writer, that young players In » old country ars not coming mg last enough. Even thoss avail- to ars not, In many casss. getting |lr chances becsuse some clubs t too impatient to devote the osssary tlms to polishing thsm. ■/tth tbs greatest field for renting, the continent, barred by l ministry of labor's ruling alhst alien players, tbe clubs are ruing to any part of the Bmplre NM association football ls playsd. ts visit of tbs South African N& ln 1924-36 was something ■ ttl eye-opener. .NAMAN8 MOW Liverpool has set tbs paes for Kplne Importations, the Anfield tb tbls season having taken Nle- nhuya, outside right, Oarr. Argyle Ot to South Africa for Aitkin and Ainsworth. and Chelsea brought Olbb from Transvaal. From Canada. Plymouth secured thsir oenter-half, Palrley, Olasgow Rangers bave taken George Jen- Una from Montreal Carsteol, goalie. and Manchester united has brought MoManua from Toronto Scottish | Burnley secured Charles, a back, from Trinidad. Many of these playen hsvs oome over merely on trial, which tn itself demonstrates ths shortage of home- produced playen. That it should pay clubs like Chelsea, tailing the tint division. Burnley and Argyle to bring playen thouaanda of miles on trial Is eloquent of the situation. CLUB PROACIIINOS The Sporting Ufe wVlter expressed tb* opinion South Africa bM a good cause for complaint at ths loss of so many valuable players in the psst few yesrs. Not long ago English cluba wen "raided" by continental teams in somewhat the same fashion, and then wen loud outcries when Andy Wilson and Alex Cheyne of Chelsea and some lesser lights went to French clubs. Hs continues: "There seems something wrong about this poaching of players by clubs wbo themselves an tenoed In by protective baMer* such as appertain to, few other sports—or businesses for that matter. Within tbs magic circle ot tbe league no player may be approached, mucb leu tempted away, so long si he Is on a club's books, but South Afrloa seetns wide open to tbe poacher. "Then Is another equally grave upset of tbs matter While clubs sre content to scour tbs earth for ready-made plsyera, what ls to become of embryonic home talent? Surely the plan ot Tottenham Hotspur, who. like some other clubs, run thsir own nursery, and generally speaking, school thetr own playen Is the more sans and mon en- during) The Spun' position at tbs top of tbe English football world, ths ruult of encouraging youth and enthusiasm, points the way to football progreu and prosperity" A aew pleoe of laboratory apparatus enablu englneen to meuure the effect of sudden blows on steel beams, thus aiding tbem tn designing brldgu and other structures to resist shocks. The Audit Bureau of Circulations WHY? Long and painfully expensive experience over many years taught advertisers who watched most carefully . the profits from their advertising that only Paid Circulation brought full results. They found that a newspaper with five thousand subscribers who took enough interest in reading it to be willing to pay for it "pulled" better results than a newspaper with 10,000 readers who cared so little for the publication that 75% of them were getting it free. The figures are no exaggeration—In the pre-A.B.C. days of newspaperdom on this continent many newspapers cared little whether their so-called subscribers paid or not. Their interest wu chiefly in a large "circulation" figure designed to attract advertisers. This figure was often exaggerated and it included waste on press, unsold copies, voucher copies sent to distant advertisers, thousands of copies sent to "subscribers" who never paid. To an advertiser such circulation was virtually valueless. Since the Audit Bureau of Circulations was organized things have changed. For Paid Circulation only does a newspaper which is a member of the A.B.C. receive credit. All copies that are not paid for are deducted from the total press run to arrive at Net Paid Circulation. It is only the number of papers readers are sufficiently interested in to pay cash for that are of value to advertisers. Few people take much interest in a publication thrown at them for nothing. They are little interested in the news matter or articles and are equally uninterested in the advertising. Advertisers know this. Most national advertisers purchase space only in publications which have their circulation figures audited by the A.B.C. These adver- i Users will not buy give-away or throwaway circula- I tion. They frown on circulation obtained by means of prem- | iums or contests or any other method than straight wiling of publications on their actual merits, which means their interest to their readers. j More than 15 years of experience since the A.B.C. was organized have proved them to be right. It is I only paid circulation which gives assurance of genuine reader interest. I The Nelson Daily News is a member of the Audit I Bureau of Circulations, whoee auditors, with head- | quartera in Chicago, check everything in** connection I with circulation. The A.B.C. is maintained by adver- [ Users, advertising agencies and newspapers and the I auditors make aure that the cirulation figures are I accurate. They check newsprint invoices, they check I mailing lists of subscribers, they check payments by I subscribers, carriers and agents, they eliminate from [ the total distribution all papers that are not paid for. [Only "Net Paid" counts. That alone is considered of I value to the advertiser. ROSSLAND ICE HOUNDS YOUNG Frane of Kenora, and Janowski of Unity Are on Hand TRAIL, B.

That experiment proved a failure. In 1929 he planted tl/ remaining 10 pounda and by 1931 he had sufficiently Improved and tested It to send a aample tn Chicago which took 88th place. Undaunted, laaackson tried again ln 1982, when he moved up to 12th position. In Elfros district weather oondltlona were ideal this year for wheat growing and there hae never been auch a good crop in the history of the district. 400 TO 500 BUSHELS laaackson threshed between 400 and S00 bushels of Howard wbeat from about lo acres of land, cropping for the third time the homestead he had fanned slnoe 1900.

The "Red" enemy fleet, ot three capital ships, two aircraft carriers, three cruisers, 31 destroyers snd 84 seroplsnss. sought to bombard a defended base, represented by the town ot Elle on the shore of the Firth of Forth, Scotland. The defence "was entrusted to sn sir srmy of nine squadrons, employing rather less thsn 90 flying boats, bombers abd torpsdoplanes.

(9108) SEE SEWING TABLE AND HAVE CUP OF TEA AT THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH BAZAAR FRIDAY AFTERNOON. (9519) Most spectacular were the raids of the "Hart" air squadrons. At a height of 8,000 feet one of theee units, moving at cruising speed of 180 miles and hour, slipped through a gap ln the clouds and straddled two of the world's biggest battleships, the "Warsplte" and the "Malaya" with a pattern of 350- pound "bombs," simulated by light signals. Though the big ships went hard aport and continued turning, expert observers declare that tbey could not have escaped a large proportion of the "bombs." Yet more thrilling work wu planned. A second air squadron wu detailed for dlvlng-bomblng sttacks on the surface vessels. In this sensational manoeuvre no bomb sights sn employed, the aeroplane Itself is directed at the target below and the bomb is resleaeed when the pilot ls satisfied that the aim ls good and the aeroplane hu reach ed Its maximum diving speed of well over 300 miles an hour. Thus launched, the bomb gains additional penetrative power from the speed of the machine. In ll minutes from the moment of take-off the "Hart" squadron. In position 10,000 feet above the "Red" fleet, had separted Into four flights, each of three machines, for the breath-taking dive. As the leader of each flight drew abreast of the warship to be attacked he tilted over towards her in an abrupt "stalled" turn and swung down in a vertical dive towards the target. In less than 30 seconds thi •planes wero only 3,000 feet above their target, the "bombs" were released, and each pilot had begun to pull steadily out of the dive. Within eight minutes the unit had resumed formation Et more than 10,000 feet above the sea and wu heading for the coast. Actually every machine of the squadron had dived, released its bomb-load and begun to climb away ln 40 seconds from the Instant when the squadron leader first titled his machine In the signal attack. Torpedoplane attacks on the fleet, entrusted to a aquadron of biplanes, were equally effective. These craft released their missiles when moving about 30 feet above the surface at the bottom of a fut gradual dive. One battleship, the "Wamtte," was hit by six torpedoes, another—the "Malaya"—by one The "Renown" alone escaped. Meanwhile, the surfaoe ships with their oomplement of flying machines were engaged ln heavily anti-aircraft "fire" and ln aerial attacks on the, raiding 'planes which. In actual warfare, would undoubtedly have accounted for numbers of the machines. The exercise cannot be held conclusive ot tbe power of the aeroplane against the surface ship. Much hasty comment hss hailed the operations u proof of the supremacy of the flying machine—which ls seductively Inexpensive In comparison with battleship, cruiser or destroyer—and the Inevitable eclipse of the warship. The governing conditions were far too artificial to permit of such wild conclusions. How far the fleet can sustain a successful defenoe against the air raiders, particularly with the help of a really powerful Air Arm, is matter for much further experiment.
