six cuts above a pongo, or army

OUT" ON A LIMB
(WITH- BILL. SMILEY)
• A newspaper article suggests
that, in view of the changing needs
of national defense, the Canadian
fighter pilot will soon be dead as
the dodo, as extinct as a sailmak-
er'sapprenticee.
* *
If it is true, and I suppose it
I'm glad. The Canadian fighter
pilot had . a brief but glorious
history in two wars. It is better
for the species to .vanish with its
glamor intact than to degenerate,
with the rapid change in aerial
warfare, into a mere adjunct to a
push-button.
* *, * p
A peculiar breed., the fighter
pilot was spawned, almost by ac-
cident, during World War I. Pilots
doing reconnaissance patrols start-
ed taking pot shots at each other
with revolvers. Next thing you
know, the sky was full of death -
or -glory types fighting incredible
duels, creating fantastic legends.
* * *
It was about this time -that the
fighter pilot began thinking he was
a hot -shot. With the Poor Bloody
Infantry bogged in the mud and
being slaughtered by the thous-
ands, the newspapers of the day
looked around for something color-
ful to relieve the grim reality of
the annihilation.
* * *
Suddenly the fighter pilot found
himself the darling of the press,
the toast of the folks at home.
Unable to assimilate the carnage
of the front lines; the public im-
agination fastened on this gallant,
dashing knight of the air, forever
tackling insuperable odds, running
up his score of kills, and generally
presenting 'a romantic picture of
war.
All this adu a• non vires t' iatight•
by the pilots. They wnoere brave,
but not braver than the next man.
.:_were akMot; but no rrnore:.so,
than :tea good= arti leisy nil tr..-_ :_ Bu
they were yoking, and" hunfan.
Placed in the limelight, they adopt-
ed a certain swagger, a consciously
casual dress, a
slightly htl swashbuck-
ling
uck-
ling air,, and. gradually, the opinion
that they were an elite among the
uniformed hordes. They never got
over it,
The whole business was accentu-
ated, ,betwen the two -big Wars, by
a great deal of romantic -tripe
written about them, and eagerly
devoured by• schoolboys,. of whom
I was one.. Ah, it was heady stuff:

.* * 1 ,.
This attitude was infuriating to
others, but, like .all snobbery,
rather pheasant if you were one of
those doing the snubbing. Fighter
pilots were a closeknit' eoznpany, l
despite the fact that they were
widely scattered. • They, kept • tabs
en their friends through the con-
stant Changing of squadron, per-
sonnel. They lived aloof from
other fighting men, sought the
company of none but their own.
They had their own private lan-
guage, almost incomprehensible to
others. .
Kflo Church.Group
Holds April -Meet
Preslbyterian Church held its- April
meeting on Tuesday afternoon of
last week with the president, Mrs.
G. Schaefer, presiding.
The program was arranged by
Mrs. W. G. MacEwan and Mrs. C.
K. Saunders. Miss X. Matheson
read the Scripture and meditation
and prayer was offered by Mrs. J.
Thomson.
Mrs. R. Sperling recited a poem,
and Mrs. W. G. MaoEwan presented
an interesting summary of the
Heine Mission work of tbhe Presby-
terian Church.
Mrs. G. M'aeEwanf brought thanks
from the officers of the Cancer So-
ciety to those who assisted in the
canvass.

They even looked alike. Top
button undone, no buttons polish-
ed, hair worn long, hats bashed in,
-uniforms • slightly .shabby, and a
moustache, if possible, the' bigger
the better. They affected silk
scarves while flying, and wore half -
Wellington boots. Their interests
were flying, beer and women, in
that order.
* *
Looking back, they were a collec-
tion oforather foolish young men,
with little to recommend them
except a certain skill at guiding a
few hurtling tons of metal through
the air, and the ability to aim and
fire guns at objects in the air and
on the ground.
Yet they WERE romantic; how-
ever realistically we look at them.
They had a flair for living. They
had the dash and spirit of cavalry.
Laconic Cossacks, they were. And
they were likely , fhe last fighting
men the .world will see, to seek
out the enemy and engage him in
single combat.
* * *
They were not braver than other
then, but they, had a great pride.

If 'the Canadian fighter pilot
on the way out, let's not shed
any tears over him. Let's just be
glad he was abound when he was.
And if that stoutish, balding fel-
low, pushing forty, happens to tell
yoLthat he, was a fighter pilot,
don't 'feel .sorry for him. He had
his day, and it -:was a good ,one.
