Which way is up 7 Which way is down/ Can you find the earth if you are lost in a rain aloud 7 A French flier recently, while at 22,000 feet altitude, became lost in a atorin. He wandered around in the clouds seeking a familiar landmark Which would guide elfin to the seater headquarters. While in the midst of a dense cloud, dodging up hill and down, he dropped his chronometer. I -de was surprised to see it fall "upward." He could not tell which was "up" and whish was "down," This French aviator, say the army medical officers, was "nearsighted" in his balance sonao and "deaf' in his equilibrial sense—in other words, was below normal in his acuity of sensing balance, Such an aviator might be re- sponsible for one of the unaccountable failures of reconnaissance material to reach headquarters. - On the other hand, an aviator with full normal balance sense may reach the ground safely even when deprived of vision entirely, This was brought to the attention of United States army officers in the case of Miller, a French 11 blind While aviator, who wasstricken w v ,s 7,000 feet above the ground. When describing his sensation, he sald: "Something seemed to bo guid- ing me," and he made a successful landing and is receiving for his, visionin the United S to -day States, dost v e -tes, Qualifications Required. No arm of the Service makes such exacting demands as does. aviation. First of all the 'successful applicant must be physically acceptable for mili- tary service. He must be sound in body and limb; normal in vision; hear- ing and color perception.. In addition, he must be naturally athletic and have a reputation for reliability, punctuali- ty and` honesty, a cool head in emer- gency; steady hand and sound body, with ,plenty of reserve, quick-witted, highly intelligent and tractable. An applicant may have all these qualifications and be familiar with the theory, and practice of military affairs, the practice of photography and wire- less telegraphy, a knowfedge'of map making and map reading, normal per- ception of color, steroscopic, vision, and yet, if helacks a full normal balance sense he would be disqualified for the service absolutely. A man may bo perfectly acceptable for any other arm of the service, yet be subnormal in this sense, and total- ly unfit to depend upon for the exigen- cies of aviation. When an individual is on terra firma his sole touch, his vision and his hear- ing are continuously contributing to his orientation, enabling hien (in con- junction with his balance sense) to maintain:himself in proper relation to his environment. His balance sense may be away below normal and yet with.the added help coming from these other sources the individual may live out his life without the realization of much of a handicap. . Balance Sense Most Important. When he attempts, however, to load the ;bird life his "muscle -joint and visceral sense" contributes nothing of valuable information for orientation, Vision is a big factor in accomplish- ing this air orientation, as he can see where the fields are and know definite- ly that that direction is down. When clouds, mists or dariness cut off, his vision; then he falls back solely upon his balance sense. This delicately at- tuned mechanism whose normal func- tionation informs him unerringly in water or in air, what his relative posi- tion IS in regard to the earth, guides him without the co-operation of any of the other senses. The successful flier does not neces- sarily, become a desirable man for military aviation service. This is, among other things, an important part of the signal service, The absence of full normal color perception would render absolutely unreliable the most skillful flier. Tile absence of full hear- ing or vision for distance would also exclude a 'man, A leaky heart valve, a high-strung, overworked nervous system, abnormal pulse pressure—all constitute insurmountable obstacles to his entrance into this branch of the service. What is Success? "He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children;+ who has filled his niche, has accomplished his task; who has left the wdrld better than he found it, whether„by an improved poppy, a per- fect poem or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always:looked for the best to oth- ers and given the best ho had; whose life was an inspiration, whose mem- ory a benediction.” Cut mint now and tie the stems up in bunches. to dry slowly in a well ven- tilated room shaded from the hot sun.

But be sure and get the right substitute for 'meat in a digestible form. Shredded Wheat Biscuit is the ideal substitute for meat. It is 100 per cent. whole wheat prepared in a digestible form. Two or three of these little loaves of baked whole wheat make a nourishing, satisfying meal at a cost of only a few cents. Delicious with milk or cream or fruits of any kind. Made in Canada. AIR-RAID VICTIMS. Innocent Martyrs of the German Cam- paign to Inspire Terror. The totals of the casualties among women and children in the air raids in England to the middle of August are as follows: Women killed Women wounded Children killed Children wounded 102 380 94 235 Is it any wonder that public indig- nation is at the boiling point over the assaults of Germany's air fleet upon unprotected places, preferably shore - resorts where many babes and inva- lids are to be found and retaliation is least likely?

Only the intensified detestation of mankind; *only the in- creased determination to extirpate a dynasty, a military system, a political philosophy that can conceive,and sanc- tion maneuvers so abhorrent to the least enlightened conscience.

The Autumn Fairs Should Include Ex- hibits of Fire -Fighting Equipment. The fire chiefs of Canada are alive of all Germany was centered in his to the necessity for education of the person—that he was the God-given general public in the enormous num- ber of fires in Canada and the conse- quent heavy monetary losses there- from. The fall fairs offer a ,very fa- vorable opportunity for furthering their educational plan and should be utilized. Exhibits of fire -fighting equipment, short talks on the danger of careless housekeeping, neglected chimneys, carelessness- with lights in barns and sheds, etc., will be helpful, Printed mottoes bearing the inform- ation of Canada's annual total of fire looses, as compared with other coun- tries, and the number of lives lost through .carelessness in the use of coal oil, gasoline, etc,, would be effective. To -day the fire chief's reputation depends upon his ability to prevent fires, not on his expertness in extin- guishing them after they break out. This result can only be achieved by ceaseless education of the public, con- tinual and rigid inspection of premises for fire risks and by the enforcement of by-laws providing for the abate- ment Of hazardous„conditions, THE -KAISER'S REAL POWERS PRESIDENT OF THE UNION OF STATES CALLED AN EMPIRE.

At first it seems that only the meta- physical German mind can grasp the distinction; yet the distinction is im- portant and in itself largely explains the German system. For the Kaiser, qua Kaiser, is really not a monarch at all, Sovereignty, that is, does not re- side in person. The German conception of a mon- arch is that of a man who in himself alone possesses sovereign power— who does not derive it from the people, from parliaments, from "the consent of the governed,' but possess, es it himself, as an appointment from Heaven, or at least from some mysti- cal source apart from those over whom he rules. Real Sovereigns of Germany. But the German Emperor possesses no such supernatural dignity. The German constitution describes him thus : "The presidency of the Union belongs to the King of Prussia, *ho bears the title of German Emperor." Here is a discovery, most astonishing to us of the West, for the Kaiser, ac- cording to the particular word used in the constitution, is apparently some new and strange kind of a President! He does not possess a single power that has not originated Outside of him- self—that lute ,not bean conferred up- on him. These powers are as precise- ly set down in a written constitution as are ItIr. Wil on's, and he must just as rigidly coniine himself to them. But Germany, as most people ]snow, does contain: a liberal assortment of monarchs—gentlemen whose power goes far back into history.
