So rapidly has been the advance made during the last two years in aerial warfare that every. aviator now trained by the Royal Flying `Corps is put through a course coveg many phases of work. Not the least inter- esting branch of his studies: comes un- der the heading "Bombs" and "Bomb Sighting."' `Indeed, the fascination. and the skill 'this work involves, no less than the exigencies of aerial war- fare, have - made bombing a' highly specialized br,ancia of the service.. At the School of Military Aeronautics,. which is located at the Toronto 'Uni- versity, the facilities provided for training cadets in aerial bombing are unusually elaborate. In aiming to hit a given target with his bomb the aviator ha'a to -take into consideration. his altitude, the speed. at which he is travelling, the weight of his bomb and,the wind's power of deflection. This is a matter of nice calculation_., He cannot aim a bomb as he would a gun, so he must re- lease the bomb when the aeroplane ° reaches the right spot. To aid him in calculating this, he has a bomb -sight- ing. device. At the school of Military Aeronautics he learns thoroughly the use of this device from both the the- oretical and practical standpoint. For traiping cadets in bomb drop- ping a model aeroplane has •been.' eon structed, beneath which moves `a G tar- get painted to represent the appear- ance of the earth from a height of 4,000 feet. The target is electrically perated. The cadet .,by using the "joy -stick" and madder' controls of the model. aeroplane, which is stationary, moves the target : instead of his ma- chine. This gives the exact of edi of manoeuvring the aeroplane for posi-. tion above an -actual target as seen, from the air. Objectives can be clear- ly marked on this' target with chalk. When the cadet has sighted his given MORRIS Death of Mrs. Clegg,—At two o'- clock ore Monday afternoon, the spirit of Mrs. Joseph Clegg, 5th line of Mor- ris, took its flight.
