Since May, 1918. no less than twenty-six
men have bsen killed in the
government's aerial mail service. The
mileage of that service was 1.000,000
miles.. This is a pioneer service and
the hazards are great. Compared with
with the tragedies of the railway mail
it is like a death sentence. But it is
being' extended, improved and mad
safer and in another season or two wili
be established where and how it can
serve its greatest good. Those who
have fallen have blazed the way for
permanence.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
There are several ways of using
baked ham. One of the best is to eat
it.
Honey may be used for sweetening
almost anything but a traffic cop.
Spaghetti should not be cooked too
long. About ten Inches is right.
A cold bath will be found more
pleasant if made with hot water.
Milwaukee Journal.
BAD BUSINESS
Father Duffy Is credited by the New
York World with this after-dinner
story :
"An old sexton asked me, 'Father,
weren't the Apostles Jews?' I said
they were. Puzzled, he demanded:
'Then how the deuce did the Jews let
go of a good thing like the Catholic
church and let the Eytalians grab it?"
The Outlook..
A RAY OF HOPE
Curate (at local football match):
"How do you think we shall get on?"
Captain: "Well, sir, our goal-keeper
ain't much use, our center-forward 'as
a gammy knee, and the left 'alf-back
may not turn up, but my brother Jim
Is refereeing for us." London Opin
ion. In general, the country is settling
down to normalcy, but there is con
siderable excitement among the poten
tial postmaster classes.
Now that there are no more boclc
beer s'gns, it is impossible for some
people to know when spring has come.
Ninety-nine times as many people
read about "shimmy" dancing as ever
see it. This greatly filters the shock.
