A Hpoclnl writer lined his Imdgo to

he liaplorod the privilege of making
an imconl. The aviator looked ever

"Two hnndrod , " muokly replied the
Hpeelnl romancer.
"This only carries a pnHBOiiKor of
ISO pounds. "
"Can't you lie two of those biplanes
together ? " Inquired tlio rotund man.
The vocabulary Intiodiicod by avi

"pylon. " The pylons are ITi-font tow-

Ono of the features of the aviation
moot Is the battalion of boy scouts ,
ciunpod on thd Held. Ostensibly they
; ire there as messengers. They bavo
I bo run of the grounds , their uniforms
entitling them to go anywhere. A
i.l raw vote was taken today to learn
if any of the dally attendants of tlio
moot bad scon a boy scout doing any
messenger boy work. Nobody had.
\Vhllo the sensational flights wore In
progress and aerial history is making ,
they are wrestling all over the Hold.
The boys are each allowed seven ! y-
11 ve cents a day for rations. The
cheapest dishes in the restaurant are
corned beef and eabbngo or beef
stow , at slxty-iivo cents a copy. Cof
fee Is ten cents. The scouts are in re
bellion today because they have been
able to afford nothing but stow and
corned hoof. Today a lit tie negro
boy scout appeared with a illino ho
bad scouted and with hia daily allow
ance made for a portion of chicken
