And that incurs a lot of .remarks
from the man of the family who is
called upon to lend his strong arm.
Marietta J. got tired of getting
ready for company herself. So when
the question of remodeling came
up, she talked her husband into
building a guest house out in the
garden; a very plain little room
with a bath, but private and com-
fortable and completely equipped
for a guest to move in and settle
down without tearing the family
asunder. ,
They spent a minimum on the
guest house in the first place and

us that we have failed hopelessly.

lacks confidence in the word and

To the vision of peace bequeathed
to us by our fathers we must add a
sincere element of loyalty to the

San Diego, Calif.—Spain is a fiery
laboratory in which modern mili-
tary tactics—especially as regards
aircraft—are being tested.
Army air corps officers stationed
here have revealed that one of the
first lessons learned from the Span-
ish revolution is the extreme value
of pursuit planes.
"In the United States many strat-
egists have been inclined for the
last few years to discount the value
of the pursuit type of fighting
plane," one officer of the One Hun-
dred Fifty-fourth observation squad-
ron, who refused to permit his name
to be used, told the United Press.
"But the pursuit planes definitely
have come into their own in Spain."
Reports on Air Strategy.
Officers stationed here said for
months the War department has
been compiling confidential reports
evaluating certain types of strategy
used by both insurgents and loyal-
ists.
Among-the findings based on those
reports were said to be several of
a startling nature insofar as air-
craft is concerned.
It was said the Spanish war also
has given military officials, a chance
to observe the performance of fight-
ing aircraft designed and built by
the great powers of the world, and
to compare the efficiency of design,
armament and speed with similar
American craft.

expenditures for furniture had to
be even less than minimum. Mari-
etta’s husband sealed up the inside
himself with knotty pine boards
which they finished with thin shel-
lac. A maple chest and mirror and
a maple spool bed were hand-me-
downs but they did perfectly. Then
they bought" a little maple Tocker,
a small bedside table and a plain
green summer rug. Marietta had
some striped material—a ticking
weave material with a wide brown
stripe in it alternating with very
narrow stripes in beige, orange and
green. This she used for curtains
made on rings to slide back and
forth and take the place of both
window shades and curtains. For
the bedspread, she got unbleached
domestic and dyed it orange. The
same thing made a slip cover for a
small settee that had been dlseard-
ed from the front of the house but
seemed a very pleasant place to
sit here and added a lot of com-
fort to this small room. A built-in
bookcase painted green held guest
oddments and new magazines, good
books and smoking things. A built-
in closet was made to resemble a
peasant cupboard with doors paint-
ed in bright designs of green,

were tucked in and life was tran-
quil again, she had to take time
out for a tear or two. Which is all
right. It gets things out of a lady’s
system and girds her for struggles
to come.
But right in the midst of her weep,
Anna looked up suddenly, "That

If there’s anything that brings a
lady out of the dumps, it’s planning

Anna’s ideas about her kitchen
were excellent, we thought. * To be-
gin with, she had . the usual white
sink, refrigerator and stove, and her
linoleum was in several -shades pf
gray. And she wanted something
different and cool in her redecora-
tions. Here is _what she had in
mind and we approved'! A bright

.phairs. and the insides of the cup-
boards, white tor walls, woodwork
and outsides of the cupboards,
green for ceiling, green and white
checked gingham for curtains and
chair seats, white and green kitchen
pottery.
We wouldn’t mind dish washing
in a kitchen like that! And we think
it sounds nice enough to get any-
body out of the dumps.

The tiny, darting pursuit planes
have demonstrated, in the Spanish
civil war, time and time ageing it
was said, their ability to overcome
the heavier, but potent bombing
craft.
Carrying small sized bombs and
machine guns the little ships are
able to perform deceptive maneu-
vers around the more cumbersome
"flying fortresses” and evade the
heavier armament while disabling
the larger craft with sprays of ma-
chine-gun fire and the small bombs.
Then, too, it was pointed out. the
pursuit planes are particularly val-
uable in harassing concentrations of
troops on the ground by demoraliz-
ing them with machine-gun fire.
Army Orders Fast Ships.
Army officers here said the les-
sons of the Spanish war already
are being put to use in this country,
with the army having placed or-
ders for what were described here
as the "fastest pursuit planes in the
world."
Eighty-five of these little fighters
already are under construction at
•the Seversky Aircraft corporation
in the East, it was said.
Then, too, the army, according to
officers here, has developed what is
known in military circles as the
XFM-1. This plane, the officers say,
is capable of "overhauling any air
target thus far constructed."
This new XFM-1 carries a crew
of five men. Is operated by pusher
rather than tractor propellers—a
decided innovation in modem fight-
ing planes. This plane, the top speed
of which is a secret, is capable of
fighting at an altitude of 30,000 feet
of more. At least five, and possibly
more, heavy-caliber machine-guns
are mounted on this craft, it is said.

OF PEACE
In an address at Middletown. Conn.,
Woodrow Wilson said, "It is a stren-
uous thing this, of
B living the life of
a free people;
and we cannot
escape the bur-
den of cur inher-
itance." Our fore-
fathers sacrificed
life and material
possessions for
the preservation
of dur liberty,
which is secure
only in times of
peace. To pre-
serve peace is
perhaps our most
sacred obligation. It is for us to
emphasize the grave importance of
our fathers’ vision of peace, remem-
bering that without a vision the peo-
ple perish. What is that vision?
We have had many panaceas of-
f€?ed for permanent peace, nation-
ally and internationally, but all
