RANGE ORGANTZES AERIAL SQUADRON Overhead Service Drilled With Exactitude of Army (Correspondence of the Assoclated Press.) Paris, Oct. 27.—Now that France has developed an aerial force with battleplanes, cruiser-planes, and lesser aircraft, which the officers refer to as torpedo-planes, it has been necessary to organize this over- head service with the same exactness of detaijls that armies and fleets are organized, with tactics and manoeu- . Vres of advance and retreat, attack agd defense- Unlike an army or fleet, which can move only in one direc- tion parallel with the surface of the ! earth or water, a fleet of air warships can move in any direction, upward, downward, forward or backward and at any oblique, All of these tactics of the air are now being worked out with pre- cision. Already the official reports r&er almost daily to the. manoeu- vres of an ‘“esquadrille,” which is the French term for a squadron of air-fighters, and soon there will be niention of the advance or recoil of the ‘“right wing” or “left wing” of these squadrons, as the tactics pro- vide for the assembling of a num- ber of “esquadrilles” into fleets wRich can be increased in size al- most indefinitely. Wells, the Eng- lish novelist, suggested the deadly effect of 1,000 acroplanes hovering over Berlin and dropping bombs. The fumber an manoeuvre was at the time regarded as fantastic. But the orgarization of squadrons and fleets of battleplanes and cruisers brings this measurably and” already one attack has been made with 65 aeroplanes, two with over 60, and five with from 30 to 40 air-fighters. Made Up of Unit. The ‘“esquadrille,” which is the unit of the aerial organization, at first consisted of six aeroplanes. But the organization so that the ‘es- quadrille” is now made up prac- tieafly as follows: 6 scout-aeros tion. 2 armed cruiser-aeros with 3-in. g#n (avions de chasse) {1 battleplane with two 3:in. guns (avions d’observa- scouts delicious and Powder AbsolutelyPure Insures the most healthful food NO ALUM-NO PHOSPHATE 9 lorries, 9 trailers, 9 portable can- vas aero-sheds, 3 autos. There is one lorrie and trailer and one shed, for each of the fighting craft, so.as to transport it rapidly to any point, and house it until need- ed. The autos are for the com- !manding officers, and ‘to follow up {the flyers when possible. Gasolene, teols, supplies, etc., are carried on the lorries, The ‘esquadrille” thus made up, is commanded by a commissioned of- ficer of the army, who acts as pilot of the squadron. Commissioned of- ficers also operate the fighting and cruising aeros, with expert | commissioned officers and soldiers for the lesser craft. Including the soldiers on the lorries, trailers, ete., an ‘“esquadrille” has a complement of upward of 70 officers and men, of which, however, only a dozen or so ;are actual flyers, New Types of Fighters, M. Rene Bernard, the newly desig- nated Secretary of State of Aviation. has recently given opportunity for inspection of the new types of air- fighters. The battleplane avion de combat) and the cruiserplane (avion de chasse,) are the two main de- velopments. Only partial descriptions of these craft is permitted; nothing can be stated as to the number of planes of the monster battleplane. But it is permitted to indicate its power by saying that it has carried 12 men in its flights, and that it mounts on its huge outstretched within realization, | a.zd one mitraleuse (avion de com- bat) wings two 3-in. cannon, one at either tep, with a rapid-fire mitraleuse in DRESS HATS Iin All the Best Colors and Styles Showing at THE EASTERN .

These cruisers can mount almost straight up from the ground, at the rate of about meters in two minutes, so that thcy can go straight up to an enemy as soon as he is observed, instcad of mounting slowly on long curves as of old. But France or is not stopping with these new devices, and her engineers and constructors arve inspired with the thought of a rich prize of 50,000 francs for a still further advance, which will realize 200 kilo-meters an hour with four motors, two pushing and two pulling. * The *esquadrille” or squadron is only the unit of organization, and it is in assembling them that the real fighting manocuvers are accomplished The directing head of the organiza- tion is here in Paris, connnected with the Ministry of War.

The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or thre times during the night. ‘When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the bod. urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kid- ney region, you suffer from back- ache, sick headache, dizz ness, stom- ach gets sour, tongue coated and you £21 rheumai: twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table- spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fa- mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activ- jty, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weak- ness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in- jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it 1s only trouble. | PERFECTLY PASTEUR- IZED MILK SEIBERT AND SON, Park Street, Near Stanley, 6 teams.

Here they are gathered in hundreds and given their final tests before going to the fighting tine. Parks Back Of Lines. But it is on the fighting line that the real manoeuvers begin. The aero- parks for actual service are a short distance in rear of the fighting forces, | each park at the front being made up of four ‘“‘esquadrilles.” So that, as each ‘“esquadrilles” has nine aeros, including battleplanes, cruiserplanes, and scoutplanes. In turn, these parks back of the line are connected, so that these equipment of 26 machines in each can be rapidly brought together for a concerted attack or defense. As these parks stretch from end to end of the long battle-line their num- ber and aggregate of aircraft must be very large. As stated, the con- centrations of 65 fishting craft have already been carried out, and much | i larger concentrations are in view. . Strange Devices Used, The fighting tactics have developed a number of interesting phases. It is a strange fact that one of the most useful devices has resulted from the capture of an cnemy aero, This brought to light a fine instrument of precision, made by a well-known opti- | cal firm of Berlin. The instrument ye-ords with exactness the moment and place when an aeroplane is pre- cisely vertical above a given point i on the ground below. That is, there is no trusting to the eye, and when the instrument shows the vertical point—as, for example, an enemy battery below—a bomb dropped from the aeroplane is certain to hit that exact point. It is, in fact, an aerial range-finder, showing the exact mo- ment when a bomb will strike a given spot. Another strange device used in these battle tactics is a battery of 12 small glass bottles, set in a wire rack within easy reach of the operator. The latter flies over the enemy’s lines the purpose being to signal back to his own batteries how their shots are taking effect, thus giving them the exact range. The little glass bottles contain a liquid which ex- plodes five seconds after the cork s drawn, emitting a little round puff of smoke, or a short trail of smoke. This is aerial telegraphing. The smoke-puffs are dots: the smoke- trails are dashes. Thus the npilot talks back to the far-away battery, in dots and dashes of smoke, telling the watchers that their shots are too high, or too low, or too far to the left or richt wing, and thus giving them the exact range. .Use Of Wireless. Still another remarkable develop- ment in the French tactics is the use of wireless, by which aeroplanes are kept in communication over a radius of 220 miles with a central station. The aero-wireless is a small and deli- cate set, with light atenaea above and fr tip to tip of the wings, the wire automatically winding up if the aero is unmounted. These are “‘i actual use. and besides supplying the new French machines the English and Russian machines are being similarly cquipped, the demand from these sources being greater than two | can | over ‘turing companies the and ¢ foregoing rapid devel- opnient wnization in military aviation, there ig a distinet branch | of naval aviation, with a warship of considerable tonn: 5ot aside for this particular purpose and at one of the | ports which it is not permitted to | mention.

The New York, New Haven and Tartford railroad company has ap- peinted N. J. Lee general agent, pas- senger department, at New Haven. Mr. Lee has been with the New Haven railroad for nearly twenty years and all of that time he has been in the / passenger department of the com- | pany. He entered the service June 29, 1896, and in December, 1904, was appointed traveling passenger agent. He became general agent of the pas- senger department in New York in 1908, and four years later was ap- peinted chief clerk of the department in New Haven, which position he has held up to this present appointment as gencral agent in New Haven.
