If they were in the air for five or six hours at a time that was considered plenty. -Whereas, if the soldiers were in the front line trenches, they might have been kept there for days at a time. The aviators were also given a | week’s vacation every five or six weeks. 'Everything they had was of the best and they were kept in per- fect trim.

There were no Ger- | man planes. in sight and everything was going along smoothTy until he | noticed that the plane was directly over a village that he knew was forty | miles behind the German lines. He | decided that it was time to go hack. | He was preparing to turn about land retrace his flight when he saw a German machine directly beneath his cwn craft. He prepared to shoot and then his attention was called to something “else, three more German | planes, much larger and much more | dangerous than the other. The speaker stated that he was scared to death at the prospect of fighting the four of them and getting out alive. But there they were and the only thing for him to do was to attempt | to escape at least ,which he finally did, after disabling some of his ad- versaries. On his returm to Allied territory he met’ another German craft and put that out of business. He was asked to tell something of the aces and he explained what they were. He said that the aces were aviators who had brought to earth five or more of the enemy planes. However, no man was given credit for bringing them down unless the action was observed either by one of his own men on land or by men in a ! balloon, because the trick of faking was played too often by the enemy They men a chance to - Berlin News AVIATOR TELLS OF " WAR EXPERIENCES Donald H.- Montgomery Gives Talk to-Members of Bible Class ST FIRES N COURT Democrats Plan To Hold Big Rally anil Swamp Republicans—All Ken- singtons Play Walnuts of Hartford Sunday Afternoon--Other Items The English “put it all over” theé Germans when it came to flying, ac- cording to Donald H. Montgomery of Hudson street, who addressed mem- bers of the Men's Bible class of, Ber- iin at its first meeting of the season last evening in the community house. | Mr. Montgomery stated that the Eng- lish were nct only more accurate, but they were equipped with better planes. The Germans would never pick a fight with British planes un- less the latter were outnumbered by their opponents. Mr. Montgomery began his talk by saying that he was in Chicago at the time of the outbreak of® the great | war, He was anxious to join the avi- | ation forces and wished to enter the war witi the Canadians. However, he figured that there was not much/ * chance of jolning in Chicago, so he went to his home town, Rutland, Ver- mont, and made an effort to join there. His attempt was unsuccessful and he returned to Chicago, where he signed up with the Canadian air forces. He, in company with 14 other ap- plicants, was sent to Canada, where they were examined for service. Two of the men failed to come through and returned to the States. The oth- ers went into training for their work overseas. Here Mr. Montgomery mentioned that eight of the men ac- cepted at that time were killed during the war. The other man was so bad- 1y injured that he will be a cripple the rest of his life.

In England, he said, neo pergon is allowed to take an airplane up unless he is equipped with a license to fly. The machines are regularly tested and everything is | done to prevent serious accidents. In America however, he said that anyone may take an airplane up. Flying is safe enough, he said, if the plane is reliable and the uses discretion and care. the various parts of the planes and of | some of the stunts that the pilots do, spiral diving, nose diving and other “tricks of the trade.” He explained how the planes are controlled. The talk was thoroughly enjoyed by |about 30 members of the class who were present. The speaker held his audience interested deeply in his lec- ture for about one hour and a half.
