Tests For Applicants
Applicants for training as officers
of aviation must pass the same physi
cal tests as are now applied to officers
of the regular army, and must be be
tween the ages of 21 and 27. In the_
mental test the applicant will be re
quired to establish the fact that he
has "the equivalent of a college edu
cation."
The candidate must state in writing
that if he passes his aviation test after
being taught at the expense of the
government he will become an officer
in the aviation reserve corps. Then
the examining board will recommend
that the applicant be designated as an
aviation student. He will be sent
either to an army aviation school or
a private aviation school approved by
the officer in charge of the aviation
section. When he has been taught to
fly will be commissioned second
lieutenant.
It is the intention to organize reserve
aero squadrons in various parts of the
country.
The enlisted reserve corps calls for
fifty-four master signal electricians,
190 first class sergeants, 281 sergeants,
543 corporals, 1,381 privates, first class
and 276 privates. These men will.be
expected to attend to the motors of
the aeroplanes.
An officer in the reserve corps will
be commissioned for five years, after
which he may be recommended in the
same or higher grades for successive
periods of live years.
In time of actual or threatened hos
tilities officers of the reserve corps are
subject to such duty as the President
may prescribe. Heads of staff corps
when authorized by the Secretary of
War may order reserve officers to duty
for periods not exceeding fifteen days
a year. While so serving the officers
will be paid the same as the respec
| uve grades in the ym.v.
TELL INTERESTING ANECDOTE
! ABOUT JAMES W'IIITCOMIi RILEY
Herbert R. Hvman is responsible
i for the following anecdote of the late
■ James Whitcomb Riley, quoted in the
j Indianapolis Star:
"Mr. Riley was sitting in his car,"
! says Mr. Hyman, "in the shade of one
: of" the trees that border University
j Square, watching the Lambs' Club pa
j rade, two or three years ago. In it
' marched many of the most notable
: members of that organization, actors,
j writers and the like. Suddenly the
I poet's eyes lighted up and he asked,
j'l wonder if Irvin Cobb's with them?
He's the greatest writer in America
to-day. He's going to be greater than
any humorist we've ever had. He's
got a lower lip like Lincoln, and a
i humor like Lincoln, and a tenderness
about all he says like Lincoln. He's
the funniest man I ever read." "

MAMMA-IN-LAW
IS JOY-KILLER
Sometimes It's His Mother;
Sometimes It's Hers Who
Is to Blame
By DOROTHY DIX
This is the fourth commandment
of matrimony:
THOU SHALT NOT ABIDE IN THE
HOUSE WITH THY IN-LAWS. FOR
THEREIN LIVETH TROUBLE AND
DISSENSION.
According to the statistics com
piled by the Court of Domestic
Relations, the mother-in-law is the
one most potent source of domestic
discord, and the first aid to divorce.
Sometimes it Is the wife's mother
who breaks up a home. Sometimes it
is the husband's mother, but the con
census of experience shows that either
lady is a trouble breeder, and that any
household Is due to run up the storm
signal when she arrives In It.
Of course this should not be
thus. Every mother should cherish
her newly acquired child aa her
! own, and every bride and groom
should love and honor their new
mother. Only they don't. There
seems to be some sinister psychic in
fluence that makes the mere fact of
people becoming in-laws to each other
bring out all the latent meanness
and cussedness in their nature as hot
poultice brings out the measles.

world are guilty of Incredible cruelty |
to their mother-in-law and daughters- |
In-law. Generous women who deny |
themselves new haU to send flannel |
petticoats to the Hottentots begrudge'
their old mothers-in-law a bite to eat j
and a seat by the fireside. Noble wo
men, who would scorn doing any other
sort of underhanded action, condes-1
cend to snoop and spy on their daugh- :
ters-ln-law and sons-in-law, and to j
steaming open letters and listening at!
keyholes.
Men who are the pink of courtesy j
and chivalry to all other women In the :
world show a brutal disregard of even
the common courtesies of life to their
mothers-in-law.
And so It goes, and so it always
will go as long as human nature is
In its present unregenerate state, >for
the in-law proposition crystalizes into
concrete form our three most pro
nounced weaknees. These are
tyranny, jealousy and selfishness, and
they get in their perfect work when we
are brought into intimate contact with
our In-laws.
Jealousy One Cause
There is, to begin with .the bitter
struggle between the bumptious young
husband or wife and the conceited old
woman about how the house shall
be run and who shall run it. Then
there is the undying jealousy of hus
band and wife of the other's mother,
and the bitter jealousy of the mother
who has seen her place In a child's
affection taken by another, and an
Idolized son or daughter going blithely
off with a stranger and actually being
happy with him or her
Above all there is selfishness,
the selfishness of the man who
feels that he has a right to mon
opolize his wife's every thought
and interest; the selfishness of the
wife who feels herself defrauded if
her husband gives a dollar of his
money or an hour of his time to the
mother who bore him, and the selfish
ness of the mother, who believes that
5
her son-in-law should work himself
to death to supply her daughter with
luxuries, but that her son's wife should
be contented to be merely a domestic
slave and not ask for any gew-gaws.
Should Start Alone
It Is especially important that a
bride and groom should start house
keeping alone, without the presence
of any third party. The first year of
married life is inevitably a time of ad
justment, in which there is bound to
be much friction. If left to them
selves, a young couple will fight their
differences out to a finish. Then the
bride will weep, and the bridegroom
call himself a brute and they will kiss
and make up and love none the less
for their quarrel. But it is another
story when the bride's mother is in
the house, and eggs the wife on to re
bellion and tells her what a persecu
ted martyr she is, or when the bride- .
groom's mother urges her 3on to stand
tirm and not let his wife henpeck him.
Many a mother-in-law also lays the
ax to the foundation of a home when
she feels it her duty to call her son's
attention continually to his wife's
! faults, or when she rouses suspicion
1 in a young wife's breast by harping on
j how strange it is that her husband
i didn't come home to dinner some
I night, and wondering If his pretty
! stenographer had anything to do with
it.
Therefore lay well to heart the
fourth commandment of matrimony:
THOU SHALT NOT ABIDE TN THE
HOUSE WITH THY IN-LAWS, FOR
THEREIN LIETH TROUBLE AND
DISSENSION, for In ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred domestic felicity In
creases, In direct ratio to the distance
from your in-)aws.
The fifth commandment of matri
mony Is Thou Shalt Not Make of Thy
self the One-Who-Must-Be-Obeycd,
For, Verily, Few There Bo Who I.ove
Their Jailer. Dorothy Dix will write
about it in this paper soon.
