night fighting men are a possjbllty the men are taught n few simple trick to improve their night vision for instance if they have to use n flashlight to study a map or for any other purpose they are advised to cover one eye in order to retain its power of night vision the glare of the light will momentarily destroy the night visibility of the eye cx loed red glascs nre also advised to cut down

things for the big cities are missing a point or two they forget that the small town and yes the farm have a place keep in mind the future of the helicopter just as the branch lines helped the railways prosper so in the postwar wot id feeder air lines will help con solidate the dominion place in civil aviation of course there are many branch lines now but the greater field has yet to be tapped it is all very well to say montreal halifax and saint john have a place in future transatlantlc flying that edmonton will be at the crossroads of routes across the top of the world but think also of the prosperous towns of the maritime ontario and quebec and western centres they will be important point for holiday or commercial agricultural traffic all of which brings us back to that back pasture or vacant lot they may be airports for helicopters and the helicopter surely has a place in postwar aviation because of th small landing space required it wont cost much t fit up these heli copter airports and thus will be overcome the big landing ground ex pense that marred the prewar avia tion picture for smaller ce to transform into reality this pros pect we need only a practical imag
