Royal Air Force Sets Safety Record (By the British Aircraft Society.) The Royal Air I" in 1934 set a record which Le speak more eloquently of the ill of British aviators and the trustworthiness and efficiency of British aircraft material than the most spectacular flight. In the year Service airplanes have 'done more flying than in any previous 12 months since the War, yet the number of serious accidents shows a substantial decline and is better even than in 1921 when the Royal Air Force was about one- third of its present size and flew little more than one-tenth of the distance flown this year. A conservative estimate shows that R.A.F. machines have flown in 1934 about 47,000,000 miles, In 1921 every 2,238 hours' flying was at- WHAT TO DO ABOUT "Acid Indigestion" A WAY THAT RELIEVES THE CAUSE IN A FEW MINUTES « _-- Many .people who think they have "weak 'stomachs' or "indigestion," doctors say, suffer in reality from nothing more serious than acid stom- ach. And this common ailment can usually be relieved now, in minutes, All you dois take familiar Phliny 'Milk.of Magnesia after meals. This acts to almost immediately neutralize the stomach acidity that brings on your trouble. You feel like a new person! . Try this just once. Take either the familiar liquid "PHILLIPS' ", or the new Phillips' Milk of Magnesia 'Tablets. But watch out: that you get the Genuine PHILLIPS Milk of Magnesia, Made in Canada. ALSO IN TABLET FORM: Phillips' Milk of 'Magnesia Tab- lets are now on sale at all drug stores everywhere. Each tiny tablet is the > equivalent of a teaspoonful tended by a death; in 1934 the fig- ure has risen to approximately 12, 000 hours, And in 34 the decreased number of fatal accidents goes with an ex- ceptionally good record in other accidents which were not fatal but caused injuries to personnel. For comparison, the French Air Forces flew last year about 38,000,000 miles, employing about twice the number of aircraft flown in the British Ser- vice, which returned 44,000,000 mil- es in 1933; French casualties last year amounted to 45 deaths, The present figure shows that the 93 squadrons of the R.A.F. have sustained 19 fatal accidents in 1934, involving 28 deaths, Correspond- ing figures in 1921 were 33 squad- rons. 22 fatal accidents, and 37 deaths, That year the Service flew not more than 5,000,000 miles. In the worst year--1926--61 squadrons in all had 54 accidents, involving 85 deaths. Risks are inseparable from mili- tary flying. The Royal Air Force is charged with patrol and policing duties over a million square miles of territory. It flies daily in three continents, much of the time over perilous country where engine fail- ure would mean disaster. Even in the British Isles, the force gets much bad weatherflying; it can use no region of sunshine and perfect visibility comparable, for ex- ample, with the great state of Texas, where much of United States mili- tary flying is done. And this year's record is the more striking in view of the increased flying done in. air exercises and manoeuvres that were conducted as far ag possible under active service 'conditions, : Undoubtedly much credit for thel =. improvement must go to 'improve- ments in recent years of training methods and to extension of the in- structional period. Every Royal Air Force pilot, for example, is trained nowadays in "blind" flying by in- struments 'alone, which makes for safer navigation in fog and cloud. But perhaps even more credit must got to modern British aircraft and aero engines. Epgine failure is now a rare occurrence; engines in the service commonly run 400 to 500 hours without overhaul so. depend- .able and troublefree are they. Air- craft frames are not overhauled till they have flown some 1,000 hours. That is the kind of progress in aeronautical engineering of which one hears all too little, bearing dir- ectly on the safety of all kinds of aviation, civil as well as military.

McDONALD {Surgical Staff, Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto) In this War against Disease, the cause of certain conditions still re- mains unsolved, and one of the most striking examples of this is Infantlie Paralysis (Acute Anterior Poliomelitis). Here we have a dis- ease which appears to be on the in: crease; and at the present time is responsible for mare crippling in childhood than any: other. Medical men in various parts of the world have been working feverishly to discover the cause of this condition and to produce some type of pro- phylactic serum to protect children against it. In this war that is being waged the lives of many brilliant young physicians dave been sacri- ficed, but up to the present the problem still remains unsolved, We do know, however, that when an individual becomes afflicted with Infantile Paralysis, early in the dis- ease there is a widespread paralysis of muscles, and that as time goes on some degree of recovery occurs in every case which in many instan- ces may be complete, During this period of recovery, it is very im- portant that the paralyzed muscles be protected by splints to keep them from becoming stretched, and that massage be instituted early to keep up :the nourishment of the affected limbs. It is during this period that it is imperative that the child be treated in Hospital, because it is al- most impossible to obtain as good results if treated in a private home. The length of time that the child should remain in hospital varies in different cases, but generally speak- ing it should be long enough to have the patient 'become thoroughly ac- customed to wearlng splints and braces and until the case has be- come one that can be easily hand- led by the mother at home without taking too much of her time from the other children.

The cowboy-humorist made every: thing. clear recently at a dinner of the Poor Richard Club, commemerat- ing Benjamin Franklin's 229th birth- . day, where a medal was pinned on Roger's blue serge suit, honoring him as 'America's ambassador of ad- vertising." The blue suit, he had ex- plained, "doubles" for a tuxedo at formal functions, Most of his talk concerned Presi- dent Roosevelt, who he said he had "wised up" the night previously at Vice President John N. Garner's dinner in Washington, "You can't meet the president and not love him," Rogers said. "He's doing a Jot of cockeyed things. But his hold on the American people is due to the fact they have confidence in his honesty of purpose. "He can't answer whether we're going to have inflation or what the dollar's going to be worth. He can't But he's trying hard to do things." Rogers said he thought he had "got the president off the idea" of appointing any more "guys" to the supreme court. : He also expressed his appreciation of the medal by telling Franklin's home town what he thought of its Sunday "blue laws." "Philadelphia is a great little town . . . six days a week, but on Sun- day, the best thing you can do is get right out of town," he said, urging Mayor J. Hampton Moore that Sun. day moving picture would be a good thing for the city. "If 1 were you," a jeweler advised a youth, "I wouldn't have 'George to his dearest Alice' engraved on the ring.
