second thought in air lighting shows that it is chiefly in young men that this quality is obtained It has been found that as a rule a man of twenty makes a better aviator than the man of and ho again belter man of 25 Physique is not a prime con sideration lithe wiry frames arc more important ban stocky build Nerve rather than strength is re quired in carrying out an aviat ors duties In addition he must have aviators sixth sense a perception of balance In the early stages- men Were accepted by the Royal Flying Corps without any tests as a mans sense of balance with the consequence that some lives were lost nut today elaborate tests have been devised lo establish a mans fit ness for flying service applicant under A must submit to these lesls Of course it is assumed that an aviator has plenty of courage is animated with a spirit lo do good work and make progress Ordinary intelligence and education is much depending course on a mans aptitude Those men who are fortunate enough to be able to measure up lo the standards vi the British had made no provision for Casual experiments with the camera be fore the war were- abandoned as valueless Today never a bat tle and scarcely ever a raid lb undertaken without an elaborate photographing of the enemys de fenses the Battle of aeroplanes soared above and behind the enemies lines for days taking thousands of map- of the territory lo be un der attack It is no exaggeration to say thai rapidly as aeroplane has de veloped under the exigencies of war the camera the photo graphic laboratory have kept pace with It The number of trained experts now engaged in this branch of the British Service runs into four figures progrcs- and efficient has this organ ization become that an observer moving over the enemy lines in an aeroplane has been known to re turn to headquarters have a print taken showing troops lining a trench and bring shell Ore to bear on the enemy concentration within minutes from the tak ing of the photograph Thus the camera allied with the aeroplane has become one of the most powerful weapons now used in the war It is a de pendable Infallible informer of all enemy movements the microscope the photograph reveals secrets that even the trained eye of an observer might penetrate And it makes a permanent record which may be studied any lime at leisure and in a of safety detail escapes notice It picks out items often great significance which no human eye can detect re ports every change in the land scape made by enemy engineers or camouflage devices It is in attempting to pry into enemy secrets that the- airman often meets his greatest thrills Pieces of enemy military con struction that arouse sus picions of the intelligence officer must he photographed If the construction is Of any importance the Hun will have a of anti aircraft gens planted and battle planes held in readiness to drive away any British machines Na turally it takes nerve for an air man to set out on such a mission But it has become a point of hon or with squadrons of the Royal- Plying Corps to get every photo graph they arc ordered lo get Upon a single photograph may depend the success of a whole op- oration involving of plan ning and hundreds of lives To be successful in this work an aviator must of course have courage But he must have more He must be in map reading He must be fa miliar many tricks and tac tics of flying He must have confidence in bis ability to handle his machine gun no less than his in using the camera So when a cadet is being trained in he Royal Flying Corps his train ing covers many duties and is full of fascinating interests from day to day No aviator goes to France without knowing all the tricks of the game that three years of closepacked experience taught Then you know mi If Its
