TRAINING aeroplanes ORDERED. r p h e first unit of 3,000 training airplanes on which thousands of 1 American aviators will be trained for battle service in Europe, has been ordered and all will be delivered before January 1,_ 1018. After a long investigation of the airplane industry during which all the various makes of airplanes were inspected, a machine was adopted which is considered to be the best built in this country for training is the “Standard iilodel J ” preliminary training tractor built by the Standard Aero Corporation of New York and Plainfield, N. J., and was designed by Charles H. Day. Machines of this type have been in «se for some time, one of them, driven by Peter C. Mihman making the record time in the Mineola, E. L, to Philadelphia, Pa., flight last December. This flight was conducted by the'Signal Corps Aviation Section, stationed at Mineola and the Standard machine made the best showing of those taking part. How the “Model J ” was chosen as the official training machine for the airmen of the Army, was told to-day by Harry Bowers Mingle, president of the Standard Aero Corporation. As soon as these 3,000 airplanes are delivered, thousands of others ivill be ordered, until there are enough for properly meeting the de mands of the war. The ‘fiAIodel J ” was designed particularly to stand U p under the hard work of military training. The instructor and pupil sit tandem fashion, in separate cock-pits and both are provided with controls The machine will have 100 horsepower motors, which will give a speed of more than 70 miles an hour. With a 90 horsepower motor of the same type, actual flying tests showed that the machine had a speed of 68 miles an hour and could land at about 37 miles an hour. The machines can climb 2,600 feet in ten minutes and have a flying range of about 360 miles. The rough dimensions of these train ing machines are width overall on the top wing, 43 ft. 10 in., with an overall body length, including rudder and propeller, of 26 ft. 7 in. All the machines will be tractors, that is, will have the propellor in front. LIBRARY COLLECTS^M DATA. ONSIDERABLE material relating to the war has been, and is now being issued. This consists mainly of pamphlets, posters,- handbills, broadside cartoons, maps and sometimes manuscripts.. The Adriance Memorial Library has begun a collection of such material, and a day or two ago a communication was received from the State Li brary, asking that a similar collection be made for that institution.^ Librarian Sickley has asked assistance in collecting^ such material, not only for the library here, but also for the State Library and for the Dutchess County Historical Society. This would mean procuring three copies of anything of a local nature relating to the war. The ma terial wanted would include notices of Red Cross Meetings, Enlistment or Draft Notices, Sales for benefit of Soldiers and any other similar purposes, and all handbills, posters, cartoons, maps, etc., relating to such meetings would be welcome. Individual effort will be necessary to carry .out the plans suggested and obtain the necessary material. This collection in the future will ■make a valuable record of certain activities of the war. PROTECT TRAFFIC MEN ¥ E anyone believes that the lot of the patrolmen who are assigned to '1 traffic duty is a bed of roses during the sultry days of Summer he should go to the post of one of these men and stand there for a short time. He ^vill soon be convinced that the job is not an easy or pleas ant one. The heat at these unprotected points is intense and the sun pours down and is reflected upward by the pavements. At times the heat is so great that it is almost unbearable. Yet, no matter how hot the day, the traffic man must remain at his post to safeguard the public. Would it not be a humanitarian move for the Board of Police Commissioners to arrange to provide some sort of shelter from the blistering rays of the sun for these men who are obliged to stand ex posed for hours each day? The expense of such a protection would be insignificant as com pared to the benefit it would be to the men on duty at these points. The shelter need not be of an elaborate type. Such an arrangement would certainly meet with the approval of the traffic officers and would ?.dd greatly to the comfort of a most uncomfortable and thankless task. Ing a vacation in Rensselear.
