Phonetics In Its broadest sense Is s study of tlie whole range of sounds, articulate, musical and otherwise. In ita restricted sense It Is confined to articulate sounds of human speech. Even in this restricted sense It Is still broad enough to Include the subject f the acouStlc'or mechanics side and the anthropological lor philological side.. It ynay discuss, simply the speech vibrations that cause any particular sensations on the human ears, or it may Include an investigation of the manner End causes of the changes the .articulate sounds of a language undergo as It develops. jThe study of phonetics Is widely advocated by philologists and by many of the most thoughtful .teachers for three reasons : (1) That persons may speak' their mother tongue correctly, through thus learning to know the proper valuation of Its sounds ; (2) that they may learn successfully the pronunciation of oth-o- r languages, to which a knowledge o i their own Is the best Introduction ; , 8) that . those who wish .to study ,pclloIogy, may have, a key, to that science, And the sounds .of our cannot be successfully studied or explained without some use of pho-- j netic spelling.

To what uses can we turn 6,000 machines and 30,000 men that will give returns at all commensurate with- - the enormous outlay,? Hadnt we better figure all the outlay up. and charge It to war and let it go at that, .and not. break more necks? That is the practical mans, attitude ; and the airplane manufacturers attitude, is just .what the motor manufacturers yas ten, j , years ago. , As well ask to what use can we put pur five million output of motorcars? How can we ,use airplanes in practical everyday life? Here U the ale plane mans answer, and when you have pondered it you will not count very many airplanes .going to waste or to spare : Some of the Possibilities. Fast mail, fast express, light rush freight, such as perishable foods ; fast transcontinental and ocean passenger service, joy riding, sightseeing to places inaccessible by rail, such as the upper reaches of Grand Canyon or the Holy Land or the sacred city of Tibet ; coast guard and revenue , patrol, ocean survey work, weather bureau work, exploration, such as across the pole or, the hot tropical forests of Africa and South America, which would not be hot by the air route ; boundary p'SLrol, patrol or power lines and oil lines and gas lines, birds-ey- e sightseeing of cities, country to . city commuting, patrol of forests for fires, first aid in medical work, quick relief in such catastrophes as flood, fires, earthquakes; life saving at sea In case of wreck, carrying supplies to Inaccessibly , mines such as those in the Klondike or on the Coppermine, river or In deserts where lack of water bars out man and beast ', mountain climbing on wings, military and naval reconnaliance. For all these purposes no right of Way is required, no rails, no grading. Both extreme heat and extreme cold can- be avoided. Any one of these manifold uses would absorb every airplane now engaged for war. All the uses combined would demand and absorb as many airplanes as there, are motorcars say 5,000,000 for this country alone. . .

The gasoline will not run at more than 32 gallons an hour, at not less than 12 gallons pef, pngine per hour. Of the machine cost, we have only war figures now, with wages and material at war levels; but after the war, men like Curtiss and Wright believe the machines with military equipment now running from $7,500 to $50,000 can be produced for industrial purposes at from $1,500 tp $15,000.

Everybody knows; or should know, that the motor' was the Inspiration of the .good roads propaganda, .which' has run over the countfy like wildfire for ten1 years. Thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent on the good roads propaganda till it became a national slogan. Then millions were spent on the good roads themselves ; and they have paid - back " compound Interest on every dollar.' And do you mean to say we have to build good roads for the airplane through the air? Yes; that is exactly what I mean, only they wont be roads,, and you wont have to spend any millions on either the propaganda or the roads themselves. It will be a strictly and entirely government Job. Only instead of roads, it will be charts you will have to lay out ; and they dont need rails, road' bed, grading, polltlenl graft.-;Mors Ahxlous Over ths Land. The airplane man is far more anxious about air over the land than air over tlie sen. Over the sea, li he does come down, nil ho will hit Is water. On the land, If he comes down without a proper landing place, something as small as a stray cat, a fence post, a telephone wire, a two-foo- t ditch, a cow path, or a dry desert arroyo might wreck his machine. one-thir- . v , .

The airman cad no more follow the shortest distance' between two points through the. air with mail and fast express matter than a train can run without stations and switches at each end of the route. At these air route stations must be landing fields, hangars for the machines, gasoline supplies, spare, parts, charts, maps, weather forecast sig- nals, engine mechanics, receivers for' the quick transfer and delivery of mall, express matter or whatever it is. .What types of landing fields? And where shall they be located outside city' limits or in city parks cleared of buildings and trees for the purpose? Another point : Special charts will have to be prepared fop- - the pilot to follow. ,:For' instance, crossing the Atlantic, going east, the airplane would, I am told by engineers, have to follow east a little by south. Similar charts would have to be drawn to guide the pilot during prevailing trade or seasonal winds. The Chinook winds of the Rockies, for Instance, would add from 20 tq 50 miles an hour to a pilots speed coming, east and Impede his flight to. the same extent going west. , The deserts, the Mojave, Arizona, Mexico, ,Uah, have their dust storms from March to June. Which way do. they blow? Montague, I thlnk it Is, says the brown fogs of the Atlantic can be surmounted at from 10,000 to 15,000 feet, but while the airplane will take the flyer above the dust, will It take him above the hurricane that creates the dust? I lfI The meteorological bureau of .Washington and the chamber of commerce of San Diego have done most up to the present prne In charting air currents for aerial . flights. It is an entirely new world, and it is a puzzling one ; for remember, the. airplane may flrlf from Its course, Just as ships drift in ocean currentsHwi.thout the compass giving an inkling of t, and here again the army and, navy, could, an they would, a tale unfold. But it is in the region of the mountains that the lighthouses with powerful lenses are .most needed for aerial routes. This air region is an entirely unknown world, and it is dangerous as reefs off Labrador for a landing plao. " Cases are od ord in which fighters in the war Interlocked wings-ancame down and stuck in a treetop without so much as a scratch on the skin' of either pilot. But quite as dangerous as' treetops and rocks coming up to1 meet you through the floor of your car are the gusty air pockets above all mountains.

Still, as late as 1830, the fur traders of the mountains scouted the possibility of even tvngons ever '' crossing the Great Divide. Today, trains, mbtors Dividewltli and wagons cross all sections less thought and danger than pedestrians cross a safe Fifth avenue, New'York ; and by 1930, wager with your son that airplanes' will do the samel' But this is not all there is to charting the air, not by a long, long shot.
