Generally Believed Scientists Are in
too Wrony With Predictions.
"Flying will affect the mental pro
ceases, declared ,Chas. F. Walsh av -ator.
of International repute, who flies
In La, Grande July 8 and 9th, and
when he gave voice to the statement It
was with a two-fold meaning, as he
afterwards explained. Much has been
said by scientists as regards the phy
sical metamorphosis which they ex
pect centuries of flying will make in
humankind. Little has "been said of
the mental change which is bound to
result, or ; which ' Is several times as
probable as the, grand' supposition of
the physical . transformation of man.
And it was regarding this latter phase
of the question that Chas. F. , Walsh
expressed himself recently. .'
the .scientific theory of the enlarge
ment of the heart by centuries of fly
ing and the suggested growth of a soft
down over the body, as iwell as the
supposed development of a double pro
cess of breathing. In these theories,
Mr. Walsh belteves that sicentists
have stepped a little over the boun
dary of possibility,' but he earnestly
declared his strong belief In a change
In the mental processes, this Includ
ing a spiritual as well as a physical
development, ,r .:( . v
That the physical makeup of man is
bounded to be affected is his theory.
but It is in a different way from which
those who have so far given their
ideas to the world have suggested.
. He predicts that flying will produce
mental -action and will make a type o?
man far different muscular develop
ment than man of today.
The play of the muscles in guiding
the machiiles of Hie air. Is quite un
like that required for any other work
and white It demands strength, it de
velops the body differently. Mr. Walsh
cites the change that has taken place
In himself since he flrst took un aer-
lial navigation, two and a half years
ago. Formerly he was a mechanic,
and was strong and robust. Today
he. Is slender and while very strong,
does not appear muscular.
"The delicate, light, but strong
movements required In aviation," he'
said, "transform the Body."
"While the spiritual side of life does
not appeal to the average person to
day, he cannot sail often in the air
without being forced to a different
train of thought. The beauties pre
sented to the sight from high alti
tudes are so much vaster and greater
than anything else that has been given
us to enjoy that there is left to the
aviator room for deep thought, which
! leads him finally tq a very different,
more hopeful and happier view of
life."
Mr. Walsh declares that he has
read with interest everything that
scientists or so-called scientists have
set forth in their many theories re
garding the possible results of avia
tion on the human ystem and he has
many Ideas of his own.

. Chicago, June 28. Protection
against the hazing of the newly-wed
is proposed by Richard Henry Lit
tle, humorist and war correspondent
of Chicago, after 'some research work
Into the indignities, sorrow and suffer
ing of June brides and grooms at the
hands of their friends. Mr. Little has
turned reformer and headed a petition
for reform with a choice collectldn'of
incidents to illustrate the antics of
modern civilization. One was under
date of Rolio, Ills., June 22, 1821:
"After the ceremony Mrs. Dubb was
seized by her bridesmaids and a beau
tiful bird In three colors was tatooed
on her forehead. Mr. Dubb was seized
by his friends and relatives and, af
ter being tarred and feathered was
ridden out of town on a rail fcehlnd
the Justly famous Rollo Silver cor
net band. The event was one of the
most amusing and delightful weddings
that ever took place in our little vil
lage." ',': ;;.; r'y
' Another imaginative bit follows.
"Blahavllle, Ind June, 1921. Miss
Truly Lovely was married here to
day to Mr. John de Smythers ofChl
cago. Some of the" fun' loving"' rela
tives of the bride set fire to the First
Methodist church Just as the contract
ing parties were walking down the
aisle. De Smythers rescued his bride
with some difficulty and then repaired
to the home of the bride and attempt
ed to have the ceremony on the ver
anda. The groom's best man, however,
exploded a charge ,of dynamite under
the veranda Just as the bride was
about to say 'I wlir and the ceremony
was naturally interrupted."
For emphasis Little gives the sport
results of a Chicago wedding party:
"Mr, and Mrs. Sweetlelgh had escaped
in disguise from the bridal party and
taken a train for the wesC Intending
to spend .the honeymoon at the ranch
of the groom in Colorado. Dispatches
were promptly sent ahead to a brace
of well known train bandits ana vhf
train was derailed at CucSe Junction.
Outside of a broken arm and a few
minor cuts the bride was unhurt and
the groom escaped with nothing worse
than two or three contusions and a
dislocated shoujdcr. V

Heary Upton wrote to his brother,

him to go to their frleud's lodgings lu
London and And out what he was do
ing at such, and such an hour on a cer
tain day. Tbe brother lp London com

died, but not on the day be bad been
seen abroad. ,
Later the landlady was asked on
oath as to the date and hour of death
and whether he had died In a white
shirt with a blue check. After some
demur she confessed that ber lodger
did not die when she first stated, but
on the day when his friends bad seen
him pass through the mess room.
It seems the date of demise bad
been falsified on account of bis pen
sion, which was almost all his family
had to depend upon. And he died In
a white shirt with a blue check, his
landlady having lent one of ber hus

"but I am In the house most of the

So they had big windows. Before
the carpenter left she ordered inside
shutters put up. The family's flrst
night in their new home was cele
brated by adjusting two sets of win
dow shades, one white, the other dark
green, which served as a background
for two pairs of curtains, one of silk,
the other of lace. On the third day
the man helped his wife to hang addi
tional sash curtains, and on the fourth
day he found a man tinkering with the
outside of the window ledge.
V "He Is Just getting ready to put up
the awnings," she explained.
Her husband looked at the shutters,
the two shades, the. two curtains and
the, sash curtains and the arrange
ments for tbe awnings at each win
dow, and then he laughed, but she
could not understand why. Nw Yord
