TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT. AUGUST 24. 1916. AVIATION ILLNESS. RAPID FlrilNG GUNS. Hurling a Tornado of Death Into the Ranks of the Enemy. Peculiar Distress That Comes to Since the introduction of the modern quick firing gun and the perfection of Many Aerial Navigators. l.nie sbrapnel and high explosive FLIERS SHOULD BE ROBUST. They Should Also Be Young, Resolute and Cool Headed, With Sight and Hearing and Nervous and Vascular Systems Perfectly Sound. « shells uew aud scientific methods of rapid firing have been developed. When n rapid anil overwhelming fire la wanted, the range is found, and the ground within the limits of the pre­ scribed area is swept from end to eud with a tornado of fire. In the French army this is called a rafale la squall or gust). It is a series of eight rounds per gun. each two rounds being laid to burst 100 yards farther than the last, thus sweeping an area of say 400 yards with a rain of shrapnel or a devastating series of high explosive shells. "Sweeping” fire is a series of three rounds per gun. one in the original line, one to tbe right and one to the left. This is also, and significantly, called "mowing.” A fur- ther combination is called "search and sweep.” Time was w hen the commander of a battery stood near his guns and shout­ ed commands to his gunners. Today the urtlllery officer may be two or three miles away directing operations by telephone from nn observation post lu view of the enemy's works. Tbe observatory may be a ruined bouse, a tree trunk, a shell crater or a haystack, and from this point be observes the accuracy of the fire of bls battery and telephones instructions to the gunners in the rear, altering the range when necessary and communicating any en­ emy movements, so that the shells soon find a new mark. Instruments of precision and careful calculations are of course necessary to fight a battery in this manner, many allowances having to be made for tbe difference in height, distance and angle between the battery commander and tbe guns under bis charge.—Exchange ID ROBINSON, MD., Notice of Guardian's Sale.

Those who are up into the air In fly- ing machines as well as those who go down to the sea in ships are troubled by peculiar and unpleasant physiolog­ ical disturbances which may at times be of grave moment. This is especial, ly true of aeroplane pilots or passen­ gers and to less degree of those who ascend In balloons or dirigibles. The tremendous importance of aviation in war lends this subject peculiar inter est. and Larousse Mensuel (Paris) de­ votes a special article to tbe topic. The author. Dr. Laumonler, states that the symptoms vary according to the period of ascent, of descent and of landing. In ascending an acceleration of the respiration and pulse are frequently noted at from 1.200 to 1,500 meters ai titude. accompanied by a slight bead ache located in forehead and temples and by Indefinable discomfort without vomiting or nausea. At 1,800 meters there is a diminution in tbe keenness of hearing: at times there are halluci nations and finally an '‘asthenic" con dltion which prevents the muscles from obeying the will with adequate rapid­ ity. On descending the palpitations of tbe heart become violeait and are ac­ companied by a sensation of anguish, tbe headache Is intense, the aviator has an increasing sensation of heat of the skin, esfieclally of the face, and a TWINS AND A WEDDING. desire to sleep, which is sometimes so strong that the eyes involuntarily close as he approaches the earth, in spite of Simple Method of Solving a Matri­ monial Problem. imminent peril.
