CHIVALRY IN THE TRENCHES SEEMED TO COME TO THEM FAMOUS MEN OF GREEN ISLE FLYERS THEIR ESPECIAL CARE Country Hae Few Moro Picturesque Corps of Dosters and Trainers to Look After the Aviators tn This Coun Figures Than the Throe Widely try and Abroad. Known Myloe Brothers. Lieut. Col. Sir Thomas Myles, M. D* —better known as Sir Tom Myles— who has been In America on a British medical mission. Is one of the most picturesque figures tn Irish life. As medical students in Trinity college, Dublin, the three Myles brothers were •famous for their encounters with mem bers of the "heavyweight” division of the Metropolitan police. It used to ba naId of the Myles brothers, that, if they found It necessary to beat up tha Dublin “finest" at night, they were equally assiduous in patching them up In the morning. So there was no hard feeling on either side. Sir Thomas was knighted in 1902 when he was president of the College of Surgeons In Ireland. It was as bouse surgeon In Steven’s hospital that he made the first examination of the bodies of Burke and Cavendish, the victims of the famous Phoenix park murders. The strange thing was that, at the moment, neither Sir Thomas nor the police knew that one of the bodies was that of the chief 8BC- retary, and the other that of the under secretary for Ireland. It Is a habit of the Mylee family to be over six feet in height, and with shoulders and fists In proportion. In the Zulu war one of the chiefs was run to earth tn his kraal by the British, who wished to capture him alive. Vol unteers were asked for and Sir Thomas’ brother John undertook the task. He crawled through the long covered entrance nnd enme out too minutes later, dragging the kicking potentnte behind him by the scruff of the neck. For the care and conditioning of flyers In the air service the United States government Is now appointing a corps of doctors and trainers large euough to equip each training field and 1 camp for flyers, both here In the Unlt- I ed States and In France, with a proper organization. The doctors will be I known as flight surgeons nnd the train ers as physlcnl directors. The medical branch of the air service is not alone confined to the selection of the flyer, hut to his care and condition after he has been admitted to the service. It has become apparent that the flyer Is | unlike other soldiers, comments Sci ence. In the air service lie has become an Intricate, highly sensitized piece of mechanism with troubles all his own. To keep his complex organism physi cally fit a special master mechanic had to be provided solely for him. The flight surgeon. therefore, has been given freedom of Independent Initiative In all questions of fitness of the flyers. Subject to the approval of the commanding officer, he Is expected to Institute such measures as periods of rest, recreations and temporary ex cuse from duty as may seem advisable. He takes sick calls of aviators, he visits such eases as may be in the hos pital and consults with the attend'ng surgeon regarding them. He makes the examination of candidates for aviation and Ilves in close touch with flyers. The physical directors are assistants to the flight surgeons nnd their duty Is to supervise such recreation nnd physical training of the flyers as are considered necessary. If citations of Metz hnve especially Interested American rentiers, refer ences to Reims have ti ppen led most to the French themselves. For Reims Is very dear to them—for historic, for patriotic, for religious, and for liter ary reasons. Nothing, perhaps, has rejoiced our French allies more than the fact that the Germans have never been able to take Reims, however close they have come to it. It Is the damage that has been done to the glorious cathedral of Reims that constitutes one of the greatest artistic tragedies of the war. Here, in this magnificent cathedral, the kings of Im perial France were crowned. Here Joan of Arc led Charles VII to his cor onation—the sainted Joan who freed Reims from Its enemies. One of the great pieces of news from the western front was to the ef fect that Reims had been finally and definitely cleared from the menace ot the German guns. Armor Again in U m . An ancient calling la again very much alive. The armorer 1» at worlt turning out armor for fighting men ; and, tn a most distinguished case, the chief armorer of the Metropolitan Mu seum of Fine Arts, New York, Dan iel Tachaux, has been working for modern warriors with the very ham mers and anvils that once wars used la armoring their medieval forerunners. To be sure, armor nowadays Is not so cumbersome that when the wearer Is upset he has to lie fiat on bls back until somebody kindly stands him up again; but it has turned out that, for practical purposes, modern design adds nothing to the protective detail of the separate pieces of old-time armor.

Fewer Students. War and the industries made neces sary by war have had the effect of depleting the student bo<Jles of English universities to an extent that will be serious this year.

Real Annie Laurie. o- More than once has this question been asked whether "Annie Laurie" the subject of the beautiful song, was a real or fictitious person. A letter has come to hand that was written by Miss M. E. Riddle, dau ghter of the late Judge Riddle, for many years a circuit court justice in the Pittsburg district. The Riddles were of Laurie ilk, as Scotch folk say and they had gone to some consider able pains to get the story of the song straight, as there had been con siderable contention about it. Here it is: ‘Jean Riddell (the name later spelled Riddle) was married to Sir Robert Laurie, the first baronet of Maxwelton. One of their daughters was Annie Laurie, celebrated in Scotch song. "Annie Laurie was famed for her beauty and cleverness, and was a so cial favorite in all the country round about, so it was not at all surprising that she captivated a Mr. Douglas, of England, a man of culture and of let ters, who composed the song bearing her name. 'But seeing that the course of true love does not run smoothly, she mar ried a Mr. Gurgesson, leaving Mr. Douglas to his hunting and his verses. 'To this day many pilgrims go to Max welton, drawn thither by the much loved song, 'Annie Laurie’ Many also visit Craigdorroch, where she spent her married life in com fort.” Any one who imagines that all the ARMENIANS LOYAL TO ALLIES vessels sunk by enemy U-boats or mines are left at the bottom of the None of the Conquered People» Have Shown More Devotion to Cause sea would be surprised if he could of Liberty Than They. be told the whole story of Ingenuity, resource and unremitting toll of the It hns been the Armenians who have British admiralty salvage corps.
