"British Air Service.
The muccass sobieved by the- British aeroplano his been partly due to its French engine. Our Allies, in accordance with the policy of mutual help which has developed so enrmously since the war began, have doubtless rendered every assistanco in the outpat of British aeroplanes, bat the War Office bas not been content to remain idle. It is gratifying therefore to know that ere long an all- British aeroplane will be brought into service and that this mschine will be a vast improvement on all other machines at the front is a certainty, otherwise there would be no object in introducing it, It

Dowager's scheme of preparation for Parlia- mentary institutions. The estab lishment of Town or District Councile was a feature of that scheme, and, as we have previous ly urged, if the President has any real desire that bis country should in course of time, attain, to that stage of development of which parliamentary institutions re the natural snd, to to speak, the automatic outcome, tbere could be no better instru- ment for the purpose than Town Councils dealing with a Fale selection of local affairs,.

The main. features in which we at present possess ascendancy are more especially thore in which the fying capacity of the machine, rather than its more essentially. fighting quality, is concerned. Thas superiority may be claimed for the British seroplanes: firstly, as being better aerodynamically, that is to say, for given horse- power and weight they possess a greater speed and climbing power; secondly, they are more stable, in fact, our present-day machines are definitely automatically or inherently atable, thirdly, they have a higher factor of safety than any of their Continental rivala and are far more robust BE to alighting gear; and, fourthly, they are more weatherproof,
