chuich Friday afternoon at 8:00 for

tat an additional increase may be

Good instrumentation in the band

lines, cornets, and other brass. Stu-

icnts soon may expect to be regular
lembers of tbe band sometime be-
»re Christmas. Fees for beginnhra
i the summer school have been re-

Some idea of the magnitude of
air transportation in this country
may be gained from the following
figures showing the extent of op-
eration for the first quarter of the
present year, as reported by the
sixteen leading companies of the
country. The total number of miles
flown was 27,628,223. This waa a
23 per cent increase over the same
period the preceding year. A total
of 696,680 passengers were carried,
an increase of 36 per cent over the
same period last year. 3,437,171
pounds of express were carried re-
presenting an increase of 43 per cent
over the same period last year.
Until recently the government of
the Island of Bermuda has banned
automobiles from the Island. Since
the establishment of a United States
defense base recently, the ban has
been lifted but only in respect to
army officials and army trucks.
Even the governor of Bermuda is
not permitted the use of a car on
the island. One governor, Gen. Sir
Reginald John Thornton Hilyard re-
signed because he was not permitted
the use of an automobile while
