Few can be trusted to spell accurately at twenty thousand feet without artificial aid. The fact sounds trivial, but it is part of a war problem to which the full effort of several laboratories and a large group of research workers is being directed, under the Department of National Defence.

The scientists occupied with this altitude research are making no second-hand study of the subject They are submitting themselves repeatedly to the effects of anoxia, not without risk. In a metal decompression chamber they make laboratory "flights" while an air-pump exhausts their oxygen The conditions produced are, in fact, more severe than in any actual flying for they represent a climbing speed several times greater than that of any existing plane. And, this being a case where the laboratory man is his own guinea-pig, most of them are able to tell you how it feels to "pass out" for lack of oxygen. RESULTS SECRET The practical results achieved by "Air Medicals" in this research are strictly secret, for this is just as much a war project as the development of a new gun.

It may, as a direct contribution to the fighting efficiency of Allied air units, prove much more important than the development of a new gun. And this being a war project the names of the men engaged on it must also be withheld. Suffice it to say that they have been hand-picked from the entire Canadian medical fraternity, and that some of them are renowned throughout Canada, and beyond.

For the average pilot it begins to assert itself about twelve thousand feet off the ground.

First comes a sense of well-being which grows to elation. The pilot will probably be conscious of that. He will be less conscious that, as his plane continues climbing, his field of vision narrows, he begins to see less clearly and has less control of his movements. Anoxia is beginning to take hold in earnest A little farther up, and the most careful man begins to blunder and his hand-writing becomes erratic, and possibly quite Illegible. His spelling gets jumbled.

TRY TO FIND REMEDY This is not a highly-colored fantasy; it is verbal repetition of a research-worker's picture of the normal man's reactions to altitude without the aid of oxygen.
