northeast corner, when one of the leads
on the motor pulled loose and the engine
died without even excusing itself The
machine was not more than fifty or SIX

The aviator had less than a fraction of a
second to consider the situation.
He managed, however, to make very
pretty impromptu glide and landed in
the only spot with a hundred yards that
was not decorated with logs, stumps and
bushes. 1t was a remarkable exhibition
of hairtrigger awaiting. much more diff
cult and much more instructive than any
number of safe, high flights.

science, of creating values which shall
assure to us Germans a place of honor

with the help of the national fund, a

Based on Military Necessity.

OF course. the real purpose of the APP
peal is, primarily, military one, and the
fund is merely an answer to that which
for some time past has been In existence
in France. Among the places where
contributions may be paid in are the post
offices of Germany and the branches of
the Imperial Bank, so that the fund has
distinctly an official character The So
cialistic press has discovered that before
the manifesto was sent out the editors
of the chief monarchial papers were con-
vened in a secret meeting, and their sun
port enlisted for the movement. No doubt
they heard the magic formula, THE
fatherland is in danger" with which
wonders can be worked in Germany

the greatest man of the century because
ne felt cow need that the inventor of
the first drigible airship had won for
Germany the indisputable supremacy of
the air. which forever must put an end
to all French dreams of revenge That
the kaiser's dream has been no more
lasting than dreams ordinarily are is
acknowledged in manifesto exhorting
all classes Of the population to contribute
to a national flying fund.-" which is
printed every day with great prominence
in practically the entire German press.

was in contemplation. The chairman
OF the committee is Count Posadowsky
