Wednesday afternoon, about 1920

towards tho western horizon. God in
His own way. which is always the
best, came to the bedside OF our dear
son and loving brother and summoned
him to that beautiful home beyond;
for he needed rest, sweet, thsppy
rest which God gives His, children
when they are tired of sorrow; and
suffering.

had had sorrow and temptation as we
all have had. bpt his determined char
acter made him strong.1p His straight

Today airsh:ps constitute one Of 'he
most important factors in modern
warfare. All the great world powers
have equipped their armies with fleets
OF aeroplanes and dirigible balloons.
and scientists are bending every en-
ergy toward .nventing new explosives
and perfecting means of hurling
them from the clouds with greater ac-
curacy. Some authorities even pre-
dict that the next great war will be
fought in the clouds by snuadrons ct
airships. Today American aviators
are scouting over the Mexican lines
around Vera Cruz, and are denlonstra-
ting their marvellous utility. Equip
ped with the latest devices the ultra
modern army scout can fly over the
enemys' country sketch or photograph
the topography of the land below the
forts. cities and troop positions. BY
wireless telegraph he can send back
the information to his headquarters
miles away. With the modern rapid
fire gun he can defend himself with a
stream Of bullets. Or he can drop
high explosive bombs from his lofty
craft, scattering death wherever It
strikes-a year ago 1t was reported a
Mexican rebel aeronaut dropped a
bomb that killed So soldiers instantly.
II 1t is night, the aeronaut can drop
q star bomb that explodes and shades
lasting and radiant light on the spot
he Is lowering over. To escape from
the new aerial guns designed to fight
airships, the modern aeronaut can
drop The new German bomb that
spreads a dense. heavy pail of smoke
between earth and airship and thus
permit the aviator to escape. Or he
can drop another kind which gives of
a poisonous gas capable Of killing ev-
cry living thing within 100 yards.
