HOW ZEPPEL|NS MAKE I HEIR
 GET AWAY

LONDON July 29.-Zeppelin hunt ing is not so easy as it seems to the landgoing critics, who think it gross carelessness that any Zeppelin has been allowed to sail over English soil and get away.
 The first message of a raid may come from a point in Holland or Flanders or some outlying English coast watch station. It gives the time of passing, the general direction and the estimated height of the airship. On receipt of this at the aerodrome, the scout planes start out.
 Usually the Zeppelin chooses a dark night for a raid. It's machine. guns amply protect its giant frame from air attacks at its height, level and below But the gas bags render it vulnerable from above. To be at an advantage, the chaser must arise to A greater height than the invader, which is able to attain a maximum height of about 11,OOO feet.
 Unlike the gas ship, which can ascend swiftly at will, the aeroplane has to circle up slowly and labori ously. The scout probably starts out in the pitch dark with clouds to pass through. After the necessary altitude is reached, he has to speculate per haps vaguely as to his position and then settle on his course. If he is sail ing over country occupied by the Ger mans, he has to dodge the search. lights which are touching up the clouds. Once caught, the shrapnel from the anti-aircraft guns begins to burst. The scout then has to dive. circle, reverse and dodge about until he gets out of range and safe into the dark again. It requires all the nerve the airman possesses to keep himself under control while the shells burst with binding flashes and the searchlights play on the clouds.
 Safe into the dark, the hunter watches for his first clue-a Zeppelin signal from below in the form of fire flashes. This seen, he shapes his course for it.
 If the moon is due to come up at this time, the work is slmplifed, for the form of the Zeppelin may be easily seen if within range. If un- aware of the impending attack, the enemy's course is regular with the long sausage like form running on Q level
 The problem is now to keep clear of the Zeppelin's ears. The Zeppelln's engines can be slowed down so that the louder buzz of the aeroplane may be overheard
 If the Zeppelin detects the noise of the attacker. he flashes lights that illuminate all of the surrounding clouds. Once he sees the object of his search, his machine guns begin to play.
 There is a case recounted by an aviator where his pausing aeroplane took refuge in a cloud and then passed over and dropped bombs along what he thought was the Zeppelin's prob able course, which he based on the sound of the enemys machine guns. At the same time, the Zeppelin was firing into the cloud in the hope of getting in chance shot at the pur- suer. Each lost the other in the clouds, and the Britisher returned to his base without knowing whether or not he had damaged his enemy. The Zeppelin probably did the same thing.

In making the overland stitch
one may work either from right to

leave an end about half an inch long
and take the first stitches over the
end of the thread. TEe needle is

too tight in working. The hem
should open out flat and there
should be no ridge on the wrong

At the end OF the hem the thread
is secured By taking two or three

 The degree of concern which the ad- ministration would feel in the incident officials stated, would be measured by whether any American lives were sac- rificed in the German coup to sink the big liner. As the later dispatches came in indicating that the efforts to save life had been successful profound re- lief was apparent.
 Even though 1t had been feared that the liner might be attacked, to the President and his official family the news was a shock and a surprise.

 q can only repeat what I said a week ago when in similar fashion the American vessel Gulflight was de- htroyed off the English coast and her captain drowned. I then called atten- ton to what I had said two months when the Germans estab- llshed this war zone and announced that with mines and submarines they would commit the deeds that since they have actually committed, and that these deeds could by no rule of international law be regarded othoe- wise than as pure piracy.
 This represents not merely piracy. but piracy on vaster scale of mur- der than any old-time pirate ever rracticed. This Is the warfare which
