of Oklahoma and are not afraid to
make strong loans on land here
They feel sure that land will advance
in value, and that there is little chance
to lose. For this reason we are in
position to get a strong valuation on
land and make the rate and time to
suit the borrower. We have been
loaning money for the last eight years
and ranrQcant three of the hest loan
companies doing business in the state.

TO SEA
FIVE MILES OF AMERICAN WAR
SHIPS PASSED PRESIDENTS
YACHT IN REVIEW
CAssocIated Press)

New York, May 1s.-The big feet
of American warships which has been
at anchor in the Hudson river for ten
days steamed to sea today. President
Wilson on board the yacht Mayf1ower
reviewed the five-mile line as it pass
ed by the Statue of Liberty. AS each
craft neared the Mayflower its six
Founders doomed out the presidential
salute Of twenty-one guns.
Ten thousand persons hocked to ev-
cry vantage point to view the great
procession. The piers along the Hud-
son were black with spectators. The
windows of the skyscrapers were
thronged and hundreds were on the
house tops. The day was cloudy but
the sun shown at intervals.
AS each battleship passed the May
flower its band played the national
anthem. There was little cheering IN
response. In bidding goodbye to the
fleet the crowd seemed to be in a
thoughtful mood.
The feet goes TO Newport, rendez-
yops. from which Will be- directed the

ICAN WARSHIPS
(Associated Press)

New York, May 18.-President
Wilson yesterday reviewed the AT.
lantic feet, and at a luncheon tender
ed him by the city of New York he
told the distinguished gathering what
the country and its navy stood for
The great battleships which lay in
the Hudson river, he said, were en-
gines to promote the interests Of hu-
manity.
"The inspiring thing about Amer
ica," the president asserted, as she
asks nothing for herself except what
she is right to ask for humanity it
self; we want no nations property;
we wish to question no nations hon.
or, and we stand in the way of de-
Of no nation. 1t is no pre-
tension on our part to say we are
to stand for what every ma
tion would wish to stand for and are
speaking for those things which all
humanity must desire"

The Lokal Enziger says: '@The Ger

delay long the answer requested, and
probably will reply that in occupying
itself with it's sacred rights it is not
to be disturbed from any side. The
German answer viii make it compre-
hensible to Wilson, in language polite
and as clear that we must conduct
the war as we are conducting it and
can conduct it with a clear con-
science"

ground that the submarines COM
rnander reports only one torpedo was
fired, convincing him that the Lusi-

so it would not sink the vessel unless
there were explosives on board.
It is reported in Amsterdam that

BIG GUN BATTLE
Immense Expenditure of Artillery
Ammunition
tAssociated Press)


London, May 18.-"This is the
greatest artillery battle in the his
tory of the world; the expenditure of
ammunition is fabulous" wrote an
observer from behind the British
lines at .Ypres, describing the fighting
of April 25 and 26. -
After describing the almost con-
tinuous cannonading that had been
going on for twopdayss with literally
thousands of guns in. almost cof4
tinual action, thesobserver' suggests
that they sounded like an endless roll
of thunder multiplied .i.by -ia- tt6u:
sand"
Touching briefly on the Canadians
part in the battle, he says: "One Of
the most notable incidents of the bat
tie was the work done by the Can
adian supply column. mot a cartridge
or shell was a second late in reach
ing the man behind the gun, and
when the black fumes blew across a
section of supply men and they fell,
others rushed in and kept the fight
ing lines replenished until the wind
blew the fumes away.
During the afternoon two aero
planes-supposed to be British
marked and shaped exactly as the
British aircraft are, flew over the
German lines, and it was noticed that
the German shells played all about
them without effect. Then they
would fly over the British lines and
back again, but the German shells
always fell far short Of bringing
them down. On their third visit the
Canadian field battery let them have
several shots. One aetoplane, badly
damaged, volplaned down into the
German lines, and the other fed out
of sight behind the German trenches" !"
Describing the artillery fighting,
the writer says: "As far as our
glasses would carry, we could see the
white bursts of shrapneI, the black
bursts of the German giant guns, or
the feathery floating clouds of anti
aircraft shells which broke in the
reverberating dome of the sky, where
both German and English aeroplanes
scared. The old theory that shooting
causes rain was disproved, for the
sun shone brightly over the indescrib-
able scene. The wind was so strong
that the aeroplanes facing it made
no headway, and standing into the
wind in one place like kites, the Brit
ish aeroplanes seemed as stationary
as the top of the Eiffel tower, direct
ing presumably the British gunfire.
From behind our hill two British
monoplanes SCARED SO low over US
that we could see their guns; they
climbed into the sky to drive away a
Taube biplane which was flying over
the hill sidewise in the heavy wind.
The Taube took to fight at a height so
great that it looked like a dot in the
sky even with our glasses turned on
it. Soon the white puffs Of the Ger
man anti-aircraft guns and the mud
der white puffs of the British sky
guns punctured the sky, above and
below glittering dots which were the
aeroplanes cleaning in the sunlight" I"

ENGLISH SPARROWS PULLED
DOWN THE GERMAN EAGLE
Battle Between Zeppelin and Flock
of AeropIanes Over Brussels

London, May 18.-The story of a
battle between a Zeppelin and a
squadron of twenty-seven British
aeroplanes has reached the Daily Mail
by way of Rotterdam.
This Zeppelin" says the account,
had been frequently seen cruising
IN the neighborhood of Brussels.
About O'Clock in the evening it was
surrounded and attacked by twenty
seven aeroplanes. The Zeppelin put
up spirited fight with machine guns
and tried to escape by rising to a
high altitude, but the aeroplanes
gave it no chance. Within a few
minutes the Zeppelin had received
several wounds and fell. All the
crew of sixty were killed. Two aero
planes were destroyed by the Zeppe-
Inns guns"
