The German machines were bet ter prepared for warfare at the begin ming. had more powerful motors and could distance French machines in an air chase. The French brought out more and more powerful motors, pro- tected some of their machines with steel plates and armed them with spe- cial guns These machines, in hands of aviators, who volunteered for the war and who have specialized them selves in the chase of German air craft put an end to the aeroplane raids upon Paris.
 Recently the Germans announced the appearance of a new machine supposed to surpass everything yet produced. with four propellers and two motors to each propeller. A letter from a French aviator says regarding an en- gagement with one of these machines:
 Each time he passed me the ma chine gun man fired q whole band of cartrtdges-it was a hail of bullets. Then the machine swung round and came back above me. Four times he repeated the manoeuvre and 1t seem ed each time I could see the bullets My passenger and fired all our am- intuition, but the machine was too fast for us; then we turned to draw the enemy towards our lines.

Put away mutual desire for destruction and re- hect that nations do not die; if hu- initiated and oppressed they prepare to retaliate by transmitting from gen. eration to generation hatred and a de- sire for revenge
 Why should not direct or indirect exchange of views be initiated in an endeavor if possible to arrange aspira- t1ons so that all should be contented ? This os our cry for peace and we in- vite all friends of peace to unite with us in our desire to terminate this war and establish an empire of right, re- solving henceforth to solve differences, not by the sword, but by equity and justice.

ELks.
 The committee that Is arranging for the biggest outing ever held by Elks in this part of the state has been at work this week, getting all the plans under way for dinner and ball game and athletic sports and other things that. taken altogether, should make day in the history of eastern Connec- ticut Elkdom.
 Capt. Denny Hayes has had his ball team on the, impromptu diamond at Red Top. where. among other things, Capt. Denny's new pitcher, another 8 way that suited Danny Murphy and the rest that were watching the Hayes dark horse for the first time.
 Capt. Val Luppert of the tug-of-war team is securing the woods for four powerful men on what will. they say, Ernst and Martin Larsen are engageo' and other good ones are in sight
 The cabaret will be good, in the es- timation of Thomas H. Crawford, who has that in charge. He has been ar Sayin Rock. and also at Coney Island, this week to hunt up talent
 Barney Keenan has been spoken for as the cop of the day. He probably will have little to do, though sworn in as a special constable of the town of Preston for one day.
 Secretary Thomas H. Shannon of the Hartford lodge wrote Friday to R. c. Plaut of the committee that the Char ter Oak brothers will show up in large numbers this year. The New Haven delegation will be another big one. Thomas H. Galligan, formerly of this city and Norwich lodge, will take good care of that. Frank Lincoln of Willi- mantle, who was here on his way to his Pleasure Beach cottage and talked with local Elks. is authority for the statement that the baby lodge will come down strong.
 There is interest in the 100 yard dash between D. J. Mccormick and Martin Larsen, both of whom are in training. This will not be a race for fun or glory, for there is understood to be a cash consideration agreed to by the sprinters. In the regular 100 yards. Tony Bernard and Jupes Mcintyre, the New London flyer, who were six inches apart at the finish last year, ought to have @ battle royal.
 Joseph H. Henderson and George c. Park are getting a line on the eatables they will need to feed the hungry horde of close to 1000 men, Elks and their friends from ten cities. They will have a big crew to help, and the feast will be served in the pavilion in the forefront of the park, where on the hottest days there is plenty of breeze off the water.
