LONDON. February 16 (l1:60 P. M).--
Tho air wing OF the British navy to-
day made another massed attack on
the German positions along the Belgian
coast. in an effort to destroy or damage
the submarine base at Zeebrugge. the
guns at Ostcnd and Middelkerke and
the aerodromc at Ghistclles.
According to the official report good
results were attained. Forty machines
were utilized.
While the British airmen were drop
ping their bombs on the gun positions
and the supply trains. barEes and
trawlers used in mine-laying and
mine-sweeping operations. eight French
airmen attacked the Ghistelles aero
drome, preventing the German airmen
from making an attempt to cut off the
British machines
The official statement concerning the
raid says:
The air operations of the naval wing
against the BruEes. Ostend and Zee
bruggc district were continued this
afternoon. Forty aeropianes and sea-
planes bombarded Ostend, Middelkerke.
Ghlstelles and zeebrugge

Ostend. on gun positions at Middel-
kerke. on transport wagons on tho

Importance and every effort is made
by the flying officers to avoid droppipp

The official report makes no mention
or the airmen engaged. so II is pre-
sumed they all returned safely. The
day was bright and clear, conditions
being more favorable than for last
weeks raid.
Though the statement OF the British
admiralty does not give the order in
which the German positions were at

which the towns are named in the
report.
Al ostcnd the heavy batteries cstab

the harbor were made the targets OF
a furious rain Of projectiles.
CO-OPERATION OF FRENCH
PREVIOUSLY ARRANGED
II is apparent that the corporation
of the French machines had been previ
ously arranged During the previous
raid the work OF the British airmen
had been hindered by the presence of
German machines which. though not IN
sufficient strength to spoil the plans
OF the British. were indirectly respon.

British In the previous attack were
forced, due to this diversion, to suspend
operations before the damage sought
to be inflicted had been done.

Any device which will save room
when packing a suit case IS welcomed
by the traveller. A very compact bag
Is made Of cretonne. At the top of the
bag is folding coat hanger. The bag
is made Of one long piece of cretonne.
The bottom is turned up to form a
deep pocket. and the top is cut into a
point and forms the flap. Into the
deep pocket one can pack shoes. over
shoes and slippers. or ones comb, brush
and toilet accessories might be slipped
into 1t. Snap fasteners are used to
secure the flap so that the contents In
the bag will not fall out A loop OF
tape and button will answer the same
purpose.
To make the bag still more practical
safety pins can be placed at either end
Of the coat hanger and at the point OF
the hook. On these pins one can hang
skirts and thus make the most Of the
small closet room which one usually
finds on her vacation.
