termination of year long efforts to
bring the sealskin dressing and dye
ing industry to the United States

OAKLAND AVIATOR
DROPS INTO MUD

OAKLAND. Nov. Narrowly
escaping death when his biplane
carried him headfirst into the
mud of Alameda creek from
height of 500 feet, Harold B.
Smith, an Oakland boy trying for
a pilots license preparatory to
offering his services to the Brit
ish army, lost four teeth today,
suffered severe decorations and
bruises of the face, head hands,
legs and arms and possibly in
ternaI injuries. Assembled avi-
ators, watching the flight, rushed
to his aid, to find that the ma
chine in turning a complete SOM
ersault had struck its driver in
the back, plunging him headfirst
and shoulder deep into the sticky
marsh. Heroic measures were
necessary at the hospital to free
his mouth and nostrils from the
tightly packed clay.

plunged it's population into dire dis
tress. Did we complain? Did the
victims themselves complain? No.
Their sufferings were acute, but they
believed the north was fighting in
the cause of human liberty and
moral right, and therefore they were
patient.
Some reciprocity, it may seem
to Americans, as well as to us,
might be expected from Washington
in the day of our trial.
Another point we cannot pass
over is the eXtravagant character
of the language of the note. We
make allowances, however, for the
eXigencies of American domestic
politics and attribute to them the
choice of adjectives and a turn of
expedition not usually found in in
formal intercourse between the gov
ernment's of great people"

a sensation among the worshippers at

emn elevation of the host, one of the
most sacred portions of the Roman
Catholic mass, was in progress and
the fact that the congregation was
kneeling gave the man the opportun-
ity to remove his shoes unnoticed,
and drive in the nails. 1t was neces-
sary to secure a hammer to pry the
spikes loose.
Judge Mallah, of San Luis Obispo,
who was in the congregation, was
quoted by Father Charles Raym of
ST. Mary's cathedral as expressing the
belief that it was the same man who
attempted n similar act about n
month ago in a San Luis Obispo
