An automobile ride at a forty-mile

with the smoke from rows and rows of
tall black chimney stacks, whirled the

are supplying European trenches with
implements OF war. 1t won the plaudits
of $4,000 war prosperity workmen.
Their cheers were echoed by nearly
1000 Pittsburghers tonight in EXPOSE
ton Music Hall. Mr.. Hughes got a
two-minute ovation when he entered

Remarkable activities Of war aero
planes were reported to-day from the
south shore of Long Island. These
reports indicate that the allies cruis-
ers patrolling the coast are continu-

purposes and that not only the swift
boats OF the British and French. but
tho fastest craft in the navy OF the
United states are moving In more or
less unison because OF the recent de-
structive visit of the German sub

Residents Of the south shore. from

the sight OF aeroplsnes from the Min
cola aviation school that they have
come to paw no attention to an air

These airships are smaller than the
