vast, endless cyclorama. the roofs and
gray streets of a city, with river
bounding them. The roofs were d

flying above the city Of London.
thought for a moment that it was
not true; that l, because Of one man
who was plotting me through certain
uncharted spaces above the world
was not leaning over little rim OF
painted iron and staring down ut the
greatest of great cities; that those
fine lines of purple which we saw were
not houses In which people lived
houses in which people worked. houses
where men and women fulfilled the APP
pointed round of small incidents which
make up the story of the world; that
in those small houses there were peO-

that there We're tragedy and suffering
and hope and courage and faith down
there.
However. at this moment Captain \
saw cloud not too far above US and
he started climbing again. l am not
sure just how much that one particu-
lar cloud had to do with our sudden
new ascent, but we went up there, just
1000 feet above the city of London,
and we jumped that cloud.
When we started don't know what
l thought we were going to do. but this
is what we did--we bore down on that
cloud, and when ii was just before us,
small, round. Opaque, my pilot throt-
tied his motor. We dropped. We
dropped precipitately. 1t was rather
sensation this sliding off down to-
ward earth.
Then Captain X threw on the motor
to full power and brought her back to
an even keel. Then-we sailed up and
hurdled the cloud. 1t was very well
done.
After this we seemed to gather
speed for reasons unexplained; that
is, when put my hand out the wind
drove harder against it, pushing it
back. Below, suddenly, big strip of
green appeared in the heart of Lon
don.
Captain X explained about the bit
of green, with its little white paths,
which was interrupting the gray
streets of the city. First, he hammered
on the iron casing of the fusilage;
turned around. He made quick ges-
ture, reaching out toward me. l
didn't know what he wanted.
Then l saw that the captain was
handing me a scrap Of white paper,
folded, about the size of stamp.
1t was letter. 1t was not, however,

The machine plunged headlong tow
ard the earth. The motor was running
full blast. The world rushed up to
meet us. found myself staring at the
nose of the machine, which was
straight above me. Her piston rods. a

earth.
Everything was moving. Hyde Park
wasn't where it ought to have been.
The sky was not in right. The nose
Of the machine was over my head. All
wrong.
Then slice of the earth dislOdged
itself and, making circles, stood on
end. And another section of earth
rushed into it. l saw this myself.
There were some trees mixed up in 1t.

Afterward the nose of the machine
came down In front Of me, where it

thin cables on my left were vibrating
pleasantly. l looked over and assured
myself that Hyde Park was down be-

out over his windshield. He was sml-
ing-smiling and fumbling with his
goggles. Something, it seemed. had
gone wrong with them. SO far as
could see. this was the only mark OF
our having been upside down. And it
was set right straightway.
For Immediately we started turning.
The captain banked her very prettily
and l saw the little paths of Hyde Park
between the planes. Somehow 1t gave
them wonderful perspective, this
looking down the full length of the
plane.
And so we came back, over houses
and white streets, to the wide sweep
of the river. Came back straight
toward the sun, which for the first
time was shining through the mist. 1t

not brilliant because of the gray cur
tain before il.

running along. Very small, making
puffs of smoke. And the smoke was
yellow, not the clean white of the

PUBLIC HEALTH
WORK is GREAT

examined $50 people finding $50 posi-
lively infected with tracholna. Many
small communities in this state would
show almost as heavy degree of in
lection. Recently boy was found who
had been blind for ten years from
rachoma, spending seven Of those long
years in a school for the blind. He was
operated upon and after treatment for
two months was able to see to read.
A married woman with family had
been blind since her babyhoOd She
had never seen her husband or her
babies. An operation in one Of the
trachoma hospitals opened her eyes
to vision to her family and to new
world. Similar wonders are being ac-
complished almost daily by these sur
geons who are fighting trachoma.
Within the last six months 500 cases
Of trachoma we're reported from seven
counties to the state. department Of
health. A newly discovered wide
spread outbreak was recently reported
from a northern county. The depart
ment of health is endeavoring to get
all cases Of this destructive disease
found reported cured The cure is a
simple operation which, however, can
be done only by competent surgeon.

HOT WEATHER CAUSES
MILLS TO CLOSE DOWN
As the Men Who Work Therein
Refuse to Go to Work on
Account of Heat.

CHICAGO, July 28-Workmen in
the rolling mill OF the Republic Iron
and Steel Company in East Chicago,
and in the Interstate Iron and Steel
Companys mill in South Chicago, re-
fused to go to work on account Of the
intense heat this morning and as a
result both mills were closed until
the present period of heat is ended.
The men participating in the pro-
test numbered 2,100 and 1t is eX-
pected that employees of other mills
will protest against working under
the present heat conditions also.
Temperature taken in the rolling
mill few days ago ranged from
$40 to 100 degrees.
Deaths from the heat are increas-
ing in number, twenty-five being re-
ported to the podice this morning.
The number of heat prostrations also
is increasing rapidly and hospital au-
thorties declare that the recovery of
patients is retarded and often pre-
vented by the intense heat.
The weather forecaster still looked
in vain to the Northwest for signs OF
relief and declared that every indi-
cation pointed to continuance OF
the present weather conditions.

whereabouts OF the German mer-
chant submarine Bremen, long eX-
pected at some American port, is that
the ship has been captured by 4
British patroling squadron and is to-

report of the capture, which is pub

Of a high Canadian official to a bust

The letter was written in conf
lence, it is stated, but the informa-
ion it contained was divulged by the
recipient to a friend in the course
of an argument as to whether or not
the Bremen could pass through the
British barrier. The letter says:

worried by the Bremen There is
eally no cause for worry at the pres
mt time, it is tied up in what we call

lust One More Day to Work for
the Big Cash and Mer-
ChandiSe Awards.

Tomorrow night at o'clock marks
the close Of the Telegram's 10000
Club circulation campaign and the
distribution of more than $4,S5Q in
big cash and merchandise awards.
Just one short day and the big race
will DO over, the task finished, and
everything settled.
To the workers who are out after
one Of the many big prizes this last
day will pass all too quickly. In
spite OF the fact that the territory
has been thoroughly worked over in
most places, most Of the candidates
are waking up to the fact that there
are still many votes and subscrip-
tions which could be secured II the
right party goes after thom.
The extraordinary value CT tho
prizes to be distributed, ranging from
two high power Overland six-cyliGder
sutomobiles down to pianos. dia-
monds, ETC., has created urprecedent-
ed interest In the campaign both
among the actual workers themselves
and the general public. Everywhere
in Clarksburg, as well as in all the
surrounding towns, the question
who will be the winners?" Is the
question Of the hour. The answer de-
ponds In nearly every case upon tho
effort put forth between now and the
close. Never before IN any o; the
Telegram's previous campaigns have
candidates run 80 close, or proved 30
nearly equal In their popularity and
ability to. secure votes. y single
subscription may decide the Issue
when the judges make Tho anal
count. No one can tell. But 1t will
pay every worker In the race TO have
in several subscriptions too many
rather than one too few. Remember
the big special vote offer in force this
week Is forceful reason Why each
and every candidate should keep on
hustllng right up until the last min
ute.
