The strength of German positions
on the western front, as proved dur
ing the past four months when the
British and French made many sue
cessive drives, convinces military
observers that another method Of
attack must be decided upon If the
enemy is to be vanquished in the
shortest possible time.
With this fact demonstrated clear
ly to the home governments, the ad-
vice Of military men is being taken,
and preparations are under way for
gigantic attacks by air upon the
vulnerable bases of the German
army and navy. German officials
know this. and frantic efforts are
being made to forestall the allies.
The boast of her rulers has long
been that enemies of the Fatherland
can never carry the war into Ger
many. They are becoming fearful
now lest their own land be devas-
tated by exploding bombs dropped
from thousands of airplanes.
Flights to German territory from
British vessels in the North sea and
by French and British airplanes
from points behind the battle line in
France and Belgium number in hun
dreds. Very little is made public re-
garding these. Military men say this
is because only slight military value
has been attained through the aerial
attacks. Only a few airplanes were
engaged in the raids as compared
with the number necessary for sue
cessful military operations.
Strategic Points Vulnerable.
But the attacks have proved that
vulnerable and strategic points in
Germany can be reached from the
air. The few airplanes that were
sent upon these raids were merely
scouts of others which are to be
sent forward. 1t is we'll within the
range Of possibility, too, it has been
demonstrated by actual test, that
Berlin can be reached and lombard
ed from the sky.
The accompanying map shows
how distances from points in Eng
land and France and in Germany
compare with distances in the United
States. Taking the first comparison,
shown at the top of the map, it can
be seen that the distance from
Grimsby, England, to the vicinity Of
the Kiel canal is the same as that
from New York to Buffalo. Many
flights have been made in America
and in Europe where the distance
covered was greater than that which
military aviators who mean to at
tack CuXhaven or the Kiel canal
will have to make. Victor Carlstrom
and Ruth Law are two of the avia-
tors who have flown further than
would be requqired to make that
flight.
The Kiel canal, guarded by water
batteries at the estuary of the EIbe
and the massive defenses of Cux-
haven, with the mine fields and the
outpost at Heligoland, is safe from
attack by warships, as Rear Admiral
Fiske points out. But, regardless of

Patsy gives Miss Caprice a rare
opportunity to charm her thousands
Of admirers. 1t gives her natural
mischievousness fun play and her
captivating smile a chance to drive
it's happy message home. In addi-
ton June gets into the liveliest lot
OF adventures ever encountered by
little girl in her teens.
The incident most enjoyed by the
romping little star was when she up
set a small town bully in brook.
This young man tries to annoy June
and her little playmates while they
are in wading. June lures him to the
edge of the stream and sneaking be-
hind him shoves him overheard.
June's smiles when she sees the
fellow splash into the water are far
from s.~@s smiles. She thoroughly
enjoyed the prank, especially when
she had the chance to repeat the
ducking three times.
Others who are appearing in sup
port of Miss Caprice are: Jane Lee,
Edna Munsey and Ethyle Cooke.
