When they lie prone in the she'll holes

at the observer in the air above them,
make a white polka dot pattern in the
landscape, and he can get the exact
distance the infantry has progressed.
This he wires back 70 the battery COM
manders, who extend their range so
that their barrage fire is kept at proper
distance in advance of their troops.
A miscalculaHon of the distance by
the aerial observer would result in our
own men being crushed under the fire
of their own guns. For this work the
observer must fly low, sometimes not
more than zoo or 500 feet above the
ground, so that he may accurately
Judge the distance advanced. Armored
airplanes, the nacelle of which is COW
cred with sheet steel, are now being
used for this class of work because Of
the intensity of the fire from the Boche
machine guns in the trenches opposite
them. Heretofore planes used in this
work were good only for the scrap
heap after one fight, they would be so
riddled by the enemy's bullets. The
Germans have attempted to develop an
armor piercing bullet for use against
these armored planes, as we'll as
against the tanks. but so far their sue
cess has not been great.

Walloon Peasant
On Early Morning Flight

After testing out his machine,
Batcheler called out, Ca va" and my
captain spoke 20 the peasant, who
then came out of the shadow. was
struck by the fact that the captains
tone was more than kindly--it was re-
speetful, almost deferential. This is
not always the case when q captain
addresses a peasant. | was further
ssionished when the peasant climbed
INTO the vacant seat in the biplane.
There followed short conversation in
which the peasant seemed to take the
,esd, and finally almost TO give orders.
when the question At ISSUE was de-
elded the captain stepped over 70 the
other two pilots, and gave them their
Instructions. The word was given, the
machines started, rolled the length Of
me teld, turned, and just as the first
streak OF daylight appeared Numbered
UP INTO the air. They turned toward
we lines. the escort trailing behind.

thereby giving him double the number
of rounds of ammunition carried by
the ordinary pilot. But this was not
the only reason for packing two
guns" It enabled him to mount, di-
rectly in the centre, where the single
gun would have been, a telephoto
camera, focused along the line " his
machine gun fire. The shutter was
automatically geared 10 the trigger OF
his machine gun, on the control stick.
A good pilot never fires until he is
close, very close, to his enemy-with
the fixed guns, OF course, be has to be
headed directly at him. So when Guy
nemer opened fire he automatically
took his enemy's photograph. me-
chanieal device changed the plates al
most instantly, and sometimes he would
bring back three or four exposures re-
cording the stages OF each of his bat
ties. Sometimes these are so close that
the very features of the Boche as he
met his death are discernible.
But more important for the intelli-
gence bureau is the fact that these
photos give complete record OF the
Boche planes. Every type, in every
posture, il shown, and from these pict-
ures silhouettes have been made and
distributed along the entire front, Civ

No recent act Of the Hapsburgs Is
more illustrative than the Banalpks
trial in Bosnia-Herzegovina of the
methods employed by the Hapsburgs IN
giving their most horrible crimes an
appearance Of justice and legality. And
still the facts about this trial, as =
result Of which many intellectual lead
ers of acknowledgements were sem
fenced 20 be hanged and others to suf<
fer long terms OF forced labors, are.
very little known to the world at largsS
Everything about it is typieslly Arss
trian and Characteristic of the des-'
potic HTsburgs. even the fact that the
details sbou. the proceedings were kept
secret by the Austrian censor for long
time.
On the bench of the accused there
were lJf men, all citizens Of Bosnia
Herzegovina, the Serbian province
which was nine years ago arbitrarily
annexed by the old Kaiser Franz Jo-
gef. They all were under the charge
If high treason. In addition, some OF
them were charged with the crime Of
leze-majesty. The punishment which.
the Austrian prosecutor demanded that
they receive was death by hanging.

which move them from sector TO sector,
keeping the supply at the front sta
tions always full. The caretakers and
trainers live in the lorry, and are al
WAYS connected by telephone with the
Bureau of Intelligence at the nearest
headquarters. The birds are trained
from these portable cOtes, and almost
always will find their way back TO their
own home, no matter how far it may
have been moved since they were taken
from it. This is in spite Of the fact
that there are scores Of cotes, all much
alike. Sometimes they lose their way
perhaps from shell shock or some
other incident of battle, though the
turmoil never seems to brighten them
and in that case they will alight at
another cote.
Perhaps nowhere do the Germans
make greater efforts TO corrupt the
members of the army services than in
the aviation corps. An aviator not only

certainty that it will find its way to
headquarters within a few minutes.
There was q case once. Three Allied
aviators were returning from a patrol
in the early morning, when they saw
three planes coming from the German
side and headed straight toward the
Allied lines. The anti-aircraft guns
were not disturbing them; there could
be no question that they were Boche.
The Allies covered" to prepare for an
attack. Then, just before the Boche
reached the line, the two outside
planes turned back, while the .hird
and centre one went on confidently.
The Allied pilots swooped on him-and
saw that mis- plane bore one Of the
Allies markings. There was no trial.
He fell blazing almost into the field OF
his own airdrome. He paid the price
of his treachery.
One of the most remarkable sources
Of information possessed by the Allied
sviators was due TO the ingenuity OF
Captain Georges Guynemer, the Ace OF
Aces. The ordinary Spad carries but
one machine gun, mounted directly in
the centre and in front, over the motor.
Guynemer had two mounted on his

about while on their perilOus mission.
This load Of violent death must be de-
livered, too, before the plane can at

I remember one case when a huge
Voisant bombing plane had gone out
TO amuse a certain Boche military po-
sition in Belgium. IL carried its bombs
on a mechanical contrivance, six under
the lower plane Of each wing, making
twelve in all. On its return above its
airdrome the bombardier discovered
that two Of the bombs under the left
wing had failed to fall on the release
of the mechanism. To land with these
bombs intact would be TO invite sudden
death.
So the machine few out over the

Channel. Finally the gasometer gagged
that they had used their entire capacity
Of fuel. They had TO come down, and
strange to say, they did so without in
fury. They are still wondering whether
il would have done the Boche any good
if they had succeeded in releasing these
two bombs.
One OF the greatest benefits that will
come to the Allied cause from the en-
trance of the United States into the
war will be in the multiplication OF
planes which can be used for this type
of duty. And II is for this that the

Charged With
melting to Revolt

The charges which the Austrian gov
eminent brought up against the accused
Serbians were as follows: That the
accused were members Of organiza-
tions like Prosvets, the Sokols, the
Jdgoslavia and various Pobratymstvos;
that these organizations, although edu-
catonal in character, we're melting the
people to revolt against Austria; taat
these organizations were eonnectah
with the Serbian Narodna Odbranak p
society ilSerbia, the aim OF which We
Austrian government claimed was 70
unite all the Jugoslavs SERBS, Crott.
and Sloyenes); that many OF the AZ
cused preferred King Peter OF Serbia
TO Kaiser Franz Josef; that the pc
cused were in communication during
the years 1911, 1912, 1913 and 1874
with the Serbian Major Todoroviteh;
that the accused had in their posses~
sion books and newspapers which were
forbidden in Austria.
Except the Todorovitch diary. Aus
tria had nothing with which 70 sub
stantiate her charges. She had bought
the testimony OF few Serbs who,
howeyers when they appeared on the
witness Stand confessed that they had
been forced 20 testify against men Of
IL cir own nationality.
As TO the judges who were TO decide
on the guilt or innocence OF the az.
cused, they were six in number, and all
Of them were Germans, who were we'll
known for their hostility toward the
southern Slavs. In this connection we
must bear in mind that Bosnis-Herzo-
govina has been under Austrian domi-
nation only for a brief period and
that its population Is mainly Serbian,
for which reason the Austrian govern
ment looked upon Bosnia.Herzogovins
as hostile land. And so the Austrian
Judges, who were especially brought
down to Bosnia from Vienna, were 70
have in their hands the fate OF people
whom they regarded as belonging 70
an enemy nation.
II is useless 10 say that the defence
of the accused was in vain. The ac-
oused showed that Prosveta, the Sokols
and other organizations had no cons
nection with the Serbian Nsrodrs
0dbrana and that their only aim vas
the educational and physical develop
ment Of their people. They proved that
I they we're loyal Austrian subjects and
had never communicated either with
Major Todoroviteh or with the Narodns

Big Shell Clips
Wings of Filler

One of the most remarkable things
that has happened at the front was the
clipping off of the upper wings OF
Caudron type of plane by German
she'll. The plane was in the act: OF
turning; it was sidewise TO the lines
when a shell passed right through the
struts and took both upper wings off
clean. Stranger still, the pilot was
able to land back Of our lines without
either the observer or himself being
injured. They had bad shaking up,
of course, and smashed the plane, but
they themselves were only bit cut up

the most dangerous and the most ex,
citing of all the tasks that are assigned
to the aviators. is known rs "'iarson
dTnfantrie." This is TO cooperate with
the ground forces during an attack, and
takes two forms. In the first, when an
attack is in progress, every poilu wears
a white tin disk, twelve inches in dom
eter, strapped on his knapsack. After
each rush forward the infantry must
