He Follows Hun Down
Whenever possible the victor in

plane to the ground and actually sees
it smash to bits. When this happens,
to onlookers on the ground, 1t ap-
pears exactly as if both planes are
falling for the one which follows must
put his plane into a nose spin" and
fall in the wake Of the other like a
stone. 1t is only when the persuing
plane sees his victim crash that he,
at only few hundred feet from the
ground "flattens out" and goes I'D
into the sky again. Sometimes, to make
at his falling opponent as he falls in
his wake to make sure that the spin
is real and not just willy pilot "play-
ing dead" So it sometimes happens
that fall begins by pilot playing
dead and end in it becoming genuine |
In these cases the victorious pilot will |
never know whether he was firing at
an enemy trying to escape or into the
back of dead man.

Henry Lutz. Jr., son of Mayor
Lutz of Carrizozo, went to Ros-
well Thursday where he enlisted
in the Officers Reserve Corps.
Owing to the fact that Henry
has had several years of military
training and is a bright young
man it is a natural consequence
that we may expect to soon hear
o his being commissioned an
officer of high rank in the regu-
lar army.

the world except the power to
protect what we have. Experts
estimate that it will take us nine
months to get ready to meet a
German army of even $50, 900
men, with modern artillery. I'm
der such circumstances, would
the Germans treat us better than
they have already treated Bel
GUM and France?
Even if the armies of our al
lies should crush the German
military power this summer, be-
fore the shortage Of food can
reach the point of want, the
world would still need vast guam
titles of American food. But if
they do not, only one course can
make us safe, and that is to
grow food enough on our farms
for ourselves and Ger allies, and
to put ships enough on the sea to
carry the food, in spite of the
submarines, to the men who are
fighting our fight. ~,
IF the war lasts beyond this
summer, it will be the American
farmer who will win or lose the
war, who will overcome militar.
ism and autocracy, or allow them
to spread and control the world,
ourselves included.
This is no fanciful picture,
but sober fact. Many a man
will make light of it until he
comes to think it over, but ven
ture to say that few will treat I
lightly after careful thought. 1t
is no more impossible than the
great war itself appeared to be,
only a few days before it began.
1T is true that we can great
ly increase the available food
supply ont of grain now used in
making liquors, and by reducing
household waste. But when
these hi are done, and
done ney will not be
enough. ne final decision will
still rest in the hands of the men
who raise our food in the first
place.

horns. Oranges, apples and bana-

and they all felt very grateful to
Miss Fields especially for the merry
and novel games she taugnA them.
