Why He Joined Air Service.

Few men, l am sure, would confess
TO so strange an Immediate cause for
joining the aviation service as that re-
lated to me by Drew, as we sat over
our coffee and cigarettes, on the eve
ming of our first meeting, writes James
N. Hall in the Atlantic. He had come
to France, he said, with 1.-THE intention
of joining the Legion Etrangere as an
infantryman. But he changed his
mind, few days after his arrival in
Paris, upon meeting Jackson of the
American Aviation squadron, who was
on leave after service of six months
ut the front. 1t was all because of the
manner in which Jackson looked at u
Turkish rug. He told him of his adj
ventures in the most matter-of-fact
way. No heroics, nothing of that sort.
He had not q glimmer of Imagination,
he said. But he had way of looking
at the floor which was Irresistible,
which fascinated him with the sense
of height He saw towns, villages, a
network of trenches, columns of toy
troops moving up ribbons of road-all
in the patterns of Turkish rug. And
the next day, he was at the headquar-
tiers of the Franco-American corps, in
the Champs Elysees, making applica-
ton for membership.

The campaign to enlist the 600 men
who are still needed to fill Maryland 8

up by Capt. Robert j. Mckinney, the
Baltimore recruiting officer.
The quota which was assigned to
this state was at the beginning $3.50

more station has done in the way of
getting volunteers for the Army. A
special detail was sent to Camp Meade
Monday to try to induce some of the
lsborers to enlist. Capt. Mckinney
said that care would be token to see
that the supply of labor for the build

SPECTER OF GREAT LAKES
Rannockburn Which Disappeared
in Mysterious Fashion.

One superstition that is firmly
rooted in the minds of all Great Lakes
navigatorS concerns the mysterious
wreck of the Bannockburn.
''She was a big, powerful freighter,
carrying a crew of - men. She cleared
Duluth on day in the late fall. What
happened to her will never be known.
She went out in the morning, and was
last sighted the next evening. That
was the end. For more than a year
the chill water of Lake Superior guard
ed well their secret. Then one day
an oar was found floating along the
driftwcod of the bleak north shore.
a piece of tarpaulin was wrapped Sc
curely around ii, and when this was
removed it was found that the word
Bannockburn was scraped into the
wood. The oar is all that remains to-
day TO tell the story of the missing
freighter.
According TO the queer twist given
the story by the sailors of the inland
seas, the Bannockburn is supposed TO
be the Flying Dutchman of the Great
Lakes. Sometimes ar night, when the
chill north wind sweeps across the
swollen bosom of Lake Superior and
the singing ice devils fill the air, the
lookout on some lonely point calls
loudly to his companions and points
to where he imagines the Bannock-
burn. all white with ice and CHASTITY
in the darkness is Shining through
the black mystery of the lake."

'If | do not appear before the king
he will cut my head off and if 1 do not

This treatment of the mother-in-law
is, however, not common to other Afri-

APPEAL TO SAVE FREIGHT CARS
Demand Of Freight Greater Today Than
Ever in History Of Country

Because the demand for freight
cars is greater today than ever be-
fore in the history of the country, and
is increasing daily. the Commission
on Car Service of the Railroads War
Board has issued a second appeal
asking still further cooperation from
both shippers and receivers of freight
The Commission states that the
ability of the railroads TO move crops
depends largely upon the full loading
of cars and the elimination of all de-
lay in loading and unloading them.
The movement of lumber TO the
environments and the shipping yards
has monopolized the use of more than
100000 cars and made serious inroads
into the supply that under normal
conditions would handle the move
ment of crops and food products. To
offset this handicap and secure the
maximum amount of service from
the cars that the nation is dependent
upon for the transportation of food
supplies, the following suggestions
are made to shippers and receivers:
Unload promptly all loaded cars re-
ceived.
Load promptly all outgoing cars
and release them Immediately to the
railroad
Anticipate disposition of freight be-
fore its arrival
Do not order special types of cars
when ordinary types will serve.
Eliminate use of railway equip
ment when tonnage can be handled
by motor trucks or wagon.
Load all cars to their full carrying
capacity.
The Commission on Car Service
points out that there are six ways in
which the loading of cars to their full
carrying capacity can be achieved,
and enumerates them as follows:
More careful supervision of loading.
Producers and buyers agreeing to
disregard established trade units and
increase the units as a war measure.
Waving rights in regard to mini
mum weights under tariff and traffic
regulations.
Buyers increasing their orders so
as TO fill the car, and producers dis
posing of their output on a basis of
full carrying capacity of equipment
furnished
Buyers who cannot handle larger
quantities clubbing together with
other buyers to make full capacity
cars.
Showing customers who desire,
merely as matter of convenience,
smaller units than maximum, how
they can help the general situation by
enduring inconvenience.
Reports from practically all parts
of the country indicate that the move
ment of grain and food products is
going to be especially heavy during
the next few months. AS more than
100000 recruits for the draft army
VIII have to be transported to the
environments next month and as SINH
lar unusual traffic movements pro-
duced by the war are pending the
Railroads War Board feels that
everyone should cooperate in the
movement of freight.
Keep the cars moving with a full
load and settle differences of opinion

Fine Attraction AT Colonial Tomorrow

Montague Love in story that is
absolutely unique entitled 1.-The Brand
of Satan" will be the extraordinary
fine attraction st the Colonial Theatre
tomorrow evening.
Here is a drama that is entirely
different from the ordinary kind of
drama. 1t tells the story of a man
with dual personality-when nor
NAL he is kind hearted and lovable,
when abnormal he is brutal and beast
ial. The story is thrillingly fascinat-
ing. 1t grips and holds your attention
tenaciously from start to finish. The
interest in this powerful story be-
comes more tense from moment to
moment until the drama closes in a
smashing climax.
Montague Love in this production
handles difficult role with the great
est success. Acting that is superb
and settings that leave nothing to be
desired, mark this offering as truly
exceptional.
