Germany is Exposed
Our raids into Germany are from
every point of view more formidable
enterprise than the German raids in
France or England. For, in the first
place, we have to cover very long dis
tances to attain our objective, and,
secondly, we are obliged to descend
very low when actually launching our
bombs, as we have strict orders to
lombard only such points in the en-
emy's territory which are actually of
military Importance, such as barracks,
stations, etc.
What we need above all are bonn
harding squadrons, organized on a
huge scale, which can continually and
Systematically carry out raids into
German territory.

this object should be quickly attained
This will be the quickest means of
putting a stop to German raids in
France and England. 1t will also do
more than anything else to shake
the morals of the German nation and

PARIS-Captain de Kerillis of the

the great Importance of these enter

tain, ARE becoming one of the most
scientific forms of warfare. Every day
they are becoming more complicated.
First of all, one must bear in mind
that the aviation de chasse' and the
aviation de bombardment' are two
very different things.
The business of the former is to
attack, that of the latter to manoeuvre.
By manoeuvre, l mean that the func-

prevent concentration of enemy air.

Many Reprisal Raids
Then of course there are reprisal
raids, such as those we have just late
Iy carried out. About the effectiveness
of these reprisal raids, when they are
successful there is no dobt, and |
will give you an example
"On June 81 of last year, we under
took a raid on Carlsruhe as reprisal
for a recent raid on Barbecue. The
effect of the French raid was~so sal
utary, that for long time all German
raids on French towns ceased. On
German aviators, whom we captured,
we found strict orders to cease bonn
harding French towns.
With the German military author
tiles, it is entirely a question of cal
culating the gain and loss of an en-
terprise. When they decide that the
penalty for a certain enterprise is too
great, they abandon it, at least tenn
porarily In the case of the German
air-raids, which ceased for while,
such a calculation had certainly been
made. !
German System of Terror
Finally, however, the Germans evil
IDENTIFY decided that it was worth while |
beginning their terrcrizing system
again, so they started their air raids
once more, though mostly on Eng
land.
"One of the principal objects of
these raids, it must be remembered,
is to keep large portions of the Brit
ish air-f1eet in England to oppose the
invaders. The same problem is in
volved in big strategic battles, where
the principal aim of bombarding

400 YEAR-OLD CLOCK STOPS
Famous Timepiece in Hampton Court
Palace, London, Last Repaired
in 1880.

London.-The celebrated clock of
Hampton court palace that was pro-
vided with a dial to give astronomical
changes but never did so, has stopped
once more. 1t is believed to have been
constructed by German way back
in 1910, but as matter of fact his
tory fails to record the name of its
maker.
The celebrated clockmaker Vulliamy
reconstructed it in 1899, but he gave
up the astronomical Gial portion on the
ground that it never could have work
ed with the machinery provided, rele-
eating that portion of the works to the
store cupboard.
A Croydon firm Of clockmakers set
the whole thing going again in 1880,
and it has run satisfactorily until now.
Worknen are busy getting up the scat
folding necessary to reach the dial,
and after a thorough cleaning and GER
tain repairs to the dial it is expected
to run for another quarter of a cen
fury with little attentions from time
to time.

Great Oil Fire Put Out Chemically

A recent oil fire, which threatened
great quantities of gasoline on the
premises of a big refining company in
Port Arthur, Tex. was extinguished
within 80 minutes by using carbon-di-
oxide foam, according to Popular Me-
chanIcs Magazine. This is said to
be the first working demonstration In
this part of the country In which this
foam was used to put out oil fires.
The fire was started by stroke of
lightning which struck one of the oil
tanks. An explosion followed and pres
emily three tanks, containing more
than 100000 gallons of refined gaso-
line and gasoline distillate, were
ablaze. All the pipes, tanks and con-
duits on the place had been equipped
with Commanding apparatus and the
flames were out In less than half an
hour. In many, II not in majority,
of oil fires, the loss Is 30 per cent or
more, while here It was less than one
half Of one per cent of the value in

SEEK MORE FISH TO CAN
Increasing Demand for Product Has
Led to Inquiries as to Where II
Can Be Had.

There Is a perpetual and increas-
Ing demand for canned fish of all
sorts. The utilization of the dogfish,
or grayfish, es 1t Is more politely
called, has added to the opportuni-
ties of the eastern Gamers, but those
on the Pacific coast are looking to the
westward for still further supply.
The yellow and blue fin tuna (known
as the horse mackerel when they ap-
pear In eastern waters), the dolphin
and bonita are plentiful in Hawaiian
waters, and Pacific coast Gamers are
making inquiries as to the possibility
of securing a catch large enough to
warrant the establishment of can
1neries on the islands. -
The commercial fisheries of Hawaii
are almost exclusively In the hands
of the Japanese. A few years ago
they formed small companies to oper-
ate hand-propelled sampans. These
brought the fish to the Hawaiian mar
kets, where the catch was sold at auc-
ton The gasoline boats have taken
he place Of those propelled by oars
or sails and these have a steaming
radius Of thousand miles. They are
equipped with ice chambers, so that
the fish may be kept from four to six
days.
Large corporations have been
formed. One company controls 100
Japanese boats and another 49, The
tuna at present prices, retailing at 10
to 20 cents a pound, Is too costly to
permit of canning with profit. The
bonita sells at cents or less and
might be used to advantage, as it is
very plentiful.
There is also a little sardine fish
that Is taken In great numbers. The
establishment of United States gar
risons' at or near Honolulu has
greatly increased the demand for
fish, but no survey has yet been made
which determines whether canneries
can be made commercially profitable.
