[By Associated Press Correspondent
British Front tn France July 1s-
Having virtually been driven from the
air in the battle Of Messines, the Ger
man air forces have been attempting
to reassert themselves during the past
week by adopting the familiar old Teu-
tonic tactics of mass formations.
The British pilots report that they
seldom meet the Germans now IN
squadrons of less than fifteen ma
chimes, while occasionally they encoun :
ter an enemy aerial army" of from
forty to sixty airplanes.
None of these great formations has
yet been able to cross the British lines
for the new tactics have found the
Royal, Flying Corps prepared and NUM-
|bers have been met with numbers.
Some Of the battles of the last feW
days have found from seventy to eighty
machines involved. Some Of these en-
gagements have been well inside OF
German territory and have been barely
visible from the British lines.
Havoc Among Airmen.
The pilots engaged found the fight
ing so heavy that they had no time to
reckon the losses inflicted upon the re-
treating Germans. Lated. however'they
flew low over the ground. counting the
machines which had been burned OF
wrecked
a After one OF these general melees ten
enemy airplsnes were seen smashed,
while only two British flyers had been
compslled to quit the fight. one OF
these being able to land within his own
lines.
One young British pilot a few days
ago deliberately sat" over a German
airdrome and smashed one by one four
machines which came up to attack him.
After this exploit the pilot returned
safely, but with his machine consid-
erably shot up by machine gun fire
from the ground.

King canute's Reign.

Canute was no mere conqueror, as
had been most of his ancestors, but a
man of Viking blood, who seems to
have cared more for English men and
ways than for his own distant lands.
He befriended scholars and he made
England the center Of great northern
empire. for he conquered Norway,
ruled over Denmark and was acknowl-
edged as ruler by the Scottish King
Malcolm, by the prince Of Wales and
by all the Vikings who had settled in
the Scottish islands and in Ireland.
Unlike the earlier Anglo-Saxon con-
querors, the Danes did not replace the
inhabitants whom they had over
whelmed. They came in great num-
bers to the islands, but they were abb
sorbed into the population, which re-
manned Anglo-Saxon. But Canute's
descendants were unable to hold the
power that he had gained and soon
England was again to be conquered by
foe from across the seas.
