Sweet potatoes cannot be kept cool

French esquadrilles, brought down alone
one of seven German machines flying in
company Collins, returning from patrol
duty, noticed pulls of shrapnel in the di-

guns.
He flew at a great height toward the
pulls and found himself above seven Ger
man machines. They noticed him and
one German took position so as to be
able to attack the American if he de
scended to engage the others. Collins
turned and flew swiftly toward the
French lines as though afraid to fight.
The German, satisfied Collins had been
scared away, resumed his place with the
others. Collins returned before the enc
my machines noticed him, dived down
and fired into the last German machine.

Reports from railroad officials promise

Mr.. Wheeler points out that not all
