THIS VETERAN CARPENTER
LIBERTY BOND SALESMAN
Persuades Fellow Workers at Camp
Ordway to Invest Surplus
Earnings.

These are the days when carpenters
are in demand as never before They
are getting wages they never dreamed
of. The government in building six
teen great cantonments for the Ma
tional Army and scores of other mobi-
iization and training camps has need
of so many thousands of carpenters
that any man who can push a saw or
swing a hammer is getting from s6 to
S11 a day.
What's this got to do with liberty
bonds?
Just this much. Out at Camp Ordway,
where the District Guard was en-
camped and where the government is
now building a training school for ma
chinists. one old carpenter has been
preaching the gospel of liberty bonds
until he has about two-thirds of the
carpenters employed there buying at
least one
This old carpenter has been talking
around among the men. He has adj
vsed them that they are making more
money than they ever did before and
that they can't expect this heyday
OF prosperity to last. So he, has been
urging them that they hold down in
their expenditure to something like
what they have been accustomed to get
as pay. and to put the rest away for
rainy days.
Having brought many of them to
this way of thinking. he next sug-
gested that their present affluence is
caused by the war needs of the country
the best thing they can do is to turn
back the surplus they are saving and
make il loan to the government to
end the war quickly. He points out
that this will in reality be helping
their own trade. for when the war is
over there will be more building to he
done than ever before in the history
of the world.
AS a result of this little business
talk. this application of practical COM
man sense TO their conditions. tinged
with just a little bit of patriotism
this one old carpenter. who never be-
fore had enough money at one time to
buy single liberty bond has been in
strumental in making subscriptions of
several hundred thousand dollars

TWO AMERICAN AVIATORS
WIN HONOR ON WAR FRONT
Each Brings Down an Enemy Air
ship in France, Displaying
Bravery and Skill.

PARIS. October 22-George Z. Tur-
nure of s4 Wall street. New York. an
American aviator. brought down a Ger
man biplane last Wednesday in the
neighborhood of Furness The German
was flying directly toward the German
lines. but the faster speed of Turnure's
machine permitted him to take a IA
vorable position and fire into the tail
of the enemy's plane. After about
twenty shots had been fired the Ger
man craft fell straight to the ground
inside the French lines Later it was
learned that the same machine pre-
viously had been attacked and its OBJ
server killed, and that the pilot was
trying to reach his own lines when he
was brought down by Turnure's guns
Turnure has just reached the age of
twenty-one.
PARIS. October 21.-Phelps Collins,
son of Richard II. Collins of Detroit
an American aviator serving with one
of the French squadrilles. brought
down alone one of seven German ma
chimes flying in company. Collins, re-
turning from patrol duty. noticed puffs
of shrapneI in the direction of Ypres
from allied anti-aircraft guns.
He flew at a great height toward the
puffs and found himself above seven
and one German took position so as to
be able to attack the American if he
descended to engage the others Col
Inns turned and flew swiftly toward
the French lines as if afraid to fight
The German, satisfied Collins had been
scared away. resumed his place with
the others Collins returned before the
enemy machines noticed him, dived
down and fred into the last German
machine. which doubled up and fell in
flames. He escaped before The siy otharS
could fire upon him
Collins is twenty-three years old, and
was educated in the University of
Idaho.

Germany and Austria have made
