KNIGHTS THINK
CAPE site IS
0. K. FOR HOME
Lodge Officials Depart For
st. Louis After Admitting
Cape Rock Tract.
CAN'T SAY YET, BUT
THINK CAPE WILL WIN
To Go East Before Returning to
Headquarters in Kansas-En-
tertained Here.

After visiting the sites offered b,
| the local council of the Knights and
Ladies' Of Security, yesterday morn
ing, the three national officers of the
order, who arrived here Monday morn
ing, agreed that Cape Girardeau was
the ideal place for the national home
to be built by the order for the widows
and orphans of the Knights and La.
dies of Security.
The committee, composed Of James
Kirkpatrick, national president; w. d.
Cox, national vice president, and Will
liam A. Billy, national treasurer, de-
parted early this morning for St..
Louis on their way East to visit sew
eral other cities which are applicants
for the home. 1t will be erected
cost of nearly 100000. A quarter of
a million dollars has already been APP
propriated for the initial expense of
the construction of the building.
The Cape Rock site met with the
hearty approval of the three national
officers of the order. They declared
it was an ideal place for the home, but
would not say definitely whether the
home would be located here. They
have several other cities to visit before
making their report as to what places
are suitable for the location of the
building.
The national officers will make their
report on the inspection trip to the
location committee, which will decide
where the home is to be located. It
is probable that this committee, be-
fore deciding where to locate the home,
will visit all the places which have been
suggested for the home
The committee of national officers
arrived here in special car accom-
panied by Postmaster Thomas J. Ju-
den, president of the local council, and
f. w. Flentge who went to st. Louis
Sunday morning to meet the lodge
men. They were met at their car by
a delegation Of the Commercial Club
and other prominent business men.
The visitors were taken out and
shown the sites, whereupon they re-
turned to the St. Charles Hotel for
dinner. In the afternoon the officers
were entertained with a car ride
through the city during which numer-
Gus photographs of the city were
taken.
A special meeting of the local coun-
Gil was held Monday in the evening
which was attended by record crowd.
All members of the council were pres
ent. The advantages Cape Girardeau
offers over other competitors were dis
cussed.
The final selection of the site for
the national home will be made by a
committee of ten, composed of the ma
tional officers and other prominent
members of the order. The inspection
trip of the national officers is being
made for the purpose of eliminating
places that do not appear to offer prop
er advantages.
Mr.. Juden was elated over the result
of the visit of the national officers.
He believes that it is certain Cape
Girardeau will be selected. He said he
had received information that the race
would be between several cities in
Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. The
latter State is the homo of the order.

sandy loan is confined to the south
eastern corner of the county. The
very fine sandy loan occurs in this
same section near Naylor. The silt
loan is developed along the Little
Black River.
The Memphis series is represented
by the silt loan which has brownish
surface soils, buff upper subsoils, and
light to yellow clay lower subsoils. It
occurs along the outer edge of the
uplands, bordering the bottom lands
in the southeastern part of the county.
The Holly series is represented by
the silly clay loan which has mottled
grayish and rusty brown surface soils.
1t is most extensively developed in the
southern and southwestern parts of
the county, occupying first bottoms
along Mulberry, Hurricane and Four
che Creeks and their tributaries.
The Hagerstown silt loan has brown
surface soils and is developed mainly
in the southern part Of the county
where it occupies slopes adjoining
creek bottoms.
The Lintonia series has brown surf
ace soils. The fine sand is developed
and the Waverly soils. This can be
furnished by applications Of bsrnyard
manure and the turning under Of le-
sumes and other green crops. Deep

BOMBING THE WAY TO BERLIN

"A
A very poplar question asked by
an estimable reader 10. why isn't
Berlin bombed by the allies forth
with?"
The first land main reason why
Berlin has been immune from air
raids is that the Prussian headauar-
ters are out of modern airplane
range.
Berlin is 450 miles from the west
ern battlefront; il is 500 miles from
England and nearly $50 miles from
the North.sea.
The shortest distance-out and
home-therefere would be 500 miles,
even if an allies airplane operated
from a North Sea base If start
was to be made from land base it
would be 900 there and back.
Experts tell us that under war CON
ditions bombing airplane, with a
reasonable cargo of explosives, can
hardly exceed 400 miles ON one run
800 miles is ABOUT the average
1t will thus be seen that an air
plane cannot bomb a place over 200
miles from its base and return home
again.
So, for the present, Berlin seems
safe from an airplane bombing. If
Zepps were used and available it
could be possibgie.
But Berlin will not remain immune
from bombs long. There is a steady
development of airplane design, con-
struction and speed.
Machines are growing in speed and
power and this is going to bring Der.
lin within range.
But, although Berlin is for the pres
.ent safe, there are many German
towns within range-there are the
Rhine bridges-the Krupp works ths
big military railroad centers.
Already intrepid airmen are ter
rorizing the Teutons with their daring
raids. And American aviators are
in the thick of it-doing marvellous
feats.
The road to Berlin will be opened
by the punishment being melted out
on land, and in the air.
II we cannot bomb Berlin we can
bomb our way to Berlin.

WINNING THE WAR IN THE All

The fiat has gone forth that this
war must be won in the air.
And the United States is expected
to materially aid in bringing about
that result.
But airplanes are not made in a
minute like a breakfast beverage
The making Of these wings of vic
tory is, in eject, a miracle.
With all the knowledge OF our skill
ed workmen, with all the genius Of
our experts to draw upon, with all
the information that experience and
experiment have made available for
us to use, we are told that it is not
likely that we shall see more than
the battlefront by the spring of 1918.
This is big number, but it is but
the foundation of larger plans and
work.
1t is said that by 1919 we shall be
manufacturing 1000 airplanes a
month and that we shall have $500
of them ready for the campaign of
that year-should the war last that
long.
A writer in the Aemircan Review
| of Reviews, speaking Of the works of
airplane manufacture, says,
| How many of us realize what
what it means to build not
only $4,000 airplanes, but Just
one pair of wings on which a I,
brave man may soar among the
I clouds, Just one trustworthy eli

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET HucruATED.
International War Bonds Showed In'
 creased Strength.

New York, April 3.-Operations on | the stock exchange today denoted the
 mixed feeling and bewilderment of professional traders arising from over night developments. The presidents s message to congress caused an ire gular demonstration of strength. at the opening, important shares, however, failing to- respond in more than 2 minor degree.
 Selling for profit materially reduced most gains before the end of the first hour, but at noon prices recov- cred midway on a moderate resump- tion of demand. The entire list, with a few unimportant exceptions, fell back in the last half of the session, the reversal being simultaneous with the failure of the senate to take ac- tion on the war resolution s:sr 5,sss

 The irregular course of the stock market was indicated by the move ments of such leaders as United States Steel made an extreme advance of over two points to 11S 3-4 in the first half hour on buying of a seemingly substantial character, but fell back to 115 7-8, closing at 1Io I-o, net loss of half a point

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE WARMLY
 WELCOMED BY BRITISH.
No News of the Past Year Has So Stirred the Country, Save Russian Revolution.

London, April 3, 11.35 p. m--Presi- dent Wilson's message aligning the United States with the nations fighting against Germany was warmly well comed and unanimously acclaimed by the British people They recognize that no decision with a weightier infiu- ence upon the result of the world struggle has been given since Great Britain, after a few days of consid- eration, resolved to march with France. No news of the pats year has so stirred the country, save only the Russian revolution.
 There have been no street demon strations or exhibitions of excitement, such as the first weeks of the warssaw in London, because the war has long since passed the stage of excitement and is regarded here as in America a neavy and solemnly borne duty. The substance and tone of the president S message was an electrifying surprise. The directness of his indictment of the German methods and his whole heart ed statement of Americas duty to maintain her rights and of her duty to civilization was more than the pulp lie here expected.
