Wet Pigeon Means Disaster.

The worst messenger that reaches us, the officer in charge of French hydroplane station told a Morning Post special correspondent. "ls when we get a drenched homing pigeon. and when we find on examining il there is no message tied to its leg. The ar riyal of drenched pigeon requires no great diseernment for the interpreta- tiot V its message. It means tfat one of our machines has fallen into the sea, and that the situation is so des- perate that the pilot has had no time to make note of his whereabouts. The drenched pigeon is Il bird of evil omcn."

RUINED BY THEIR FREEDOM
of the Emancipated People of Athens.

On memorable occasion the assem- bled AthenianS declared 1t monStrous that they should be prevented fl om do- ing whatever they chose. No force that existed could restrain them and they resolved that no duty should re- strain them, and that they would be bound by no laws that were not or their own making. In this way the emancipated people of Athens became q tryant; and their government, the pioneer of European freedom, stands condemned with Il terrible unanimity by all the wiseSt of the aneients. They ruined their city by attempting to con duet war by debate in the market place. Like the French republic, they put their successful commanders to death. They treated their dependen- cieS with such injustice that they lost their maritime empires. They plum dered the rich until the rich conspired with the public enemy. and they crown ed their guilt by the martyrd0m of SocrateS.-Lord Acton's Essays.

of submarines. On the contrary, the two very often work together. and their cooperation usually spells diSas ter to the U-boat.
 "The stories of these fights, which are going on daily between seaplanes and submarines. would make a thrill ing epic. Here is one which happened recently: A seaplane sighted Ger. man submarine on the surface. flew directly over her before she had Il chance to dive, and dropped a bomb on her tail which was seen to mAke n large hole in the deck. Immediately afterward the seaplane pilot saw through the mist three more German submarines, in line abreast. followed by three German destroyers, and es. corted by two German seaplanes. All six vessels fired their antiaircraft guns at our seaplane but the German seaplanes did not attack because they could not get through the barrage put up by the fire of their own destroyers
 Calls British Warships.
 "Our seaplane turned, dropped an. other bomb on the wounded submarine saw her sink amidst pool of oil, in which fragments of her fiOated, anG then retired gracefully from an unequal contest,
 "This incessant and ruthless warfare against the U.boat by naval aircraft has been one of the main factors in de. feating Germany's aims and in saving the people of this country from the starvation which Germany has tried to inflict upon them. But our seapianes save life in other wnys. As already mentioned. their mere presence has many times saved n merchant shiI when q submarine has been attacking 1t. Moreover, when the tragedy has actually occurred and the torpedo has found Its mark, it Is the seaplane which is the first to see the shipwrecked crews in their bouts. to send wireless messages for assistance and to direct the rescuers to the right spot.
 Tt is the seaplane and the other air craft which first sight the deadly mine. and so help the minesweepers in their task. In word. if is the naval air. craft which has been, and Is, saving the lives not only Of those who traverse the seas, but of every man. woman and child in the British isles, who oth. erwise would be threatened with star vation. The strike at Coventry already has been a serious blow to the empire a repetition there or elsewhere would be disaster which cannot be contem- plated, for the consequences would be so far-reaching that no one could prop erly estimate them.
 "Without constant stream of new aircraft to replace the inevitable heavy wastage in machines the struggle against the German submarines will be prolonged, food become dearer, and last, but not least, the lives of our sail ors exposed and in many cases need. lessly lost. This is war necessitating complete cooperation of the whole of the British empire, and In the event of lack of aircraft the eyes of the navy will grow dim."

Important Factor in Defeat of
 Submarine Drive.
SPEED IS GREAT ADVANTAGE
Seaplsnes Battle Submarines, Detect Mines and Rescue Seamen-Co-op- eration With Naval Vessels Robs German Campaign of Effectiveness Stories of Daily Fights Would Make Thrilling Epic.

"As everyone knows, aircraft are used for many purposes In this war, that most familiar to the public being the direction of artillery fire at the front" writes special correspondent in the London Daily Telegraph. This is one of the ways In which aircraft preserves human life, but far more eN- tensive in it's consequences is the use of aircraft at sea to protect us from the submarine menace. Had it not been for the cooperation of our air craft, the antisubmarine campaign would have been far less effective, the people of Great Britain and certain of stiffer rations, and the central pow. CTS would have been unduly elated.
 Here are a few figures relating to the work which naval aircraft per formed during the month of Septem- Der, 1917. The total distance covered by the patrols was 10000 miles, of which 90,OO0 miles was covered by sea planes and S0,000 miles by airships, On seven occasions ships which were being attacked by submarine. sent O s signals, which brought sea planes to their assistance in time to save them by compelling the subma, lines to dive. Several hundreds of ships were conveyed
 Speed a Big Advantage
 Unfortunately the number of sub marines attacked and destroyed by our aircraft cannot be published, but a few words may be said as to the method of attack When a destroyer sights a submarine some i've or six miles away, he goes full speed to the attack at about thirty miles an hour, so that the submarine has ten minutes or so in which to dive beyond the reach of the destroyer's depth charges.
 "But when a seaplane sights . sub marine al the same distance he r1ies to the attack at anything from so to 100 miles an hour, so that the sub marine has only three or four min utes before bombs begin to fall around her. It must not be assumed, how. ever, that destroyers have been super seded by the seaplanes as the enemy

British children all over the country wherever the chestnut tree grows arc gathering horse chestnuts as told in the Christian Science Monitor. It is their particular contribution to the winning of the war. for ripe horse chestnuts have been discovered to pro- vide good substitute for the grain which Is used In the making of muni- tions. It will be quite valuable serv- Ice, for the computation Is that every ton of chestnuts will save half a ton of grain.

Red Terror Kept Up
In Russia, Despite
Protests of Allies
British Envoy, Freed From
Jail, Reports Murder
Mania Is Still Rife

STOCKHOLM. Oct IA (Ry The Asso-
ciated Press).- The deplorable condi-
tions brought about in Russia by the
:" Red terror" of the Bolshcviki were re-
viewed to-day by the party Of Entente
refugees which accompanied r. II. g.
Lockhart, of the British diplomatic SER
vice. from Moscow. Mr.. Lockhart and
his party were released by the Bolshc-
wiki in exchange for NJ Litvonoff, the
Bolshevik representative in London.
They were taken from the jail in
Moscow direct to the tram which
brougt them to the border
Despite protests made by neutral
ministers the wholesale slaughter of
pcrso charged with counter revolution
continues unabatcd. The Red terror had
not subsidized in the slightest when the
party left Russia. Large numbers were
being executed daily on the slightest
preteXt and under the most revolving
conditions
The mania for murder is so strong
among the Bolshevik officials. the refu-
gees say. that they even shoot their
own partisans. The firing squads take
delight in forcing condemned men to
jump from automobiles and in shoot
ing them before the eyes of the other
victims. Many executions take place
in the Hodinla parade grounds. These
are in charge cf Lettish troops. The
victims are shot with revolvers and the
bodies fall into open trenches. Wet
concrete Immediately is thrown over
them so that it is impossible for rela-
tlves to identify and claim the bodies.
There is much sickness in Moscow as
the result Of starvation and ill-trcat-
