GOT HUNS BUTTONS
HAD RING MADE FROM ALUM.
NUM- FRAME AND BUTTONS
OF AVIATOR.

Fred Welch received today from
his son Anton WEIGH, of Brooklyn
navy yard, a ring made OF the alum
mum of a German ae%roplane, with a
bronze set of the emblem upon the
buttons of the unfortunate German
aviator who was pilot of the ma
chine. The emblem is in the form
of a Creek cross, pierced with two
swords, and would measure less than
half an inch across. Mr.. WEIGH high
ly prizes this piece of metal from a
German engine of destruction, and
was exhibiting it to friends today.
The story of the capture or the
Huns buttons is that an American
aviator brought down a German avi-
ator and his machine behind the
lines. He took parts OF the German
machine, and cut the buttons from
the hostile aviator's coat. From the
aluminium frame Of the machine ne
caused rings to be made, and from
the emblems secured at the face oil
the buttons he made a set for eacf
ring. Anton Welch considers him
self lucky in securing one OF then
which he SEM to his father.

MEN AS FOOD

A woman writing in the Marcn
Woman's Home Companion asks men
to stop scolding her sex and look to
their own faults, and she says:
'I'd like to e a count taken OF
the men who've given w eating but
ter and sweets to help win this war.
and the women who have given up
these two things! 1t might check
some of these persistent scolders OF
the American housewife and her pa
triotism. Only a few days ago q
friend of mine said to me: 1T would
all be so easy il it were not for Ar
thur. He does SO love heavy, sweet
desserts, and he wants to have steal
or roast beef every night for dinner
and bacon every morning for break
fast. I can't make him see that II
does matter, even il we have the
money to buy these things. try te
tell him that it's a matter OF honor
not to eat them all the time, SO thai
therell be enough to 60 round foI
everybody. But he only acts peevisr
and wants to increase my house al
lowance.'
IT'S incidents like this that nave
brought me to the profound belief
that after the food administration MAJ
shown the women what they can d.
to save food and check waste, then
the real work will begin. for theyl
have to make all the heavy middle
aged men with long INDUCED appe
titles come up to the scratch. too"
