The gaspinE moment during her frs,

What the uninitlated saw was al aero

What really happened was that Miss
Law ran into AN air pocket. A tail
spin. the straight, whirling drop until
a cushion OF air is created, was the
only remedy.
The successful complexion Of this
evolution saved her. Had She been
high up. the danger would have been
small As 1t was, she got by" with

BISHOP MILAN IS AIDING FOOD
 CONSERVATION
Chancellor Murray Enlisted in Campaign Doing Excel
 lent Work.

Hartford, July 19-Rev. John G. Murray chancellor of the Catholic Diocese of Hartford, has been enlist ed by the Federal Food Administra- tion for Connecticut, and already the chancellor's work among the Catho- lies of Connecticut, especially the foreign speaking, has evoked warm commendation from the high Food Administration officials in Washing ton.
 Recently, Father Murray suggested the propriety of distributing, among the French, Italian and Polish par ishes of the state, some of the very ornate posters issued by the Food Administration. The letters Father Murray asked Bishop Milan to send to the foreign speaking priests have attracted the attention of the Food Administration officials at Washington and the letter to the French pastors is reproduced as follows:
 Dear Father
 "The Federal Food Administration for Connecticut is sending you poster setting forth an appeal from His Eminence, Cardinal Mercier, in behalf of the starving people of Bel gium, France and Italy. The words of this great prelate, who has wit messed the ravages of war and fa mine for the past four years should arouse 8, spirit of mercy towards the millions who cry to America to save them from death by starvation. During the months when. MT. Hoover was the agent of the Aneri- can people in dispensing aid to the Belgians, he worked under the eyes of the great Belgian Cardinal and when the time came for the Ameri- can mission of relief to withdraw | from Belgium, the warmest ex- pression of gratitude came to MT. i Hoover from Cardinal Mercier. As American citizens and ministers of charity we should put forth every ef- l fort to obtain the support and CO., l operation of all our people in con- serving wheat, meat, fats and sugar thereby enabling the United States | Food Administration to avert the | danger of famine from our own coun. try, our military forces in Europe an5 the friendly nations who are united with us in the common struggle fol our existence.
 Yours sincerely, JOHN J. MILAN,
 Bishop of Hartford
