looming is sponsor for the following
tale of the first solo flight of young
cadet officer named Reiber.
Cadet Reiber's flight carried him a
few miles from San Antonio. Travel
ling at slow speed he observed some
cowboys and decided to descend. He
asked the cowboys the distance back
to San Antonio. Then gust of wind
rocked the big gas bag gradually carry
ing it upwards. The cadet asked the
cowboy to tie his anchor to fence.
the balloon tore away carrying the
fence with it.
After travelling about mile the
balloon began to descend under the
weight of it's tail" Reiber was sur
prised to see the cowboys coming gal
Looping after him. When the balloon
was near the ground one OF the cow
boys tied the end of the rope to the
pommel Of his saddle.
Another gust hit the balloon and
rose again carrying cowboy and horse
with it, Reiber was in perplexing
situation and decided to release
enough gas to descend. About the
same time the cowboy drew his re-
volver and began firing at the rope
but before the cowboy had hit the rope
Reiber had landed him safely. The
rope then was released and Reiber
started for his station apparently hav-

SURPRISING The Finished Mystery"

The State Council of Defense acted with dis
patch when it discovered that 1.-THE Finished
Mystery" contained pro-German and disloyal
statements The book ought to be suppressed
and persons selling it ought to be punished. In
the meantime the department Of justice has or
dered the book off the market.
The present hour is fraught with questions
so momentous and far reaching in their ultimate
results that this nation cannot tolerate the slight
est manifestation of disloyalty or the most in
significant statement that would lead people to
lose their love and faith in the United States.
Books and speeches that tend to loosen the
loyalty or weaken the morale of our people must
be dealt with summarily. 1.-THE Finished Mys-
terry belongs to that class. 1t described patriot
ism as certain delusion.' and "a narrow mind
ed hatred of other people, and war as "a work of
Satan"
The charge that the clergy fostered opposition
to Pastor Russes book is unfounded. No min
lister in Richmond was asked for his opinion of
the book. It is safe to say that none of them
read the book or were acquainted with the inves-
tigation of the county council of defense. The
book was put on the interdicted list because it
strikes at the best interests of the nation.
