Air Fleet viii Not be Ready by
Spring.

Montreal, Jan. II.-Germany will
have nothing to fear from the United
States air fighting forces during the
coming spring because the American
aircraft program ''is far behind" it's
schedule, according to Major William
A. Bishop, winner of Victoria cross.
who addressed the Canadian club
here today. He is credited with
shooting down forty-five German air
craft.
Major Bishop characterized as
unfortunate" the advertising which
has been given the United States gov
ernment's aircraft program. He sail
that while France would find it inl-
possible further to enlarge her air
plane fighting forces during the COM
ing half year, Germany, knowing,
Americas intention, has greatly ex-
panded her flying corps in an effort
to gain supremacy in air warfare.
Consequently. he declared, during the
next few months Great Britain will
"have to face the most terrible time
she has yet faced and especially from
the, point of view of war in the air. !"

Turkey Reported on Verge of
Collopse.

London, Jan. I2.--Tur key is on the
verge Of collapse. SO serious is the
domestic situation in the Ottoman
empire that proposals for separate
peace were made to Russia several
months before the negotiations were
opened at Brest-Litov it was stat
ed in telegram from Petrograd to-
day. They were made through the
Russian minister at Bernf, Switzer-
land.
/ Turkey is suffering greater hard
ships than any other country in the
German alliance. She has been en-
gagged in almost continuous warfare
for six years, her finances are shat
tered and the population is on the
verge of absolute starvation.
First came the war with Italy, then
the Balkan war with Bulgaria,
Greece, Serbia and Montenegro al
lied against her. Before she had
started to recover from the effects OF
the wars, she was dragged into the
world conflict. But for the strangle
hold which Berlin has upon her, Tur-
key would probably have entered into
peace on any terms before this time.

SKATERS AIRPLANE DREAM
Howard Coffin Says 100000 Planes
Cannot be Manned in One
Year.

\ Washington, Jan. 1.-THE dream
of one hundred thousand American
airplanes within a year is-only a
dream.
Chairman Howard Coffin of the
aircraft production board, breaking
the silence about aircraft progress in
this country, advised today that such
a program in so short time is i'm
possible, involving as it would the
use of personnel of 4 million men,
an unavoidable transportation prob
lem, and housing question in Eur
ope of tremendous proportions.
Personnel and shipping bar the
path to such a realization. Between
forty and fifty men in auxiliary SER
vices are needed per plane, and witt,
shipping in the shape it. is, their
transportation and maintenance
would be impossible.
However, the aircraft program is
now well on the way to realization.
Coffin officially revealed that
Americas twenty-four training sta
tions are full, while American flyers
are getting advanced training abroad;
that materials have been information
ally standardized; that thousands of
American aero-mechanics are being
put into actual service with the allied
services; that production of stand
training machines will be in
excess of needs Of the program by
January 2o-that thousands of air
craft have been ordered abroad to
supply American flyers up to June,
1913; while advanced training planes
will begin to be delivered within nine
y days, sufficiently SO that advanced
raining for this country can be
achieved.
In the business end systematiza- -.
ion has been achieved and plans for
production are based on most eco
lines-that is, quantity pro-
luction by big plants. -

CHICAGO, Mar. Eft costs more

Millions Of dollars-how many mil

To cope with the gigantic task that
he quartermasters facee in keeping
army animals well fed, rearrange-
ment of the forage division has Just
been effected, whereby Chicago is
made the forage purchasing centre for
all OF Americas armed forces.
From the Philippine Islands to the

purchasing of forage supplies is
much more complicated than in any
other branch For example when
supply of frozen beef is needed, it is
only necessary to see five or six firms.
because these firms are practically the
only ones from which the beef can be
obtained. Consequently the purchase
is quickly affected
IN the forage branch, however, we
are faced with a much more perplex-
ing problem. Our purchases must be
made direct from dealers. and there
are thousands of them. We pick up a
carload Of hay here, another some.
where else. This not only necessita-
ties a alrge volume of correspondence
but complexities our work. Of one

Soon after my arrival In France; In

that in the British army discipline Is

of government virtue.
There are about seven million ways

There is nothing for 1t but to knit
and knit and then knit some more
and carry on. She who does not must
be forever explaining why not. It's
an obligation and all that we have to
show that our hearts are In the right
place are knitting needles, knitting
bags and such things.
The four hundredth pair of socks
may prove just a little monotonous,
but there are new knitting bags to
add the spice of variety to our daily
lives. At the ribbon counters they
are showing some immensely clever
ones along with other work bags and
"catch-alls." Those who spend their
time thinking of new things in bags
have grown to be such adopts that
life at the ribbon counter promises
to become one continual round of
joyous new bags-from now until the
end of the year. Then-unless the
war Is over-they will begin all over
again with 1919 knitting bags.
A new arrival that charms every
one is a knitting bag that looks like
a little umbrella. 1t Is made of silk
or strips of ribbon, sewed together
and cut into circle. The circle Is
cut out In six scallops at the circum-
ference and the points of these seal
lops are sewed to the ends of the
narrow strip that forms the handle
The Ordway new era., 1918-06-21

Some time before the days of mid
summer have really arrived. merchants
assemble stocks of silk street suits,
ready to be presented when the first
hot day comes. These midsummer
suits are almost untrimmed, but are
carefully designed and distinguished
by smart style-touches and niceties of
finish that place them close to the
formal suit class. Clever women
sometimes take their graceful but
plain suits and tone them up with a
little effective hand work. but even
without that, they are equal to almost
any demand.
There are many pretty suits of heavy
taffetas and Of gros-de-londre in the
displays. One OF the new taffeta suits
Is shown in the picture and it could
hardly be simpler or palmer, but 1t Is
remarkably good style. The coat opens
to the bust line. differing from earlier
styles which were open to the waist
line. 1t has a short, fiarlng skirt por-
ton with three plaits at each side and
a little dip in front, all very crisp
and spirited. Flat, white pearl but
tons fasten 1t. They invite the addi-
ton of white pique vestee and col
lar and white cuffs. Altogether they

three scallOps at each end OF the
strip. Then the handle is slipped
through small slide made of the
ribbon and when it is drawn through
the bag falls In the form Of an UNI
brella. The tassel Is sewed at the
center of the circle of silk.
Work bags that will serve for
knitting as well as other kinds Of
work are made of strips of plain
and brocaded ribbon sewed together
lengthwise like that shown at the
right of the umbrella bag. The top
Is cut in scallops and draws up on
narrow satin ribbons that run through
casing sewed along the base of the
scallops in the plain ribbon. Small
rings sewed at the sides of the bro
caded ribbon are covered with GRO
chet silk and the narrow ribbon hang
ers pass from the casing through
them.
Below this bag a smaller workbag
is gathered over large glass rings. 1t
is made of plain satin ribbon Joined
with shlrrings over cord and finished
with silk tassels. The bag at the
right Is made of narrow strips of rib
bon feather stitched together. Its
mouth Is small embroidery hoop so
It Is always open and ready to catch
what may be dropped into 1t. 1t
hangs from four cords Of silk and Is
finished with q tassel.

Got Their "LiveIy Time"

A famous lion-tamer tells of queer
Christmas present he once received. 1t
was consignment from a friend
abroad of three boa-constrictors and
five ailigators, "With Jim's best wishes
for lively time" The lion-tamer and
his wife got the lively time desired.
He says:
81 shall never forget how annoyed I
was when. during the night, two of the
alligators broke out of their boxes in
our bedroom and began exploring. 1
could not find the matches, and l and
my wife remained on top of the bed
canopy till morning. Luckily, my wife
never thought of the thing that wor-
ried me. l was afraid the alligators
might call on the boa-constrictors to
wish them Merry Christmas, and SO
wake them up too"
