Just before the Germans fled, the
wings of one of their machines was en-

dropped like q plummet.
The above dispatch is further proof

LIBERTY LOAN
 OPENS SEPT. 2S
Fourth Campaign Will Contin- ue Three Weeks, McAdoo Announces.
SIX BILLION IN SIZE
Officials Plan Intensive Cam paign to Raise Entire A. mount During Short Period.

Washington, July 31-The campaign for the fourth Lib erty loan will open Saturday, September 28, and continue three weeks, ending October 19, it was announced tonight by Secretary McAdoo.
 In fixing three weeks as the length of the campaign, in- stead of four weeks as in pre- Vious loans, treasury officials plan for a more intensive cam paign. 4 shorter campaign will also enable more business men to enlist as workers.
 The date of the campaign was announced at this time in order to allow campaign or ganizations to prepare for the sale af bonds and to prevent tle planning of other cam paigns which might interfere with the Notation of the loan.
 Size Is $6, 6,00O,000,000.
 Although official announce ment has not been made, the amount of the loan probably will be S6,0OO, O,000,000, and the rate of interest which the bonds will bear i 1-2 per cent Should the treasury decide soon to place on the market certificates of indebtedness re deemable next June when tax es are paid, the amount of the loan may be reduced.
 Secretary MeAdoo has safe that he does not contemplate making an extensive speaking tour for the fourth loan, as he has done in previous cam paigns. President Wilson has received several invitations te make addresses during the campaign, but as yet has not ! indicated whether he vii make any speeches for the loan.
 Officials in charge of the campaign have announced that a special appeal will bf made to farmers, who sub scribed liberally to the las1 loan.

A SPLENDID
 COMPLIMENT
Paid Our Fellow Townsrnan
 (. M. Hirst.

Prof c. M. Hirst is in Wyom- ing with a Chautauqua and has been travelling with them for three months and this is what the Walthill Times, of Walthill, Wyoming says about him:
 The Crew.
 A review of the ChautauQua would not be complete that does not recognize the coIr- teous interest and cooperation of the three young men who were with us during the week.
 All the local Chautauqua people recognize he credit due to MT. C. NJ. Hirst, for the splendid way in which the Chautauqua was conducted. He is a young man endowed with tact, zeal and atfability and won many friends here. Comments heard from more than one of the talent indicate that Mr. Hirst is the best Sa- perintendent on the circuit and comparison with the aver age of those who have pre- ceeded him here bears out that impression.
 We would be pelased if the bureau could guarantee as eongenial and efficient crew every season and we would be gratifed to have the per sonel unchanged another year.

tiyities until it has become necessary
to hold NEE tings of the advisory com
mittee almost weekly Two impor-
tant meetings of this committee we're
held at the state capitol last week. A
meeting looking TO the conservation

were considered and plans were laid
for the amalgamation with the Flor

Daytona, November 10, in conjunc-
tion with the annual meeting of the
Florida Federation of Women's
Clubs.
The governor reported that the &C
tivities of the state council had in.
creased to such an extent that it will
be impossible for him to take care Of
the work as chairman, and rendered
his resignation to take effect immedi
2tely, and requested that the Hon
James p Whitfield, justice of the su-
preme court, who has 50 ably filed
the position of vice-chairman, be elect
ed as active chairman.
Justice Whitfield was elected chair
man and Governor Cats was request
ed TO remain as chairman ex-officiO of
the state council
