HAD AN EXCITING MOMENT
Unusual Feat of British Aviator in
Palestine Is Worth Committing
to History,

A trench newspaper published by
one of the British divisions in Pales-
tine gives the following account of
an unusual feat by a British airplane
In the fighting zone:
zone of our aviatOrs was forced nv
engine trouble to land 10 miles inside
the Turkish lines. His engine was
misfiring, but produced sufficient DOW
er for taxing and short hops. but
not for flights. Presumably the valves
of two or three cylinders had broken
or stuck.
But the pilot did not give I'D hone
and succeeded in taking the whole
way to the British lines over the level
sand. On the way he crossed Tur.
kish encampment, and his undercar.
riage brought away clothes line and
number of Turkish shirts. The
pilot was attacked by several detach.
ments armed with rifles and machine
guns, but they invariably fed when
he charged on them with his gun.
Two or three German airplanes dived
and fired bursts at him, but luckily
hit no vital part"

Saint Gaudens' Home.

There is a plan afoot to make the
Saint Gaudens estate at Cornish. N.
H., public property, and to open it to
all those interested in American sculp-
ture. Cornish Is a small town among
the wooded hills of quiet country
side. Though the sculptor lived there
for the greater part of twenty years,
the place is little known to the outside
world 1t is greatly beloved, how
ever, by that little colony of artists
whom Saint Gaudens gathered about
him, and reminds one, in its simple
fashion, of that other artist village,
the quaint and beautiful Broadway Il
England, the abode of Mary Anderson.
and known for years as the home of
Abbey.
