as formidable as any car ever pro-
duced, and in the judgment of these
experts was far more formidable than
any of them.
An aviation captain gave an in
stance of what had been accomplished
in a straight rise from the ground.
which constitutes record far exceed
ing anything before. This was made
in one of the Liberties recently turn
ed out here. 1t was not regarded as
one of the best of the machines. and
the workmen even dubbed it False
Alarm!" But it soon proved its
rights. 1t was sent to one of the
training fields. and on one of its first
ascents 1t shot up straight from the
ground to the height of 20,400 feet
in 35 y minutes.
cit is the fastest time human
being has ever gone up" said the
captain, land it gives an idea of what
is ahead when these squadrons are
in line"
If details could be given on. the
number of these planes and the squa-
drons equipping for the battle line 1t
would cheer those who have grown
heart-sick with waiting and charges
and investigations, and would let
them know the day of real accom-
plishment was at hand in the thick
of the fighting. Without giving num-
bers. 1t can be said that we saw these
machines crowding vast workshop
in such arrays that their wings touch
ed and covering much more than the
area of city block. They were not
piece-meal cars, but all ready to go
forward. They have been passing by
the score daily into the hands of the
aviators. and squadron after squadron
was being made ready for the front.
The testing of the engines gave an
idea of the tremendous power of the
new cars. The cars were anchored
by heavy chains, and workmen grip
ped the long body to keep it from
plunging as the propeller started and
the engines gave out long wall. The
men, gripping the chains and rigging.
were swept as tho in tornado, the
grass was nattened and great clouds
of dust rose like the smoke of bat
teries.
The suction of the propeller while
the car is ON the ground is far great
er than has ever been known with
other cars. A workman was drawn
in and killed the other day, and the
ergat maelstrom of rushing air sucks
in everything coming within ten feet
of its mouth.
How many are turned out daily
cannot be stated, but 1t can be said
that the capacity of this big airplane
center working in S-hour shifts il so
complete airplanes a day. And in
these days when the mobilizing of
| machines follows close on the mob
| ilizing of men. the actual production
is not far from the full capacity.

A. II. c. Notes

The Red Cross will repeat used
clothes week" at the request of the
government and the week of Sep
tember 23 to.30.- is the week set for
the drive.
Every kind of garment, for all ages
and both sexes, is urgently needed.
In addition piece goods, light, warm
canton flannel and other kinds of
cloth from which to make garments
for babies, ticking, sheeting and
blankets, woolen goods of any kind,
and shoes of every size are asked for.
Scrap leather is needed for repairing
foot wear.
Since the clothes will be subjected
to the hardest kind of wear, only
garments made of strong and durable
material should be sent. They need
not be in perfect condition, but should
be as clean as possible.
The people of the community are
urged to respond to this appeal. All
contributions must be in the Red
Cross rooms next week in order that
there may be no delay in shipping.
The work in the sewing room is
piling up. 200 banuaged foot socks,
40 comfort kits, bedside bags and
still few dresses are waiting. Come
and help!

August 4, 1913.
Dear Home Folks:
Here 1t Is Sunday again and we are
back from our second trip to the
trenches. 1t was an honor that we
were in this time. The company that
was going to put on the offense want
ed us to back them up. They put
on the attack and got few prisoners
and killed good many. We only
had few casualties. We have put
on several barges since.
We are to have five days rest be-
fore we start drilling again. This
is our program. They call us at
$50 have revellie at 6, breakfast
$50, fatigue (you call it work. and

up at 4:3O and go about miles for
formations and then drill all day.
Now we stand all formations in front
of our billets and drilling is not to
be so hard.
We are getting some awful good
eats now too. We have been having
an awful lot of fresh tomatoes and
pickles. and variety of things. We
had oatmeal for breakfast this morn
ing. That's the first we've had over
here. 1t was good too. OF course
we never got cream on it, but it was
cooked just right and was plenty
sweet
Apples are pretty good size now.
They ought otbe ripe about the next
time we get back.
They have been having an awful
lot of rain her of late.
The people here are more hospit-
able than anywhere we have been l
believe. They won't call themselves
Germans. That is really what they
are but they call themselves Alsace
race. That's between the French and
German. Lots of them can talk En-

GERMAN GRAVEYARD
PROBLEM FOR AMERICANS
Burial Place and Laudatory In
scriptions Northeast Of st. Mihiel
Easily Offensive to French.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE LORRAINE FRONT, Friday, Sep
TENDER 20 (by the Associated Press).
Speculation is rife in the Ameri-
can Army as to what will be the dis
position of the German graveyard
found just northeast of st. Mihiel, on
the Vigneulles road, and which.
though eloquent testimony to German
regard and honor for their dead, may
easily be considered offensive to the
French. The chief reason for this is
that all the German graves have
been surmounted by elaborate marble
or granite headstones, bearing prom
inently the iron cross and eulogistic
Inscriptions concerning the heroic
deaths of the invaders. There are
some thirty graves in all. and each
of them has over it a large stone,
except six, which have wooden
crosses.
The cemetery is the last resting
place of members Of the 18th Royal
Bavarian Infantry Regiment who
were killed during their occupation of
the St. Mihiel salient.

READY To TALK PEACE,
HUNS TELL austria
Germany Replies to Peace Note,
Admitting That Previous Efforts
Were Not Encouraging.

AMSTERDAM. September 2o.-An
Official statement issued in Berlin
says the German ambassador in
Vienna today presented Germany's
reply to the recent Austro-Hunga-
rian peace note. The German note
announces the readiness Of Germany
to participate in the proposed ex-
change of ideas.
The text of the German reply fol-
lows:
The undersigned imperial ambas-
sador has the honor to make the
following reply to the highly esteem
ed note of the royal and imperial
foreign minister:
THE summons Of the Austro-Hun-
garian government to all belligerent
states to enter into confidential un-
binding discussion in a neutral coun-
try Of the fundamental principles fol-
the conclusion OF peace corresponds
to the spirit Of peace readiness and
conciliatoriness which the RESPONSE
BILE statesmen of the quadruple alli-
ance and the authorized representa-.
tives of the allied (Teutonic) peo-
pies have again 3nd again announc-
ed. The reception which previous
similar steps met with from our
enemies was not encouraging,
THE imperial government, how
ever. follows the new attempt to
bring the world nearer to the Just
and lasting peace. which it desires
with the sincere and earnest wish
that the statement of the Austro-
Hungarian government, inspired by
profound conciliatory feeling and
noble humanity, will this time evoke
the desired echo.
"In the name Of the imperial gov
eminent the undersigned has the
honor to declare that Germany is
ready to participate in the proposed
exchange of IDEAS"
