 Flying is play compared to the thrill you get when you are out of sight of land and nothing in sight and you just drifting around with nothing to do except to sit still and hope you are not swamped. Of course we would have gotten out all o. K, for we had life preservers, but sure would have been long wait, and especially wet one for us. A little experience like that helps to break the monotony when you are doing nothing but flying around the bay and loafing around the camp.
 have been recommended for commission and have been awarded my "wings." So I am now full fledged Naval Aviator. It will be s or 8 weeks before get my commis- sion though, and believe my story, you sure earn your commission when you get one in the navy.
 Tomorrow is Labor Day and we will rate holiday. A holiday means a lot to us, as we only rate liberty from to 11:30 p. m. on Saturday, and from 8 a. m. to 11:30 p. m. on Sunday. However we worked today (Sunday) from 4:30 a. m. to noon, flying and overhauling planes. It is the first Sunday we have worked though.
 How is the old "Home Town" and all the people? Same good old town I guess. I will feel like bird out of cage when 1 am given my fur tough. I didn't appreciate good time before I enlisted, but sure will know what it means when get out of the service. I sure was lucky to get in this branch of the service, for it is absolutely the cream of it. Must close. Love to all and best regards to all of my friends.
 Your son,
 Duffer Ballew.

~ days have been prescribed S00
cases Of whisky, through the courteS,,
OF Criminal Court Judge J. D. r Dc,
BOW and by the official request of 70
health. u
When the jurist heard the plea of
medical skill that whisky was abso-
Iutely essential in the treatment of
influenza, he agreed that HOSPITALS
should be supplied from the immense
stock of liquors captured by police
and country constabulary in bootleg
raids.
Up to noon today 10000 persons af-
fiicted with the disease, had been
given $500 quarts of whisky. This
amounts to 2,400 gallons or nearly so
barrels.
On the local bootleg curb, the finan.
! cial value of this amount of whisky
would aggregate $4,000. Its value
on the legitimate market in Louisville
| today, would be in excess of s1OS,OOO.
From o'clock in the morning until
late in the afternoon, hundreds of
| persons have stood in line for two
hours at time, waiting to present a
physicians prescription and receive
their quota of Flu Juice" Some
times this line fronting the central
police Station extended more thar
100 feet.
Doctors Praise DeBow,
There's only the mite left for neces.
sary evidence WAR bootleggers
come to trial This must be held by
the officials to insure conviction.
4 But Judge DeBow's action in thi!
matter, physicians today assert, ha!
been an important factor in checking
the epidemic and holding down the
mortality rate in Davidson county
The use OF this whisky in influenza
cases, according to medical science
here, has been absolutely necessary

THE FIGHTING MASCOT
PREFERS A CHARGE
TO BEING SHIELDED

The German artillery opened up
on us, and in all the time we had
been at the front we never had hal
such a dose from the big guns as
we got then.
Lie down and duck your heads
when you hear a shell coming" an
officer sung out to us just after the
first one had struck close by, says
Tommy Kehoe, the youngest British
veteran, in Boys Life for November.
The next minute we heard another
one on the way, and we all went down
on our knees or our stomachs. We
put our hands over our eyes so that
we should not be blinded If flying
splinters came our way, and waited
for the explosion. The thing burst a
few yards off and spattered US with
dirt.
Then a shrapnel shell burst just
over us, SO close that I felt the heat
of it, I thought 1 WIS done for that
time, and it surprised me when
found I was all right. Other poor
chaps weren't so lucky, for every lit
tie while 1 heard a cry for stretcher-
| bearers.
l L
err stop. There's nothing worse than
heavy shell fire. the awful noise of
| it, the flying splinters and the think
| ing that every passing minute may be
your last I'd have gone through No
Mans Land twice over if I had had
my choice, rather, than spend five
minutes in a trench where the shells
were flying. The waiting for each
shell to burst and the shock from
| the crash of them gets on a lads
nerves till he shakes all over.
For two hours the Smelling lasted,
and then of a sudden stopped. We
got up and stretched ourselves, and
we all looked as if we hadn't slept
for a week-all of US that were left,
| for the stretcher-bearers had been
busy and there was many face I
missed. For a long time my head
buzzed from the noise of the shells
and every nerve in my body tinged.

THE GREAT A11ERICAN ARMY

ny hem ali the difficulties ON both sides
are duly considered it is fairly certain
that the military historians OF the IN
tnre win give America far greater
credit for rushing the first million
troops to France, at this unparalleled
war crisis, than to the German leaders
for the magnitude Of their eoneentra-
tion of men and materials on the west
front. No such feat of transportation
has ever before been regarded as possi-
BILE. And it is the more remarkable IN
view Of the fact that America was at
the same time relied upon by Europe
for such vast quantities Of food and OF
military materials 1t wouid require
volume of thousand pages to tell IN
any detail the story of this transfer OF
Americans to Europe--men and boys
who year ago for the most part were
quite ignorant of military matters anh
were scattered across this peaceful con
tinent, engaged in many pursuits, or III
none, and living in every town and
county of our forty-eight states. Nor
are they merely an assembla2e OF hn-
man material in uniforms mob OF
homesick youths without discipline or
technical requirements. Their average
physical quality is exceptionally good
their initiative and morale are probably
equal TO those Of any other like number
of men in any army; and their d,sei-
pine and technical training are amaz-
ingIy complete for a body of soldiery
that has as yet had so little experience
under fire. The process of sssociating
