The Boer war was "garden party"
In comparison to any phase Of the
present European conflict, according
to Sergeant Byrne.
Sergeant Byrne has seen seventeen
years Of active service in the British
army, and is now fighting for America
In the Aviation Section Signal Corps,
stationed at Kelly Field, South San An
tonic. He is the possessor OF the
"Queen's Medal" with five clasp,
which he won for distinguished con-
duct In the South American campaign.
In the war which is now convulsing
the world, Sergeant Byrne help stem
the tide Of the German march on Paris
In the first month of the conflict. He
Wa ct the battles of Mons, Merry, Ar
mentiers and the historic Marine; and
through oil this time he has never
been seriously wounded, although
hundreds Of his comrades who were
With him In the Second Dragon Guards,
known a. the "Queen's Bays" have
paid their price toward making the
world safe for Democracy.
"The Queens Bays" was . cavalry
regiment, and although still In ex.
istence ss an organized unit at the
front, the original regiment lie widely
scattered, many having been either
killed or wounded. Had 1t not been
for the action of the Ninth Lancers at
Merry In the early part Of the war, the
Germans would have annihilated the
original regiment. As it was, the reg.
iment was 80 split up in the mad rush
to defend Paris that its identity was

almost lost. The dragons were i'm
constant combat with the enemy and
it was all open fighting. Trench war
fare at that time was not practiced to
to any extent.
After the completion of his active
service on the French battlefront,
Sergeant Byrne was sent to Aldershot,
England. where he drilled the re-
cruits which were then known as
"Kitchner's Mob" He was discharged
from the British Army in November,
1915, and went back to his occupation
as steward in the trans Atlantic SER
vice. Soon after that he obtained q
position with the Remington Arms
Company in Eddystone, Pa, where he
was known as a shooter and spent con-
siderable time i'm testing out the ia
nous Enfield rifle, which he declares
to be the best weapon today. He was
at the EddystOne plant at the time of
the explosion which wrecked the
plant and killed nearly a score OF per-
sons.
In the South African campaign Ser
geant Byrne was a member of a sig
mailing detachment on General Roch-
forts staff.
Soon after arriving in Kelly Field,
which Is now the largest aviation
camp in the world, Byrne was ap-
pointed first sergeant of the 1O3rd
Aero Squadron. Later he was trans
ferred to the old 112th Squadron,
which is now the 633rd. He is now
awaiting an opportunity to enter the
ground school for an officers COM
mission.

the TASK TO WHICH We MUST NOW
DEDICATE OURSELVES

Germay has ceased to be land of
civilized human beings. 1t is merely
Q great fighting machine which, like
all other machinery, Is without con-
science or morals.
Germany knows no law except the
law OF might. 1t knows no other rea-
son for the existence of men and
women and children than to serve the
State as represented by its diabolical
militaristic element.
Therefore, Germany slaughters In
cold blood, with no more feeling or
conscience than q piece of machinery
would have in killing man who was
fed into its ruthless NAV.
The machinery has no conscience,
no moral force; but that does not les
sen its terrific power for evil to the
individual who runs contrary to its
appointed plan for grinding or crush
ing or cutting, or for any other work
for which It's builder created it. This
il the fighting machine which we now
face.
One year ago we declared war upon
Germany though Germany had openly
been making war upon us since the
summer of 1914.
One year ago we undertook to do
what we should have been aggres-
sively doing since August, 1914. We
planned for q great army, we prom
ised the Allies a great seroplane feet
and ships without number; but we are
only now rounding into shape these
things, which makes us most Grimm
ally to blame for the fearful losses in
the mighty struggle of the last ten
days.
Had we done our duty as q nation
and as individuals, Germany could
never have reached its present mighty
fighting strength.
Every man who fought prepared
ness, every pacifist who sold his soul
to the devil of Germany's propaganda,
has resting upon his head the fearful
blood outlines Of the men who are
dying that we and civilization may
live. Through the ages the stain of
blood cannot be washed out. 1t is
there forever.
Our nation failed to be ready, failed
to see its duty, because it preferred
It's ease. Let Us, therefore, with our
souls quickened by these truths, re-
double, yes, quadruple, our energy in
building war machine whRh will
outmstch Germsny's In proportion as
honor is better than dishonor, as NOR
atty is better than immortality, as civ
ilization is higher than bsrbarism, and
integrity OF life better than murder
and outrage.
That is our task, and to that issue
we must address ourselves with every
ounce of our strength of body and soul.
Let us begin the second year by
promptly subscribing the Liber-
ty Bonds and doing to the fullest what
we have been promising to the Allies
and to ourselves, and thus redeem
our honor and save our souls and the
soul Of the nation. Manufacturers

The Old Age of Waste is Past

Before the war we lived in an age
of careless waste. Raw materials
were abundant; free imports from
German factories compelled our own
manufacturers to cut prices down to
the lowest limit. The result was that
commodities were cheap, and, being
cheap, were squandered. We squan-
dered coal, petrol, paper, metals, tex
tiles, bread, meat, and other foods.
The famous saying of the mustard
manufacturer that his fortune was
made out of the mustard the people
wasted was true Of many other
things. The age Of waste has gone,
because the age of plenty has gone,
not to return in our generation. The
world food shortage will last much
longer than this war: the shortage
of metals and other raw materials
will see our time out. The recon-
struction of Europe's shattered cities,
the replacing of sunk shipping, and
the restoring of WORKOUT railway
lines, engines, carriages, and trucks
will have the first lien for many
years on metals, timber and many
other raw materials. There will be
little surplus to exc out for the prime
wants of civilization and no surplus
for waste.-London Daily Mail.

Endorsed the K. of c.

The late Cardinal Farley, arch
bishop of New York, in public utter
ances before his death declared in
favor of the United War Work CAM
paign and praised the seven big or
CARNATIONS which are striving to
maintain the morale of the American
soldiers. Here is his last letter to
the Knights of Columbus:
"The services rendered by the
Knights of Columbus to the national
government in this difficult crisis OF
our history have endeared it to ev-
cry American, and according to in
formation which l have been enabled
to gather have won for it the affec.
tionate esteem and gratitude of ths
men in Uniform.
"These activities which contribute
so much t. the splendid morale O.
our armed forces must not be alloweS
to languish for lack of proper sup
port. The order has large member
ship, but ii is by no means as com
prehensive as it deserves to be"

The House is Always Dry

An Earnest of the Nations Effort
The new draft will naturally work
hardship. Some men may have to
leave their families; they will like
wise have to leave what seem to be
essential occupations, but by exert
ing our maximum eGe<+ ct this time
we can achieve with the least sacri-
flee of material and men. The new
draft will encourage and enhearter
not only our allies but our own sol
diers who are fighting at the front
1t will be an earnest to them thai
we are going to make peace of vic
tory, and that we are not going tt
allow the war to dag along il
the hope that there will be a revo
luton in Germany or that some othe.
adventitious circumstance will conn
to our aid.-Chicago Tribune.

Sensations OF an kirplane
Man Detailed as to Thrills
Experienced at Dizzy Height

The trials for my military brevet
were far the most interesting thing I
have done in aviation. On finishing
the 6O-horse power Bleriot class, I was
told that would have to do my brevet
work on small Cauldron biplane, as
there were no Bleriots available, writes
NOrdhoff in Atlantic Monthly
Off she went with a roar, all ten CYL
Inders firing perfectly, so I motioned
the mechanic to pull out the blocks
from before the wheels. A quick rush
and turn headed me into the wind,
and the next moment the starters arm
shot forward.
Old 1887 is a bully bus. I was OFF
the ground and heading up in forty
yards. It was rather an occasion for
beginner who had never before flown
over $500 feet. The little Cauldrons, of
course, are not high-powered, but she
climbed splendidly. In ten minutes
was circling over the camps at $500
feet and in twenty had reached 5000,
just under the roof of the clouds. There
was only one blue hole through, so up
this funnel climbed in decreasing cir
cles, till I finally burst out into the
gorgeous upper sunlight.
At 5000 feet began to float about
In a world of utter celestial loneliness
dazzling pure sun, like the water of
coral atoll, and beneath me billowy
sea of clouds, stretching away to in
| fnity. Here and there, from the
cloudy prairies great fantastic noun
tain ranges reared themselves; foot
hills and long divides, vast snowy
peaks, impalpable sisters of Orizaba
or Chimborazo, and deep gorges, ever
narrowing, widening or deepening,
across whose shadowy depths drove
ribbons Of thin gray mist.
Once, as I was sailing over broad
canyon, l saw far off In the south a
dark moving dot and knew with sud-
den thrill that another man like my
self, astride his gaunt buzzing bird, was
exploring and marveling at this upper
dream world.

AS OF OLD

(From the Washington Starr
Now Sunday is day of rest,
When placid is each scene
That once beheld the busy quest
Of oil and gasoline.
No more blowout makes sound
Like fierce artillery fire,
And sends dear father to the grounC
To tinker up the tire.
No more the motor madly tolls,
No more we fear the cop,
No more the radiator boils,
And brings up to stop.
Now father sits in comfort vast,
His favorite page to read;
For Sunday has become at last
A day of rest indeed!

With the Turks being driven out
of Palestine under the British at
tacks, the Bulgarians crying for
peace after defeats from the Serbs,
and the Allies driving the Germans
back on the western front, the war
news certainly looks good these days.
These continued successes will slim
ulate subscriptions to the Fighting
Fourth and now is the best time tc
subscribe.
