going on long flight to bomb German
towns, it is very desirable to know
what weather may be expected.
By means of a little balloon whose
speed and direction, as it scars up
ward, is registered by a special instru-
ment the direction and force of the
wind at different levels is discovered
This information tells the airman
what course he must steer and what
allowances he must make for defec-
ton and winddrift.
The pilots and observers are called
into the mapping office and the orders
for the night are read aloud by the
commanding officer. Maps are col
lected, and photographs of the objec-
tive are examined. so that the airmen
may familiarize themselves with the
surroundings as they appear from the
air
Then they hurry away to their
rooms and get ready for the long
flight through the cold night skies.

soft leather thigh boots lined with
white fleece are pulled on over thick

Then, gathering up their thick fur

Iowa people to the way in which Cana
dams are supporting their soldiers

duction in the consumption of beef,

Canada this season has set upon n
self the task of producing 100000 900
bushels Of wheat instead Of the 225-
100000 bushels grown In l917. A
campaign is now on for the production
of more spring wheat and pleas are
being made that every farmer shall
raise at least Eve acres more than In
former years. In Quebec the e1pecta-
ton is an increase in the grain pro-
fuction Of at least 100000 acres
through this plan. In Manitoba the
acreage is being greatly increased with
the expectation that the crop this year
win reach 100000 bushels.

There are thrills a-plenty in this

A girl of the circus is sent to board
ing school. where she is snubbed by
the other girls because of her former
associations. When she saves some
girls from a dangerous situation she
is taken to the home of young man
who witnessed her bravery The
mother of the young man also holds
aloof from the girl when she, too, dis
covers her taking the place of a lion
tanner and learns of her circus life.
The young man stands by the girl

The Americans now dominate it COM
pleteiy.
Chateau Thierry'B own safety is
seriously menaced by the American
advance. The Germans positions at
Vaux were exceptionally strong, be-
cause Vaux guards the main highway
running into Chateau Thierry from
the west. The Americans now control
the road The capture Of Fill 294,
which apparently has been made by
united Franco-American forces, doubly
assures the safety of the Americans
on the Vanx road. Hill 204 is midway
between Vaux and Chateau sThierry,
dominating the Vaux road from the
southern flank
There are no remaining strongho4ds
protecting Chateau Thierry from the
west The defense OF Chateau Thierry
henceforth must occur within the i'm
mediate environs OF the town itself
The town may fall to the Americans
at the next assault.
The new American exploit inspires
confidence in the effectiveness Of the
American system OF training The
method Of assigning in advance to
each man his post in the town to be
captured, and of Identifying that post
ny PeTSOiISil IudpS anu photographs,
marks a new advance in the technique
of offensive fighting. The cautious
discovery of enemy machine gun
nests. and their determination by ar
tllery fire, demonstrates that the
Americans are not throwing away
their lives by the reckless, impetuous
assaults of amateur soldiers, but are
fighting in accord with the most re-
Gently applied scientific principles.
Only by such carefully devised and
patient methods can the casualties of
offensive operation be kept to mini
mum. There is every reason to be
satisfied, therefore, with what the
Americans have done, not SO much be-
cause OF the Importance of the accom-
plishment itself, but because Of the
promise it holds out.
The Americans are showing the
craftness of veterans, combined with
the battlefield energy and efficiency
OF natural warriors. With that spirit
developing SO early in Americas new
armies, the allies may well be conf
dent OF final victory.

Pershing Confirms Victory
WASHINGTON, July 2.-Brief mes
sages from General Pershing today
confirmed United Press information
of the valiant work of Americans in
the Chateau Thierry region last night
Officers in touch with the fituation
we're elated at the success of the Uni
ted States forces. Careful planning,
backed by clean cut belligerent &C
ton, was responsible for the victory
it was held.
The cooperation among the artil-
lery, infantry and intelligenc branch
es was deemed especially good.
Great work" was the verdict on
every hand. Officers said that it sup
ported strongly the recent actions in
the neighborhood where Americans
have struck terror into the German
ranks.
Today's action improves the allied
lines in that region and it is likely it
viii be followed up by further actions
to straishten out the line and to push
the Boche from his positions.
F'och is now nibbling at the enemy
forces on all the battle fronts.
Pursuing his recently expressed be
lief that no war was ever won by
purely defensive fighting, the allied
Generalissino has directed battling
thrusts at the teutons almost contin-
uously for many days now. tending to
throw the German plan of concerted
offensive into confusion.
