In addition to the museum which

another feature. According to the

the English language and in the prin-
ciples of American institutions, a
better understanding between France
and America. These young men who
will eventually go out into the world
and become figures in France a few
years hence will have much to do, 1t
is believed. in bringing France and
America even closer together than
they are today.

LONDON. July 13.-British airmen
continue to show their superiority
over the Germans. After their record
Of last week. when they accounted for
21s enemy machines against 56 of
their own and dropped 252 tons of
bombs ON German communications
and depots, they made this week four
teen separate raids into German ter
ritory. their objectives chosen being
of vital military Importance.
It is known that formidable squad
rons have been detailed for the pur-
pose of defense. Yet from thirteen of
these fourteen raids the British
formations returned without the loss
Of a single machine. In the other
raid two British machines were re-
ported missing, while four German

Practically all the pilots in this

little or no previous experience. In
the course Of that month they van

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 13.-In one year on
the British western front the royal air
force has accounted for 3,233 enemy
airplanes. In the same period the ma
val airmen shot down 623, a total Of
1856.
An onicial statement dealing with
these operations says:
"The royal air force during the
year beginning July 1. 1917. on the
British western front, destroyed 2.150
hostile machines. and drove down, out
Of control, 1.0S3. In the same period
the air force units, working in con-
junction with the navy. shot down 62a
hostile machines.
During this period 1904 Of our ma
chimes were missing, % of these were
working with the navy.
On Italian Front.
"On the Italian front, from April to
June. 1913. the British destroyed 165
hostile machines and drove down six
out Of c--.rol Thirteen of ours were
missing.
ION the saloniki front. between Jam
uary and June. twenty-one hostile
machines were destroyed and thirteen
were driven down out Of control Four
Of ours were lost.
From March to June in Egypt and
Palestine twenty-six hostile airplsnes
were destroyed and fifteen were driven
down out of control. Ten Of ours
were missing.
I'm all the theaters of the war the
British air superiority and strength
progressed rapidly and continuously.
From this 1t is safe to assume that
when the new factor Of Americas out
