r1xINc MACHINES MAY END IT.

The statement will suit Americans. 1t is made by
w. J. Workman representative in America Of the Hand
ley-Pake Airplane company.
Mr.. Victor Lawson in his Daily News, quotes Mr..
Workman seriously
We can make enough arpanes in this country by April
1919 to defeat the Germans within thirty to sixty days,
II we start now and every of these machines can be
eivered to France under its power carrying with
Il it fun military load of bombs, guns and men, without
single ton or cubic foot of shipping space being used
we make up our mind to do it, and go at it. we can
accomplish it.
This man, who is expert, not dreamer, says the
machines would fly to Europe from Newfoundland to the
Azores then landing at Portugal and going thence to
France.
There is no doubt that if the war lasts another year
and a half the flying machine will end il.
There could be nothing pleasant than to behold
bs submarine commander lying prOne on his back" as
Mr. B |. Taylor would say, looking up from the deck
az his idle boat to the hocs Of American machines going
over to kin his relatives and calm the kaiser.

OVER THERE.


There's a little while cross on little
green hill
In land that / have never seen
The country around it is peaceful
and still,
The landscape is soft and serene.
You never could tell that the brook
in the glen
Which babbles and purls on its way
Ran red with the blood of the army
of men
Sleeping under the crosses today.
There's a little white cross, but it is
not alone,
There are thousands its vigil to
share;
No monument high and no rich carv-
en- stone
Marks of the graves of the boys
"Over there"
But the bright, cheerful sun through
the dancing leaves peeps,
And lovingly touches the sward,
Caressing the spot where my soldier
boy sleeps.
With the little white cross keeping
guard.
Oh, those crosses of white, what a
tale they unfold
Of homes that are lonely and
bleak!
Not half of the story will ever be
But if the white crosses could
speak
They would shout to the sky-not a
paean of woe,
But song of triumphant refrain
From the million brave hearts who
had courage to go
And whose lives were not offered in
vain!
The little white crosses are every
where set
In land that is smiling and fair;
And the people who love it will never
forget
To mention them often in prayer.
Our hearts may be empty and ready
to break,
But they stand in a God given
Light
Our owed ones, who died for HUI
manity's sake,
Sleeping under the crosses of
white.

WHAT CAUSES A TOWN TO DIE.

More towns die for want of confidence on the part Of
business men and lack of public spirit than from the
rivalry of neighboring towns adverse surroundings,
says writer in western paper. This is true When
man in search of home business location goes to
town and finds brmfu of hope and enthusiasm the
prospects of the place and earnestly at work to build
up the town, he soon becomes mbued with the same
spirit and as result he drives his stakes and goes to
work with the same interest When, however, he goes to
town and every expresses doubt and apprehen-
sion of the prosperity of the place. moving about and
ndulgng in mournfu complaints about imaginary evils
which are likely befa the town. he feels that it is
place for him. and shakes the dust from his feet while
ne departs with all possible speed for some other town
Try and make live enterprsing progressive town out
Of the one in which you live. When you are working
for or saying good thing for your town you accom-
plishing good thing for yourself.
