HOW McGILL DID IT

McGill chapter entered the second

With enthusiasm and full of con-
fidence that she would easily exceed
her quota of $4,000. That this con-
tldence was fully justified Is proven
by the following simple statement OF
wonderful achievement. This is
how she did It.

LONDON, May 25.-The German
artillery was increasingly active last
night on the westerly side OF the
Lys saliant in Flanders In the neigh
borhood of Strazeele, the war office
announced today. The district of
Bethune was again subjected to gas
bombardment. The British captured
numerous prisoners and two machine
guns in raiding operations.
No signs are observable, accord
ing TO correspondents at the front. of
the delivery of his expected stroke.
The artillery activity indeed seems
less marked than for some days past.
while the aviators have been Obliged
to let down In their intense fabors
by the advent of less favorable
weather
1t seems not impossible, however,
that the magnificent work OF the al
lied airmen has had much to do with
the slowness of the enemy in putting
his offensive machine in working or

themselves as master of the situa-
tion to such an extent that the Ger
mans have been forced for the most
part to keep we'll back of their own
lines.

The work OF constructing in the
North Meadows of Central Park a

France, as part of the campaign for the
third Liberty Loan, will start to-mo~-

Assurances have been given by the
Liberty Loan Committee that the
Meadows Will be restored to their pres

Loan drive is over At the same tirae
the committee announced that the same
idea would be employed in other cities

Central Park to Aid

Circle Over Wall Street
w. S. S. Bombs Dropped on
Financial Section to
Boom Campaign

Just about the time the cables
brought word of the bombardment of
Paris, friendly airmen appeared over
New York City yesterday afternoon
and bombed the metropolis with fold
ers and pamphlets calculated to boom
the sale Of war savings stamps.
Two airplanes, of new Curtiss type,
took part in the raid Their coming
did not take the city by surprise. 1t
had been arranged by the Mayors
Committee Of Women on National De
fence and had been we'll advertised.
Circle Over Wall Street
The planes came here from the
training station at Mlneola. One ma
chine was driven by Lieutenant Roy z.
Ludick. Behind him in the observers
seat rode Sergeant Oliver Young. The
other plane was driven by Pilot Henry
S. Smith. He was accompanied by NJ.
II. Goodenough, inspector of engines at
the Mneola station.
Both planes reached the city at about
2 o'clock. They circled over the fnan-
cial section in Wall Street and dropped
w. S. S. bombs into the narrow streets.
Then they flew back toward Governors
Island and crcled around the buildings
there. Lieutenant Ludick led the way
back toward the city. Pilot Smith
headed for Central Park and his flying
mate delayed long enough to circle
around the tower Of the Woolworth
Building.
Both aviators landed in the sheen
pasture at the park. Here a delesa-
ton of women from the Mayors com
mittee were on hand to greet them.
Postmaster Patten was on the scene.

Daylight Plan May Not
Affect Easter Services
Churches Urged to Open at
Same Hour by Sun
Time

Or. Walter Laidlaw, executive sec
rotary Of the New York Federation of
Churches, yesterday sent out letters
to the four hundred churches of the
organization suggesting that Easter
morning services be held an hour later
than usual, under the daylight saving
plan, which goes into effect at o'clock
next Sunday morning.
II Dr. Laidlaw's suggestion is
adopted, the churches of New York
City VIII hold morning Easter services
at the same hour by sun time as they
have IN the past, although by the new
othclal time the services will be an
hour behind schedule. Dr. LaidIaw said
he was moved TO offer his suggestion
ny the fact that thousands of persons
who VIII so to sleep Saturday night
under the old standard time would lose
an hours sleep if they had to get 10
morning service an hour earlier than
usual. Another reason, he said, was
tnat many persons would not get their
clocks and watches set according to the
new standard time till some time
Sunday
Il believe it would, therefore, be best
TO announce all services up to noon Of
Easter Sunday an hour later than usual
and all afternoon and evening services
at the usual hour, but under the new
time schedule" said Dr. Laidlaw.
My suggestion is q practical COM
promise. II services ordinarily held at
o'clock a. m. be held at o'clock Eas-
ter morninr and services ordinarily
held at II o'clock be held at ~ o'clock
noon no actual time would be lost, and
the adjustment to the daylight saving
law could be made in the afternoon. >"

I'VE are met hero to-day in pathetic
spirit OF protest against the offender.
The Military Mission comes from the
battlehelds Of France to take care Of
our Polish volunteers. to help them

Tor the ideals of democracy-the ideals
which for hundreds OF years have been
the ideals Of Poland ITSELF
1t was on that note that Major Koz-

army to ligh5 70 the end.
The spirit that animates Poland to-
day" declared Prince Poniatowski, "is
the same spirit that animated France

seen Americans fighting in France and
all have to say is that if they fight

In the evening a dinner was given
to the mission at the Hotel McAlpin.

topic of interest.
To-day there are $4,000 men in the

Eighteen thousand of these have been
recruited in this country Eight thou
sand more are now in training at
Niagara on the Lakes. The object of
the present mission is to raise this
total to S000O-the number necessary
to give the Polish forces the status
necessary to an autonomous army. and
last night, again and again, confidence
was expressed that this object would
be obtained.
The speakers at the dinner included

his country; James Martin, who spoke
for the French Embassy; Colonel +.

OF course, all this, which occurred yes

British Evangelist Decorat-
ed by King Before Sail
ing for America
Religion in Trenches
Facing Death Makes Soldiers
More Reverert, Says
Lecturer

Britain's great evangelist, Gypsy
Smith, clad in khaki, has just arrived
in America with message Of good
will from England After fortnight
in New York he Will spend three
months on d lecture tour OF the t-aitcd
States, under the auspices OF the Brit
ish Y. NJ. c. A.
Just before he sailed for the United
States he was decorated by King
George for conspicuous service during
the war, and made a member of the
Order of the British Empire.
W. Gordon Sprigg, who accompanied
the evangelist to organize his tour Of
America, said the King had personally
thanked MIR. Smith for the splendid
services rendered British troops on the
firing line and for his remarkably sue
cessful efforts In bringing to English
audiences the story of conditions at the
front.
Il have story to tell that l consider
greater than any message | have had
before" the evangelist said yesterday
at the home of Mrs. Solomon, 2l5 West
Ninety-tirst Street, where he was rest
ing after his voyage.
Under Shell Fire for Months
"For months | have lived under shell
fire at the front in order to be able to
reach our boys who are facing death.
They listen eagerly to what | have to

such conditions"

"No, | believe not" he said. Rather
than that new religion is developing
I would say there is greater rever-
ence and keener appreciation of the
old"
He found on the front no doubt of
ultimate victory for the Allied cause.

express themselves. "But what of that
if the race is secure ?"
Heroism and self-sacrifce such as
abound at the front do not of them
selves gain eternal peace for the dying
soldier, Gypsy Smith believes.
"But in response to the cry of the
heart face to face with eternal realities
salvation does come" he said, land the
