Americas Girl
Scars Above City;
Sells Many Bonds

Americas people who saw the sew
eral airplanes soaring above the city
this morning little knew that one of
Sumter cOuntys talrest young women,
Miss Ruth Hodges, who resides near
the city, was a passenger in one of
the planes. Lieut.. Walter F. Suffer,
adjutant at the post, polited the plane
in which Miss Hodges rode and at
its conclusion the young lady express
ed herself as Dee-lighted
Miss Hodges was permitted TO take
the flight, which was of twenty min
utes' duration in compliance with
authority from General Menoher, chief
of air service to give to the man or
woman selling the most Vivtory bonds
and the man or woman buying the
most bonds a ride as a pas9an ger in
a governm Ut airplane. Miss Hodges
is the daughter of Mr.. A. F. Hodges,
a well known plantation owner ad-
joining Americas.
Lieut. Walter F. Suffer piloted the
ship and after seeing that Miss Hodg-
es had signed the government release
card and was firmly strapped into
her seat with instruction tc keep lfr
hands and feet away from the con-
trolls, the ship left the ground.
During the twenty minutes Miss
Hodges was given all the thrills of
aviation including loops, spins and
rolls, upon reaching the ground her
first exclamation was, Lets don't
stop l am feeling fine" She then
explained that she was SO interested
in trying to see everything below her
at once that she didn't remember see
ing anything but lot of sky She said
the feeling was what she imagined a
person felt on taking an opiate, SO
soothing and satisfying.
Miss Hodges is the first woman to
have ever made flight from Souther
Field.

PLANES HELP BRITISH
 IN SWEEPING MINES

LONDON, May 15.-Sweeping up the thousands of mines which strew the seas in the neighborhood of the British Isles has proved such a costly and dangerous job when carried on by the ordinary methods, that the ad- miralty has turned to the airship for relief. Experiments conducted in the North Sea, it is announced, have been successful, mines being located and exploded much quicker than when the usual mine-sweeping ship is used.
 While the airship has the advant- age of height in locating mines, the mere fact that an airship cannot hit a mine adds so much to the element of safety that it is expected Chat much of the 5000 square miles of mine strewn waters which remain will be cleared without loss of life.
