Six Miles Up. Oxygen Clogged

The feet accomplished in n British two

and British built engine. 1t left the ground in
a thirty-fve mile wind.
At 10000 feet there was 3lis degrees OF frost.

The highest altitude hitherto recorded Tor

1916 by an Italian pilot. who took hour and
81 m.nues. or nearly doubl- the time taken
by Captain Lang. The new record Is addt-

Some Remarkable Workings of

during the period of the war was made re-
Gently by John Lord o. Brian. who was closely
associated throughout those busy months with
Attorney General Gregory as special as
slstant in the War Emergency Division OF the
Department OF Justice.
.cnn Liberty in War Time was the topic
OF a naper read by Mr.. oBrian at the recent
annual meeting in this city of the New York
State Bar Association. In that paper Airs
o'Rrian said;-"with the perspective OF years
no achievement OF the Americans in the war
will loom larger or more significant than the
triumph OF the American civil law. the lack of
Internal disorder and the law respecting atti-
tude observed throughout the country by both
citizen and alien alike No other nation came
through the struggle with little disorder
and with SO little interference with the civil
liberty OF the Individual.
This country prior to our entry into the war
had almost no protection the statute books
against hostile activities and throughout
great part OF our own period of the war had
inadequate protection against the activities OF
hostile propa pasandIsts. The confidence of the
public which is at all times essential for the
orderly administration of justice. was seriously
affected BY ihis condition of the statute law.

 She went near the shore to see if ihe light coGId be seen. hut no sign could she see of her dear papas schooner
 Then Helen and her mother, fearing that he had been lost at sea, praNad many hours for his return. but he did not come that night. and t seemed to poor Helen and her mother, that they would never see him again.
 At last the morning came. a beauti- full sun shona out upon the water and the fshermars schooner and crew came safely to harboT. The fisher man losing TO time, rushed to his home, and caressing his wife and daughter. told how he had rescued an- other crew that was drifting near the rc cks.

 Beth hurried home and told her mother.
 Her mother felt sad because she knew they couldn't afford to let Beth buy the Thrift stamps. Beth felt sad, too.
 One day Beth thought of a plan. She whispered it to her mother. and her mother thought it a very good plan. She whispered it to her teacher, and her teacher thought it a good plan.

MarYs Eather'.; Dalav.

One wild night in March many years ago, a girl sat in q f5sherman's $ cottage, awaiting the return of her father. who was away ia his boat. He had set off soon after supper, and it was now six o'clock in the morning. Ec had always been back about five o'clock and Mary was now feeling anxious to lnow what the cause of the delay was.
 The hours passed by like a night rare, buc there were no signs of her fathers return yet.
 The storm was still raging and Mary was getting more afraid.
 Her father was helping some people whose ship had been destroyed during the storm.
 By and by Marys father canie, and Mary told him that she had thought he had been drowned, and. Oh! such horrible things. But she said, 1 am glad yo1 saved these people!
 The people were very wealthy and they would ror go until they had giv- on him something for saving them They each gave him soEsthing, and al. together, this amounted to two hundred and fifty dollars.

A Peep at the Menanerie.


 Of course you have seen a menag- erie, where they have so many wild animals in cages?
 Did you ever think that the great shaggy lion, with his eyes shut. might be dreaming of good old times when he and his mate and cunning little cubs were SC happy, hidden snugly away in the tall grass? Or he may. perhaps, have been thinking how nice it was to eat those pretty giraffes which he used to hunJ and sudden ly spring upon from behind some bush or tree.
 Now the cid fellow does not have t0 find his own dinner, for it is brought to him every day. Twice a day he has ali he wants to eat. When ne is done eating he lIclls his chops, yawns once of twice, and then goes to sleep. perhaps to forget that he is shut up in a cage far away from his native land.
 He sleeps a great deal of the time. and so I don't think he can be so very unhappy. Do you?
 The lion in his own home does not very often hurt anyone unless he is hungry, or hunUeds When he is very hungry he shakes his mane and whips his sides with his tail. When he does this it is dangerous to1be near him. The giraffe, the animal which the lion is fond of hunting, is the tallest animal in the world. Is it not strange he is also one of the most gentle-as gentle as a kitten.
 He lives on grass and hay, and his | neck is so long that when he is fed his | dinner is placed in box or pail which | has to be put much higher up in his | cage, or stall. than a mans head, SC | that he can get and eat it easily. l HELEN BATES. i PlainfiPld

 The lady did not want him to go be- cause he might be killed; but he did not want to be a stacker.
 Jim had a drum which was given him for his birthday. He was very proud of it because he knew how to play very we'll When he came with the army to fight the British they went back to their fort so as not to get killed.
