HEIDER HELPED IN
RESCUING WOUNDED

Harold Heider, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. George W. Heider, 1902 Fiji
teenth street, Moline, helped 1913
soldiers aboard their ship, out of
the 1900 wounded boys who were
aboard the transport Northern Pa
cific which went aground at Fire
Island in New York harbor, a week
ago.
In a letter to his parents, young
Heider says: 1T required careful
maneuvering to get the wounded
off the ship, as the swells were
large and after quite a bit of hard
work we got 1913 soldiers aboard
our ship. Some of them had only
one arm and some were on cruteh-
es, but they sure had the sand
They were some happy bunch when
they were on dry land again"

SAYS AERO FLIGHT
ACROSS ATLANTIC
Is NOW POSSIBLE

London, Jan. 14.-Gen- BranckeT.
who is giving up his post as master
general of personnel in the air
ministry to devote his time to com
mercial aviation, in an interview
with the Daily Express today, as
serted that a flight across the At
lantic probably would be accom-
plished in May He added that the
trip was feasible at the present
moment, as there were three or
four types of airplanes available
which are capable of making the
flight
The newspaper says a regular
airship mail service between Eng
land and the United States during
the summer of 1920 is regarded as
certain by airship builders.
General Brancker said the time
was not far distant when airplanes
would be owned and driven as au-
tCmobiles are today. He said it
probably would be necessary to es-
tablish an aerial police force, the
duty of which would be to watch
over air routes and frontiers.
The Evening News today SAYS
that it has been officially informed
that the British admiralty is en-
barking on a big program of air
ship construction. Airships are be-
ing built with a gas capacity of O.
500 10000 cubic feet. The air craft
will have a large lifting capacity
and will be able to make between
sixty and seventy miles an hour
They will carry crews of twenty
five men.
Still larger airships are project
ed. Several airships which will
equal the largest Zeppelins in size
and capacity, and which are of d
similar rigid type, are being built.
Primarily they are being construct
ed for sea work and general OBJ
servation duty for the navy. These
airships. it is said, will be capable
of remaining in the air for a week.

WAR.


He did not care if he never returned
Back to the world that he knew.
He left it, a youth with a shrivelled
soul,
And his heart-it was not true.
But there on Flanders blood-red fields
Where men are broken or made,
He left the battles of flesh and soul
While he had red blood to wade.
He swallowed the acid test of fear
That ranked up in his throat,
And fought the one great fight of man,
And crossed, with God, the moat.
Yes, crossed the moat and won his
fight,
And went through the purging
And a man like the pure white lilies
afoat
Sprang from out of the mire.
He did not know and could not see,
But war has opened his eyes;
1t showed him the road to Heaven or
He'll,
And how brave man dies.
Yes, how he dies and how he lives,
And should fight the battles of
peace.
So now it matters if he never returns
When this wild turmoil shall cease.

This superior wall coating, SO
economical, so easy to apply,
has become national vogue, and
now, as never before, it is man
datory that all interior walls be
made sanitary, clean and beauti-.

the walls as sanitary as they are
beautiful.
Alabastine can be used for all
interior, surfaces-over plaster,

burlap or canvas-even over old
wall paper where it is fast to
the wall and contains no aniline
dyes or raised figures.
