TRAVEL ACCORDING TO MAP
Thoroughly Mapped Out Before
Beginning Their Journey.

Before leaving on a l0ng-distance
night raid the airmen prepare their
maps with great care, marking on
them the detailed course from the air
drome TO their objective.
BY means of small balloon, whose
speed direction and height is recorded
by an instrument on the ground, the
force and direction of the wind at diff
ferent attitudes is discovered, and the
compass course, allowing for wind
drift, is marked beside the course on
the map. The compass course for the
return journey is also marked. The
speed of the machine is calculated, and
on the line of the course a series OF
points is marked, showing where the
machine should be every ten minutes
thus enabling the airman to check his
progress and to know his approximate
position if he gets lost.
He watches the country below for
landmarks. He sees by his map that
river should appear in a few min
utes. His watch shows that he has
been flying 40 minutes, and near the
45-minute mark on his map is twist
ed pale blue line. He looks ahead
and sees i'm the moonlight silver
streak and he knows he is making good
time. When he is over the river he
compares it's outline with his map,
and sees that he is crossing it at the
right place.

Lives Saved by Steel Helmet.

The British soldier, happy-go-lucky
as he is, has come to recognize the
value of his steel helmet. Most of us
who have been In action in France
have stories to tell Of our own or 9TH
er mems lives saved by "tin hats" 'etin
Ids" or battle bowlers." A brother
officer of mine has worn for something
like two years a steel helmet with a
dent in it as big as q small potato-a
souvenir OF q small lump Of she'll
which knocked him of his feet one
afternoon in the Ypres salient. have
seen a helmet in the rim of which a
machine gun bullet had cut clean
nick. The wearer of that helmet new
er knew he had been struck until he
dotted his ''tin hat."-LOnd0n Times.

such note would have to pay about

Waiter McNeal, pisool, $50 and costs.
Lucille Hill. pistol dismissed on pay
ment Of costs.
In the opinion of those looking on It
appears that this term made q revela-
ton to some of the law violators of the
county and showed them that there are
Judge and attorney general right on
the job to see that the right thing is
done, not to Cypress but to do justice
to the offender. A larger per cent of
convictions was secured in the criminal
cases before the court than has been
the case for some time, and with Sher-
if Ross active as has been in hunting
out the offenders and bringing them in.
to court, there seems better days for
this city and county in the proper pros
ecutions of those guilty of violating the
law.

that there 10 a special law which applies
to this county Onl which makes 1t o
misdemesnor for any owner Of stock to
let them run at large. The grand jury
can indict every stock owner who vio-
lates this law and there 10 little doubt
Of what the present judge and attorney

brought. Complaint has been made
thai Justices Of the Peace would not
enforce this law, but whether that be
true or not, no one DOUBTS that II the
matter is brought before the circuit

enforcement Of the law. Many q citi.
