AIRSHIPS TAKE THE PLACE
OF MINE-SWEEPING SHIPS
Correspondence. of the Associated Press.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
LONDON. April 2s.-Sweeping up
the thousands of mines which strew
the seas in tire neighborhood Of the
British Isles has proved such q 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 tire
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 advan-
tage of height in locating mines, the
mere fact that an airship cannot hit
mine adds so much to the element
of safety that it is expected that much
of the 5000 square miles Of mine
strewn waters which remain will be
cleared without loss OF life.

Shortly after the armistice the usual
donation for the year was received
by Mrs. Lane. but the cessation of
hostilities made its use for hospital
purposes unnecessary. Mrs. Lane
asked the Fairbanks people what she
told. with true western breeziness. to
use it in any way she saw, fit to help
American soldiers.
Mrs. Lane has been for some time
in charge of the soldiers conva-
lescent home maintained out near
ment, Of which her husband is the
head. and from her own experience
she decided that nourishing yet deli
cate food for very sick men offered
the best channel in which to expend
the money.
Aided by Mrs. Henry r. Rea. field
director Of the department Of military
relief, Potomac division of the Red
Cross. she succeeded in installing the
desired service about two weeks ago.
The number of patients served the
first day was 1873, and this has mount
