Homing Pigeons Carried Messages from Airplanes, Ships and Trenches

WASHINGTON, D. Membership in the A. F. s. is a military honor no mere man may achieve.
 The A. P. $. stands for the Ameri- can Pigeon Service of the United States army.
 When the history of the greatest of all wars is written these American birds will have their names in the an- nals. It will be told how the Huns were organized into shotgun squads to kill the winged messengers, but how 9S per cent of them out-distanced the bullets and "homed' with messages that enabled American artillery to To- cate and silence the enemy guns, to destroy trains of the foes ammuni- ton and to save thousands of Ameri- can lives by achievements and timely rescues.
 s'Heavier -than-air'' planes were not the only ones who sailed above the enemy's heads. The Army Signal Corps had 10000 pigeons overseas and 10000 in America to be sent if they were needed. Birds carried 403 mes sa ges of incaIculabie importance, and at times when all other means of com munication were unavailable.
 Helps Silence Enemy
 '.The Mocker," with his eye de- stroyed by piece of shrapnel and his head a welter of clotted blood, komed in splendid time on the morn ing of September 12, a few minutes after o'clock, in a thick fog and heavy rain. Never faltering, he bore tidings of particularly important objective reached and gave the location of sev- eral of the enemys heavy batteries which were doing terrible execution on the advancing American troops. With the information American artillery men were able to silence the enemy's guns within 20 minutes. The Mocker's wounds were dressed, 1se recovered and iS now in the loft in Potomac Park here. The accompanying picture was taken on tn blind side. showing his disability is the loss of right eye.

 This country drinks near ly one-ha1f of all the Coffee grown in the world. And the American appetite for Golf fee is constantly growing.
 In the last six months of 1919 we Americans drank three billion more cups of coffee than we drank in the same period of 1918. This liking for coffee by Ameri- cans is easily understood.
