Their Industry Won Admiration
 Of Little English Village

Brough, England, Sept. 5.-This quaint Yorkshire village by the river Humber, proud of Its iong history, is no less proud of the distinction which the American 1.-the. world aviators conferred upon 1t.
 Brough was old when Caesars le- gtons annexed Britain to the Roman Empire. The visit of Lieutenant Smith and his five gallant compan- ions lifted this quiet hamlet out of It's long past and humdrum present to a place of world importance. For 1t was selected by the American airemen as the base where they overhauled their machines and made final preparations for the last leg of their transatlantic flight home. Great was the rejoicing of the townsfolk when the six Ameri- can fliers alighted here.
 The welcome of the inhabitants was genuine and sincere and within 24 hours they had taken the visitors to their hearts and homes. The Blackburn Aeroplane works placed their factory and staff at the full dis pqsai of the Americans, who were

My judgment however, was rein forced by the fact that General Pershing had been in command of the punitive expedition in Msxico, with which had been in daily con tact by telegraph, over long period of time.
 The punitive expedition, in Mexi- co had 8 most difficult and responsi- ble task and its leader was required to exercise tact, self-restraint and consideration for the rights of the Mexican people in very high de- gree. The desire of the president with regard to that expedition were explicit and positive, and the limi- tations imposed on General Persh- ng's freedom as military comman- der were dictated by considerations of public policy rather than military expediency. General Pershing met all the requirements with splendid ability and loyalty to the wishes of the president as commander in chief.
 Further. the (Mexican) expedi- tionary forces under General Persh- ing was the largest body of troops in active service which any Ameri- can general tthen on the active list) had commanded.
 "After I had made my selection l submitted it to the criticism of Gen. erai Scott, who approved it. l then carried it to President Wilson, dis cused it with him briefly, told him how I had arrived at it. and 1t met with his approval. at once tele- graphed General Pershing in code to report to rfe at Washington, which he did.

 It was the industry of the Amer jeans. their willingness to do any hard work in connection with the overhauling of their planes. that won the admiration of the Brough people. The village folk stood by to watch the Americans at their work. and first acquaintance ripened at once into mutual friendship.
 The Americans had 50 much to do that they found little time to meet the villagers outside the airplane works. Nevertheless, at the little village inn in Brough. the publican and his daughter have priceless sou venirs of the visit of the alrmen. These are the long -stemmed church. warden pipes which the aviators smoked one evening when they visit ed the inn.
 These pipes, each autographed by the smoker, are proudly displayed by the innkeeper. Already an order has been given fora glass case in which to preserve and display them in years to come.
 When the time came for the Americans to hop off for kirkwall their leavetaking of the villagers demonstrated once more the gen. uineness of the friendships formed in the space of less than fortnight. All the village folk were assembled by the riverside to see the visitors take off. The birdmen bade good bye to each by name, with many snapshots which the fliers had taken of their friends. I
