in that constant military use Of
planes provided many refinements
and made flying much commoner and
much safer. After the war the game
went on with renewed impetus.
In 1919 the Atlantic ocean sur
rendered completely to flyers. First
to cross was the IT, s. navy scaplane,
the NCA. which flew from New
foundland to the Azores and thence
via Portugal to England. This
achievement was soon eclipsed by II
heroic non stop flight from New
foir dland to Ireland by Captain John
Alcock of England, accompanied by
Lieutenant Arthur Brown, an Amer
lean. They made the ! $50 miles in
a little over Is hours, and narrowly
escaped disaster when, landing in
Ireland, they came down in a bog
and their plane was wrecked. Alcock
was killed less than a year later
when he crashed while flying in
France.

MISS ANNA MOFFET, FORMER BISMARCK
GIRL, WRITES OF CHINESE WARFARE

for the Chinese--probably not SO
great.
We had sent home a good many
of the girls in Ming Deb but there
were still between 20 and 80 re-
naming in the school. Besides, our
school compound had been desig-
mated by the Chinese church Red
Cross organization as a refugee cen
ter for women and children in case
of disorder or danger.
COnsul's Family Stays
And it didn't seem right for us ia
pull out and run from a danger
which threatened US even less than
it did the people whom we had both
q duty and an opportunity to pro-
tect. So. even on Wednesday after
nooh,, when another letter came ad-
vising US to leave, we didn't go.
Instead we went over to Chilling
and to the Thomson's and several
other places to find out what other
people were doing. We found all
Ginling still on the job and lots OF
other people not leaving. Even the
consurs wife and two girls were
staying, in spite of his advice ia
other people to leave.
So we didn't think there was any
great need for alarm. Besides we
heard that the nationalist armies
were already in Marking, that there
was considerable disorder and fight
ing in the streets and that we prob
ably couldn't get to Hsia-Kwan
(the port where the gunboats were
then if we wanted to-. So we went
home satisfied that things would
quiet down in short time and that
we would have neither serious fight
ing, siege, or northern army loot
ing.
It looked as if the city had just
"flopped" to the nationalists, as we
had hoped. Things were. fairly quiet
during the evening, though we heard
occasional shots. The school build
ings were packed with refugee won't
en- and children, but we didn't fear
any trouble.

We had said all along that if there

We would leave at once. But no one
thought that would happen.
We had = fairly peaceful night
Wednesday, with no disturbance OF
excitement till just before sunrise
when we heard firing fairly near al
hand. So i got up and went over
to the school to see that the girls
who were sleeping on the third
floor. were brought down to the first
floor and that the refugees stayed in
the building and kept, out Of danger
of chance shots.
People didn't seem to be very fear
full, and soon after daylight they

not to be found in medical works.
He said it was possible for. per-

health, when in fact there might be
"some insidious bodily degeneration
taking place." High blood pressure
and early heart and blood vessel
changes were listed amonr the in

After Sgiving his key for avoid

makes the heart pump against resist

BIASED upon these facts, the rules
for such patients are:
"Never eat to the point Of satia-

do not limit your meals to two
daily, thereby allowing yourself to
get so hungry that, at the next meal
you will eat until you are blue in
the face, because that often brings
on sudden death. Rather. eat 3 or
even 4 times day, eating very little
each time.
AVOID all stimulating foods and
drinks, excepting by the Doctors
orders. This is very important.
