"Oh, do let's play poker," assented Mrs. Thurston, quickly. Helen, under cover of getting the cards, left the room and a second later called to Warren innocently: "Dear, won't you come and get them for me? They're at the top of the closet." "What on earth are they doing there?" asked W'arren, striding in. "Don't speak so loud," whispered Helen. "That was Just an excuse to get you in here so that I could speak to you." "Well, what do you want?" "Warren, don't play poker with the Thurstons. They play for money and I don't like it." "Never knew you to be so sqeam ish before.' "Oh, not over a few pennies, of course not. Rut they play for higher stdkes than that." "Well, suppose they do. it won't hurt you for once will it? Heaven knows you're extravagant enough when it comes to ,clothes, but here you are quarreling over the idea of losing a little bit at poker." "But why can't we play bridge as usual." "Because I'm not going to be a kill-Joy if you are. If the Thurs tons want to play poker, we'll play. They're our guests." And Warren left the room precipitately, mut tering something. "Did you get the cards?" Helen heard Mrs. Thurston inquire sweetly. Helen knew that Mrs. Thurston un derstood perfectly that little pre tense of calling Warren out for the cards, and her checks burned fu riously. The woman was a cat, why had they invited her? It was Warren's idea of course, insisting on keeping up a friendship with the Thurstons when neither Mrs. Thurs ton nor Helen cared anything for each other's viewpoints, and Mrs. Thurston for one did not trouble to conceal her indifference. "Well, poker it is, Mrs. Curtis," said Mr. Thurston, as Helen ap peared with the cards. Helen tried to smile naturally and only partly succeeded. "Do you play for stakes?" she asked sweetly. "Just a nominal stake," said Mrs. Thurston smoothly, "fifteen-cent' limit." "Whew," whistled Warren. "That too much?" asked Mr. Thurston. "No, of course not," Warren re turned. "We play penny ante though, whenever we play, which isn't often." "But that's no fun at all," said Mrs. Thurston quickly. "Oh, it doesn't matter to us." said Warren agreeably, "anything at all."

Helen 1 lost. She was not a good bluffer, and was too timid to do anything with her hand, consequently the other players quickly lost interest in her as a possible winner. To-night, hampered by the unusual stakes, she was afraid to come in at all, and the uiet "I'm out," brought ridicule from Warren. "That's the third time in succes sion that you've done that," he said presently. "Stick in the game, and be a sport, can't you? You'll like it better if you learn to play it." "But I've had no luck, dear," Helen said. "Poker isn't all luck," Warren re turned brusquely. That time Helen bet and lost and resolved to stay out in the future. She returned to her old withdrawal after the first bet. Warren was beginning to look glum, and Helen, fearful of snoil ing the evening and longing to re fuse to play at all, determined to risk everything, even if she lost | every time. A certain little giggle | of Mrs. Thurston's had gone a long way toward rousing her sporting blood, and she began to play with a conscious effort. Gradually the luck which had been agfynst her turned, and for the rest of the eve ning she won steadily. When at last she escaped on a pretext of get ting the refreshments ready, she had the satisfaction of seeing Mrs. Thurston eye her coldly, and with a certain animosity that Helen knew had arisen from the fact that her loss had been Helen's gain. In the midst of fixing sandwiches and a salad ont the tea wagon, War ren came out to the kitchen, with his face all agrin. , "Kitten, you've -Won nearly $5," he said, affably. "It was great the way you perked up at the end and put it all over Mrs. Thurston." "But I don't like It," Helen re turned quickly, "and I won't play it again. I don't like playing for stakes, and playing as though one's life depended upon it. as those peo plt did. When a game of cards gets as important as that it ceases to be fun." "Quit moralizing and bring on the food," scoffed Warren, his good humor returned. "I'll bet you'll find a way to spend that money, all right; you women can always do that." To Be Continued Advice to the Lovelorn By Ilratrlce Fairfax MEKTIJiG SIKX DEAR MISS FAIRFAX We are three college girls, and we are considered good-looking. We dress well and have many opportuni ties to entertain. Unfortunately, our school is not co educational, so we do not have any opportunities to meet men. We are members of the Y. W. C. A. and many clubs. Can you suggest ways of meeting men besides flirting with them? BETTY Of course I am going to advise emphatically against any temptations to flirt. And then lam going to add a word in which impetuous youth will naturally object: Be patient. In the natural course of events you do meet men, the brothers of your girl friends, their acquaintances, the sons of friends or your family. Of course youth longs for gayety and romance and it dosen't want to wait, but it ! often has to wait. Going out with I the avowed purpose of making mas culine acquaintances would do you no good at all , for it would prob. ably make you over-eager and, so unattractive. Just be friendly, ready to give kindly interest to every one you meet and eventually you will form a circle of friends that will in clude men as well as girls. This does not sound like very useful advice. I know, but it is the only safe advice I can give you. Just go along quietlv and calmly make friends with all you meet, and don't run so eagerly after love that you frigthen it away. DON'T! DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: About a year ago a young man, whom I have known all my lire, ask ed me to go with him for a carriage ride. After that he asked me to go with him every Sunday and some times in the evenings. .When I didn't want to go he Just insisted and said I had a standing order for every Sunday. He always seemed very proud to be with me. This kept up for three months, until the death of his father. After that he never came to see me again and made no excuses. When he meets me he smiles and passes on. Several times he has tried to avoid doing even that. Re cently I heard from a friend of mine, who knows him, that he is taking out every Sunday evening another young woman. I haven't spoken a word to him, but have been greeting him cor dially. But now I intend to cut him, because he is a cad and I don't want him to think I am running after him. H. E. B. Don't cut this man. That Is laying too much stress on the whole situa tion. If he is indeed the cad you think him, don't give him the satis faction of realizing that anything he can do matters very much to you. If there is a possible explanation, why cut yourself off from it by denying the acquaintance? He can't possibly think you are running after him If you Just bow to him with quiet and indifferent dignity. That Is the way of good taste—tAke It. Cold polite ness Is your cue. Use McNeil's Pain Exterminator—Ad. HARXUSBURO TELEGRAPH! "Outwitting the Hun" By Lieutenant Pat O'Brien (Copyright, 1918, by Pat Alva O'Brien.) "Must be a Yan- I one officer say to • another as I ap . proached. "No one ' but a Yankee would ' * have the cheek to j show up that way. But they laughed : good-naturedly as I ' % came up to them, QLs* welcomed me to the ' squadron, and I was soon very much at home. My squadron was one of four sta tioned at an airdrome about eight een miles back of the Ypres line. There were eighteen pilots in our squadron, which was a scout-squad ron, scout machines carrying but one man. A scout, sometimes called a fight ing scout, has no bomb-dropping or reconnoitering to do. His duty is just to fight, or, as the order was given to me, "You are expected to pick fights and not wait until they come to you !" When bomb-droppers go out over the lines in the daytime a scout squadron usually convoys them. The bomb-droppers fly at aNout twelve thousand feet, the scouts a thousand feet or so above them to protect them. If at any time they should be at tacked, It is the duty of the scouts to dive down and carry on the fight, the orders of the bomb droppers be ing to go on dropping bombs and not to fight unless they have to. There is seldom a time that ma chines go out over the lines on this work in the daytime that they are not attacked at some time or other, and so the scouts usually have plen ty of work to do. In addition to these attacks, however, the squadron is invariably under constant bom bardment from the ground, but that doesn't worry us very much, as we know pretty well how to avoid being hit from that quarter. On my first flight, after joining the squadron, I was taken out over the lines to get a look at things, map out my location in case I was ever lost, locate the forests, lakes, and other landmarks and get the general lay of the land. One thing that was impressed upon me very emphatically was the location of the hospitals so that in case I was ever wounded and had the strength to pick my landing I could land as near as possible to a hospital. All these things a new pilot goes through during the first two or three days after joining a squadron. Our regular routine was two flights a day, each of two hours' dur ation. After doing our regular patrol, it was our privilege to go off on our own hook, if we wished, be fore going back to the squadron. I soon found out that my squad ron was some hot squadron, our fliers being almost always assigned to spe cial duty work, such as shooting up trenches at a height of fifty feet from the ground! I received my baptism into this kind of work the third time I went out over the lines, and I would recommend it to anyone who is hankering for excitement. You are not only apt to be attacked by hostile aircraft from above, but you are swept by machine gun fire from below. I have seen some of our ma chines come back from this work sometimes so riddled With bullets that I wondered how they ever held together. Before we started out on one of these jobs, we were mighty careful to see that our motors were in perfect condition, because they told us the "war bread" was bad In Germany." One morning, shortly after I join ed the squadron, three of us started ever the line on our own accord. We soon observed four enemy machines, two seaters, coming toward us. This type of machine is used by the Huns for artillery work and bomb drop ping, and we knew they were on mis chief bent. Each machine had a machine-gun in front, worked by the pilot, and the observer also had a gun with which he could spray all around.

LIMITED. BUFFALO. N. T. When we first noticed the Huns, our machines were about six miles back of the German lines syid we were lying high up in the sky, keep ing the sun behind us, so that the enemy could not see us. We picked out three of the ma chines and dove down on them. I went right by the man I picked for myself and his observer in the rear seat kept pumping at me to beat the band. Not one of my shots took effect as I went right down under him, but I turned and gave him an other burst of bullets and down he went in a spinning nose dive, one of his wings going one way and one another. As 1 saw him crash to the ground I knew that I had got my first hostile air-craft. One of my comrades was equally successful, but the other two German machines got away. We chased them back until things got too hot for us by reason of the appearance of other German machines, and then we called It a day. This experience whetted my appe tite for more of the same kind, and I did not have long to wait. I It may be well to explain here just what a spinning nose bend is. A few years ago the spinning nose dive was considered one of the most dan gerous things a pilot could attempt, and many men were killed getting into this spin and not knowing how to come out of it. In fact lots of pilots thought that when once you get into a spinning nose dive there was no way of coming out of it. It is now used, however, in actual fly ing. The machines that are used in France are controlled in two ways, both by hands and feet, the feet working the yoke of ruddfir bar which controls the rudder; that steers the machine. The lateral con trols an fore and aft, which cause the machine to rise or lower, are con trolled by a contrivance called a "joy stick." If, when flying in the air, a pilot should release his hold on this stick, it will gradually come back to the pilot. In that position the machine will begin to climb. So if a pilot is shot and loses control of this '"joy stick," his machine begins to ascend, and climbs into the angle formed, be comes too great for it to continue or the motor to pull the plane; for a fraction of a second it stops, and the motor then being the heaviest, it causes the nose of the machine to fall forward, pitching down at a ter rific rate of speed and spinning at the same time. If the motor is still running, it naturally increases the speed much more than it would if the motor were shut off, and there is great danger that the wings will double up, causing the machine to break apart. Although spins are made with the motor on, you are dropping like a ball being dropped out of the sky and the velocity In creases with the power of the motor. This spinning nose dive has been frequently used in "stunt" flying in recent years, but is now put to prac tical use by pilots in getting away from hostile machines, for when a man is spinning it is almost impos sible to hit him, and the man mak ing the attack invariably thinks his enemy is going down to certain death in the spin. This is all right when a man is over his own territory, because he can right his machine and come out of it; but if it happens over German territory, the Huns would only fol low him down, and when he came out of the spin they would be above him, having all the advantage, and would shoot him down with ease. It is a good way of getting into a cloud, and is used very often by both sides, but it requires skill and courage by the pilot making it if he ever expects to come out alive. A spin being made by a pilot intention tionally looks exactly like a spin that is made by a machine actually being shot down, so one never knows whether it is forced or intentional until the pilot either rights his ma chine and comes out of it, or crashes to the ground.
