16 Flying With Shaffer OVER CHATEAU-THIERRY LETTERS FROM A DAUPHIN' COUNTY BOY TO HIS MOTH UK Escadrilie Sped 38, Seeteur Postal 340, G. C. 22, August 21, 1918. Dear Mother: —Now that I am right where the big, battle was, near Cha teau-Thierry, 1 have plenty of chances to see just how much dam age artillery given free rein can do. It's a beautiful country hereabouts and even Ihe passing of temporary war clouds was not sufficient to dim the scenery. 1 had ample opportu nity to view some of it the first day we arrived, for as we had flown to a new "piste" we naturally had no arrangements made for being fed. Army Lives on Stomach Our stomachs soon made tis agree with Napoleon that un army lives on it's stomach, so the whole escadrtl'.o piled into a truck and away we went to hunt some grub. Following a road that followed all the curves and twists of the Marne river was a sight almost beautiful enough to make one forget his hunger —almost, hut not quite. Evidence of the bom bardment was on every hand here several houses demolished, and again a thick wall which commanded an open stretch of road would be cut full of business-like holes for ma chine guns, and apple orchards with nary an apple in their shady depths were simply masses of barbwire. a use that their owner, I am sure, never intended them for. ery tew of the villages were inhabited, al though a few had returned to their partly demolished houses. We finally arrived at a fair-sized village .thickly populated with half a dozen different nationalities ot soldiers and many civilians. Fair Sex. but— ' I even saw some American can teen girls. And while I am on the subject of American girls—we passed] one Red Cross girl on the road. She was driving an enormous truck and; doing it well, too, but she sure did; get the "vazzoo" from the French men, for she was the toughest look ing specimen I have ever seen of the angelic sex. In my opinion, it was not so much Ihe girl's fault as her work, for such rough work will have its effect even on a man. Tho Democratic French Well, we had a wonderful dinner, and had it with the officers, an event that would probably cause a court martial in any other army, but it just goes to show how close French officers keep to their men, and yet they are as much respected as in any other army. There even hap pened to be a pretty girl left in the town bombardments generally leave the ugly ones —and she waited on the table, serving us with a six fcourse dinner, which is pretty good considering how close we were to the front. > The first course, as usual, j consisted of the whole fish cooked "a la naturale," head, entrails, scales and tail being removed by the diner. Don't look so sick! It really is very good after one gets the cam ouflage off. And while I am helping your appetite for dinner, I better tell you how the cook took a black ing brush to get the dust oft our bread for the supper. It had ac quired quite a coating en route, and after he had brushed the dust off and handed il to me, he matter-of faetly began brushing his coat and shoes with the same brush. It tickled me considerably, and I left out a hearty laugh, which was a bigger surprise (o that Frenchman than a 5-frano tip. Wine Better Than Water To come back to the dinner, though, the water given us was ab solutely unfit to drink. Looked more like milk in color, and as for the taste—ugh! t had to drink something, and since wine was all that was nroeurable, I took some of that, for I had drunk nothing all day I and was indeed in need of some thing wet. The Americans dining in the same restaurant looked at our commander in awed admiration, for he was wearing all his medals, and it did indeed make a most imposing display. Another officer with us also had all his on, and he having some ten Huns to his credit had con siderable; therefore, as an escadrilie, we made considerable splash. Tablecloth For Napkin Everyone was in quite a merry humor and since no napkins were served the officers began allotting each other rart of the tablecloth as a substitute. 1 was out of luck again, as the cloth just about leached the edge of my place, which was embarrassing to say the least.! What would I do if they passed the i tingerbowls? Fortunately, that ca lamity did not occur. Chateau de Shaffer The inhabitants of Shaffer's Heights are not the only ones who can boast of a bungalow! You should see my war bungalow! Of course, I only use one room .and that, as a blase clerk would put it, is "second ficor front," no baths or electric lights and don't stretch too quickly, you'll break something, and Ihe Boche have done too much of that already. It's quite a nice room for one who is hunting the simple, old-time effects. I even have lace curtains on the window and there are actually three windowpanes left —I counted them, and to make sure tho other throe were paneiess pushed my hand through them. It's so iong since I have locked through a pane of glass that I wasn't quite sure whether it was a mirage or not. And would you believe it, an iron bed with a real mattress? It's a fact! 1 turned a somersault on it and still have a bump on my head where 1 hit the celling to prove Its springi ness, which same, if it does nothing NO MAN is relieved of his duty as a citizen nor can he escape being RESPONSIBLE by neglecting to perform that duty. A governmental WRECK is usually daused by good men wickedly neglecting to REGISTER and vote. Such have no right to complain at High Taxes or Public Immorality All Voters Must Register Again This Fall Saturday, Oct. 5 THURSDAY EVENING, pise, will teach me to confine my looping where there is plenty of sky 100m. Sad to say, there are two enormous mirrors, also, so 1 shall do considerable suffering. since every time I sec myself I get a pain. Wonder if others see me thus? Of course. I know you don't, but moth ers always are prejudiced. The former occupant of said room certainly had a perverted idea of in terior decorating, for the walls were plastered with nothing but fashion plates from La Mode. The Demon I'TlCs And you should see our dining room. It's nothing more or less than the village schoolhouse, wtth sen tences still on the blackboard and charts for the medical class hung everywhere. Judging from the num ber of flies, they must have moved in when the children moved out. Golly! I never saw so many in all my life! Yesterday, while eating my soup, I laid a small piece 01 bread down near my plate for use ,n the near future, but when I wanted it I could not find it, so well was it I camouflaged by hungry flies, and that isn't all. either. Many beee are in evidence and several Frenchmen have already been stung. It way sound strange, but I have not suf fered in that way yet—yes, 1 nave mv fingers crossed and am knocking wood, for I have not forgotten how much they loved me in my younger days. Hun l oops the Loop My hunting range will n °w extend around Soissons instead of Rheims, and from reports it's quite a lively sector. The first day ou * a P a * ,?L ,? our escadrilie got in a fight wiith biplane and one of them got the su - prise of his life when he got on the Boche's tail and began shooting and the Boche did a loop. The next thing the Frenchman knew he was being used for the target. I give this instance because Its u*- ceptional for a blplane-a heavy, two-man plane—to do .. . t batics. It's, not only dangerous, as the wings arei 1 . come off with the unusual st.ai.i_ The -Boche biplane as a rule a straight dive for home when a - tacked, but it looks as if the rule s not followed here. Anjway, Urn morning my commamier knocked down one Boche. and a lieutenant another. What am 1 doing? Noth inn at present, but waiting for n . plane to be ready. You see, itwas having its motor changed, and I went to fetch it to-day from the place where I had gone en panne incidentally. I got lost on t ie way here and nearly landed in Taris. It was mv own fault, of course, being so cocksure that I knew the route that I paid little attention to my map, with the result that 1 went sailing over Chateau-Thierry with hardly a second look. Soon discov ering I was lost, I came down near an aviation field, loaded up with some more gas, found where I was, and stat—• hack, soon arriving at my proper loost. Chateau-Thierry After Bombardment It. was when we went in the autos to the place from which 1 was to fly my plane that I actually saw something that looked like the re sults of a battle, for we went byway of Chateau-Thierry. Thus we had a chance to see the results of shot and shell in this hotly-contested sector. We not only saw it- we had it duly impressed on us, for many of the shells had landed in the road and | the newly-fixed holes gave us some verrific bumps. Hitting a bump with a' truck —or a Ford—is nothing amusing, epecially when it happens often. It's not like getting a bump in an airplane. There you bounce up and stay up, but in an auto there is always a comeback. When you go u pyou always come down, and the seat is sure to meet you half-way every time. However, the novelty of the sights along the way were worth the discomfort. Shell holes there! were everywhere, and villages were] mostly debris. Trenches zigzagged through tho clover, oats and rye fields, and apple orchards were noth-j ing but barbwlre entanglements,: while all along the mad there were! numerous places for battery em placements. Piles of empty shells lay in numerous places, and yet in direct contrast to all this, the farm ers were cutting their oats and hay as if nothing like a battle had ever occurred. Oh, yes, the Huns left the grain, because they were in too big a hurry to leave to take anything along. Trees All Destroyed The saddest thing I saw, I think, were the mutilated, dead and dying trees along the road. France's roads are noted for their good construction but they are also noted for the trees that line their sides. This not only makes travel cooler for the autoist but is pleasing to the eye as well. Sad to say, many of these big trees were cut clean off by bullets. Others shot up so badly they died, while some of the small forests we passed through were literally stripped of branches, so terrific had been the hail of bullets. Which will give you a vague idea of what the American troops went through to win that battle, which Harrisburg, Dauphin and Marysville helped to celebrate. ] Hunting Trouble Finally got my plane ready yes terday and tried it over Chateau- Thierry. As I was at 2,000 meters I took a good look around the country in order to get the lay of the land, as this Is an entirely new sector to me, and since there are no trenches to guide an aviator as to the position DESPOTS PLAN TO SAVE DYNASTIES; I VICTORIES WARN War Results Convince Kaiser | and Austrian Emperor the j People Must Dominate Washington, Oct. 3. —Signs are mulyplying in reports reaching thi State Department front various agencies,in neutral European coun tries of the rapid weakening of the despotic control which the military elements in Germany nnd Austria have imposed upon the civilian pop ulation. So extensive and conse quential are the events quickly fol lowing one another in Berlin and I lenna that American officials are becoming convinced the Im perial rulers have been forced, how ever reluctantly, to - the conviction that if they arc to preserve their dynasties from destruction they must yield to the growing demands of the civilian elements for the rights of participation in the government during this crisis. The military parties have retained their control only because of their asserted ability to secure a military decision that would confirm German supremacy over continental Europe and the British Isles as well. Now that the German armies are being defeated and driven back into Ger many, and the nation is confronted with the painful certainty of an in vsion and retributive justice for the wrongs Inflicted upon the French and Belgians, the influence of the pan-Germans and military parties is waning and it is believed that the two emperors have decided that if they are to retain the support of the people they must turn to the civilian parties that have been de manding a voice in affairs. It was pointed out yesterday that President Wilson repeatedly has de clared that with the military rulers of the Central Powers convicted of broken faith and deceit there can be no discussion of the peace for which the Germanic people apparently are clamoring. Hence the belated at tempts of the emperors to erect a structure of real democratic govern ment through the creation of cab inets responsible to the parliaments in the hope that with these the En tente statesmen will be willing to confer about peace. As a half-way measure and in a desperate effort to save the Imperial prerogatives, Emperor William al ready has tried the expedient of himself selecting leaders of the op position parties for minor places in the cabinet and promising to for ward the enactment of popular measures. But the Socialists gener ally have declined to accept any thing short of absolute control through the Reichstag of the cab inet without reference to the wishes of the Emperor and officials be lieve that at length they are about to realize their aspirations. Such a change in Germany doubt less would be followed, if not indeed preceded, by a similar revolution in Avstrian parliamentary govern ment and it is fully expected that as soon as real representative gov ernment is a fact In the central em pires there will be an irresistible movement towards peace even on the terms laid down by President Wil son. i of the line, he must needs keep an eye on his map. If he loses himself on his map, be certainly is a gono goose.. So I flew around looking over the country, impressing the lo cation of large forests and rivers in my mind, as that is all one can seo at our usual flying height of 5,000 meters. It's almost impossible to find a road at that height, camou flaged as they are, tand as for arail road, I've given up trying to look for theni, as 1 never can find them. I had been flying around this way for some fifteen minutes when I sud denly saw a big biplane coming to ward me from the direction of the front. A Fresh Humorist Not knowing whether it was French or Boche 1 climbed into the sun to have a look. It turned out to be French, so I swung around and continued on my tour of inspection, when I noticed another big plane immediately overhead. However. I knew that w'.s a French plant right away, but as he was only some hun dred meters above me, I kept an eye on him. "It was well I did, for when directly over me he stood up on one wing and giving his rudder a kick came diving head first down on me. I did not know what the Sam Hill the big idea was. Maybe he thought I was a Hun, or he may have only been amusing himself. Nevertheless I lost no time in getting out from under, for with such a big plane there was no telling whether he was out of control or playing. As lie went on down and landed then I dove for home myself. Pool Shooting in Clouds ' Coming down over the "piste" I opened fire with both guns on a small pool of water situated in the middle of the field. Golly! you should have seen the water fly! 1 was particularly interested in seeing if my telescope sight was regulated right, also whether my balloon gun was in good working order. It sure was, for it was a sight for sore eyes to see those flaming bullets go hiss ing into the water. They did not all go in the pool, of course, some land ing alongside, setting fire to the grass in a number of places. The French pilots are still kidding me about my marksmanship, saying 1 actually killed two fishes, that being the number of holes in the target which was floating in the water. However, it was not a big pool, and I am satisfied that if I group my bullets as well when shooting at a balloon it will surely burn. This morning I made my first pa trol over our new lines. I wasted no time in looking for Boche, letting that duty to my lieujenant. I was more interested in studying my map. Thus we got down near our old hunting ground at Rheims, and I saw my loader suddenly dive. I promptly followed. looking around meanwhile to see the object of the dive. Far, far below I saw four planes, but they looked like Spads lo me, which they were, as the lieu tenant pulled up and started home soon after, as we had been out over two hours then. Guardian Angel on Job When I arrived at the home roost T found it was. not the four Spads the lieutenant was diving on. He h.. I seen a biplane Boche right over me, and since his motor was not power ful enough to pull him up to the Boche's heights, he dove In the hope that I would follow and thus get out of danger. And nil the time I had been ambling along, all my attention being concentrated on reading my map, blissfully ignorant of the men ace overhead! Truly my guardian angel has not fallen down on the job eh Dad? WALTER.

OCTOBER 3, 1918 AUSTRIAN BARON SEES DANGER IN BULGARIAN MOVE Realizes That Humanity and Reason Should Control Central Powers By Associated Press Amsterdam, Oct. 3.—Baron Von Hussarek in his address to the Aus trial lower house of parliament on Tuesday, admitting that the situa tion resulting from the withdrawal of Bulgaria from the war was grave but in no wise crtical, declared the Teutonic allies had taken com prehensive military measures for ameliorating the sltuaton. | "We are making good progress," said the premier, "and according to [communications from competent quarters I can declare that we have done everything to permit us calmly to face further developments of the | Balkan affair.

Mean while it is not permitted us to lift our eyes from the terrible welter of battle. The dreadful check human ity is suffering in the march of civi lization by this prolonged trial is be coming clearer."
