Boston Light, which celebrated its two hundredth anniversary on Sep. tember 14, was the first lighthouse built in America, and is one of the most important in the Horth Atlantic. In the days of the old windjammer, the sailor beating his way aeross tem pestuous Massachusetts Bay or run ning before a driving storm looked longingly for the white column by day and the great light by night, for. he knew that beyond the light lay the safe channel. The first light was knidled Friday, September 14, 1716, by George IWorthylake, who with M3 wife and daughter, was shortly afterward drowned. In this early diy the light keeper was also health oiReer of the port, and his duties include! the pilot ing of vessels in tc 'the harbor and the saving of life. The first light house was burned and rebuilt again in 1720. The lighthousi and other buildings wera again bunicii and re built in 1751. In 1776 tac British, driven from Boston by Washington's victorious army, destroyed the light house as they sailed away. It was re built again by the State jX Massachu setts in 1780. In 1790 the lighthouse was formally turned ove to tho Fed eral government. It stands on a QUICK DELIVERIES . are a feature of this lumber bus iness.

Lieu tenant Deuliin and Lieutenant Ilulsert de la Tour, the Damon and Pythias of the French aviation service, hae just suffered the bitter disappointment f : failing to bring down , together as they had solemnly sworn they would do their fifth German aviator. Less than twelve hours separated the in dividual exploits of the two friends, Deuliin bringing down his fifth Ger man on the evening of August 24 and De La Tour his fifth on the following morning, yet the interval of twelve hours broke the solemn compact which they had been able to maintain from their joint entrance into the French aviation service. To lessen a little their regret the French government officially announced the two exploits in the same communique but the avia tors are firmly convinced that destiny has now intervened in their friend ship. Deuliin, who is only 28 yjars old entered the French aviation service on May 25, 1915 his license being No. 2078, which gives some idea of the number of aviators France has at her disposal. The two young aviators were thrown almost instantly to gether, and unlike Nungesser, who in sists always on flying alone, they in sisted on flying together. Ifteir i)a mon and Pythias friendship was quickly cemented, when in the same flight each one brought down his first German aeroplane. Soon, there fol lowed for each, the second German aeroplane, brought down in a joint flight, and then the third and then the fourth. By this time the two avi ators had flown both at Verdun and' at the Sontme, and they had solmenly sworn that as in the past their next aviator Would be brought down at the same time in a joint flight. Un fortunately on the evening of August 24 in one of their usual joint flights Deuliin brought down his opponent while De La Tour's got away. Sst- teriy disappointed, the two men only waited until daylight the next jnorn insr before starting to retrieve their misfortune. In this Sight they only succeeded m tindmg one German avia- or whom Deuliin generously left to his friend, and who lost no time in bringing him down. Their disappoint ment was slightly lessened but they frankly admit the fear they feel that their solemn compact can no longer be maintained. There is only one thing that will reassure them and that is that the sixth aviator to be brought down by each will be brought down at the same time in a joint flight. Not only they, hut the entire French aviation service is keenly Awaiting the moment when this supreme test will eoine, , Candidates Announcements. For Assessor, .
