Airplanes Are of Great Assist

NECESSARY ALLY OF NAVY
Great Britain Seat Need of Holding
Command of Air a Well as of
. ,- Sea Aircraft Either Attack -: :
1 jiT- or Summon Patrols.
Iiondon. The measure of the suc
cess of the antisubmarine cnmpulgn Is
the sufe crossing of tho Atluntlc by a
million American - troops. . .
There is very properly a good deal
of official reticence regarding , the
- methods by which submarines are de
stroyed, but It is an open secret that
the royal air force bus contributed
.'. largely toward the defeat of the D
boat campaign. .1 ., i ,
Just as airplanes have become an
, essential auxiliary to the army, so air
.' craft have become an Indispensable
ally of the navy, making It clour that
asceuduuey In the air in future will be
as vital to Britain as her present as
cendancy at sea. '.-';
Airships of two main types,,- the
smaller known as the submarine scout
and the larger as the' coast patrol
type,' and seaplunes, are the chief In
struments for dealing with submarines
from the air. The first business of all
aircraft or submarine- offensive Is to
find the submarine. '. '. ' . i '
8ee Submersed Boats.' ;
From a certain' height in the' air,
submerged U-boats are visible to ob
. servers and their position Is conimunl
cated to the nearest naval patrol) -The
work of aircraft Is by no means con
fined to detecting the' D-boats. . They
have means of llnmedlutely attacklug
their prey without waiting for the ar
rival of the naval patrol. ,.
:'; Thero Is the obvious ,mcans of drop
ping bombs, fully effective when the
, submarine Is caught on or just below
the surface.. Modern antisubmurine
aircraft are almost equally nt home In
the air or on the-water. Should the
. U-boat dive through the water. Its pur
suer can dive through the air and re
' , lease depth charges, which have a con
siderable range of notion, and are much
- feared by U-boat commanders.
, In claiming for the It. A. F. a large
share In winning the safe .binding of.
America's first million the reservation
' must be made tliat the range of air
craft from their bases Is limited; but
their buses are not necessarily on land,
and seaplanes and submarine scouts
have accommodation on shipboard and
, are carried to the area of their deep
sea patrols. ,-s' z ,J
Where They Are Thickest
Again, it Is naturally In home wa
ters and especially Itt. the North , sen'
that submarines are thickest, butvenrd
bound from Germany, so that aircraft
' patrols are effective from home bases
over the sea zone most frequented by
U-bonts.
' Coast patrol airships accompany
convoys through home waters "spot
ting" submarines, to be dealt with
either by themselves or by destroy
ers; and If the U-bont menace- is not
' yet mastered, It is steadily and un
mistakably being brought under con
. trot. . -
Safe landing of a million Americans
. In France. Is a big fact, the signifi
cance of which can hardly be missed
even in Germany, where, according to
neutral witnesses, scepticism has been
rapidly growing lately concerning the
possibilities of the U-boat campaign". '
START COMMUNITY LAUNDRY
Canton; O, Probably First City Irf
t i s '"' Country to Make the ...
Y'rn ., Venture...
Canton, O. This city Is probably the
first In the country to have a com
mnnlty laundry. Iiesidents of the
northeast section of the city have
formed an organization fort the es
tablishment of the laundry. Shares of
stock were sold at $10 each and more
than 800 stockholders -are interested
in the venture. In connection with
the laundry the community plant will
operate a dry cleaning establishment,
hat and shoe denning shop and shoe,
repair shop. While the plant will be,
profit sharing concern, the price of
work, It Is expected, will be held con
siderably below the regular prlcfcs to
stockholders. '

Y Hit Drastic Action. '
"It seems to mo that motorists tast
ing' through here are extremely rock
less In their driving," said the hyper
critical guest, "Pon't the authorities
try to do anything to stop their speed
ing through town?'!
Well," responded the landlord of
the Fetuuia tavern, "Constable Slack
piutor dldn;t do much till one Joy rider'
ran smack over him and went racing
off to the westward. But then, you
Jicteha, be ..crawled to a telephone,
called up the captain of the home
guards at Wnyoverbebind, and ordered
him to get his company out and take
the nofnrlous cuss deud or alive. Ths
captain didn't do It, but It Just showed
how nwnko to his duty Slack had sud
denly become. Any thno you run over
a small town officer you can get ac
tion and re-action out of hlin." Iumr

Ilenry's mother was rplalntng
some of the reasons why he siiouw uo
n good boy at all times. Among- other
things she told hi in that he had only
one life to' live and ono chance here
on earth to-be good. ; . v
'"Well, mother," said' ITenry, "I think
we should have two chances."
! "No, '. Henry; God gives us just ono
rhnnce and we must try yery hard to
be just as good nst we can be."
. i'Well.V replied the boy, "I think wo
should have two chances.- Now, who
do yon think is right, mother, God or
me" . v .

.An Apology for Sarcasm.
;"Are sarcastic .people Ill-natured?"
: '.'Not always," replied Miss Cayenne.
"Sometimes whnt seems sarcasm Is n
generous efTort, to be euphemistic In
stating a necessary fact."
Systematic Effort Wins.
If wo take our days and reduce them
to the essentials wo shall find that
there nro many real (hlngs to do, need
ful things to do, and we shall go about
these, tasks quietly and earnestly, not
expressing omienergles through a hun

properly directed, doing whatever our
