THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN", PORTLAND, JANUARY 23, 191G. 11 3 53BI- Over the Irad In bo Arople. by Rlph . Pulus- $i lilutrated. Harper 4c Bros., N orlL City. Condensed into one sentence, the aim of this book has been and Is: "The simple record of a thrilling trip by per haps the only civilian ever permitted to go to the front in a French army aero plane." Mr. Pulitzer is a well-known news paper owner of New York City, and he can thank his lucky stars that by vir tue of special favor shown him by the French government he was permitted to make certain trips along tne r rencn and Belgian war trenches to what is known as the "Western front" trips not ordinarily undertaken by any of the numerous war correspondents. Above all, he had the unique honor of riding in a French army aeroplane. Out of these remarkable experiences he has written a modest, interesting and val uable war book of unusual happenings- He shows especial talent in describing his actual war experiences, as to what he saw and did, and what was said to him. In the first chapter our author de scribes his airship trip and begins: "Paris. August 13. I have Just re turnel from a unique visit to the front. This afternoon I new in an army aero plane from Paris to the fighting lines, skirted these lines for a few kilo meters and Hew back to Paris. We made the round trip without a break. I am indebted to the Quite exceptional Kind ness of the French Foreign Office, and of the French War Office, for this flignt. No other civilian has been allowed to ascend in a French army aeroplane at all, and as for visiting the front in one. It has apparently been undreamed of. Poor Needham went up In a British mil itary aeroplane, but what he saw and felt were buried with him. For his trin through the air Mr. Pul ltzer wore a heavy leather suit put over his regular clothes, and a heavy padded helmet carefully fastened under his chin by a buttoned flap and also an elastic band. He and his war pilot sailed up to a height of 5000 meters, or 9900 feet, at the racing speed of 80 .miles per hour. Me saw mo war ironi. the battle line of allies and Teutons. observed from an altitude or 33vu leei. and thought that the trenches were roads. As the aeroplane came to earth It developed that the machine was ni I mi one of its pneumatic wheels. The chance was that the aviator. Ignorant Of the accident, would, when Be lanaea, turn turtle and probably be killed. But, fortunately, the aeroplane came to earth without the occurrence ol any fatality. On his way to the trenches, and un der the guidance of a French officer, Mr. .Pulitzer saw autos with steel frames running from the radiators, overhead to the back seats, these frames naving rasor-eded knife blades attached. '"In open warfare, while scouting along strange roads, these were useful in Fhearing through any wires which the thoughtful foe might have strung across for the decapitation of speeding visitors." Testimony is given as to the friendly feeling between French . of fleers and enlisted men: "The officers talked to the men Intimately and placed their hands on the men's shoulders affec tionately. The men answered the of ficers easily, without restraint, but all j-tood at attention and smartly gave the salute, which they regarded as a dig nity and not a degradation a marvel ous combination of discipline and de mocracy." It is stated on the authority of a French General. whose name is. of course, not given that the reason why Von Kluck. the German General, did not capture Paris in his memorable drive towards it, in August 1914. was: In August. 1913. the army maneuvers in Germany were worked out to rep resent, an invasion of France, and in these maneuvers. Von Kluck com manded the right wing, precisely as he did in the actual invasion. He decided in maneuvers, to attack Paris and was censured afterwards by the expert board of Generals who decided that. Instead, he ought to have attacked the French army. This censure became known to the French military authorities. When the actual battle advance on Paris came, the French guessed that Von Kluck would avoid Purls and chase the French army, and this was precisely what Von Kluck did. The French were rendy for him. and he had to retreat. Mr. Pulitzor says he fell in love with the French big guns, the "seventy fives." and it is curious to reflect that all these big guns are hidden in the earth, so that they can be made in visible to the enemy. We are told of these ?5s. mounted on an auto capable of doing more than 30 miles an hour over a rc.nl. and starting a stream of 25 shells a minute after coming to a standstill. The b st writing in the book fea tures French artillery practice and gun results. "Lunch" is mentioned many times. The opinion is expressed that peace In the near future is impossible, air. Pulitzer appears to be doubtful as to Britain's ability as a nation to become a nation in arms to fight and beat the nation in arms that is Germany. The Ma sir of Jewel and (hinn ly pr.

No. Mildew Manse isn't the residence of a devout, strait-laced clergyman, but the slang name of the home of Mr. and Mrs. Hazard otherwise known as Haphazard and their six surviving children. It was also a house of numer ous mortgages. Out of these incidents and f act our author has worked up a story of quiet, family interest, and en joyable fun. Jo. the eldest son of the Hazards, ap pears to be the only one of the Haz ard children -' who had a streak of common sense. His streaks were "thin and far . between, like the lean in ba con." Into this family came Joan Lynn, who tells the story, to board and room in "Oregon." The Hazards had named each of their rooms geographically in accordance with the temperature. Opti mistic as Joan was, she could not keep from worrying . for fear pf the day when one of the nine mortgages would come due. However, when she spoke to Mrs. Hazard about it, that cheerful mother replied: ''There is no such thing as a future. Ypu can't catch up to It- It's an illu-. sion a will-o'-the-wisp the message of the morrow. Why bother about what never comes?" . The blow fell at last.- Mildew-Manse was sold, and a wrecker was about, to tear down the houses when Joan asked the -new owner if they, the Hazards, might have the house if they would move it off the lot. The owner was only too glad to agree. So it was the Hazards saved their home.. . Tile family decided to live in it while a house-moving company was wheeling It through the city streets. The children shouted with delight at the prospect of such a trip. They spread the good news about the school, especially in the -fourth-grade room. Grandma Hazard was de lighted, because it would give .her a splendid opportunity to see the city. The boys had to be driven to school. Joan says: - "I didn't blame the boys for open re bellion when school time came. Their teacher was at the Goudolaris restau cant for luncheon, and she told me that in the first hour when Haphiram Haz ard went to the .blackboard she was conscious of a general stir' of excite ment in -the room. Her eyes moved swifter than the eraser, and she saw written- in big letters: 'She's Started." " The interest shifts to Alaska, and a pretty love story is unfolded.

TO APE APE'S SLEEP CURES Chicago 5lan Abandons Bed and Finds Kcllef From His. CHICAGO, .'111., Jan. 14. Why pay physicians' bills when you can sleep in a chair? . Herewith "Matf Boeder, of the Cax ton School Supply Company, advances a theory which he says he developed by aping an ape. "One year ago." Mr. Boeder explained, Sanunary of Statistics for Oregon. forces in Mesopotamia by Lieutenant General Sir Percy Henry Noel Lake. General Nixon took command on April 15 of 40,000 Anglo-Indians at the head of the Persian Gulf to protect the Anglo-Persian Oil Company's wells and pipe line. When this had been done he started two columns northward. 0110 by way of the Euphrates under Gen eral George Corringe, the other by way of the Tigris under General Towiib hend. . In the last two months. General Nixon, who has Just . been invalided home, has been ill at Basra. In fact he was so ill that he could not sign hla dispatches. "I was a physical wreck rheumatism and stomach trouble. Unable to sleep I rode in electric cars and took ionir walks at all times of the night. This soothed me for the time, and early one morning, while on a journey to Lin coln Park, the idea occurred to me to imitate the ape in hismanner of rest. His body stiffly erect, he supports his head between clenched fists while sleeping. All of the vital organs are left free. "So I abandoned my bed and began sleeping in a hard, strfaight-b.icked chair. Every muscle in my body ached when I began, but I was determined to give it a fair trial. At the end of a month. I tried the bed and got up in the morning feeling more wretched than ever. Then I went at it in earnest and in six months the only thing that affected my stomach or nerves was the sight of a bed. I was practically cured. "At first I slept on a chair at the store. Then I discovered all night shows and I decided to introduce the cabaret feature in my sleeping. Three hours of sleep under such conditions is equivalent to 10 hours of rest in a, bed, Snd there is little possibility of devel oping disease of the stomach, heart or muscle. "To sprawl upon one's stomach or back in a stuffy bed is ridiculous and injurious as well." 29-YEAR-OlD FARE USED Man Uses Ticket, He Ilought llt-roro Ite fscrved Long Sentence. KANSAS CITY, Jan. 13. A man whose face was white and drawn ended a long delayed journey recently. He entered a train at the union station here and after a while gave his ticket to the conductor, who regarded it curiously. The ticket called for a trip to Galla tin, Mo.; was issued by the Wabash & Pacific Railway in 1886 and was good till. The passenger told his story briefly, sadly. Twenty-nine years ago he was traveling from Leavenworth to Galla tin. He had arrived in Kansas City and bought a ticket to Galltln whec he was arrested and taken back to Leavenworth. Found guilty, he had served 29 years in the Federal prison in Leavenworth. 1
