That everyone may be impressed that
the work is carried on for the little
Belgian children the carnival will be
etated by a children's parade at one
o'clock Friday afternoon. The littlo tots
who will be dressed in gay colors and
various costumes will parade around the
park.
From the many clever plans that are
being arranged, the carnival promises
to nave some features altogether new
nd attractive. One that is arousing ev
eryone's curiosity aud enthusiasm is
railed "Swat the Kaiser," which is In
charge of Dan F. Langenberg.
Mrs. Fred Thieleen will have charge

All But Scared To Death
One Day
(Copyright, 1918, by the t'nited Press.)
With the American Airmen ia Franc.
July 10. (By Mail) "There was one
day in the history of the gimper squad
ron we'fl never forget, especially Jim-
mis Meissner, one of the best ginipers.
It was Jimmie Meissner day, I guess,
and if he wasa't Beared to death, it's
because Jimmie doesn t know how to
be scared."
Lieutenant Eddie Bickenbacker fig
ured prominently in "Jimmie Meissner
day," as he saved Meissner 'g life
twice inside of aa hour. Hence ke I
qualified to tell the story.
"Jimmie and I were out waiting
for some home-coming English bomb
ers," began Rickenbacker, "when we
got separated somehow. The English
men came along all right and I spotted
them first. Then I saw a squadron of
German planes harassing the English
men. "I dove off toward the flock of
German planes and jnst as I began to
pique on one of them 1 noticed an A
merican plane diving on one German,
with three more Germans diving on
him. I could see he was in danger by
the stream of bullets which passed on
all sides of him.
So I piqued on the most danger
ous boche and got him, bat as I did so
I saw tho American plane fall, ap
parently out of control, for it was one
of the beat leaf falls 1 have ever seen.
"Yoai caut't stop when something
goes down, so I began flying for alti-
tuo. I.feltl llikv piquing on some
Hun after seeing the American plane
drop.
"I was feeling pretty sore when I
saw an American plane with one wing
torn off struggling toward home. He
was having a hard time of it and los
ing speed all the time, as well as get
ting lower and lower. It was a pathetie
sight to see a gimper in such a fix and
be unable to help him.
"I went up near and waved my
band to encourage the gimper and he
waved back. Then I looked around
and saw a German biplane bearing
garct, of 326 North Liberty Btrect, went
to Seattle, where they will visit rela
tives. As they formerly lived in Seattle
wli.'n Dean Aldon was a professor in
the department of history-at the Uni
versity of Washington, they have many
friends whom they will enjoy meeting
again,
One of the new industries that has
attracted women because of the war
situation is that 'of making gas masks.
At tho Long Island gas defense plant
there are three thousand and ninety
women working in the production of
these war time necessities.
There arc thirty processes concerned
in the manufacture of the gas masks,
and although the work was entirely
new in the united States, when tne in
dustry started it was found that wo-
an were capable of acquiring skiu
along this line.
The different parts or tne masas are
prepared in others parts of the coun
try aud it is in this plant that the
parts are united to form the finished
article. Each distiuct'part is examined
before it is combined with th other
parts aud in every department of the
work there are inspectors closely scrut
inizing for detection of flaws. At the
completion of the mask over two hun
dred women inspectors test the finish
ed article to discover anytmng tnat
may be imperfect in the work.
One of the most interesting phases
is the rart dealing with the testing of
the mask as to wuetner eacn one win
mouerlv and successfully allow the foul
air to be replaced by fresh.
Among the people who returned this
week from the popular summer resort,
Newport, were Mrs. Boy Kicc ana two
sons, uelhrrt ana l nomas ro"i "
Miss Nellie Stewart of Kansas tity,
Missouri. They returned Thursday even
ing, after a vacation of a month at the
coast. Miss Stewart lias oeen visuiug
Mrs. Rice, who is h.or cousin, since the
first. oi Ju,y- However she expects to
leave sometime next week for the north
where sua will visit friends m Jseaitie
aud other points.
I he frieuiis of Miss Buelah Woods,
who formerly lived in Salem will b.
tcrestt'd to hear of her woik which is
so vitally concerned with tha war. She
graduated from the Salem high school
with the class of 1914 and then contin
ued her education nt the University of
California, where she erndliated this
suriiiL'. Immediately after commence-
m.Mit she begun working at Mare Island
navy yard where sho is engaged as a
driiflsmnn. During hor college course she
took n'anv cmuies in mechanical draw
i!?, arciiitectuic, aud kindred subjects
su that flic is (nullified for this partic
ular -ami k. Tli.'ie are three other girls
who graduated with her from the some
department and the four are working
tnsrethcr now. Thev draw plans aim
sketch desiirns of shius which offers
such a large field at present. Those
girls are not required to wear uniforms
as they are m.j enlisted, but merely em
ployed in this Work.
The home of Mr. aud Mrs. T. S.
Gulden, 1395 Saginaw street, as the
scene of a pretty birthday party the
first of the week", when a merry group
of friend cathered to celebrate the
anniversary of Miss Annabclle Guldens
birthday. Tho affair was in the nature
jof a dinner and places w.ere laid for

"So I maneuvered for position and
got it. Just a I let the German have
it he opened fire on the American who
was Jimmie, tad I eould see by the
stream of bullets that the German was
going to get Jimmie, if I didn't get
him.
"Fortunately, I did end he went
crashing to the ground, reaving Jimmie
straggling along, always lower and
lower and with a regular eloud of
black German Archie puffs all about
him. I hovered and did some loops
and turns over tha German gunners'
heads. The ruse insulted then and
they turned most of their Arehies my
way, which did no harm since I had
plenty of speed and was in little dan
ger. .But it saved Jimmie who was
now going terribly siow and the fact
that the -Germans are so easily insulted
'helped a lot.
"Just as Jimmie was reaching the
lines I noticed another gimper piquing
on him. I could not imagine why he
"would pique on a gimper who was in
such a bad plight and I maneuvered
to attract his attention.
"Later we learned this gimper was
a man from the squadron. He saw
Jimmie with one wing torn off and
thought he was a German Taub. He
was just about to let Jiuimie have it
when he noticed the coquardson Jim
niio's hail- So Jimmie had another
close squeak that day.
"We all got back all right Jimmie
by nothing short of a miracle and
felt a lot better about it. we never
straightened the story out for several
days when by an accidental bit of
gossip at the table I learned the boche
I first piqued on that day was the one
which was after Jimmie. The Amer
ican plane which went out of control,
also turned out to be Jimmie, who was
doing a falling stunt to fox the Ger
mans. It was a pretty piece of work,
for I surely gave the plane up for good
He had flattened out near the ground,
come up for altitude, got in a fight,
collided with a German, who crashed,
and was struggling home when I saw
him the second time."
