In accordance with the demand of
the time for more definite and concrete
knowledge of first aid work, the Wo
man's Relief Corps will be given an op
portunity Thursday afternoon at the
armory to learn some practical ideas
and facts along this line.
Miss Grace Taylor, who has
been connected with the Salem schools
as a nurse, will give a leetnre-talk on
this timely subject. The general-aim is
to educate the women so that they can
do all the nursing in their own families
and thus release the trained nurses for
work overseas.
At the meeting of the Aid society of
the Woman's Relief Corps last Thurs
day, much of tho work outlined for the
afternoon was accomplished. Beside one
quilt that was donated the women, fin
ished one eomfurt and pieced a large
number of blocks for another quilt. Lat
er in the afternoon, refreshments were
served by Mrs. Norma Tcrwilliger, Mrs.
Mary Cooke, Mrs. Hannah Higgcns and

Lighthouse " Gassed."
Washington, Aug. 13. Gassing of an
American light-house by a German sub
marine confirmed expectations of naval
officers here today that the Germans
sooner or later would make some spec
tacular flispiny on the const. No mili
tary advantage can result from such
attacks, is the one against the Smith
island light off the ivorth Carolina
coast Saturday, but the Germans evi
dently hoped to terrorize by such
methods. Sinking of fishing shipg off
the New England coast is part of this
campaign of frightfulness.
In mukiug their gas attack on the
Smith Island light house, which injured
six men, none fatally, the Germans are
believed to have" used a new form of
mustard gas.' Official reports to the
navy department state that three large
oil spots, each over an acre in extent,
were observed an it is believed the
gas was generated from this oil. The
attack luHtcd nearly an hour.

With The American Airmen In France
July 10. (By Mail.) A sausage straf
ing party is about as much tar. as a real
Hun fight anions a bunch of aviators.
Our last one was a decided success. We
followed the plan of scaring Heinle to
death," said Eddie Kickenbacker, all
American aco and erstwhile auto racer.
-'This was aa organized Btrafing party
and was extra on our bill along the
front. We did it voluntarily, and for
the fun of it. Ita wasn't exactly work.
"We organized the strafing party in
to two groups. One started ont early,
and got a high altitude by flying back
and forth twenty minutes or more bo
fore the second group started. That
first group was the strafing party.
men the second party went up and
crossed the lines at a low altitude. The
Germans were evidently surprised. Their
astouiskinefnt turned into amazement
when the low-flying group of Americans
began doing stunts right over the Ger
man guns, loops, slide-loops aud all safe
stunts.
"It was as big an insult as the Ger
man mind could stand,and they turned
loose with a vengeance. Black puffs
were all around us, but we kept on with
motors at full speed, diving, looping,
and making them still madder.
"Meanwhile the group which went up
tirst, crossed the lines at a high altitude
with motors shut off, gliding along.
They were unnoticed on aceount of the
racket of the motors of the stun group.
and succeeded jn getting positions above
halt a dozen balloons before Henue was
the wiser.
"Then they dived, each man straight
lor a balloou,Bhooting as he came, the
guns being loaded with incendiary bul
lets.
"Out of every sausage there came an
observer hanging on a parachute and
tne inackiueg on the ground frantically
hauled in the boehe sausages. The whole
flock of American planes sped across
tne lines, having cleaned the sector ot
German balloons with one general
uive.
Heinie won't forget that littlo sur
prise party for a while. As a general
rule the German archies are more to
scare you than to bring you down." It is
the shots from an opponent that are
most dangerous.
We havo become used to havina
them pass around us, and a gimper usu
ally isn't scared by puffs around linn or
the explosions though machine gun bul
lets from a German piquing' paity are
no joke. - ......
"There is oiio gimper in the crowd
who is the most punished of us all. He
never fails to draw fire, for some reason
or other. He has rather poor eyesight,
and can't see tho boches in time. As a
result they're always piquing on him.
"One day he came down with seven
bullet holes in his fuselage, and another
through his boot. Another nicked his
rudder controls. When he landed, he
jumped out of his plane and hopped
around like a chicken to see what dam
ago was done the plane, thinking noth
ing about himself.
"Jus then an alert came in. He
jumped in his plane in a jiffy aud shout
ed: 'Let me at 'cm, I "11 get 'em, the
sons of boches." Then he was off in a
minute and drove the Germans home,
but not until he had some more Gerniau
bullets pluuted in his machine.
"It takes courage of a special sort to
stauu the archies aud bullets. Captain
Xoruiaa Hall, who is now a prisoner in
Germany was aa ideal aviator in this
respect. As the buys say, 'he wasn't
scared of hell."
"He was an idealist through and
through and when he was wounded serio
usly one time while flying at the Brit
ish front, he concluded that he owed
his life to the fact that the bullet was
not incendiary.
"After that he refused to use incen
diary bullets. He said he never wanted
to land a lot lie if he could not do it
fairly. One of his favorite games was
doing stunts to make the archies shoot
at him. He maintained it wasted valu
able ammunition, since it takes tiious
amis of shots to hit a plane."

to hitting something in the wa

the torpedo might have been
controlled by wireless, as has
been experimented with in this
