ALTUS COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
Are You a Member? Your Neighbor I»—Next Week The
Names of Ail Who Signed Loyalty Pledges
Will Be Published
, The Altus Council of Defense was or-
ganized Saturday with Dr. W. K. San-
derson, chairman; Arthur Ingle vice
chairman and Jack Bonner, secretary
and treasurer. Plans were immediately
set on foot for a membership drive,
which were carried out Monday with
a red tag day, when every citizen was
asked to renew his loyalty pledge, and
contribute 25 cents for the cause of
liberty. An active campaign was con-
ducted all day over the city, and at
8:30 p. m. an immense audience as-
sembled at the Baptist church and join-
ed in a patriotic demonstration with a
program of inspiring music and address.
Before the program, the membership
canvass was carrie'd on in the en4eavor
to enlist every person over the age of
10 as a loyal citizen, actively interested
in aiding the government to carry out
every measure proposed for the suc-
cessful prosecution of the war.
The program opened with the audi-
ence joining in singing America, after
which Rev. Lee of Frederick led in
prayer for the protection of the boys
in service, for the success of our arms
overseas, and for the guidance of the
people in every measure necessary for
their support and furtherance.
A flag drill by girls of the Washing-
Ion school was a splendid number, ami
a number by girls of the Woodrow
Wilson school in which the flags of
France. Kngland. Belgium, Red Cross
and "Old Glory" appeared while na-
tional anthems of each country were
played on the victrola, was heartily
applauded. Bettie Osborne and Dona-
belle Barr sang patriotic songs, and
Mr«. Wayne McCray sang a Hoover-
ized version of a popular melody en-
titled "When you come to the end of
a Meatless Day." The Altus Male
Quartet sang "The Battle Hymn of
the Republic" and the war version of
"Over There." Miss Eva Kimbcll read
a selection in negro dialect. Rev.# J.
(J. Winsetl made a splendid address
on "Our Justification in This War,"
and paid his respects in what might
be called "red-headed" terms to the
slacker and any and all who are not
engaged, heart and soul, in the war for
humanity.
The program ended with the singing
by Miss Kenan of the familiar "Keep
the Home Fires Burning." and audi-
ence joining in the chorus.
. The Loyalty campaign will continue
through the week. About 1500 signers
have been secured, 2,000 being the goal
desired. $334 have been contributed.
One half this amount will go into the
treasury of the Jackson County Council
of Defense, the other half to the Altus
Council ami is used for whatever is
needed to conduct a campaign of edu-
cation along the proposed government
measures, sfnd to provide the necessary
supplies for putting those measures into
execution, such as the Loyalty pledges
used in the recent campaign, and tin-
bread cards soon to be issued for the
promotion of wheat saving, also for the
assistance of any needy families of
soldiers in service.

AEROPLANE FROM CAMP DONIPHAN

Thousand* View The Graceful Flight and Are Thrilled as Air-
ship Loops the Loop in Mid Air and Drops
5000 Feet to Earth
Altus was visited by an aeroplane men and children swarmed over fences
from the school of aviation observers
at Camp Doniphan Monday, and its
flight was viewed with the greatest in-
terest by thousands of persons.
Two planes left the camp about 2:15
p. m., after circling the post for ten or
fifteen minutes and getting their height.
One was a fast war plane sailing at a
height of 5000 feet, and at Snyder the
pilot had engine trouble and was forced
to land, crippling his propeller and
necessitating a plane being sent over
from the field to his assistance. The
other was a heavy war plane, which
came oh to Altus at a height of 8.000
feet or about one mile and a half. It
and all intervening obstacles, includ-
ing the Boy Scouts who had been com-
missioned to hold back the crowd, all
determined to get a good view of this
greatest invention of the age. But no
sooner did they reach the machine than
the Camp Fire Girls encircled the plane
and hurriedly Constructed ^a rope fence
around it for its protection. The crowd
however, soon swept away this' fem-
inine defence and surrounded the ma-
chine, eagerly examining its every de-
tail, to the disgust of the pilot who
came to town to phone to camp, and
who was obliged to spend some half
hour in tightening up ropes and going
lompanied by Capt. King, and after
reaching Altus, still flying at a height
of some 8.000 feet, they turned one
somersault and started on a spiral dip.
At this stage of the maneuver, Capt.
King s stomach became "riled up", forc-
ing Lt. Kinney to steer his plane in a
more regular fashion. After circling
the fair grounds as a bird searching out
the ground beneath him, he suddenly

less than a disastrous defeat. It was:
the first phase of the battle in his des-
perate attempt to capture the line of
hills held by the allies which endanger
his possession of Mont Kemmel. The
ijcrmans have probably used thirteen
divisions from the east of \pres south-
ward in line of battle, with two more
northward, and the violence of the gun
fire was never greater or more unceas-
ing at any period of the war.
The successful allied defense made
the day the bloodiest yet experienced
by the enemy, as attack after attack
was smashed by artillery and infantry
fire. The Germans had already suffer-
ed heavily on Sunday when their con-
centration of troops were caught and
shattered by gunfire. Their waves yes-
terday were mowed down and the Brit-
ish wings and French center neither
bent nor broke.
The situation seems to be one of the
entente high command deciding once
more to make a stand after having
forced the Germans to use up tens of
thousands of men in fighting their way
desperately forward as far as they
have. The decision inaed. the stand
was taken, and the Germans were stop-
ped, as they have been previously on
other fields since the great offensive
opened March 21.
All the evidence points to the prob-
ability that the t.ermans suffered well
night the heaviest casualties of any
day or the fightinR on the northern
front, as wave aHer wave of the at-
tacking forces was mowed down by ar-
tillery and infantry fire. They were
