BOMBING BERLIN IS
PROGRAM PLANNED
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29. The joint
air offensive of the United States and
her allies is to be developed on gigantic
lines. Bombing Berlin is only one
phase of it. Other phases are under
stood to be the bombing of every im
portant industrial city in western Ger
many, so that the Teuton may have a
"dose of his own medicine."
The moral effect of bombing Berlin is
regarded as great. Germany thought
air raids were very terrorizing and
hence tried them out on London and
Paris. It is believed from the wails
she set up at recent Allied raids against
her she will be agonized if Unter den
Linden and Wilhelmstrasse feel the
might of the raider.
Major General Kenly is scouring the
nation for aerial observers. General
Pershing has . urgently asked them.
While there are plenty of pilots, the ob
servers are scarce. Men of intelligence,
daring and good physique are needed.

THEIR HEADS LIKE DOGS
By United Press
LONDON. Oct. -5, by mail. Posted
at all the kennels of the army is the
story of two French war dogs.
It was during the German offensive,
and the dogs had been sent out for a
message. Their keeper stayed in the
rear of the retreating French army till
the last possible moment, waiting for
the dogs to return with the message.
When they returned there was no wTay
of escape except by swimming the
Marne.
The man could not swim, but the
dogs could. He chained them eogether,
and clung to the chain, and so they gut
him safely across under heavy fire.
When those dogs become proud fath
ers, the- will have their answer ready
it the pups ask them, "What did you do.

HIS EFFORTS FOR COUNTY
SHOULD BE REWARDED
In choosing a representative in the
upper house of the legislature, the vot
ers of. Ormshy county should be guid
ed by past performances as a" guaranty
of the future. W. P. Harrington. Dem
ocratic nominee for senator, comes be
fore the people with a record that is i
state-wide, and his work for the inter
ests of Ormshy county will long endure.
Progressive, alert, and having the ex
perience, he is well fitted to participate
in the important legislation of the next
two years. In three sessions of the leg
islature he has been identified with all
the leading questions and has occupied
important places on committees where
the real work was done.
As a citizen he has taken an import
ant part in everything calculated to ad
vance the welfare of this community.
As a legislator he has been at the front
on all the big questions, and has made
a study of all the questions bearing on
the welfare of the county and state. His
record will stand the closest scrutiny,
and should insure the support of all who
place conscientious service above party
