S. A German airplane was brought down in the British lines this week after a bat tie lasting nearly an hour. The next morning a German machine came hovering over the same spot and manoeuvered for a position. It was promptly attacked, but returned to the German lines after dropping overboard something which was seen to fall near an evacuated village. Two British soldiers, who were sent to find out what had been dropped, returned with a beautiful wreath nearly three feet in, diameter.

To the wreath was attached a note asking the British airmen to place. it on. the grave of the dead pilot. "The officer you have buried was my brother," said the note, "I spent six happy years working In a London bank. I know you honor the dead.

Please do this little service for me." The wreath was deposited as requested on the grave of the dead German airman.
