The problem which the troops at field headquarters sought to solye and in which aeroplanes and trucks were used for the first time invoived an at- tempt to ford the Casas Grandes river at one of three points. These fords, three miles apart were defended by a regiment of infantry at war strength, a battery of field artillery and a squad- ron of cavalry. The defenders also had the use of a truck train of 27 cars. Each side had one aeroplane. Flying about 2,500 feet above the earth, a distance considered ple since the forces had no anti-aircraft guns, Capt. Davenport Johnson, for the defenders, was able to follow the movements of the cavalry from the moment they left their base twelve wmiles from the river, to the point where a squadron was detached to make a feint at the south ford while the mhin body dashed toward the north passage. His work-enabled the commanding general to mass his in- fantry at the ford threatened by using the motor trucks. The aero scout for the attackers, Capt. Maxwell Kirby, had a more diffi- cult task. His objectives were screen- ed by the trees along the river. Move- ments of troops also were Jnore or less confused with those of organizations In headquarters camp, which backed the fords. In spite of this he was able to locate the artillery where it had been concealed under the trees and to fix devnitel ythe points where the main 1 bodies of infantry were posted. Both aviators were in the afr, four hours with only a few landings to rest them. Messages were sent by means of parachutes and smoke bs. The task of piloting an aeroplane In pi-fiy Rir, obferving and writing messages taxed the pilots to the utmost. At one time there was considerable ex- citement for i twas thought the air- men.were .staging fight above the clouds. The impression was the re- sult of the closeness of the machines and the fact that bohth were firing emoke bombs.

'S MEETING. Dear Social ~Cornerites: Having been asked to write about our gather- ing will say$ there were about forty Sisters' gathered to enjoy the social time and. exchange ideas and partake of a most delicious dinner of chicken pie, that only the Scotland Sisters know how to /so deliciously prepare, with mashed potatoes, different salads, scalloped Potato, nickles, sandwiches, :a.kes and pies, fruit, candy and cof- eo. The Social Corner color was in evi- dence on the table and about the room. 'ore dimmer a good number were with their gift-making, or busy showing others in a helpful way how to make things, After dinner each receivéd a Christmas gift from the dépths of a huge, yellow-trimmed basiet. That was certainly a drawing feature and proved amusing and pleasing. Selinda gave a recitation: “I Don't Like to; Talk About- My Neighbors,” that was greatly enjoyed. C. E. S. Read “Aunty P’s Dough- nuts;” and a letter of greeting was read from Disna. ‘We were glad to"welcome new writ- ers and missed those who were not there. Our hearts go out in deep sym- pathy for Azalea; and we shall great- Iy miss her pleasant face and associa- tion with us as she goes to a distant state. The time soon came when it was necessary for us to leave for home; but with a feeling of appreciation for all our hosteSses did to make the day 50 pleasant for us—one long to te re- membered—one grand success. At our next meeting, the 10th of January, the hostesses will bé Enoch Arden, Amy, _Stoney, Wiltwick and Golden Rod. Trottie: We did enjoy your chatty letter. Think Huldy must be having things her own way, being alone on the field. M. and H.:» How silent! Are you as busy as ever entertaining? I hoped to see vou at our gathering. I wish you all a Merry Chri#tmas and hope the season will bring you ell your hearts desire. THEODA. TIMELY RECIPES FROM PAULA.

CHEERFUL SENTIMENTS FROM DIANA. Dear Social Corner Sisters: Another year has rolled around and €aristmas is with us again. I wish all the Sis- ters far ahd near a Christmas greet- Ing. Many things we tire of, and they grow old and become passe, but not Christmas, for its observance contin- ues and we enjoy each year the send- ing of messages of good cheer and Merry Christmas to everyone. Many employ themselves, their money and time in helping those who are less fortunate than themsclves; and those whose pathways have been strewn with trouble, losses, carcs and enxieties during the year, All take pleasure in making the younger and older members of falhl"e! so happy that these days will be so impressed upon their minds that th:y will serve as pictures which will be before ys as long as we can recail the g::,n;ory of happy bygone Christmas ys. ‘We should bear in mind that Christ- mas giving does not mean rizh aad expensive gifts. Many of moderate means and even those without morey can make gifts, for kind words and deeds are often gifts most needed, for 'tis the spirit in which we give, aut I'the cost of the gift, that wucuu the treart of the one who receives.

When I entered our place of gathering Wednes(laa‘ my eyes glanced over its ntifully spread table, I thought the high cost of [living had surely taken a big drop. I thank the hostess for .my* very pleasant entertainment. That chicken pie was worth going miles just to have a taste; and that mince pie tasted just like the mince pie Grandma used to make! And there was such a good lot of other things—cream and scol- loped potatoes, salads, cake, doughnuts and cookies—round and square—be- sides fruit. A feast good enough for ® queen. : There were tew I *new. and a good many strange faces. I trust to be- come better acq'x!nted with all our new members. e prize I drew was very pleasing.
