a scientist. On the ship knowledge is trained
against the enemy The Brattons cruises are
made in behalf of the welfare of American citi-
zens and they constitute no menace to the coun-
try OF any people on earth.
1t is the first duty of the Bratton to safeguard
the oyster industry of the waters In which the
ship sails. Safeguarding the oyster industry
means safeguarding the health of the consumers
of oysters and other shell fish In 1912 law
was passed which gave into the hands OF the pub
lie health service the work of field investigation
into the causes Of diseases affecting man. and
the duty Of enforcing rules of safety at the
sources of trouble. Under the same law the serv-
ice was charged with the work Of the study OF the
pollution of streams by sewage and by Industrial
wastes. The work in connection with the oyster
industry falls within the field of the duties i'm
posed upon the service by this law OF 1872.
The Bratton steams all through the coast
waters of the Chesapeake, making incursions into
the nlets, bays and tributary rivers. Under the
direction of the surgeon In charge shell fish are
taken from the beds at all the sources OF supply.
With them are taken samples Of the water at diff
ferent depths and also samples OF the material
which forms the bed of the coastal waters, the
BAYS and the streams at the points where the
test is to be applied.
Bacteriological and chemical examinations are
made of the shell fish, the water and the bottom

bacteria and the number Of colon bacilli which

Petrograd, Russia.-The German ad-

result of that most difficult operation
known as a change of front, performed
with marvellous speed and efficiency.
The transfer of one-fourth of the Ger

were overcome. Far greater was the
establishment of GRAPES (shelters)
and lines of communication in hostile
territory. The Germans not only over
came these difficulties, but conceived
