NAVAL UNIFORMS

Naval uniforms all the world over
pretty well are navy blue. The Brit.
ish fashion in this matter has been
the rule with marine people in gen
eral. That blue was ever selected
for the kings naval service was a
fortiutous happening. When in 1747
the question of uniform was being
considered, the color selected had
very likely to have been French gray
laced with silver. While the king
was still not quite decided he saw
the Duchess of Bedford In a riding
habit of blue faced with white and
enlivened with gold lace. 1t was a
revelation. Here, the king declared
was the uniform for his sea service
officers and no more was heard of
French gray. The navy took to blue
and every other navy has taken to
it since. Pail Mall.

WORLDS OLDEST CITY

Iconium or Konia, as 1t is better
known today, in Asia Minor, 300 miles
east of Smyrna, held by some archa.
elogists to be the Oldest city In the
world, derived its name from the ell,
kones, or images of mud, which, &C
cording to the ancient legend Of the
place were made by Prometheus and
Athena at the command of Jupiter,
who, after the great food. caused the
winds to blow upon the elkones, and
they became living men and wom-
en-. Thus, according to this tradi
ton, Iconium was the first place set
tlel after the flood.

CENSORSHIP AND THE WAR
CORRESPONDENT

When the war began, the news
censor and his big blue pencil were
very obvious. One could hardly tell
whether a dispatch was describing
the battle of Waterloo in 1915 or that
of Liege in 1914. AS the campaign
proceeded. the lid was lifted quite a
little. The world could see and hear
the clash of ArmagedIon. But last
week things seem to have frightened
down again.
II is perhaps taken for granted that
secrecy. Yet one can't help feeling
war correspondent performs Il
very important function, and one
that an armed force distinctly needs.
1t is the business of the trained mil
itary writer to present vivid picture
of the work OF the soldiers If the
preparation OF this account is left to
the press agents of the war offices,
all the color of the picture Is left
out. 1t becomes as pale and fiat as

TRAIN THE MIND

One reason why the majority OF
people lead such superficial lives Is
because their minds are not trained
to think deeply and broadly. They
do not go far enough into subjects to
get comprehensive view of them.

HIGHER RATES OF
INTEREST

An unusual incident In the finan
cial word happened the past week
when large block of New York City
per cent bonds were offered at par
1t was but very few years ago that
bond of this class sold to bring
only ~ per cent. The financial
wiseacres of that recent date pre-
dicted that interest rates would be
steadily falling. AS they saw it
there was such a surplus of loanable
capital that soon interest would be
about down to the English level OF
2 per cent for government secur
ity.
The rapid ascent of the interest
rate falsifed these predictions. Even
a year ago, the manager OF a large
and sound land proposition in Color.
ado was Offering per cent for mon
ey. A few years ago Eastern in
vestors were glad to get sound real

and six per cent. 1t is doubtful If
this company could borrow money
for 10 per cent today.
The low bond prices now prevail
ing are of course due in large meas
ure to the war. Yet, even II the
war were to close quite soon interest
rates might not fall very much. Half
of the business men of Europe could
not pay their debts without realiz.
ing on their securities. Our people
must take up the stocks and bonds,
that at the close of the war will flood
our market.
The effect of this change will be
far reaching. Municipalities will have
to pay much higher rates for money.
Making public improvements and pay.
ing for them in long term bonds will
be terrible costly proposition. The
pay as you go policy will be better
than ever. Railroads and public ser
vice corporations will have to offer
almost prohibitive interest rates on
engagements. Either the public will
have to pay higher charges, or it will
have to content itself without the i'm.
provements 1t desires.
But 1t is great day for the man
with dollar to invest.

MINERS CHEER THE RETURN OF
MOYER AND TANNER

Hancock, Mich, Jan. 9.-Rugged
miners, with willing hands, tenderly
lifted their wounded leader, Charles
H. Meyer, from the train upon his ar
rival in Calumet yesterday.
The sight of the labor leader
seemed to fill the mighty crowd of
strikers that lined the station with
new ambition.
Mover and Charles H. Tanner,
auditor of the Western Federation
of Miners, who was beaten and de-
ported with Meyer, arrived in Han
cock in the afternoon.
After an ovation from the union
men which lasted several minutes
they were placed in an automobile
and hurried to the. Scott Hotel, in
which the assault on Meyer and Tan
ner took place on Dec. 26. Sheriff
