PLATT NATIONAL PARK
OFFERS MINERAL BATHS
Report of Superintendent Shows That
It Is Increasing in
Popularity.

Persons who have been accustomed to
going to Europe for mineral baths and
who may not be able to do so again for
some time, owing to war conditions
there, will be interested in an annual
report just made public by the Depart
mert of the Interior which details the
growth in popularity and curative
properties of the springs in the Platt
National Park.
This park, which has a total of s4S
acres, extends in irregular form a dis
tance of three miles along Travertine
cree, and a portion Of Rock creek. Il

the number OF visitors, he reports, al
though the park has been given d

the submarines approach. The Ger
mans have sought to overcome this
disadvantage by the invention of a col
iaDSible periscope, which can be pushed
above the surface for the briefest re-
connoisance and lowered from sight
again, without making it necessary for
the torpedo boat to alter it's cruising
lever in order to envelop itself in COM
plete secrecy. The Germans for the
last four or five years have spoken of
submarines with considerable conf
dence, with the suggestion of having
several surprise innovations in this
sort of craft.
AT the beginning of the war Great
Britain's navy counted 100 submarines,
while the German navy counted thirty
nine. Yet, if the submarine proves as
fearful weapon as has been predicted
freely, both in Great Britain and in
Germany, this disparity of numbers
will not make so much difference, for
it is not submarine against submarine,
but rather. submarine against surface
craft, and, ii the submarines have the
best of it. Great Britain stands to lose
the most powerful fighting surface fleet
