European War Causes
Fishing Fleet to LeaUe
By Associnted PresS

st. Pierre, Martinique, Aug. T.
delayed in transmission 1.-The out
break of the European war has caused
the withdrawal from this island of
nearly the entire French fishing fleet,
and many steam trawlers have re-
turned to Havre and Brest. Business
has been badly crippled as the bank
has refused to cash drafts and checks
on France.
Upon receipt of official advices that
hostilities had begun, the colonial gov
ernment sent two steam trawlers to
the fishing fleet on the grand banks to
order all vessels that were sufficiently
supplied with coal and provisions to
proceed to France Immediately.
Others which were brought back here
to refit, have been sailing for Brest
every few days. One trawler left yes
terday with two officers and 80 SOL
diers who had been stationed here.

Church Advertising.

Cedar Rapids Gazette: The
churches of Chicago are going to ap-
ply more modern business methods
to the church. Since advertising
pays in other lines of endeavor the
contention is that it ought to pay in
the religious field. The plan is to
raise about $4,000 to be used dur
ing the year by the churches in buy
ing display space in the daily news
papers. Hard headed business men
Will approve of this latest scheme
on the part of the various religious
bodies. The newspapers have given
columns Of their stock in trade to
the churches from time immemor-
ial and now the church has come
to the point where it believes that
turn about is fair play and proposes
spending some money with the
newspapers. Publishers will appre-
ciate the fact that they decided to
use space in the newspapers instead
of in street cars and on billboards.
1t showed long headedness on the
part of the prime movers, knowing
that the newspapers could give
them much more for their money
than the other forms of advertising.
Church advertising through the
press is not new. In many eastern
cities churches have paid for many
inches of display advertising to an
nounce their Sunday services and
paid attractions. 1t has always been
a source of wonderment to publish
ers why the church would pay good
money for everything else it needs
and yet overlook the advertising
columns of newspaper, expecting
to get enough free notices to meet
it's requirements.

Repeat Experiment Again at
Los Angeles.

Los Angeles, Cal, March TO-
Helen Keller, the deaf and blind
young woman, announced yesterday
that she firmly believed she had at
last heard a sound-the high note
of Singer Minnie Saltzman Stevens,
who sang for her several times.
Until yesterday, Miss Keller said
she was not certain that the vibra-
ton of the singers voice had made
an impression upon her dormant ear
drums, but that after series of ex-
periments, ending last night, she
was convinced that she was really
able to hear.
81 know now | can hear" she de-
clared yesterday, land I am so
happy"
Miss Keller left for short trip
to surrounding cities and will re-
turn Thursday to repeat the exper-
iment of listening to the singer
without the usual aid of her hand
upon mouth and throat.
