A meeting was held in the local
station by the public service COM

to placing an underpass under the
G. I. Ry. on the NATURALIZATION
highway, which was started last
summer and will be completed this
summer. The meeting lasted for
some time, but they arrived at no
conclusion as to where the pass will
be built but it will probably be in
the town of Morgan.

TWO DROWN At
N. STRATFORD

Two river drivers, Zgdy Koski of
Chelsea, Mass. ,and Frank Segwardh,
Prince Edward Island, were drowned
at CRANKY Dam, near North STRAIT
ford, Thursday, April %. while
working on the drive of the Con-
necticut Valley Lumber Co.
The two men, together wit h five
others, were precipitated in the
water when the logs hawled, :"
but their companions were rescued,
while Koski and Segwardh were car
ried under the huge timbers where
rescue was impossible.
The bodies were recovered shortly
afterwards and were found in
badly bruised condition, having
received terrible beating from the
logs.
The drowned men were unexperi-
enced and it is noticeable fact that
few old experienced drivers are on
the river this year, most of the
crew being young men recruited
from Berlin anc Bangor.
Koski's friends could not be efound
and he was buried in the Catholic
cemetery at Bloomfield, Father Quay
of Norton Mills officiating.

To the left is row of mail boxes. 1t is the
first, and, as you later decide, the only thing in
the building to remind you of other dwelling
places. Twenty names arc inserted in as many
mail boxes. You read the name of your friend,
the artist, and look for an elevator.
There is no elevator. You roam around in
the spacious lower hall, which is uncarpeted,
but spotlessly clean, and in its general out
lines recall your graded-school days. There is
a reason for this. Before the building housed
artists and machinery it was used for school
proposes.
So you decide to walk upstairs. You have
seen no one, you have heard no more noises
than might be expected in the art gallery Of
the library, and as you start to climb the broad
stairway, which looks as if it had been scrubbed
with warm water an hour before, feeling OF
peace enters your very soul.
You half expect to look up and find stained
glass window in such cathedral-like calm.

the laws of civilized warfare are restricted to
purely military operations. One Of the recent

shall be set adrift unless it is so constructed as
to become harmless in one hours time. his was
to allow pursued warship to cover her retreat
but at the same time strew no lurking death in
the path of neutral merchant ships. SO emphatic

GERMAN MINES IN NORTH SEA AGAINST

Referring to the German mines in the North
Sea, the British Admiralty issued this bulletin on
August %: "These mines do not conform to the
conditions of the Hague convention They do
not become harmless after a certain lapse of time
and they not laid i connection with any
definite military scheme, such the closing of a
military port or as distinct operation against an
invading fleet Rattle. do they appear to be scat
tered on the chance Of touching British warships

Entente inform neutral governments that they

have done so in order to pr re the way for in
demnity claims in any of their vesse' run
foul of the lurking death in the North Sea.
But British countermining in self-defence can
accomplish nothing. Her drifting mines would no
ironically cast back toward her own shores among
her own ships. Nature, which controls the tides -
the North Sea, respects Hague treaties no more
than do the men who sit snug and safe in the
naval base at Kiel and strew destruction over the
surface Of the sea.

AA5 German navy is able to lie safely be-
Wv hind its fortified base at Kiel and
spread death and destruction all over
the North Sea- Nature does the work. And
nature does not discriminate between British bat
tleshps and neutral merchantmen, any more than
the blind engines of destruction which she steers
toward their prey, friend and foe alike must feel
the fury of German melinite in drifting mines.
1t is by no means necessary to send German
mine laying ship to the English coast in
order to destroy vessels cruising there The
rortheastward set Of the Gulf Stream, along the
British Isles and the coast of Norway although
rarely greater than mile hour, is constant
enough to draw the water of the North Sea out
toward England. OF course, the tide of the North
Sea GIBBS and flows its own account just as
the tide in Delaware Bay OF New York Harbor,
but the ebb or outfowing tidal current predom-
mates always because the North Sea has the
Baltic to DRAIN and must deliver to the ocean the
water of all the rivers which empty in it, well
as those whose mouths lie along its own shores.
Add to this the constant influence of the Gulf
Stream and il will be clear that while drifting
mine will stand still at times even retrogress r
little to the east during strong flood tide, its
general progress is always toward the north OF
England.
THE AREA or SLACK WATER IN THE NORTH

Somewhere in the middle of the North Sea there
ia always an area of slack or dead water, around
which the ebb and food currents circulate, and
invariably floating bodies drawn into this
region exactly as driftwood accumulates in the
centre of a whirlpool On the ebb tide this area
moves steadily to the westward, while at about
halfway between tides another slack water centre
forms TO the northwest Of Helgoland, draws into
its limits fresh supply of floating mines, and
