SUBMARINE KEPT
HELP AWAY FROM
SINKING VESSEL
French Cruiser Hears IS. O.
S." Calls from Leon GAM
BETA But Is Bottled Up"-
Admiral Commits Suicide.

PARIS, April 29.-When the French
armored cruiser Leon Gambetta was
sunk off Otranto Italy. by the Aus
trian submarine. U-5, with the loss of
about $50 members of her crew, in
cluding Rear Admiral Fenet. the
French cruiser Jules Ferry. a sister
ship, was only so miles away and
picked up the IS. .. s" calls Of the
sinking ship But the Jules Ferry
could not go to the aid Of the tor
pedOed cruiser because of the pres
ence of another Austrian submarine
which was maneuvering TO attack
her. This underwater craft chased
the Jules Ferry for two hours, trying
vainly TO launch a torpedo. but was
finally driven off by the fire Of the
cruisers guns.
The construction at Pola Of 10 sub
marines, the parts of which had been
sent to the Austrian naval base from
Germany, has apparently been the
signal for the launching Of a vigorous
submarine war in the Adriatic sea and
adjacent waters against the French
men-of-war that have been operating
there. The presence OF many Aus
tro-German submarines have been re-
ported by Italian ships during the
past three days
Admiral Suicides.
The German admiralty has contin-
ually insisted upon Austria beginning
submarine war in the Adriatic sim
liar TO that which German has been
carrying on in the North sea. Dis
patches received today from Brindisi
where survivors from the Leon Gam
betto were landed. convey details of
dramatic a2d tragic incidents which
accompanied the destruction of the
French armOred cruiser. Just before
the Leon Gambetta took her final
plunge, Rear Admiral Fenet sum
moned his staff To the bridge where
he addressed them. saving he would
die a sailors death and never desert
his ship. Then he drew a revolver
and shot himself in the temple his
body falling at the feet OF his officers.
The members of the crew behaved
with marked gallantry throughout the
10 minutes thta interviewed between
the time the ship was torpeGoed and
the moment she sank beaneath the
waves. Sailors who were aroused from
their sleep stood half dressed at atten-
ton and shouted ''vive La France" as
the vessel went down.

1t Isn't Your TOwn-It's YOu.

1t Isn't Your TOwn-It's You.
Ir you want to live in the kind of a
town,
Like the kind Of a town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in a grip.
And start on a long, long like.
You'll only find what you left behind,
For there's nothing that's really
new,
It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your town.
1t isn't the town-it's you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead.
When everyone works and nobody
shirks,
You can raise a town from the dead.
And if while you make your personal
stake,
Your neighbors can make one. too.
Your town will be what you want to
see.
1t isn't the town-it's you.
If you want to live in a town that IS
clean
In politics, business and smoke,
You needn't try to the passer-by
To make of your town a joke;
But give your heart and brain and
hands
To helping your town along
In every cause that will make the
laws,
Establish the right from wrong.
If you want a place for music and art.
And speakings and rallies and plays.
Then put your thought on the things
YOU ought,
AND think Of the means and WAYS.
Then get to work from boss to clerk.
And remember when you do,
The motto the league has given us all:

If wheat remains at it's. present
high figure or continues to rise in
price, and if there is a corresponding
increase in the price of bread, scien-
lists in the department suggest that
the ordinary household will find It adj,
vantageous to eat more potatoes and
less bread. With potatoes at 60
cents a bushel, 10 cents worth or 10
pounds, will give the consumer a
little more actual nourishment than
two 1-pound loaves Of bread at s
cents each. The protein and Eat are
present in appreciably larger amounts
in the bread, but the potatoes will be
found to furnish more carbohydrates
and more heat units.
Carbohydrates (starch) contribute
greatly to the energy value of any
diet, and since potatoes are rich in
these families that wish to expend
their money to the best advantage are
recommended to consider whether
they can not make a more extended
use Of them They are easy to cook
and when prepared in different ways
can be made to lend variety to the
winter diet when green vegetables are
hard to obtain. Like other foods
relatively rich in carbohydrates,
however, potatoes should be eaten
with foods correspondingly rich in
protein, such as milk, meat, eggs,
etc., and with foods like butter, cream
and meat fat to supply the fat that
the body needs.
Under normal conditions in Eu-
rope and America potato ranks next
to bread as a carbohydrate food. IL
prices change sufficiently to make it
desirable from a financial point OF
view, there is no scientific reason
why potatoes should not be substi-
tuted to a great extent for bread. In
addition to the potato, like many
fruits and vegetables, helps to neu-
tralize any acid condition in the
body. This is another reason for its
being in combination with meat, fish,
and other animal foods.

PENSIONS AND WAREFARE.
United States Has Paid Out Over
$4,000, 600, 900.
From the Washington Star.

From the Washington Star.
European nations at war have from
time to time made estimates Of the
~stupendous costs involved, but none
of them has gone far enough to figure
what the probable cost to the people
In years to come will be if pensions
are to be paid to veterans and to wild
ows and other dependents. Statistics
Of cost up to the present have includ-
ed only those expenses which are be-
ing incurred as the "a progresses.
While it is out Of the question for
anyone in the United States to make
any estimates Of the amount Of O
that will be necessary in those Euro
pean countries for pensions, it is very
evident that If Great Britain, Ger
many, France, Russia and the other
countries involved attempt to treat
their veterans, widows and other de-
pendents as generously and as fairly
as has the United States, the burden
to be carried by Europe in the future
will be colossal.
Since July l, 1890, up to the pres
ent time, the United States has paid
in pensions and the cost Of mainten-
ance Of the pension system, $4,000
600. o From the earliest period of
the country's history up to 1865, be-
fore the Civil Wars pensions began,
pensions cost a little less than $780,
000, 0
Although veterans Of the Civil War
are dying now at the rate of more
than $4,000 a year. and have been
for some time, according to the Com
missioner of Pensions, United States
last year paid out in pensions, so
years after the close Of the Civil War,
more money by s12, 0O0,O 900 than ever
paid out in any other year. The total
payment for pensions for the year
amounted to $174,171 $50, an increase
over the preceding year Of $21. OOO,-
600. There are today on the rolls the
names of $50. 294 persons.
The names stricken from the rolls
during the year by reason Of death,
remarriage, limitation and failure to
claim for three years was 59,S52, but
new legislation by Congress added
19,75S names to the roll. The re-
cords show that half a million Of the
persons whose names are on the rolls
served either in the army or the navy
of the United States, the remaining
500 600 persons being widows and de-
pendents. 1t is Of interest to note
that at the close Of the year the names
Of 1919 WIDOWS of soldiers of the War
Of 1912 were on the rolls. The last
surviving soldier Of the Revolutionary
War died April 8, 1869.
