SAYS MANY GERMAN
SUBMARINES LOST
OFFICIAL REPORT TO U. S. GOV
ERNMENT ESTIMATES SO TO
70 OF THEM DESTROYED.

Washington.--Grea Britain has dis
covered and put into effective opera
tion means of combating the subma-
rine which, according to official re-
ports to the United States govern
ment, already have resulted in a loss
estimated at between 30 and 70 Ger
man submarines The reports de-
clare the British Admiralty confident,
ly believes it has crushed the German
submarine campaign.
New methods of offense and defense
that may revolutiOnize naval warfare
have been adopted and high British
naval officers believe that unless the
effectiveness Of the submarine is in.
creased, it will longer constitute
the menace that 1t has to commerce
and battle fleets
While the greatest secrecy is
thrown around the means employed,
the United States government has in.
formation concerning the principal
methods which have been successful.
in meeting the German war zone cam
paign. A submarine telephone has
been developed by which it is possible
by sound by observation boats Of sta
tions planted off shore connected with
points in the mainland.
For the capturing Of craft whose
presence has not been detected or even
suspected, the governments reports
describe how huge nets have been
spread broadcast around battleships
and near steamer lanes.
Armed patrols watch and when the
floats holding the nets disappear be-
meath the water showing that sub
marine has become entangled, the pa.
trolls congregate at the place and when
the victim comes to the surface to dis
entangle itself, it is destroyed by gun
fire or captured.

Unconquerable.

The habit OF never being whipped,
OF always keeping up the nght-that
is the quality Of the great leader. The
man who never admits defeat is the
man the world has to take into ac.
count Time and again the foes he is
lighting may think they have him
down, but before they know it he is
on his feet sounding the advance. Such
a man molds events, He helps create
the new heavens and the new earth
OF the prophets vision. A mighty
force Of the universe is the unconquer.
able soul!

an expenditure OF more than $4,000,
are under way at the State Hospital
for Nervous Diseases, as provided for
by the $4,000 appropriation by the
asst Legislature. The Improvements

urovement is in the bakery. An ad-
dition is being built, which will make
the room 80 by Sc feet A new oven
is to be installed and the old one re-
built, thus doubling the capacity. An
electric bread mixer and an electric
cake mixer also will be installed

the new laundry is practically com-
pleted. Several new pieces of ma
chinCry have been installed and Il

fitted for sleeping quarters for negro
employees. The new hospital ward for

firmary building is practically COM
plete. The first floor had not been
used. Some excavation was done, a
concrete floor put in, the walls rebuilt
and the interior finished in white with
OAK woodwork. The ward will accom-
modate 100 single beds An improve
ment in the ward is a bathtub, which
can be filled in II seconds and emptied

in partitions considerable saving was
made The improvement cost only
approximately $1,000, according to T..
!. Raney, a member of the Board OF
Control of the State Charitable Insti-
tutions.
