SAYS MORGEN THAU

Lo1fdbn, Oct. 8.-The Times in a long article this morning giving details of the Armenian massacres, says:

WORDS HOUSEWIFE MEETS.
Electricity Has Language of Its Own Just Like Music, Printing and
 Other Sciences.

Electric terms seem to cause a lot of trouble. The householder scratches his head when he hears the electric man talk about volts, amperes, watts, kilo-. watts, and so on. We hear the milk man Speak Of pints and quarts, the. grocer of pounds and packages and the butcher of tender1oin and liver wurst De do not shy at these words because we knew them as children. If electricity were measured in the same terms as kerosene or water, coal or wood or blanks or trees we would use measurements we all know. But it isn't. It has to be measured differ entity.
 The terms, volts, amperes, watts, ohTns, are just simple, however, as some others one hears. Listen to the printer and. you hear him talking about ''ems,'' "makeovers,'' mats 'sgalleys'' and ..cuts.'' which ia this in. stance are different from ''7ats'' of tenderloin. The musician says ttc1ef,' motif ,' ..fortfssimo,'' and so on. The doctor is liable to tell you the baby has stRofdngaggainit or some other aI1ment that sounds worse Not long ago the "carburetor,'' ttransmission.'' induction coil'' and others terms came into our lives We have become accustomed to them. and there is nothing strange about them now
 So will electric terms soon be we'll known We can't see electricity, but we all know whatit is able to do. It may be measured exactly. It follows along wire just like water through pipe In electricity the quantity of the water flowing through the pipe would be called amperes. The speed it gains or the pressure which forces it through the pipe might be termed volts. The quantity and pressure of water flowing through pipe are measured by gallons; in electricity this measurement is called watts The term ki1owatt simply means 1000 watts. The term kilowatt hour means 1000 watts used for one hour. The housewife meets this term most ire qJentIy because the words kiIowatt hours appear in the bills for electricity This is the term in which the amount of current used to light lamps, make fans revo1ve, fry eggs, sweep the floors do a washing, get a meal and do gem eraI household chores is registered.

WOMAN IS FOUND DROWNED IN TUB
 IN BOSTON HOTEL

Boston, Oct. 8-The body of Mrs. Bowdoin B. CrowninshieId. wife of the well known designer of this city. was found in a bathtub filled with hot water in the Parker House early to- day. The cause of death, according to Medical Examiner George B. Mo Grath, was drowning. He expressed the opinion that it was accidental but said that an autopsy would be held later
 Mrs. Crowninshield, who had been shopping in the city went to the hotel late yesterday and ordered a room, registering as t.drs. Bowdoin.'' Early in the evening she ordered a light meal sent to her room. She was not seen alive after that.
 The discovery of the body was made when employees investigated a leak of water through the ceiling of the room below. It was found that the hot water had been left running and that the bathroom was full of steam. The body was badly sca1ded.
 As soon as the medical examiner had established the wonan's identity he notified MT. Crowninshield who was at Marblehead. MT. Crownin- shield said that his wife had not been suffering from any form of illness and he was convinced that her death was accidental.

JUDGE GARY, STEEL
 TRUST HEAD, BEGINS HIS
 SEVENTIETH YEAR TO-DAY

Judge Ebert Henry Gary, chairman of the United States. Steel Corporation the greatest industrial combination in the world. will begin his seventieth year today, having been born Oct 8, 1846, in wheaton, III. As a hard headed business man, who keeps his emotions under strict control, Judge. Gary's optimistic and hopeful fore casts of the future have been highly reassuring to American business in terests. The steel trust magnate, in all his recent public utterances,- has expressed the opinion that the busi- ness outlook for America is very bright. He believes that the United States will have a great and momen-l toIs role to play in the years follow ing the conclusion of the war. More over, he believes that good will come out of the evil into which Europe has been plunged, and that as a result of the conflict .'the doctrine of the divine right of kings will bedome only a recollectior1.'' Although the nations involved in the war will be terribly crippled,''' he believes they twill take a new start and in many respects new course. and will begin immediate ly to build on a better and f1rmer and more permanent basis for success and high achievement in everything that adds to national wealth, power. energy and enterprise He added: These. nations will not remain inac-. tive or Respondent or indifferent. We shall see the most active and per- sistent efforts to rebuild and extend and to succeed in the international race for supremacy that the world has ever witnessed
 Judge Gary gained his title by act ing as county judge of DuPage county, Illinois, for two terms. He Graduated from the University of Chicago in 1867 and returned to his native town of which he was elected the first mayor. After his service as a judge he hung out his shing1e in Chicago, where he practiced law for quarter of a century. He retired from his law practice seventeen years ago to become president of the Federal Steel
 Go. which he helped to organize. Later he joined with other steel mag mates in the organization of the Unit ed States Steel Corporation. At first responsibility was divided, but grad ualIy one man assumed control, and that man was Judge Gary. Under his control the corporation has be- come. the greatest in the history of industry and Judge Gary is the field
 marshal of an industrial army of some 200, 900 men.
