A planter in South Carolina writes
that he once saw hawk dart into a
flock Of pigeons. but miss his strike.
The pigeons scattered and the hawk
singled out one for pursuit The pigeon
rose to great height, always keeping
above the hawk to prevent it from
striking When the pigeon got d.
rectly over an old horsepower gin
house it suddenly darted by the hawk
and came groundward like shot. In a
line few feet from the side OF this
ginhouse The hawk pursued, and like
two streaks they came down. Eight
feet from the ground the pigeon swerv-
ed aside under the ginhouse. The hawk
dashed headlong 10 its death on the

There is one safe, dependable treat

Ask any druggist for q a5c bottle of
zemo and apply it as directed Soon
yon will find that pimples. black heads,

STEPHENS ADVOCATES
TWO GREAT FLEETS
California Congressman De.
cIares Country Will Not Be
Satisfied With Only One.

The Government of the United states
will be obliged in the near future to
maintain two great fleets one In the At
lantic and one I'm the Pacific, according
to Congressman Stephens of California,
Of the House Committee on Naval AZ
fairs.
Mr.. stephens today said the country
would not continue to be satisfied with
the present plan of maintaining one
great fleet in the Atlantic.
On paper, there Is both Pacific fleet
and an Asiatic fleet. But neither OF
these Is a great and complete battle
ship fleet, with smaller craft, such as
In the Atlantic.
The theory that the building OF the
Panama canal would make 1t so easily
possible for the battleshps TO go from
one ocean to the other and that single
fleet would do the service OF two, In the
opinion of Mr.. Stephens. Will not be
borne out. One evidence OF this IL tht
fact that the slides in Culebra Cut arc
interfering so seriously with the tralnG
through the canal that the plah 10 sena
a great armada of battleships through
the canal to the Pacific, to attend the
San Francisco exposition, 1t not likely
to be carried out.
1t Is clear that in the present uncer-
tainty of canal traffic no reliance can
ment of the drcadnaughts of the ATTAIN
tic fleet from one ocean to the othef,
but further excavation In Culebra cut
may remedy this situation.
But apart from the possibllitleS OF
quick transit of the battleshipS through
the canal there Is another factor to be
considered Mr.. Stephens in the hear
ir gs before the House Naval Commit
tee compelled the Navy Department Of
ficials to admit in effect that In a time
of public danger il would not satisfy the
public to have the big battleships as
semb!ed in one ocean, leaving one side
of the country unprotected. Mr..
Stephens got Secretary Daniels himself
to admit that he would not feel com
Portable on the Atlantic coast in time
of war II the fleet were on the Pacific
coast.
TT seems to me-" said Mr.. stephens.
| that this practically tells the story.
We need a fleet on both coasts
Mr.. Stephens intends to do what he
/ can to promote the idea of an adequate
| fleet on both coasts.
ed for the Canal Zone to consider its
! defenses That these are inadequate
! in the light of European war develop
ments Is believed by many army and
navy men and the disposition of navy
officers is to feel that the canal will not
| be safely protected until ample pro-
visions are made for feet protection as
we'll as for land defersos. \ good sup
! ply of submarines for the canal region
is advocated by many naval officers.
