FRIDAY MORNING. DECEMBER
Echo of Sound.

An echo Is a sound reflected from a
distant surface. Sound Is produced by
waves or pulses of the air, and when
those waves come in contact with
cliff or wall or other opposing surface
they are reflected like light or heat,
and the returning waves cause repe-
tition Of the sound. The word echo is
Of Greek origin According to ancient
mythology, 1t was the name Of noun
tain nymph, daughter of the air and
the earth. Echo was one of Juno's at
tendants, but her loquacity displeased
Jupiter, 80 she was deprived Of the
power of speech by Juno and permitted
to answer only when she was spoken
to. Afterward Echo fell in love with
beautiful youth named Narclssus and
was changed into stone, which still
retained the power Of voice. Milton
personifles her thus:
Sweet Echo. sweetest nymph, that liv'st
unseen
Within thy airy shell,
By slow Meanders margent green,
Canst thou not tell me of q gentle pair
That likest thy Narcissus are?

Tho Arch.

The consensus of opinion among the
learned is to the effect that the arch
was invented by the Romans. Some
claim that Archimedes of Sicily was
the inventor, while there are others
who would make 1t to be of Etrlirinn
origin, but there can be no doubt about
the fact that the Romans were the first
to apply the principle to architecture.
The earliest instance of its use Is in the
case of the Cloaca Maxlma, or greatest
sewer, OF Rome. built about 5sS d. G.
by the first Of the Tarquln line OF kings,
a work which is regarded by the his
torians as being one Of the most stu
pendous monuments Of antiquity. Built
entirely without cement, 1t Is still doing

The name "Dardanelles," which one
girl baby bears. Is more musical than
some geographical names with which
children are burdened. Mrs. Andrew
Lang tells OF n family where the ba-
bies were named after the places
where the father happened to BIO when
he heard Of their births. He being a
courier, there were a st. Petersburg
and u Naples, Kattegat and Skagerrah
were the twins, while the only daugh-
ter was named Vienna.
Another curious geographical name
Is recorded In the Souvenirs du Che
Waller de Cussy." In 1920, when at
tached to the French embassy Mt Ber-
lin, he met Countess Bernstorff, who
had been christened America because
she was born there during the war of
Independence, her father at that time
being In command Of Hessian regl-
ment.-Pall Mall Gazette.

RUNNING A BLOCKADE.
Rules That Usually Govern This Ex.
citing Wartime Sea Game.

Rules That Usually Govern This Ex-
citing Wartime Sea Game.
Although their operations are drastic
and unpleasant, blockades and block
ade runners have always been among
the most picturesque and dramatic as
poets OF great war.
Blockades can be applied either to an
enemy's town or fortress or to port
or series Of ports on an enemy's coast.
1t has, In a naval sense, two effects.
1t brings pressure to bear on an enemy
within their own gates and aims at
preventing the import or export of pro-
visions, articles of trade, ammunition
or. re-enforcements. 1t also makes it
unlawful for neutrals to trade with
those particular ports.
As a consequence, certain precau-
tions are usually observed. 1t is. for
Instance, held that for valid blockade
not only should a state Of war exist,
/ but that the blockading party should
maintain a force sufficient to prevent
+. access to the blockaded port or, OF all
. events, powerful enough to render the
passage Of relief ship extremely haz-
ardous. Further, it is essential that
neutral nations should have proper no
tice of the existence Of the blockade
either by official notice or by warning
given to neutral vessels on their ar
rival outside the prohibited zone.
Nations differ as to what constitutes
an effective blockade. All countries
however, agree that blockading forc'
may seize any vessel with its cargo
trying to trade with blockaded por
and can send it home for condemna
ton. Even If vessel succeeds IL
breaking through a blockade it can b'
pursued and, If possible. captured.
A vessel may. for the sake of human
ity-suppose her crew is starving o
she Is in danger of sinking-be allowe'
to enter blockaded port Mail steam
ers also If they do not carry contra
band, are permitted to go in and out
