Norfolk, Va, Sept. 25.--Plans for
the war game which the Atlantic fleet

The entire fleet, with the exception
of the battleships Virginia, South
Carolina, Georgia and Rhode Island,
will be anchored in Hampton Roads
off old Point by night. The ships were
sighted steaming into the capes this
afternoon.
Ostensibly the four ships mentioned
are still at the southern drill ground
completing ttIeir turFct practice.
Whether those ships will be attached
to the invading. fleet and have been
dispatched to IA distant point of mobil-
iZation are matters for speculation.
Admiral Fletcher is expected TO is
sue formal orders for assembling the
opposition forces Monday. 1t is un-
derstood that not one of the ship COM
manders knows today just what part
he will play in the big game, which
will have for it's objective dett rmina-
ton of an enemy's chances of inyad
ing Atlantic ports between the Vir-
ginia Capes and Cape Cod.
According to unofficial advices from
officers in the feet 1t is expected that
the ships Will be sent from Hampton
Roads under sealed orders, to be
opened at the five-mile limit. The
ships will dispense and proceed to the
points direct. where they will as
semble under division commanders.
The Wyoming will be flagship of the
defense feet and the swift scout
cruiser Chester will he the flagship OF
the invading forces.

The Danger OF Words.

Our moulders of opinion - our
preachers and politicians and editors
and publishers-are not speaking in
order so muoh to convince us as to
make us act or vote or feel with them
Their words are chains of phrases
strung together almost undesignedly
with view to pulling us to the cause
or party or Idea they are supporting.
1t is a curious delusion that words ex-
press thought. The object of most
words Ia to short-circuit thought
Phrases like democracy. liberty. mill
tarism, the principles Of justice and
humanity. are not primarily meanings
at all. They are epithets hurled ut us
to arouse some desired resentment. or
they are spotlights guaranteed to
create certain warm emotional CLOVIS
Of assent In the mind which receives
them. 1t is the reaction they touch
off that makes them significant. not
their meaning. Words are such dead
~ things, not because they mean
something, but because they get wrap
ped up with our emotion and pull
out with them when they are seized.
In support OF the articuiate emotion
there may be any number Of highly
rational arguments. But II is not the
arguments which. have come first 1t
is the antagonism or the glow Of ap-
prevail, while the evidence has grown
almost vegetatively around the emo
ton. The New Republic.
