As an educator her fame has gone
north, south, east, west, across our
fair land! Then why this unceasing
effort to GUST Mrs. Young from our
schools?
I can believe only that some Of her
enemies have an Interior object in
view in trying to GUST her from her
position. Stop throwing the dust of
religious issues in our eyes. Let us
try to find the real issue.
Try Mrs. Young on her record as
an honest, efficient and wise admin
istratOr of our public schools and I
believe she will not be found wanting.
In the meantime, hasten with the
school sites investigation and the ap-
praisaI of school lands. Do not let
us lose sight of these vital issues in
our religious chickering's.
Yours for the truth.-A. J. T.

GIVE US MORE LIGHT.-The in
vestigatiOn of the board Of education
held at the Hotel La Sale has not
passed the pencil or coal "steaP' as
yet. I may be very impatient, but I
wish they would get to the big
steals" in the school sites and in
the steals on school lands in the
loop district.
As 1 see it, much time is taken by
the enemies of Mrs. Young to GUST
her from the SUPPLEMENTARY ever
since has taken that Office. And
why? have never been able to find
one valid reason. Her record has
been that of an honest, efficient pub
lie official
It seems to be that much dust has
been raised to blind the public to Mrs.
Young's good qualities.
Even the religious issue has been
raised. 1t has been circulated that
Mrs. Young has been faVOTing Cath
Olics in her appointments.
That she even had an altar in her
room at the Hotel La Sale. Some
have written to The Day Book, if 1
remember rightly, asking of what
church she is a member.
Now, in the last session of the in
vestigatiOn the Catholics are out
ragged. Mrs. Young says that the re-
porter did not quote her correctly.
And thus it goes, public swayed
first one way and then another, but
all the time it looks to me the real IS
sue is avoided. How does Mrs.
Young stand in regard to graft, the
big steals in land sites and appraisals
of school lands?
There is no accUser, not even
among her enemies, to say she is in
collision with any graft or steal from |
school sites down to school books or |

WHY CLOTHES FADE

please why the sun fades the color
of cIothes?-Housekeeper.
That the sun fades or burns the
color out of certain fabrics every
housekeeper has learned from expert
ence and so she hangs her colored
clothes in the shade on washday.
This, in brief, is what happens. The
color in cloth is a chemical substance
or dye. Sometimes it is fast" but
very often it can be faded or burned
out of the fabric, or as the scientists
say, oxidized. The suns rays have
power to cause a chemical change
in these color substances, it burns
or consumes all or part Of the color
in the cloth. When it does this we
say the clothes have faded.
Oxygen, which is one of the eIe-
ments that make up the air, acts with
the sun in causing cOlOTs to fade.

The Hesperian.

The Hesperian, the Allan line steam
hip, on her way from Liverpool to
Montreal with many passengers and
/ crew among whom were two or
.hree Americans, was sunk by Ger
nan torpedo a few days after German
Ambassador Won Bernstorff gave his
word in writing-and the word of his
sovernment-that no more liners
would be sunk without warning. The
officers and passengers on the Hes
1erian say no warning was given.
This raises anew complications with
Germany. The strained situation
which was alleviated by the state
nent of the German ambassador
gain exists,

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE note
delivered TO Ambassador Gerard by
the German foreign office yesterday
which was believed to be supple
mental communication on the sinking
of the Arabic, now is understood to
be note on the unsuccessful attempt
made to torpedo the Cunard ship, Or
duna, several weeks ago.
German officials said that when
the contents of the note is made pub
i.c, it will probably be found that
Germany claimed some sort OF justi-
fication for the attack. The Orduna
was chased and shelled by a subma-
rine after the torpedo had missed
her stern by but few yards on
July ninth. She was on trip to the
United States and carried twenty-five
American passengers. What effect
the attempt to Justify the Orduna
case, will have ON the situation al
ready made delicate by Germany's
stand on the Arabic matter, is sub
iect OF wide speculation in official
circles
The new note the United States
will send to Berlin will probably be
delayed until the second note from
Germany, now on the way, 10 recefX-
ed. 1t will probably point out for one
thing, that the mere assumption by
a submarine commander that his ship
was about to bo attacked, cannot be
accepted as justification for tor
pedoing an unresisting merchantmen.
Such a stand by the United States Is
not expected to lead to complications
Officials here consider that the fu-
ture depends on Berlin. Discussing
the Arabic matter, Secretary Lansing
said that the United States is now
facing the question whether 1t is
willing to let a court Of arbitration
decide if the submarine commander
was justified in his act The court
It is understood, would not be expect
ed to touch on the general subject of
the legality Of submarine warfare.
Secretary Lansing declined to
comment on the attitude OF the
United States or its future action.

The Evening Standard expresses
the hope that the British government

that the western part of the city Of

improvements made is in any way re-

do know, tho, that every user OF the
streets rejoices at the improved condi-

holes came from the railroad company
right of way near the fuel oil tanks and
almost equals asphaltum as a paving
material after it is rolled down by pass
ing vehicles. If the material is abund-
ant enough it would be good invest
ment to cover Commercial street from
end to end. To get rid Of the dust
the property owners could and ought to
stand a large share of the expense.
The sidewalk improvement, made at
the same time, is commendable and
