Steamer HarpaIyce Lost in the North
Sea-25 of Crew Missing.
Rotterdam, April 13.-The Brit
ish steamer Harpalyce, the first relief
boat of New York state and under
charter to the commission for relief
in Belgium, has either been torpedoed
or sunk by a mine in the North sea.
The Dutch steamer Elizabeth picked
I'D % of the crew of the Harpalyce
and brought them back to Rotterdam.
The Dutch steamer Constance Cath
erina picked up five men. The steam
err carried a crew of So men, 26 OF
whom, it is feared, have been drowned.
It is presumed that the Harpalyces
cargo had been unloaded and that 1t
was on the return voyage. Before
leaving Rotterdam it was obliged to
give I'D it's safe conduct and Its Red
Cross symbols, so that it was subject
to the same risks as any other ship
after it had finished It's work for the
commission. Eight Grimsby steam
trawlers have been sunk

BEGGARS MAKE EASY MONEY

There has long been a suspicion
that many supplicants for charity

fined in Brooklyn confirmed the suspi-

but they have learned that there is no

against giving to those who may have
more money than they have them

that it is even smaller business to

What of the JOY of Living.

tQuoted from Pictorial Review.
June, 1870
And what is so rare as day in
June2
Then, if ever. come prefect days:
Then heaven tries earth if it be in
tune,
And over it softly her warm
ear lays
In the woods on the edge of town
the dogwood is abloom, wild flow
ers and birds call, but we all go to the
movies.
How many families like that do you
know? How many parents have the
companionship of their children How
many parents really know their child
ren and how many children know the
greatest of all parents-nature?
We buy an auto for our sons and
our daughters sally forth with hot
house yiolets pinned on their smart
jackets.
But the close family ties, bound
more tightly as we roamed through
the woods with our parents in the
old days, are not for our children.
The rare days of spring and early
summer are meaningless to all of us.
The perfect days-the days of June
are at hand Let your worries GO
Close the novel. Leave the auto in
the garage. Turn a cold shoulder on
the matinee or party. Follow heaven
itself to natures nearest nook, and
take the children with you.
