 A big factor in the increased production, however, is the extent to which measures are being taken for the conservation of the water supply.

ZEPPELIN DRILL SUPPLANTS FIRE
 DRILL IN LONDON
Advertiser Distribute Neat
 Cards Giving Household > CTS Advice.

London, July 9-tzeppelin dril1'' has now taken it's place alongside the fa- nniliar fire drill in some London facto- ries and business places. In a few cases respirators have been provided by employers and weekly or fortnight ly respirator parades accompany the Zeppelin drill.
 For households, advertisers are fur nishins neat placards with t'Direc- tions'' for conduct in case of air raid. brief instructions:
 Don't go into the street.
 'fC1ose all windows and doors on low CT floors.
 '<Keep buckets of water and sand upstairs.
 Have resptrators handy in bed rooms"
 A housewife writes to g. newspaper to describe the steps she has taken to protect her household: Every night the bath-tub upstairs is left ha,1f-full of water On every landing I have buckets of water and sand. In every bedroom there is bowl of water ready for moistening the respirators, and all my family have been advised to keep their respirators under the pill low so to be within easy reach.'
 A school mistress writes advising parents to accustom their small chil- dren to the use of the resptrator: ''It would start1e 8 child considerably, '' she notes, ''to be~awakened in the mid de of the night and have a respirator c1apped over its mouth
 There is no unaninnfty of opinion even among the police authorities as to the proper mode of procedure for househo1ders in case of Zeppelin at tack In most places the police~h have advised people to go into their cellars, but the chief of police at Windsor is sure this is inadvtsab1e. His code of i[ST1 7R of fact common sense almost Yankee in it's directness, is as follows:
 Do not congregate in one room or in the basement, as has been freely recommended. Some of the bombs re- gently used crashed through roof and floors to basement and then exploded. Again, if gas bombs are used, the eel lar with doors and. windows closed is not a haven of safety.
 t'In Q, few words: In the event of an air raid, put your trust in Providence; have Ssomething eff1cacious on tthe premises for coping with a fire iul its earlier stages c1ench your teeth and do your best"

BRITISH ARE
 RALLYINC TO MEET WAR LOAN
Small Investors and Working
 Men Offer Mites to Sup port Government.

London, July S-AlthouEh no of- ftcal statement has been made or is likely to be forthcoming regarding the amount of subscriptions coming in to the new war loan, it said that, on the whole, the loan is meeting with a good reception. The clerks of Vari- ous banks and postoffices at least are kept busy enough in dealing with pros pectve purchasers Of loan vouches so that it is evident the public is taking a great interest in the new scheme.
 Against the many advantages which are advertised and extolled by the government and by financial agents there are a number of disadvant ntages which are being aired through the correspondence columns of the news papers. Most of these are from the small investor and working man to whom the government was particular ly appealing in drawing up the terms of the new loan. Some persons who have small bank accounts are com blaming that in subscribing for the new loan they find that the bankers are quick to charge a certain fee if, in withdrawing sums for the purchase of loan certificates the patron allows his account to drop below certain minimum.
 In the case of the working man, he seems to find it hard to get the five shiIhngs necessary to buy the small est voucher. In this connection, however, employers are coming to the rescue and are arranging to deduct a shilling or two from the weekly wage. holding this money until the neces- sary sum for purchasing a. voucher has accumulated.
 The attractive conditions of the loan still cause anxiety to those members of the Stock Exchange who are large holders of the so-caIled gi1t-edged securities, such as colonial loans, cor poration stocks. home railes and bonds. These securities have declined consi derably since the announc ement of the war loan and they are in many instances now unsaleab1e, owing to the fact. that there will have to be a con siderable wait before the losses are
 made good and the market recovers it's activity1an attractiveness.

CAMBRIDGE HOSPITAL
 HAS MANY PATIENTS

Cambridge, England, July g. Cambridge is the home of the most successful hospital experiment that has been attempted in England since the beginning of the war. The First Eastern General Hospital, built early last fall, was an attempt to en- list the largest possible amount of fresh air and sunshine into the treat ment of invalided soldiers. The wards are without a wall on the south frontage, being wide open to wind and sun. After six months experience, the managers of the hospital declare it an unqualified success. Eleven thou sand English and Belgian patients have been received from the front and from military camps in Eng land, with only S5 deaths-an aver age of 7-1O of one per cent. This is regarded as a remarkable record in view of the considerable proportion of septic wounds, tetanus, pneumonia, typhoid, and spotted fever among the patients.

TURKISH HELLO"
 GIRLS IN VOGUE
 NOW IN STAMB0UL
Women Now Indispensable In Telephone Exchanges In
 Ottoman Empire.

Hamburg. July -9.-Turk1sh news{is in the greatest vogue in Germany at the present time. German papers have just printed, as an evidence of the growth of occidental ideas in Turkey, a. story of the increasing g freedom of women telephone opera tors in Constantinop1e.
 Though there was the utmost op- position at the start to the idea of Turkish women violating their cen tury-old traditions by entering the exchanges and "exposing'' themselves to the public, this feeling has almost entirely died away. To facilitate their work the auth critics have allow ed them to abandon the prescrib ed Turkish headdress and wear a cap that does not interefere with the tele- phone headpiece.
 Women have become so proficient -so indispensable in fact-that a woman, Miss Osman, has been plac- ed in entire charge of the Stanboul exchange When the telephone oper- ators attempted recently to conduct an outdoors picnic along occidental lines, however, all the o1d-time pre- judfce arose, and a policeman spoiled the whole affair by forcing the wo- men to sit down with their backs to the men.

SAYS WOMEN OF GERMANY WEAR
 SKIRTS TOO WIDE
Frankfurter Newspaper Points Out That Cloth Is Much
 Needed.

Berlin, July 9.-The Franl1furter Geitung publishes protest against the lack of patriotism of German Vvo- men ''who are following the new fashion of wearing full skirts The extra cloth required by the new fash ion, explains the@ Journal could be put to better use.
 ''It is quite possible that the full skirts are more sensible and more pleasant. But why must our wo- men adopt this new fashion at the precise moment when we have to be very economical in our use of wool and cotton? A simple calculation will show that 1t takes twice as much ma teriaI to make a skirt as it did g. year ago, and if one mu1Hpues this increased consumption by the mum Der of ladies who follow the fashion, one arrives at an astounding figure. German fashions today ought to put all considerations behind that of pa triotisnn.- They ought to consider first of all how we are to econonize our small stocks of raw materiaIs.'
