RRITAIN's WAR SECRET.

Descriptive writers OF hichlH-lraa gt-
native leanings were once fond OF
telling short tales bout a wonderful
war secret Of the British government
II was represented that this secret
had To do with terrible weapon Of
destruction. whose existence was
known TO only half dozen living
beings OF whom the King OF England,
the head of the admiralty. and the
head OF the army, were three Only,
IL eas held IN the direst' trehf4ty
would this great engine OF warfare
ns brought 10 light The threatened
destruction Of the world would be the
slightest catastrophe which could pos
sibly evoke il.
An echo of this tale comes in re-
ports from London that Lord Hitch

move against the German use Of
gases, the employment of a specially
destructive shell. the explosion OF
which is fatal TO all life within tho
area of half mile or more. Il is
said that the only opposition TO the
use OF this weapon--which has been
tried on a herd of cattle with fatal
sffeet--comes from King George him
self. who on Humanitarian grounds
opposes its use.

CLARKE COUNTY ON SCHOOL
BOOKS.

! The action of the clark County
school Board in opposing the recent
award of"text- book contracts is not
a surprise II has been known for
some time, and was apparent even
at the time of the award. that the
rural districts almost solidly opposed
a change in textbooks. In fact, the
superintendent of Public instruction
had at the time Of the award express
sions Of sentiment from school teach
ers for and against changes, and
found that large majority of the
replies were against new books.
The Clarke County Board does not
so into detail as to its position. but
states It plainly and as being oppo-
site TO that Of the State Board.
While not surprising, in view Of the
general sentiment of the State. so far
az we have been able to gauge it, the
action of county board in condemn
ing the State Board is very unusual;
almost unprecedented in regard to
book awards.

LABOR ON PosToFFTCE SITE.

The first Richmond SANITATION to
take action on the location Of the
new postofice since 1t has been found
that the government will not build at
Eleventh and Main Streets, is the Cen
trail Trades and Labor Council, which
urges that the ofTiCials of the Treas
urv Department he allowed to select
the site. This is another way of ad-
vocating an amendment 10 the appro-
priation bill providing that the money
he freed from present restrictions and
be made available for any site. That
is the action this paper recommended
soon after it was made known that
unless something OF this nature is
done promptly the appropriation will
he lost and another may not be gotten
for many years.
We trust that other bodies will fol-
low the lead Of the Trades and Labor
Council and go on record for the
good of the city. now that what once
seemed good has been shown to be
impossible.

LYRICS BILL FULL
OF GOOD FEATURES

That's a great show at the Lyric
the first half of the week. Probably
II is the most successful performance
that has been put on at that theater
for a long while. From the first
note played by the orchestra leader
until the final bang OF the mad
drummer" things are interesting and
whipped up for the large crowd that
filled the theater
1t is a difficult proposition to choose
which act or acts cop the first honors
this week so closely are they to-
gether. Every act on the bill. even
to the news pictorial. has a good
chance for the place. For that rea-
son it is best to write about what the
acts accomplished in the order In
whicl they came.

Of them, man, gave just about the
best performance as a contort;onist
that has been seen here for many a

by him. yet his antics Lacked that hor-
ror that generally MARKS men OF his
kind, and proved delightful and anus

THE RAID on LONDON.

At last the long expected and pre-
dicted raid on London by air craft
has taken place, and the result of
German bombs is the death of two
German women and two other per
sons as yet undescribed. The raid
should serve TO restore confidence to
London. Dispatches have stated that
there was great terror previous TO
the raid and that the city has been
in state Of cold shivers since the
first intention 20 make such raid
was announced. 1t is probable that
his has been exaggerated and that
one in London would find little differ
ence from conditions that prevail in
New York or Philadelphia.
But having found the dreaded Yep
pelins as puerile in practice when at
ia cking London as when assailing any
other city. the Londoners will doubt
less stick TO business as usual" with
out further fear or trembling.
