Genuine Heroism.

The characteristic of genuine hero
ism is its pers.stency. All aen have
wandering impulses, fits and starts of
generosity. But when you have re-
solved to be great, abide by yourself.
and do not weakly try to reconcile
yourself TO the world. The heroic
cannot be the common, nor the COM
mon the heroic. If you would serve
your brother, because it is fit for you
to serve him. do not take back your
words when you find that prudent peo-
pie do not commend you. Be true
to your own act. and congratulate
yourself If you have done something
strange and extravagant, and broken
the monotony of a decorous age. 1t
was a high counsel that l once heard
given to young person: Always
do what you are afraid to do."-Em-
erson.

Muriel was already helping my love
out of her heavy Russian coat, a cost
ly garment lined with sable. and
when, after greeting Jack and Olinto,
she was comfortably seated, / took
some notepaper from the little writing

in pencil the words:

wrote, she drew back in horror and
surprise at the words. Then / added

AMBASSADOR Won BERNsToRFF
SAYS NO MORE LINERS TO BE

BELIEVE GERMANY SINCERE

Washington. Strained relations
between the United States and Ger
many over submarine warfare appar-
entity ended after Count Won Bern
storff, the German ambassador, in
formed Secretary Lansing in writing
that before the sinking of the Arabic
his government had decided that it's
submarines should sink no more liners
without warning.
Oral assurances to this effect were
given by the ambassador last week.
But it was not until Count Won Bern
storff, after a call at the State De-
partment, returned to the embassy
and sent letter to Mr. Lansing quot
ing instructions from Berlin concern
ing an aswer to the last American
note on the sinking of the Lusitania,
that officials admitted their gratifica-
ton over Germany's change of heart.
Count Won Bernstorffs letter fol-
lows:
my Dear Mr. Secretary-With ref
erence to our conversation | beg to
inform you that my instructions con-
corning our answer to your last Lusi-
tania note contains the following pas.
sage:
Liners will not be sunk by our
submarines without warning and with
out safety of the lives of ncncombat-
ants, provided that the liners do not
try to escape or offer resistance

cident occurred.
81 have no objection to your max
ing any use you may wish of the
above information.
81 remain, my dear Mr.. Lansing,
yours very sincerely,
u. Won Bernstorff.'
Secretary Lansing interpreted "lin-
err as used in the letter to mean all
peaceful merchant ships. Later in
conversation the German ambassador
explained that regular passenger ves-
sells were meant. There seemed to be
no disposition, however, to question
the intention of the Berlin government
to grant the fundamental demands OF
the United States.

With deep-drawn sigh she at last
finished, and, her head still bowed In
an attitude OF humiliation. It seemed,
she handed wha. she had written to
me.
In breathless eagerness read as
follows:

recommended as follows:

Making of instrument Used In the
Army Is Delicate, Complicated
Process.

From start to finish, the making OF
an army bugle is a process of much in
genuity and interest. A bugle may not
at first sight present striking re-
semblance to its cousin. the coach
horn. but the one is practically
curled-up version of the other. for, be-
fore the bugle is bent into shape, 1t
consists of a narrow tube, 81 inches
long.
In the first stage of manufacture
the bugle is cut out of sheet copper
and rolled into two thin cylinders,
technically known as the bell and
the branch" The narrow tube, which
is the bell" is gradually shaped out
on molds until the opening is the regu-
lar 4-inch diameter. 1t is then spun
on a wonderful machine, and an expert
workman takes the rough edges of the
copper.
Both sections are afterwards filled
with molten lead, preparatory to the
bending stage, and ii is this solid
stuffing which prevents the tube break
ing IN the process. and allows 1t to
keep its shape. The expert workman,
with the aid of formidable lever and
hammer, bends the bugle into the IA
miliar shape. the lead being subse-
quently melted out at a charcoal fur
mace. after which the instrument Is
sent off to the polishers.
One of the most intricate parts OF
the bugle is the mouthpiece. which Is
made of nickel silver and turned out
on a special lathe. With the mouth
piece fixed, the instrument Is ready
for the testing-room.

them.
The downtown Office on Broad

a big advertisement not only for
the Dry Climate Tire, but for
Arvada as we'll. as it is right in
the heart of the automobile sales

der is in Akron now organizing

is not so heavy and will not re-
quire special foundations. The
big machines are in place and a.
waiting the big motors.
One thing that makes President
Clark and his associates particu-
larly anxioua to get started to
making tires is the great reduc-
ton in place on crude rubber,
caused by the fact that it is con-
traband of war, which throws it
onto the home market at less
