Only once since the war began hoe

that any such thing had happened
and all the evidence at the time went
to show that the submarine captain
made a mistake in claiming such a

The German failure to interfere
with this vital traffic of the foe was
explained yesterday by travellers
reaching here from London and Ber-
lin, who had opportunity in both

Contrary to the general notion that
a protective lane Of torpedo-boat de-

has been stretched from Folkestone
to Cape Gris-Nez a wire cable netting,

That the German submarines have
been unable to get at the Allies troop

merged netting, is explained by the
fact that their 5000 miles cruising
radius, while permitting them 70 pass
through the North Sea and around
the British Isles and return to Their
bases, falls short just before the pro-
tected area is reached.
The German government has never

(By William T. Ellis.)

These are grave days. The black
ado Of war, which hovers over the
whole earth, has sobered the think
ing OF men and women everywhere.
1t has set young and old to thinking
in national terms. This is the hour
for the creation Of a cult Of patriot
ism. Devotion to our country, and zeal
for her highest welfare, should be
cultivated by all possible means. In
home n churc and prayer meeting
and public school and daily newspaper
love for the flag and all that is repre-
sents should be Systematically incul-
Gated. The nations story should be
told over and over, and the ideals
which are her life should be empha-
| sized. The hour has struck for stress
ing the essentially spiritual quality of
patriotism. AS a nation thinketh in
it's heart, SO is it. Righteousness ex-
lalteth a ration. but sin is a reproach

You betcha they're going

Slowly the warming sunbeams TAN
Across the quiet way;
The far-otf beat of passing feet
Fills all the fading day.
A thrill of war is in the air,
And far away a gun
Speaks shrilIy through the evening calm
And 10. some life is done.
And yet where blood and smoke and
flames
Curl up to meet the sky,
The Saviour walked long years age
Where armies fight and fly.
He told men how to live their lives.
And how. in time. to die.
Perhaps beneath some crumbieG arch.
He laid His gentle hand
On one whose life was torn with strife,
And said: Il urderstand!'
Perhaps where streets are scared with
shot
And noises born OF hell
Shrek from afar, the shattered stones
OF Jesus love could tell.
Where dying men gasp out their ives,
Where rumpled banners sway,
Where blood lies on the dusty road,
Where hate is fierce today
Perhaps some flower blooming, shows
Where Jesus knelt to pray

The Illogical Sex.

Is there any one more illogical than a
woman when she talks pro or con on the
suffrage question?
The answer is: Yes the man when
he talks pro or con on the suffrage ques-
tion.''
And the debate on the floor of the
House of Representatives yesterday was
substantiation OF this opinion. No one
is very logical when it comes TO the suf-
creep in. Sentiment, tradition, training,
disposition. are all sure to have prece-
dence over pure reason when this ques-
ton of votes for women" is under con-
sideration. 1t is a relief to know that
this is not all due to the fact of feminine
lack of logic.
Surely there never was an anti-suf-
fragist among women who called up
more purely sentimental reasons for re-
fusing suffrage to women than did some
OF the members who opposed the Mondell
measure. And seldom DO the most en-
thuslastic OF feminine supporters Of the
equal franchise. base ther claims on more
Hypothetical reasons than did the men
who supported the cause" yesterday in
the House
And this doesn't 80 to show that wom-
en- are more logical than they are usual
y given credit for. or that men are less
so than they like to suppose. 1t simply
means that the suffrage question, viewed
either by one who favors it or one who
opposes it, is a question of vital imPOr-
tance.t The movement has reached a
crisis in its development, and at criti-
cal period Of the working out Of any
question of publ" interest, enthusiasm
and prejudice overstep the bounds Of
logic.
The Washington herald., 1915-01-13
Both Sides Of
Every Question

Both are essential, man and woman,
but differently: and the plea that one
necessary factor is more important or
! superior" to another necessary factor Is
the same kind of an absuridty as a con.
tention that fire is superior to food in
arriving at A weII-cooked dinner. The
come hunters, trappers, scouts police
men, etc, apparently proving physical
equality and numbers have become eff
cient school superintendents, public off,
Cials, and executives. and thus shown
mental equality. No anti-suffragist has
ever contended, as far as 1 know, that
women are less intelligent than men
this is a suffrage bugaboo the vote seek
ers try to make people believe to keep
them from realizing the fact that the real
anti argument is that women are natural
" different from men-and cannot be
made Identical by legislation when the
physical laws of the world made them
different by nature But there is not
so much difference between men ana
women, suffragists contend. No. there
is not, but what there is was put there
by nature and il is the anti-suffragists'
aim TO have women maintain these ma
tural differences, and to resist the ambi-
tiOn of a few feministS TO erect an arti-
fiCial political equality" not consonant
with the true progress of sex differen-
tiation" and division of labor that dis
tinGuishes civilization from savagery.''-
