Would Outlaw Canoes.

Burning of the canoes at Camp TEX.
akwitha is a good example. The use
Of these extremely frail, unstable and
therefore dangerous craft should be
everywhere restricted to expert swim
mers. Any others who go out in them
risk their lives, since the least in.
cautious movement is likely to cause
an upset even when the water is quiet.
While canoes may still be used by
those who are fitted and ready at any
moment to swim ashore, it would be
better if they were put out of use al
together. There is always the dan.
ger, as long as they are kept at hand,
that boys who cannot swim may seize
an opportunity to venture out in them.
They serve no purpose that is worth
while. An expert may derive some
pleasure from padding canoe about
but to persons who want to enjoy
ride upon the water they offer neither
security nor comfort.-Albany Journal

Genuine tiappIness.

A fact concerning modern religious
activity, which seems to have escaped
general remark, is that Christians
know better how to play than ever
before. In the normal times of re-
cent years visitor at one of the sum
mer conferences of the student Young
Mems Christian association, for in
stance, would be surprised and de-
lighted at the hearty good times which
the delegates enjoyed. Christian En-
deavor, too, has taught young people
how to play. The whole conception
of recreation and its place in life has
received new attention of late years.
Anybody who is seeking for it may
find abundant evidence that there Is
more genuine happiness and intelli-
gent pleasure among Christians than
among the followers OF frivolity.-

Cnuerinn Cream Cans.

A great part of the value Of keeping
cream cool on the farm and at the
station or creamery is lost if the
cream is exposed to the direct rays of
the sun while being hauled from the
farm to the point of sale. Far too
few people stop to realize the impor-
lance of covering their cream cans
when bringing them in to town. Elk
pensive jacketed cans are not neces-
sity to keep the cream cool. In sum-
mer weather just an ordinary piece
of wet burlap thrown over the cans
will keep the temperature Of the cream
as much as 20 degrees below what it
would rise to if left uncovered while
being transported over the average
hauling distance.

Peril of Lead.

A report has been issued by the
United States bureau of labor stats
tics on the industrial conditions in fac
tories making lead storage batteries,
particularly with relation to the dan
ger of lead poisoning. In the con
struction of lead grids the workman
Is exposed to the lead dust and lead
fumes. In some plants provisions OF
hoods and exhausts over the kettles
serve to minimize the danger.
Another danger lies in the making
of the lead oxide when this work is
done by hand; but, in some factories
this work is done by machinery, which
is Enclosed so that there is practically
no danger to the operators. Alto
gether conditions in the United States
are considered decidedly bad COM
pared to conditions in the same indus
try in Germany and Great Britain.

Oconomowoc.-A peculiar storm
struck Oconomowoc and for a time a
tornado was feared. The clouds came
from the northwest and we're so black
that objects but few blocks away
could be seen and the lights had to be
turned on in business houses and resi-

the storm passed on toward the south

FIXED 1T IN HER MEMORY
ingenious Method by Which Lawrence
Hutton Cured Waitress Of Her
Forgetfulness.

The late Lawrence Hutton used to
say that having to take a little trou-
BILE would impress fact on anyone's
memory so that he would never be
able to forget it. In illustration he
would tell this story:
Our waitress, Maggie, could never
remember to put the salt on the table,
and time after time Mrs. Hutton would
remind her to do it. One morning it
was absent, as u~ual, and l said; Mag
gle, where is the stepladder?
It's in the pantry, sir
Please bring it in, Maggie, I said,
kindly.
Maggie brought it in with look
of wonder on her face.
Put it right beside the table,
commanded; and when she had done
so | added: Now, | want you to climb
up to the top of it, look all over the
table and see If there is any salt
there.
Maggie never forgot the salt
again. '-Youth's Companion.

PAY FOR ARABIC
DEATHS REFUSED
Germany FIatly Rejects Any In-'
demnity Claim.
REGRETS THE LOSS OF LIFE
Note to American Government Says
Submarine Commander Was JUS
titled in Action by Fear
of Attack.

Berlin (via Amsterdam), Sept. g.
Germany in her note to the United
States government on the sinking Of
the Arabic expresses regret for the
loss of American lives, but states pos
itively that nc indemnity for such can
be granted.
The refusal to grant indemnity is
absolute and will stand even If the
submarine commander should have
been mistaken as to aggressive inten-
tions on the part of the Arabic.
Following is the text of the note,
made public tonight:
On August 10 German submarine
stopped the English steamer Dunsley
about sixteen nautical miles south of
Kinsale and was on the point Of sink
ing the prize by guntire after the
crew had left the vessel. At this mo-
ment the commander saw a large
steamer, as developed later, the Ara
bic, She was recognized as an enemy
vessel, as she did not fly any flag and
bore no neutral markings.
her original course, but then again
pointed directly toward the submarine.
From this the commander became con-
WINGED that the steamer had the in
tention of attacking and ramming him.
In order to anticipate this attack he
gave orders for the submarine to dive
and fired a torpedo at the steamer.
After firing he convinced himself that
the people on board were being res
cued in Is boats.
According to his instructions, the
commander was not allowed to attack
the Arabic without warning and with
out saving the lives unless the ship at
tempted to escape or offered resist
ance. He was forced, however, to con-
clude from the attendant circum-
stances that the Arabic planned vio-
lent attack on the submarine.
This conclusion is all the more OBJ
vious as he had been fired upon at q
great distance in the Irish sea on Au-
gust 14-that is, few days before
by large passenger steamer. appar-
emily belonging to the British Royal
Mail Steam Packet company, which he
had neither attacked nor stopped.
The German government most deep
ly regrets that lives were lost through
the action Of the commander. 1t par
ticularly expresses this regret to the
government Of the United States ON
account of the death of American citi-
Zens.
The German government is unable,
however, to acknowledge any obliga-
ton to grant indemnity in the matter,
even II the commander should have
been mistaken as to the aggressive in
tentions Of the Arabic.
If 1t should prove to be the case that
it is impossible for the German and
American governments to reach har-
monious opinion on this point, the Ger
man government would be prepared to
submit the difference of opinion, as be-
ing question of international law, to
The Hague tribunal for arbitration,
pursuant to article 50 of The Hague
convention for the pacific settlement
of international disputes.
In so doing it assumes that as a mat
ter Of course the arbitral decision shall
not be admitted to have the impor-
lance Of a general decision on the per
instability or the converse under in
ternational law, of German submarine
warfare.
