The People Pay.

The people of the United States are
paying war prices for great many ar
ticles OF everyday use because those
articles are not produced at home. In
other words, they are having prac-
teal demonstration at so much per of
the democratic free trade idea. The
Idea is that we ought to buy where we
can buy cheapest. 1t may have worked
in the old days, but it doesn't work
now, because all the cheap sources Of
supply are closed. If the old Repub-
lican idea of protecting industry In our
own country had been fO11oWed con-
sistently for the last ten or fifteen
years we should have had factories
busy In the production Of all these
things, and our people would be able
to purchase them at reasonable prices.
Right now the mistake of abandoning
the theory of protection is costing the
people of this country more than 1t
costs any European nation to do its
part In the war.-Yakima Republic.

SINKS SIX SHIPS
OFF j. S. COAST
GERMAN SUBMARINE CHARGED
WITH SINKING VESSELS IN
STEAMER LANE.
Four British and TWO Neutral Steam,
ers Sent to Bottom or Left Grip
pied DereIicts Just Outside
Three-Mtle Limit.

Boston.--Four British. one Dutch
and one Norwegian steamers were
sent to the bottom or left crippled der
elIcts OFF Nantucket on Sunday.
The submarine arm OF the imperial
German navy is blamed with the at
tack on the vessels.
Sunday night the destroyer hotilla
OF the United States Atlantic feet was
picking up passengers and crews OF
the destroyed vessels and bringing
them to Newport, X. |.
SO far as known, there was no loss
Of life. though the crew OF the Britisn
steamer Kingston had not been ac'
counted for.
A submarine held up the American
steamer Kansas, bound from New
York for Genoa with steel for the
Italian government, but later, on es'
tablishing her identity, allowed the
American to proceed. The kansan
came into Boston harbor late at night
for her usual call here.
The hostile submarine is believed
to be the U-53, which paid call to
Newport Saturday, and disappeared at
sunset. Some naval men, however,
declared that at least two submarines
are operating close to the American
shore, though outside the three-mile
limit.
The sensation created when the
U-53 quietly slipped into Newport har.
Dor, and as quietly slipped away three
hours later, was nothing to the shock
In shipping circles when wireless re-
ports OF submarine attacks began TO
come into the naval radio stations
Just before noon Sunday, Within a
few minutes the air was literally
charged with electricity as wireless
messages of warning were broadcast
ed along the coast.
The submarine or submarines had
taken a position directly in the steam
er lanes.
Vessels OF the entente allied nations
and neutral bottoms carrying contra
band OF war scurried to get within
the three-mlle limit of the American
shore Several that were following
the outside course shifted and made
for the inside lane. The Stephano OF
the Red Cross line. however, was
caught outside the neutral zone.
| The destruction OF this vessel was
perhaps the biggest prize OF the day.
The craft had been sold to the Rus
sian government and would have been
used as an ice.breaker after her pres
Mt trip.
The executive officer of the de
stroyer Erickson, returning early Sun
day from the scene OF the German
submarine activities off Nantucket
reported that nine ships had been
sunk and that three submarines were
operating of the coast, This infor

INcURABLE DEFECT IN BRAIN
Color Blindness Cannot Be Over.

Two defects in regard to sight

are found very often In clever nep,

Color-bllndness occurs in about
three to four per cent Of males and In
a smaller number of females. 1t Is
frequently hereditary. but, strangely
enough, though the males suffer from
the defect, the females carry 1t on
Color-bllndness Is a defect In the
registering apparatus in the brain and
is incurable. 1t is of Importance to
recognize the defect early, and to turn
the attention of the sufferer to work
In which this defect will not be han
dlcap. Such children should learn
early that there Is no work for them
on the railway.
Word-blindness Is a much more Sc
rious defect, and may be the cause OF
the difficulty some children find In
learning to read. They see correctly.
Tested with figures or pictures, they
may pass the standard, but the let
tiers OF the alphabet. when strung to-
gether to form words, convey no mean
Ing to them. The effect Is due to 4
want OF association OF the brain cen
tiers. The defect Is usually mistaken
ut first to indicate defective eyesight,
but this Is not so. 1t is noteworthy
that these same children may show
considerable ease In reading figures,
even money sums. To teach these
children to read, words must not be
taken letter by letter, but as whole,
the word "cat" must be taken not ms
scat" equals cat, but the whole
thing must be the sign for cat. The
method Is known as the "look and say"
plan, and by Its MD 1t Is possible to
