by suffering, was the impress of Frances think
ers. They all wanted the war to stop they all
wanted to get again onto the basis of friendship
with the world in sharp contrast to the vindic-
tive spirit of the war writer's that claim to repre-
sent French feeling. How / wished that some
American crowds I've seen could be as broad
and tolerant of an enemy people as those fell
lows were!
But France is the home of new, daring think
ing, especially of the modern cry that THE
WHOLE WORLD SHOULD CONTAIN BUT ONE
PEOPLE, WITHOUT KINGS AND WITHOUT
WARS. That was the starting point of the
thinking of each of those soldiers in that cafe.
AS the evening wore on and the talk became
more intimate, the heat from the red-hot stove
and the mild red wine seemed to get the better
of the discretion of one of them. "The Interna-
tional for me-" he said.
And then he began to sing the French
workingmans song, "The International"
between all nations defiance of rulers,
peace and cooperation. II is the song the
police dread to hear In strikes, and it is alb
sOlutely forbidden in time of war.
The other soldiers stirred uneasily. One got up
and came to the singer, saying 1T is not the
time" They got about him and persuaded him
to stop. But as looked about at the faces of
those men saw in each that he, too wanted to
sing that song.
| climbed absentmindedly onto a train for
Nancy, and settled into seat to dream about 1t.
1t was the finest thing that had seen, the most
hopeful sign that all civilization was not de-
stroyed in this war, that progress was still pos
sibe. An officer cycling me curiously. He
was very poite-whenever looked up sharply,
his eyes would politely shift from my face. He
gazed long and intently at my suitcase in the
rack above.
As the train pulled into Nancy, he disappeared
and when left the car was arrested as Ger
man spy. When they saw my papers and let me
go, l examined my suitcase to discover what had
interested the officer.

SCHOOLS
NOT TO
CLOSE

Tacoma day schools will con-
tinue open today and tomorrow,
despite the bad weather, but all
parents who wish to keep their
children home may do so, accord
ing to the statement today of SIT
perintendent Geiger.
Night school in both the Sta

buildings will be discontinued UNI
til next week.
Unless the storm abates by to-
morrow night, il may he neees-
sary to close all the schools in

Superintendent Geieer said that
his reason for keeping the schools
open this week is because he felt
that many of the children would
be out in the snow anyway. In
this case they would be worse off
than If they were in school

CHINOOK WIND
WOULD CAUSE
SEVERE FLOOD

With several inches of snow
falling again today in Tacoma
and vicinity, the danger Of ire
mendous damage FROM a possible
Chinook thaw was increased al
most 100 per cent, according 10
public officials.
Greater danger, so far AS Ia
coma is concerned, exists on the
big pipe line that brings water
from Green river to Tacoma.

Although the river was COM
paratively low today, the rapidly
falling snow greatly increased
the expected danger when thdw
sets in. Fifty city workmen are
rebuilding the bulkhead.
Should a thaw occur In the
next day or two, according 20
mem bers of the city council, and
the river rise to the excessive
height that is anticipated, bulk

out in an instant.

Rumors that the Green river

Poker Chin Material Found.

It has been several years since open
gambling was allowed in Texas and
other parts of the Southwest. Even
pCker-playing is becoming an almost
lost art. AS an evidence of the fall
ing off in this one-time great national
game, it may be stated that few peO-
pie realize that there now exists an
unprecedented shortage of poker
chips, due to the war across the seas.
The knowledge of this threatened
crisis has caused q worldwide search
TO be made for the mineral known as
barite, which enters largely into the
manufacture of poker chips. In the
days before the foreign war barite
came chiefly from Austria.
1t is well known to mineralogists
that the Llano region of Texas con-
tains many rare and little-knOwn met
ais. This fact caused a search for
barite to be instituted, with the result
that large deposit of the metal has
just been discovered in that district.
The poker chip supply will soon be
replenished from this new source of
raw material.
Barite is also used in the enameling
of iron and steel, the manufacture of
paints, the coating of linoleums and
Oilcloths and the adulteration Of

SEA is KIND TO U-B0ATS
Its Tendency Is to Lift the Craft
Rather Than Drag Her
Under.

Ashore we make the mistake per-
haps of thinking of a submarine as a
heavy, loggy body fighting always for
her life beneath an unfriendly ocean,
whereas she is a light-moving, easily
controlled creature cruising in a rath-
er friendly element.
The ocean is always trying to lift
her atop and not hold her under water.
A submarine could be sent under with
a positive buOyancy so small-that is,
with so little more than enough in her
tanks to sink her-that an ordinary
man standing on the sea bottom could
catch her as she came floating down
and bounce her up and off merely by
the strength of his arms. Consider a
submarine under water as we would a
toy balloon in the air, say. Weight
that toy balloon so that it just falls to
earth. Kick that toy balloon, and what
does it do? Doesn't it bounce along,
and after few feet fall easily down
again and up and on and down again?
Picture a strong wind driving that
toy balloon along the street and the
balloon, as it bumps along, meeting an
obstacle. VIII the balloon smash itself
against the obstacle, or what will it
do? What that balloon does is pretty
much what a submarine would do if,
while running along full speed under
water, she suddenly ran into shOal wa
ter. She would go humping along on
the bottom, and, meeting an obstacle
if not too high, she would be more
likely to bounce over it than to smash
herself against thames B. Connolly,
