TRAVELLING MAN
TELLS OF VISIT TO
the DEUTSCHLAND

Probably the only commercial sales
man of the many WHO visit Augusta on
their trip through Maine who has en-
ioyed the privilege of inspecting the
undersea freighter Deutschland both
inside and outside is Godfrey Bauer,
who represents New York house
which manufactures prescription bot
ties and who was in the city Thurs
day.
Mr.. Bauer, who is German, was at
New London, Conn, on the day OF the
arrival at that port of the Deutschland
and on the following day visited the
submarine, which was a privilege en-
joyed by but very few. The open
sesame in his case was the fact that
he had served a number of years in
the German army and had with him
the papers showing that he had been
given an honorable discharge. That
fact was sufficient for Capt. Koenis,
commander Of the submarine, and he
accorded to Mr.. Bauer every courtesy,
showing him all through the craft and
also submerging it for his entertain
ment.
spoke yesterday was the arrangement
of the food supplies, which was GER
tainly unique, practically everything
being put up in tin, and the assort-
ment of vegetables was such that it is
doubtful if even one kind had been
omitted. For instance there were
canned peas which upon being opened
were found to be inclosed in skin as
are sausages. With the peas there is
also a slice of bacon and some kind of
sauce, and when prepared for the
table the mixture is placed in a pan
and heated on an electric heater, max
ing very palatable meal
The bread said Mr.. Bauer, IS also
kept in tin, Theoretically sealed, after
being wrapped in tissue paper. When
wanted for use it is taken from the
tin, dipped in water and then warmed
on the electric heater, coming to the
table as fresh as If Just baked. Mr..
Baure was shown drought the entire
interior OF the craft and found every
department equally as interesting as
had been the supply department.
Concerning the submerging of the
Deutschland. Mr.. Bauer said that the
captain and he went from the dec,<
down through an opening that looked
like manhole to sewer and as the
captain pressed a button the cover "a
the opening came down and closed n
water tight. After that the craft Wa
submerged. and within a very short
space Of time rested on the bottom ~
the harhor. When the craft raised ~
self to the surface again. said the mar
rator. it came up just like a fish. it,

is TO have a choir and possibly quar-

been made for the selecting and train
ing OF the singers who are to take
part. The first rehearsal is to be held
this evening in the church, and it is
hoped that a large number of those
interested in this work will be pres

great interest which was created by
the union choir which assisted in the
Taylor Chamberlain revivals is partly
the cause OF the attempt to form a
choir in the church.

TURN DOWN PETITIONS
Supreme Court Will Not Consider
Arkansas City Plea.

Popular petitions in legal actions
are not viewed with favor by the state
supreme court. The court today dld
not hesitate in refusing to consider
popular petitions from 400 Arkansas
City men and women who wanted
rehearing of the Hunt-Gibson mayor
atty case The court not only refused
to consider the petitions but refused
to permit the introduction of addl-
tional petitions offered in the case.
Recently the supreme court issued
an order ousting o. S. Gibson from
the office of mayor of Arkansas City.
Evidence showed that Gibson or his
friends had promised offices to certain
persons who were active in Gibson's
election. The court held that such
procedure was little short of bribery.
Following an order ousting Gibson
from office, 1 400 residents of Arkan-
sas City signed petitions asking for a
review of the case. The court refused
to consider an appeal to the bleachers
and today overruled the motion for
new trial and reaffirmed the order
of two weeks ago. Another effort to
reinstate Gibson will be made during
the January session of the supreme
court. But today's action in sustain
ing a motion to strike the petitions
from the records. is believed to have
finally settled the issues in the mayor
alty fight.

TRIM LONDON MENUS
First Food Restriction Cuts Hotel
Dinners to Three Courses.

London, Dec. 1S.-The first food
restriction went into force in England
today Hotels and restaurants are
now forbidden to serve more than two
courses for breakfast or luncheon and
three courses for dinner.
Little inconvenience was expert
enced in connection with the two first
meals. The Englishmans usual
breakfast consists of a cereal and ba-
con, eggs or fish, anc except in the
more expensive places a luncheon of
two courses is the rule 1t was in ar
ranging for a dinner of three courses
that the caterers experienced the great
est difficulties, but even in this case
few are likely to go hungry, as hors
d. oeuvres and soup count only half a
course, and for the two other courses
the diners have the choi of fish,
entrees or roasts with vegetables
and desserts. Cheese with bread and
butter or crackers is not counted as
a course.
The meatless day which is expected
to follow shortly will prove a more
difficult problem for restaurants
which make a speciality of roasts.
