news of the sinking Of the British
steamer Glengyle, with the loss OF
ten lives, has created a profound i'm
preston in all the ententes capitals

of several sections of the intricate
Mediterranean coasts and archipela-
goes is necessary. Presumably the
occupation recently by entente forces
of the Island of Castelorizo, off the
south coast of Asia Minor. was one

thorough control OF the region where
submarine bases are supposed TO
exist

Here they were met by the king dressed in new flowing robes of blue with a blue muffler tied around his neck After the soldiers were lin- ed up at seats on either side of the market place the king made a short speech, first in his native tongue and then in pidgin English, admonished his subjects to be kind and courteous to the new conquerors.
 Then the dance began. The orches- tra was made up chiefly of various sized drums made of hollow trees and stretched skins.

After do- ing this for some time the orchestra and native audience getting more and more excited six of the kings ladies appeared on the scene.
