Somewhere in the North Sea, via London, Feb. 12-Great Brftain's first line offensive fleet. an tncomparab1e com bination of speed and gun power ready for instant action, was inspected yesterday by a party of French and American correspondents and a rep resentative of the Associated Press was permitted to view from the bridge of a torpedo boat the naval unit which is expected to meet the first shock Of a German attack.
 In, the fleet were virtually all the fighting craft which have been in ac- ton in this war, but they showed few scars with the exception of an oc- casiona1 dent in their arnnor. The pride of place was held by battle cruisers, which in engagements from the Falkland Islands to the Darda- nelles have borne the brunt of the sea fighting Unpopular with officers and men before the war because they were constantly coaling and newer more than casually praised by the pro- ponents of the superdreadnaught pol icy, these huge fighting machines hold the premier position in the British navy, in which warship speed is now regarded as the first and most inn portant principle of naval strategy.
 The correspondents left the naval base under sunny sky, but on reach ing the outlying patrol of torpedo boats found the water covered with a light haze There was no sea run ning however and the haze was not thick enough to prevent the newspa- permen from the comparatively steady platform, seeing that part of the fleet which could be safely brought togeth- CT, even to a, patrol squadron which had rejoined the unit few hours be- fore the review began.

FR0THINGHAM INSTITUTE IS
 DRIVEN BEFORE WARS RUSH
American Phi1anthropists Haven For Serbian Children Changes Base Every Few Weeks Inmates Living In Tents-Ends Anabasis In Saloniki


 & Saloniki. Feb. 12-The F'rothinghann .ChiIdren's Institute has ended it's long anabasis in Saloniki. The clean white walled building, so full of light and flowers, that was planned for erection in Belgrade does not exist. The suf- fcient endowment carefully placed. that should ensure the education and of a Hundred Serbian boys and girls, orphans of the three wars that have destroyed their fatherland, scarcely serves to provide three tents in the side yard of the Russian Hos pitaI at SaIonfki, and nourishnent for thirty-nfne Serbian children to whom ,the wretched niser1es of war are all in the days work Old before their time, tried in the fire of sacrifice and suffering, the thirty mine set up tn cir common house for the fourth time within a faonthA-and hang up the American flags they have brought with them through all their swandcrings as cheerfuI1y as if the world had not crumb1ed under their tiny feeE.
 For when John w. Frothin aham of Tarrytown and Albert White of New York and q group ofAtheir friends con7 ceived and formed the Frot1ingham m sChi1dren's Institute of Serbia, no one dreamedY of the ruin and dassolation that has faIlensupon the country since. It is true that, as Serbia was at war with Austria and Belgrade ssamewhat LOO e4pOS6Q5 10 aIIacks or OOnlEaTQ Qn1enI the first resting place of the Institute E-temporarily, at least was Uskub. Then, when the capital was moved to Nish, it was thought best to estab- fish the Institute there. The thirty nine youngsters in their boy-srout and girI-gtlide uniforms obedientlY moved the get meagFe belongings of the In- stitute to Nish. They remained there just three days. It was evident all i most from the first moment that the Serbian army could not hold oven this temporary capital-zthat it was a mis- take to have brought the children there@that it would be far wiser to l send them as far to the rear as pos Hfble that they might remain zn peace. So the Frothingham Childrefps Instt- ute moved a second tfnse-this time to Gheygheli, almost on thei Greek frontier.
 They remained in GhevglleIi just three weeks. The impIacable advance of the Bulgars slowly drew it's net around the eager but inadequate French force that had been sent to
