Owing to the continued sharp
advances in the price of paper
and other raw material the pub
fishers find it absolutely neces
sary to increase the price of the
Outlook from $1.50 to $500 per
year. The extreme scarcity of
paper now forces us to pay for
the raw material practically
three times the price paid a year
ago, so while a small profit was
formerly made at the price of
$1.50 per year, the same price
now causes us to lose money.
The advance to 81. 90 per year
becomes effective Januaty /, 1917
Subscriptions received prior to
this date will be accepted at $1.50
and any subscription maybe paid
as far in advance as desired at
the old rare, provided payment is
received on or before January /.
After that date subscriptions will
be strictly cash in advance.

1t is only by speaking loosely that
the shippers of several incoming ships

of many sharks along the coast was
due to shifting of the Gulf stream.

The Gulf stream as distinct cur
rent cannot be identified north of the
thirty-second parallel of latitude, which
1t crosses between the Bermudas and
the Carolina coast. There ii divides
into small streams. The westerly winds
blow upon it and break up its surface.
Its warm waters become mixed with
the colder ocean and 1t becomes an ele-

Who does not remember having 1t
impressed on him in his schooldays
that the mlnistrations of the gulf
stream alone made habitable the Brit
ish Isles? 1t is not true, as patient
study has shown. The southwest
winds bring moisture from the ocean
to Europe, and this great blanket of
moist air contains much more latent
heat than dry air at the same temper
ature. From the moist air come
clouds, fogs and rain, which condense
heat and water upon the Old World
and prevent the loss of ground heat
by radiation. That is why there is
such striking difference in temper
atures upon single line of latitude
cutting the two continents.
While the warm water flows north
