SHAM PREPAREDNESS
Eloquent Misrepresentation Considered Relation
Established Facts-s Plausible Address the Officers of the
Atlantic Fleet-Consequences of Waiting Policy

Preparedness The only way TO deal
with Congress and the people is to give
them the truth and advocate a pro-
Cramme that meets our national need.
"The able experts of to-day in the
navy are keen to take advantage OF
everything that makes for progress.
What we have done is but an earnest
of what We shall do. The reception Of
the feet in New York, the enthusiasm
felt for the service in every part of the
country, and the belief that strong
navy is the best ally of our national
policy of justice are ingrained in the
minds of the American people. The past
cf the navy is inspiring; its present
assures our security; its future will
r. more glorious"
Would that this were true If we did not
know Mr.. Daniels we might be influenced
by this eloquence. But, fortunately. this
last year we have grown in wisdom and
know that such statements believed would
lead to the greatest disaster in our history
A friend of mine who was in Mexico al
the time our ships were sent down there
and then recalled. tells me that Admiral
Mayo pleaded TO be allowed to remain ia
protect the women and children. He sent
three imploring messages 10 this effect But
the final reply from Washington was
cease annoying the Mexicans and leave at
once" and so our American ships sailed out
Of Tampico harbor amid a bowling mob
hurting after them all sorts of insulting
epithets and any missiles they could lay
their hands on. A night Of horror followed,
and my friend helped those brave American
women barrcade the doors of the only ho-
tel in the town. end all night long strug-
gled desperately to keep the Infatuated
populace at bay. Forty little children were
locked in room, and their desperate moth
ers decided TO kill them and themselves
should the Mcxicans succeed in gaining
entrance The insecure door Of the rickety
hotel parted o. times almost half a foot
by the continual battering. and so the ago
nizinc moments passed until the early dawn
brought relief and a tragedy averted.
Have we not Justly gained, as George
Washington feared, "a reputation for weak
ness among other nations" by our vacil-
latipg policy? Certainly now drastic action
must be taken. We can afford no longer to
indulge in "a waiting policy"

For any one to expose an idea in the pres

monopolized the magazines and the books.

When modern society outgrows political
parties it will govern through social and COM

democracy well as it has served the past
oligarchy. The neighborhoods. the groups
the communities will express themselves in

new European war story is not to be
explained here, but the story which

Have Power In Their rails.

There is a curious family of insects
the Poduridae, or spring-tails-pos
sessed of sort of seventh leg or
spring piece, which is so placed under
the body as to give the creature pow
erful aid in jumping. Tests were
made with various members of this
family, and one tiny fellow, hardly
onelfiftieth of an irch long, made a
clear leap of 525 times his length. He
had, of course, great advantage in
the possession of his spring-piece in
performing this amazing feat. But il
the toad and the kangaroo could do
as we'll as the spring-tail in proportion
to his size, the toad could hop dis
tance of 100 feet, and the kangaroo
more than quarter of mile.

New seapIane for the Navy.

The government is building at the
Washington navy yard large sea-
plane for the navy. All parts of this
new plane will be built and assembled
at the navy yard with the exception of
the motors.
The plane is nearing completion and
when finished will have taken about
three months to build. 1t is the first
of this particular type to be built en-
tirely at the Washington navy yard.
The new seaplane is biplane with a
60-foot span and of 6,000-pounds
weight. 1t will be provided with two
motors, and will be by far the largest
aircraft in the possession of the navy.
1t will probably be ready for a final
test in another month.
All of the navy aeroplanes are of
the hydroaeroplane type. For landing
after fight and for rising into the
air fair~sized body of water is neces-
sary as it is quite impossible for these
machines to rise or come back to
earth by means of land Consequent
ly pilots of seaplanes have it in
stilled into them from days of early
training that they can fly only in
the vicinity of large territories which
embr'ce lakes, bays, seas, etc.

GENIUS ALMOST EPlTHETlc
Misuse of Word Gives Meaning That
CrlppIes it-An Erratlc Be-
havior Mistaken.

People of all conditions and convic-
lions love to read of the vagaries of
genius-provided those vagaries are
of sort to bear relating in print. For
most people like to believe that ex-
ceptional creative ability implies a
grotesque personality; and when the
news of the day seems to confirm the
belief, they can nod wisely-they have
found something that they can ex-
plain by formula. So the wild-faced
youth who routed Boston police sta
ton at checkers and boosted of hav-
ing defeated the whole phalanx of
players at the Psychopathic hospital
will be Immediately set down as a
genius. There was a weird twinkle
in his eye, the policemen said; and
he could play checkers. Genius is
therefore conceded ON the first ballot.
That word genius" is coming to
be more and more misused. Although
lunatics have made wonderful con-
tributions to art and letters, and have
shone even in mechanics, the real
genius, in the proper meaning of the
term-the real builder and creator
is most likely to be person of logic,
cold, calculating individual who
works with will as well as with mag
ination. Genius and another fine
word, temperament" are used to
cover much that is unpraiseworthy or
immoral. The popularity designated
genius is often one whose mental eOuiu-
ment falls far short of greatness,
one who has gifts without balance,
more often subnormal than superior
NAL, more deserving of pity than of
worship.
Genius" is growing to be almost an
epithet. We may soon have to cease
applying it to great engineers and in
ventors, diplomats and statesmen, au-
thors, artists and the rest of the neces-
sarily long-headed tribe that keeps the
world at its pace of advance.

the number of marriages would be

INC uumper Oh IuhfTidkSs Wuuau Dc
doubled.
Every woman delights to be in her
coy best room to greet her admirer
when he calls. From the moment he
enters the house until he leaves he
has not one dull moment-not an in
slant to think. Thus he may come
weeks, months and years without ad-
vancing past the friendship guide
post.
1t is for clever women to take the
affair into their own hands at this
stage OF the game. Not by act OF by
hint, but by clever subterfuge. In
stead of meeting him with out
stretched hands in greeting she should
try the absent treatment for half an
hour or so after having the message
delivered to him that she will be
down very soon" In those long, drag
ging moments of waiting man would
have plenty of time to think.
The mind of the average man would
run something like this, after fidget-
ing about in his seat, his eyes glued
slowly dragged itself by lengthening
into the half: What am l here for,
anyhow" And his heart would lose
no time in making answer: Because
this girl has grown so dear to me
without my realizing it that feel
happy and contented only when she
is by my side" That half hour of
loneliness fills him with sudden fears.
Has she begun to weary of his So
ciety? Is there some other Richmond
in the field?
Then and there he resolves to know
his fate ere he leaves her. He has
had time to study out the situation
and to realize that it is far more than
friendship which has been bringing
him to that home to spend his even
ings with that girl. 1t is love.
The leaven has worked we'll. 1t is
he who hurries forward to greet her,
with flushed face, shining eyes and
hands outstretched in ELUSIVE greet
ing. He hardly gives her time to seat
herself ere he whispers to her the
story forever old, yet so new, and
sweet to every pair of lovers.
Many man is deeply in love with
out having the faintest notion of it..
More than one man has asked him
self that all-important question, What
am here for?" When his steps
turned intuitively to a certain home
in which resided young lady whose
companionship he found restful and
comforting. Until a man is brought
to a realization that his heart has
really slipped from him, he will not
propose marriage.

washed out, the roots are cut off with
sheep shears, the sponges are sorted
according to variety and strung in
lunches of ten to thirty each. There
are number of varieties. The wool
sponges are the most valuable, others
being grass, yellow and wire sponges.
Sponges of all kinds are becoming
scarce and the prices they bring are
surprising. Wool sponges bring from
two to four dollars pound. A little
ragged heap of sponges that you could
cart away in a wheelbarrow often sells
for several hundred dollars. The
sponges grow in banks upon the bot
tom of the gulf and the great object of
the fisher is to discover a new bank,
for large one is veritable bonanza.
When a sale is held the sponges are
carried to the water front, where they
form great heaps, divided according
to kind and quality. The buyers are
Americans, most of whom live in Tar
pom Springs as representatives of va
rious northern firms. The Greeks, who
Cwn the sponges, are on hand to ex.
hibit them and extol their value, but
there is no haggling. Sealed bids are
made upon each lot and the highest
offer gets the sponges.
Tarpon Springs is an absolutely
complete and independent unit in the
sponge business There is local sup
ply house which deals in all the par.
aphernalia of the divers, and the brass
helmets which they wear are made
by local machine shop. For the rest
the outfit consists of a rubber suit
iron shoes weighing II pounds, rub.
Der hose to connect the diver with the
pump on deck and the rope by which
he is lowered.
From Tarpon Springs the sponges
go chiefly to New York, Chicago and
Cincinnati, where they receive the
final process Of bleaching, and are then
placed on the retail market.
