International News Service.
 LONDON, April 5.-One of the mos. daring exploits in the history of sub marine warfare was the visit of d German U boat into the harbor at Portsmouth this afternoon. The sub marine destroyed two torpedo boats and whilst advancing to the naval dockyards was blown up by mine.
 Considerable excitement prevailed in ;he harbor which was occupied by many war ships Torpedo nets were put out by all ships and the light flo- tilla of destroyers and torpedo boats went out under all steam to the Isle of Wight where another submarine had been sighted.
 The action of the U boat In coming through the harbor which was packed with shipping, mostly merchantmen, and selecting for his prey the fast torpedo boats is considered to be one of the most dare devil maneuvers executed on the water since sink ing of the Merrimac.

don't wish to be rude, but It Is my duty
to say that you are clumsy. You are
mastodonic, II Is true; but the masto-
don is an extinct animal. Why be ex-
tinct?"
Tommy was missing more obviously
than ever. He was tired.
Now, II I can, let me illustrate an

deliberate purpose and executed with
due economy. 1t travels the shortest
possible distance and, theoretically.

necessary power. It may be delivered
with either hand. In this case, we will

his eyes narrowed, and his forehead
her. His fist came from nowhere, but
1t landed somewhere, and his body was
following it. Tommy Treadwell, al
ready wabbling from his own efforts,
turned halfway around, staggered,
and fell flat on his face
Constance uttered a cry and covered
her eyes.
For an instant Tommy CROPPED at the
pavement; then began to rise, uncer-
tainly.
Don't make me do it, again." said
the efficiency man in a changed voice.
You haven't chance"
Tommy, however, was not satisfied.
He wheeled as he reached an erect po-
sition and closed In. So H. Hedge,
again with the sudden scowl on his
face. did it once more.
This time Tommy was longer in aris-
ing, and when he did 1t was to sit on
the running board Of the car and rest
his head in his hands.
Now. IL you please, Miss Brooke"
said Hodge quietly, as he picked up
her grip.
Constance, still averting her eyes,
suddenly sprang from the car and
dashed into the house, where she ran
madly upstairs, half choked with hys-
terical sobs. The. efficiency man
looked at the crestfallen knight on the

slowly.

said. But, really. you mustn't try to

Then he, too, disappeared into the
house.

would reconsider"

WHAT ECONOMY MEANS NOW

G7HE kind of economy that is being urged on the
country designed to profit the economizer in
u monetary way Its purpose is to make the do
nestle drafts the whole store of supplies light pos
sbe so that there will be enough to meet the emergency
that confronts generally disturbed world Following
the advice of those who have studied the situation and
understand existing and prospective supplies and de-
mands may result saving of money or it not but
in either it is important that be followed well
circumstances permit IT, for instance you economic on
heat and light you will money but the main point
is that you will coal which is urgently needed both
in this country and by friends abroad On the other
hand if YOU eat other bread than wheat bread
may not-probably will not-save money, but you will
save wheat Such saving is of the highest Importance
because the wheat crop of the world this year short
and because so much of the labor that otherwise would be
raising wheat has been forced into destructive pursuits
The condition is noted to greater less degree In
regard to sugar, meats, wool and cotton.
Under normal conditions there would be plenty for
everybody, but under present conditions there will not
be enough go round unless willing to make some
sacrifices at the cost of both taste and purses
Our crop this year promises to be the largest we
raised, and must make corn take the place OF
wheat far possible, if the shift is somewhat
expensive and not quite toothsome We en-
couraged to eat chicken instead of pork because while
it is expensive, 1T is important to beef
and pork for the good of the world just than to save
the difference in money But also encouraged to-
eat fish, which will also the meat and perhaps some
money.
The important thing to understand now, however, is
that the kind of economy are in duty bound to use
does money saving 1t the saving of food
fuel and the like, not the benefit of civilization AS
ton have plenty of money but are not going to be
abel to meet the demands food and fuel supplies
unless they used to the best advantage.

Deserving to the Enemy.

Johnny TREADWEII. let fly with
L his right arm, straight from the
shoulder. Hedge did not have his
hands up, but somehow the blow
missed him entirely. Perhaps 1t was a
case Of Providence, or perhaps 1t was
because he flirted his head a few in
ches to the right, accidentally. In any
event, it missed him clean, and Tommy
fell over the grip.
He arose, chagrined and mad clear
through. This time he came in swing
ing. Just what the efficiency man did
1t is difficult to say, for he did not APP
pear to be doing anything, except fall
ing to get hit. He had his hands up
but he was not using them on Tommy
He was lodging punches, stopping
punches, diverting punches but he was
contenting himself with that. His face
wore a thoughtful look. He was not
giving ground, but at the same time he
seemd to be engaged in a purely mega
tive way.
1t is more exhausting to hit nothing
than something, and Tommy Treadwell
was hitting nothing at the rate OF
about sixty blows a minute. 1t did not
improve either his wind or his temper
Constance, whose sympathies were GU
riously impartial, found herself won
dering why girl like herself could hit
a punching bag so easily, while big
man like Tommy could not hit an effi-
cheney man.
and finally the efficiency man began to
speak.
II do not know" he said. as a left
swing passed over his head, where you
studied the art of boxing. But there
is no doubt that you waste a tremen-
dous amount of effort. You do not
box efficiently. In the first place. you
should not swing at all. 1t causes the
fist to travel in an arc, rather than IL,
the shortest way. Observe-you
missed me again."
Tommy, indeed, had, and nearly lost
his balance.
Furthermore" added H. Hedge, as
he side-stepped fresh volley. when
you use the straight blow. you start In
too low and too Tar back. You are
prodigal with muscular effort. for
which you do not obtain sufficient re-
turn, save in the form of exercise
Observe again. You should not start
an uppercut from the ground; it takes
too long. Don't start II below the
waist"
Tommy, breathing now In gasps
charged again.
\ Your footwork Is bad" continued
the efficiency man. You travel a
great distance but you do not axntua.

AFTER WAR IMMIGRATION

IN the years since the beginning of the there has
been great deal Of speculation to its effect mm
grafton when peace present restrictions. Some
have thought that the end of the would see
overflow from Europe to this country of and
anxious to escape from of horrors and
to avoid the heavy burden of taxation certain to follow
An exactly opposite is taken by Frederick c. Howe
commissioner of immigration, in article in the New
York Times He believes that after the there will be
an exodus from this country to Europe, that
the normal trend of migration, established for genera
tons will be completely reversed His opinion is that at
least 100000 people will return to Europe from the
United States in the first year after the if they
obtain accommodations The reasons which he bases
this conclusion follow:
Firs,a census
that at least 100000 our are planning to
number employers cities that there
European peoples return to their native land Third bankers the
very large numbers are SAYING money and making for
trased with those United States.
The causing this change of heart the part of
he gives Desire relatives after long
separation with communications expectation of
cheaper land in Europe organized plans to foster mm
grafton in European countes inability of foreigners to
acquire homes here and the failure of this country to en-
courage agriculture in the in which Euro
pean countries encourage it.
The problem is significant and important enough to
engage the attention Of the entire nation If could Sc
ect those who to return Europe the country would
be freed from many pest but the honest workman as
well the anarchist and the enemy aliens are to be
considered We not afford to lose desirable citizens
since the labor shortage may continue after the The
question OF afer-war immigration might be profitably
studied by experts qualified to make recommendations
for policy to be followed based the real prospect as
far as it can now be judged
