to learn that Mrs.sROrer has not eat
q meat for nearly half century,

eighty Years OF age, md stiH strong

that while meat may NOT be abso-

good. The Kentucky eolon0l, YOU

NAVY LEAGUE
NEED Of HELP
CAMPAIGN. FOR VOLUNTARY
SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BE IN
AUGURATED IN PENSACOLA
MONDAY.

A campaign for voluntary subscrip-
ton to the Navy League will he in
augurated in Pensacola Monday and
while no active solicitation will be
done, those who are able to give,
and who realize the great need for
assistance, are urged to help an or
ganzation which has never before
appealed to the public Cor funds for
its own work.
The league has been actively at
work for some time, but since the
outbreak of the war has doubled its
efforts, obtaining recruits, locating
eN-navv men. and making articles Of
wearing apparel for the comfort Of
the men.
The last named in particular has
been the center of interest and wo-
men all over the country have vc'-
unteered their services to knit muf-
flers, sweaters, helmets, and various
otner articles to keep the seamen
warm while on duty in the winter.
Until now, one had but to agree to
do the knitting. and the material
was supplied, with the understanding
of course that the articles, when fin
ished will be given to men aboard
the vessel named for the state in
which the workers live Under this
plan, knitted goods made in Pensa-
cola. and elsewhere in the state, are
given to the men aboard the super
dreadnought "Florida."
In buying the material for the
making Of these sweaters, and muf-
f7ers, the funds of the league have
been greatly dcrlered and unless i'm
mediate assistance is given, the ac-
tivities of this organization will be
seriously curtailed.
The French war orphan button
day was held under the augpicies Of
the local unit of the Navy League,
and the tremendous response of near
ly a thousand dollars proved Pensa-
cola's interest Because one tag day
vas held by this organization, it is
not desired to make a solicitation for
funds for itself, but merely to inn
press on the people Of the city the
urgent need. that this important
work may continue, unhampered. 1t
IS firmly believed that when the need
is realized, the money will be given,
and everyone is urged to contribute
no matter how small an amount. TO
hep the league with its work

NORWEGIANS
HONOR KING
FORTY-FIFTH BIRTHDAY ami
VERSARY OF HAAKON CELE-
DRAFTED AT CHRISTIANIA ANB
ELSEWHERE.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

ChTtStiania. Aug. 3.-The forty
fifth birthday anniversary of King
Haakou was celebrated in the capital
and elsewhere throughout Norway to-
day with perhaps more genuine en-
thuSiasm than has been displayed
by the people on a like occasion since
the Danish-born king and his English
queen were called to the throne n
1905, following the dissolution of Nor
ways union with Sweden.
Norway has suffered from the
great European conflict as have al!
other neutral nations and in certain
quarters there have been evidences of
dissatisfaction over the policy pursued
by the government. But the masses
of the people are thankful that their
country has been able thus far TO
avoid getting into the maelstrom of
actual warfare and to King Haakon
IS given a large measure of credit for
the success of the peace policy.
The war has bound Norway, Sweden
and Denmark more closely together,
the three kings have met and planned
to guard their rights as neutral coun-
tries, and this mutual need of holding
together has resulted in making the
monarchy more popular in Norway.

been good and they made a stiff fight
for the positions which they finally
had to relinquish. In the ruined vii
!age Of Hollebeke the British were
faced with large numbers of concrete
dugouts which had no surface en-
frances, but which were approached
by tunnels. The attacking troops
forced their way into these strong
holds which contained large numbers
of men and blew them to pieces with
bombs. This underground tunnel is
still filled with German bodies. Just
north of Holebeke two strongly held
German positions were ocsaI1ao with
out a stop. On the ground overlook
ing Wystschaete the British encount-
cred shell holes, camouflaged with
wire netting and hedges which had
been interlaced with barbed wire. This
delayed their progress somewhat, but
did not save the Germans. Fierce
fighting occurred here and the <'I=-
tralians, who were conducting the Of
fensive carried the positions with bay
onets, killing large numbers of the
enemy.
One notable incident of the days
fighting occurred on the WarnetGa-

took the place in the early morning,
but the Germans regained it the same

charged the position with bayonets
and elected the Germans after san
culinary fighting. La BASKERVILLE was

with their dead defenders who were

FROM STRIKING. But COULD
NOT STOP THEM FROM QUIT
TING INDIVIDUALLY.

Tallahassee, Aug. 3.-When all
trains, freight and passenger, of the
Georgia, Florida & Alabama railroad
reached their destinations last night,
the members of the crews, as lndi-
viduals, sent in their designations by
wire and left the trains standing on
the tracks. There is no movement
on that railroad today On yPster-
day Judge " NJ Harrell. Of the Al
banT, ga, circuit, granted the re
straining order asked for 5y the road,
which order prohibits the engineers,
firemen, conductors and fiagmcn from
striking. They did not strike roIlcc-
lively, they declare, and did not walk
out as a body or BY any order Of a
leader OF head Of any organization,
but as individuals they resigned their
positions simultaneously all up and
down the line.
The trainmen Of this road recently
made certain demands of their en-
pIoyer1 which were not granted in
toto. and the men then threatened to
strike. On yesterday they were en-
joined from doing this. 1t Is believed
that the root of the whole trouble is
the discharge of an engineer some
months ago, because, the tralnmen
say. he took an active part in the
threatened nationwide strike year
ago,
Railroad officials claim that there
was a taCit agreement between the
men who all resigned simultaneously
last night and that therefore their
action constitutes a strike and the

BERLIN SAYS FLANDERS
FIGHT STUPENDOUS ONT

Berlin, Aug, 3.-Dispatches from
the front in Berlin newspapers agree
in describing the battle in Flanders
as a struggle for a submarine base
in Belgium as we'll as characterizing
it as the most stupendous combat of
the war.
The British advance in the Wyt
schaete sector is commented upon as
n part of a strategic scheme to gain
U-boat bases. That attack it is said,
is calculated to give Entente forces
freedom of movement and permit
them to proceed from the Ypres bat
tleground and strike at Zeebrugge
from the rear.
