l WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-RetentlOn of all existing navy yards. establish ment of submarine bases on the At lantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts, and a thorough aeronautical survey of the coasts of the United States and it's ! possessions were recommended to congress today in a preliminary re- port by a special commission of naval hofficials appointed by President Will son.
 The commission consisted of Rear Admiral J. NJ Helm. Chief Construc- tor w L. Capps. Civil Engineer H. H. Rousseau, Captain G. w. McElroy and Commander C L. Hussey.
 It spent several months making in- spections along the coasts and an nounced today that further investigat- ing would be necessary before com plete reports can be made on many questions.
 Abolish None, They Ask On the abolishment of navy yards the report recommended:
 That it is unnecessary, undesirable and inadvisable to abolish at this time any existing navy yard or naval station within the continental limits of the United States" In arriving at this conclusion the commission says that full consideration of the pres ent and prospective size of our navy, its requirements not only in peace but during the far more eXacting con ] ditions of war should bring convinc- ing evidence that abolishment at this time of existing naval yards of naval stations would be without justifica- tion."
 The reports explain that this should not be taken to mean that there might not be transfer of work from one yard to another or changes in methods of declares that the present equipment of many yards is inadequate in dry docking facilities, berthing space. storage facilities, machinery and oth- CT details.
 Yards Far Inadequate Tt is not only unequal for the re- quirements of the fleet" says the re port, but will be seriously inadequate for its proper maintenance when the fleet is completed to its present au- thorized strength
 Not all the yards "are ideally To- cated." to meet strategic and other requirements, but the commission concludes that such consideration must have little force" in view of actual conditions and the actual re- quirements of the present and pros pectiye fleet.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

An examining physician for one of the
prominent life insurance companies, in an
interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so COM
mon to the American people, and the large
majority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that they
have the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strictly
an herbal compound and we would ad-
wise our readers who feel in need of such a
remedy to give it trial. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

What the
Christmas
waits" Sing

CANTA CLAUS being about to de-
- sert the city streets for his annual
reindeer ride over the roofs, the
'waits" prepare to sing their centuries
old carols.
In several American cities has been
revived the beautiful old custom Of the
"waits" going about from house to
house singing the familiar old songs.
Light the Christmas candles in your
window If you want them to stop be-
fore your home!
God rest you merry, gentlemen; let
nothing you Disney
they will surely sing that, perhaps the
best known Of all old English carols.
And this too:
Hlrle! The herald angels sing,
Glory to the setoborn king.
And, of course, 20 Little Town Of
Bethlehem"
Perhaps, too, they will sing what is
said to be the earliest known Christ
mas carol, dating from the Anglo-Nor-
man days of the thirteenth century,
which begins:
L0rdIsngs, listen to our lay
We haze come from far Gt0Gy
To seek Christmas.
In this mansion a0e are told
He his yearly feGsts doth hold:
TITS today!
Nay joy come from God above
To oil those aOhO Christmas I0Ue.
This carol ends with the toast Of
those days:
"Here, then, I bid you all wassail,
cursed be he who will not say drink
hail." Wassail'' meaning your health
and "drinkhail'' being the usual and
courteous acknowledgment.
One Of the best known Of all the old
carols, although not one of the Oldest,
was written by Nahum Tate in 1903
and is called the "Song Of the Angels"
1t begins:
While shepherds aoGtched their foclcs
By night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came d0s0n
And glory shone around.
Many are the carols in which Brit
aims ancient holly figures. "Then
