FroIickers Of the Sea.

The merry dolphlns have a peculiar
murmuring cry, and when the sailors
hear II they say the dolphins are talk
ing together or all the creatures Of
the sea these show the greatest exu-
berauce OF animal mirth. Often they
are seen by ships passengers In the
Mediterranean and the northern At
lantic ocean frolieking and leaping
from the surface OF the sea with a
thousand graceful motions. Now they
leap with curved bodies many feet into
the air. then they drag through the
waves rapidly. leaving slender wake
OF Whitening foam under the water.
The dolphin Is not more than six or
eight feet long. The body tapers to-
ward the tail, which Is shaped like
crescent. 1t has a beak about six
inches long and a crescent shaped blow
hole. with horns turned backward 1t
Is white on the back. grayish on the
sides and white beneath.

About tho Moon.

The bright side of the moon always
is turned TOWARD the sun. whether the
sun Is visible to us or not So we
should expect that II the moon Is less
than full line joining the center OF
the moon and the center of her illumi-
mated edge would always point toward
the sun. while the cusps or horns of
the moon In her first or last quarter
would point away from the sun. But
II we come TO watch the moon we shall
find that the position OF the cusps
often Is different from what we had
expected. For instance. the sun may
be well below the horizon. yet the
horns may be turned little down
ward and the center Of the bright edge
o little upward.

View Of the past weeks work on the

End Of War Not Yet
We have every right TO he confident
when we see what our men have done.
But the fighting is hard and we do not
think that the present series of bat
ties in Flanders is going to end the
war. There is great deal more hard
fighting before US. | would say that
the importance of getting the Ameri-
can troops as quickly as possible and
in the greatest possible numbers has
not been diminished.
The words steam roller which were
so often used in the early days of the
war in connection with the Russian
army is exactly the right word to
characterize the British advance in
Flanders. 1t is an advance not rapid,

U.Boats Ineffective
Il want to say a word about the
work which has been done behind our
lines in preparing for these battles.
I don't wish to minimize the U-boat
threat, but l can truthfully say that
nothing the Uboats have done has
delayed for single hour our work
in France; II has not delayed a sin
gle round of ammunition or a ration
for the soldiers. The British army
was never better fed or supplied than
today.
General Maurice said the daily i'm
ports of British war material into
France last January averaged ia tons
per hour. in September they had in
creased 245. Commenting on the Ger
man report that the British had lost
half million men in the present Sc
ries of. battles, Gen. Maurice said:
THE figures are grotesque. We have
not had that many men engaged. As
I have already told you. our casual
ties have been very light and the Ger
man casualties are known to have
been IS per cent. greater than ours.
