PERMANENT BUILDINGS
OF MODERN TYPE
To Supplant Temporary Structures Of
Red Cross In France.

Permanent buildings of a modern
type to supplant the tents and tenn
porary structures now occupied by
Red Cross base hospitals in France
are urgently needed before winter
sets in, according to cables received
from Major Grayson Mp. Murphy,
Red Cross Commissioner to France,
who has cable the Red Cross War
Council. to ship quantities of building
materials at once.
Increased suffering, owing especial
ly to the shortage of coal, will result
unless structures built to withstand
the cold can be erected before the
rigors of a French winter grip the
country. The building problem is so
serious in France owing to the search
ty of timber. that Major Murphy cabled
for the immediate shipment of two
million feet Of fir.
Giant fir trees are now being fell
ed on the banks of the Columbia
river, in Oregon and Washington, and
hurriedly loaded aboard a ship wait
ing to carry the lumber through the
Panama Canal to New York where
two complete portable saw mills will
be taken on, as we'll as other building
material, before the ship sails for
France
The supplies requested by Major
Murphy include four concrete mixers,
four portable rock crushers, and port
able engines. and two gasoline tract
ors to be used in the construction
work These will be taken aboard at
New York There are already a num-
Der of expert engineers with the Red
Cross Commission to France who will
superintend the erection of the new
hospital buildings.
The American Red Cross now has
more than a dozen base hospitals in
France, each equipped with at least
five hundred beds, and each in charge
of twenty-five physicians, two dent
lists, sixty-five Red Cross nurses and
$50 0e0nl0isted men of the medical
corps. Additional doctors and nurses
have been sent to a number of the
hospitals.

TO IMPROVE SOLDIERS FOOD
Gorgas Organizes Staff of Specialists
In Nutrition.

MAJOR Gen. Gorgas, the Surgeon
General of the Army. has organized
in his Office at Washington, a food
division for the purpose of safeguard
ing the nutritional interests OF the
army. This work, carried on in CO.
operation with the Quartermaster De-
partment, will include food survey of
each camp conducted by specialists in
nutrition, together with injection of
food received for soldier ration and
study of methods of preparation,
The idea is to carry the work further
than prevention of sickness through
improper food; it is to recommend
changes to provide more healthful and
appetizing meals.
Some fifty or sixty commissioned
officers will be engaged in the work
of making food surveys at the camps,
with about twice the number of
enlisted men to assist in the work
which is under the direction of Major
John r. Murlin. formerly of Cornell
University Medical College. New
York City. Working with him are
Captains Caspar Miller of Philadelphia,
Frank C. Gephart of New York, and
Lieutenants A. w. Thomas of New
York and NJ P. Blutherwick of Wash
ington.
That they may be thoroughly IA
milisr with army cooking methods,
the Surgeon General will detail men
from the food division to attend the
army schools for cooks and bakers.
After taking the course there, these
men will use their previous scientific
training and experience in recommend
ing Improvements in the preparation
and serving of food at the camps.
They will also receive training at the
Bureau of Chemistry, Department of
Agricultural the approved method of

How Columbus Was MlsIed.

Every schoolboy knows that when
Columbus discovered the island of
Cuba and the rest of the western
world that he did not know he had
discovered new world, but thought
he had circumnavigated the globe and
had found new way to. cross the
ocean to Asia. 1t is curious fact
that the Indians of the island Of Cuba
unconsciously confirmed this belief. He
asked them the name of one of the
villages, and they said, "Cubanaca,"
and Columbus thought that they were
saying. "Kublaikahan," the name of
the Tartar village mentioned by Marco
Polo, whose record Columbus had
read.

Dress in London.

Something might be said of the
changes that three years of war have
brought about in our clothes. Evening
dress is not abolished, but it is becom-
ing much less customary in theaters
and restaurants, and people coming
up TO London who used to bring eve
ming clothes with them no longer do
so. Stiff white collars are disappear
ing, and the soft collar is worn by all
classes. The democratic process had
already set in at the house of COM
mons. One remembers the shock that
Mr.. Keir Hardie's cloth cap created on
its first appearance there, but it has
advanced immensely since the war be-
gan. Frock coats are in small and
die-hard minority. Spats are on their
last legs. Top hats survive miraculous
IL, it might seem. until one remembers
their enduring qualities, so that their
persistence is only form of war
economy after all.

Dear Editor:
| had the privilege Tuesday even
ing of hearing Mr.. Johnson strongly
commend and outline the plan of the
citizens of Annapolis for the estab-
lishment of recreation rooms for the
sailors and soldiers (some forty thous.
and of them) at Camp Meade. The
need of such recreation is horrifying-
ly necessary. No woman can withhold
her active support; and no man with
hold the weight and power of his ex-
perience and vote. The greatest SOL
der In history said that "the morale
was ninety per cent of the battle. +"
Those at home establish that morale.
And this social work; well and untir-
ingly done will reach far beyond any
battle line.
1t IS privilege to reside; if only
for a short time; in q community
where such excellent public spirit is
manifest and where 1t receives the
hearty support of its political repre-
sentatives, the Governor of the State
and the Mayor of the city.
Will the citizens of Annapolis &C.
cept the congratulations and sincere
wishes for the success Of this work
from an appreciative but humble
stranger.

CAN'T DEFLECT ToRPEDOEs
Naval Experts Have Abandoned Hope
In EIecto- Magnetic Devices.

1t was learned recently that navy
experts had virtually abandoned hope
that the anti-submarine campaign can
be advanced by the employment of
electromagnetic devices Much has
been written and said about the use of
such devices to defect torpedoes. and
it has been remarked that probably
such device had been used recently
in DETECTING torpedo fired at mer-
chant ship by German submarine
AT the Navy Department it is assert
ed that no such device is being used
and that hope that such means can be
found to combat submarines was
abandoned some time ago.
Destroyers have been found to be
the most effective weapon against the
German submarines. and they, with
other measures taken by the Ameri-
can, French and British navies, have
been responsible for cutting down the
number of vessels falling victims to
the U-boats.

viii be the very interesting attraction
at the Colonial this evening. The
yacht Palma owned by Ambrose
Raybourne. g millionaire shipbuilder,
steams toward the harbor on its way
from Honolulu The guests, para
sites of bedizened society, have
wined, dined and sung-with empty
hearts. Among them is pearl Elma
RayDourne daughter of the shipbuil-
der. Waberly Todd, man of much
money but little sense, toasts Elma as
his future wife. Annoyed by his
toast, and out of sympathy with the
carousing, Elma, seeks the cool air of
the deck. From the engine room
comes Micah Steele, second engineer
of the Palma" telling her he still
loves her, despite the bitter years.
Todd coming on deck reels drunkenly
to her. but Micah, after cruelty twist
ing his puny wrists, sends him off,
Elma denounces Micah as dirty rot
ter, declaring her hatred for him. A
few moments later there is O terrific
explosion. The merry-makers in the
cabin rush TO the life-boats. Micah
manages to get Elma and two natives
into life-boat, together with jug of
water and his coat. The yacht is
mass of flames and soon sinks. The
next morning finds the two natives
rowing, Micah covering them with a
revolver. Elma asks for water.
Micah hands her the jug, counting
while she takes four swallows of the
precious fluid. When he tells her to
stop, she resents his order, but he
takes the jug away from her, explain
ing that the chances of being picked
up are slim, and the water is all they
have to depend on He puts the jug
to his lips, while she chants in irony
One, two, three, four He then
passes it to the natives.
As a shipwrecked society debutante
who is tossed by fate on to desert is
land in company with the man who
was formerly her accepted lover and
who has been vuined by her father.
Miss Clayton has role of power and
appeal, and Milton Stills, who plays op.
posite the brilliant star, is extremely
pleasing in the role of Micah Steele.

HIS faESENTMENT CAME TRUE
Canadian Soldier Met Death at Front
But Not at All in the Manner
That He Had Feared.

The men of the First Canadian di.
vision who came unsoathed through
the smashing fight at Ypres. the bst-
tie of FeStubert and the Givenchy cy-
clone in April, May and June of 1915,
almost all believed they could not be
killed. They had seen so many COM
rades fall. anu had so many narrow
escapes. that they assumed the bullet
was not nodded that could get them.
One exception was member of the
Thirteenth battalion canadian Black
Watch). He had premonition Of
death and saw his fate in every shell
that burst in sight and every bullet
that tipped past him.
Each time he went into the trenches
he died a thousand times in imagina-
ton, and he was helpless, hopeless,
useless object the last time we went
into the line in front of Ploegsteert
woods. He never smiled. whistled or
sang when in the firing line; he was
literally obsessed with the fear Of
death.
On the morning following his last
night in the trenches he was smiling
broadly. The company were snug In
billets and he was preparing to shave,
whistling as he stropped his razor.
Suddenly careless draft man with
out warning exploded a cartridge that
lay forgotten in the breech of his rifle.
The bullet pierced the brain of the
man with the razor, and he died with
In few moments.
Not till then did his comrades real
lie that his fear Of death was based
upon a presentment that came true,
though not at all in the manner the
unfortunate man expected.-The Wide
