VIM. Thomas, the telephone
man has been busy this week ex-
planning how it happened. Some
of his friends intimated of course
they knew that it was only a lit
tie family affair, anyway, but
they hadn't realized that Mrs.
Thomas was an expert in that
kind of Establishment. Others
laid it to politics or patriotism
and asserted that William had
probably intended to say "hello''
as usual but had inadvertently
shouted out '.Hoch der KAISER
and the lightning had gotten him
and attempted to print the red,
white and blue on his face. It
was a success as far as the blue
was concerned, and William says
he saw the stars all right. His
stOry-and it ought to be taken
for what it is worth is that in
the darkness of the basement he
ran ker PUNK into the end Of a
projecting iron water pipe which
knocked him senseless and near
~ turned his face inside out.
He says that a strong constitu-
ton and a good reputation has
pulled him through the crises,
but that some of his uncharitable
friends will lack the latter con-
ISOLATION when they try to "run
run their face" on an iron pipe
in a dark cellar.

PETROLEUM FINDS OF GREAT
VALUE IN ENGLAND LIKELY

LONDON, Nov. 17.-It was announc-
ed in the House of Commons this week
that certain eminent American geo
logists, who have come from the Unit
ed States to advise the government,
hold that it is well worth while to
spend a considerable sum of money In
exploring the possible petroleum de-
posts in Great Britain"
The speaker, a spokesman for the
Board of Trade. added 1T is i'm,
possible to exaggerate the Importance
Of finding oil in this country. We can
not yet say that it is here, but it is
certainly worth looking for. Oil is
almost more important at this moment
than anything else. You may have
men, munitions, and money, but if you
have no oil you are without the great
est motive power we are using, and
the rest viii be of little value"

NAVAL BATTLE MAY Be
FOUGHT ON INLAND SEA


KORTTZA, Albania. Nov. ia
n ,oral hattie between French and Ger
NON warships is imminent, which
u,ben it occurs, will not be recorded
i, any official communique, though
f. will be in a way, one of the mast
Anioua naval engagements of the war.
AXE Ochrida is a large body of fresh
wafer living a few miles north of here,
at the point where Albania, Serbia
and Macedonia touch. 1t is 40 miles
long and 90 miles wide, with towering
mountains running around it. The
north end of the lake is held by the
Germans, and the south end by the
Entente Allies. 1t has been the scene
nj the latest hard fighting, when the
Entente trops made forward drive Of
thirty miles from Pagrodak, at the
south end, to Padahoja far up toward
the north end.
With the Germans holding the north
end of the lake, they did not confne
their operations to the land. A minia-
tire fotilla soon made its appearance
with oil-burning launches about Is
feet long, each mounting one gun for
ward. This mosquito fleet soon be-
came real menace, for it darted to
tbe south end of the lake, at night and
bombed the small villages along the
south shore, held by the French, Rus
slams ard Serbs The headquarters CT
General Tarnahoff, of the Russian
division operating with General Sar-
rail. was in one of these villages.
The French soon took steps to
c9un.eract this menace A small
steel craft, thirty feet long, was
brought overland from the French
feet at Saloniki. They mounted two
guns, one aft and one forward. With
4, came commander and a crew OF
French sailors. This was soon fol-
lowed by a second 30-foot boat mount
ing two guns, with its equipment Of
officers and crew
Thus two miniature fleets find them
selves face to face on Lake Ochrlda,
with battle not far off. The French
have the advantage of larger ships
carrying more guns, but the Germa is
have the advantage in number Of craft
Their flotilla consisting of six or
seven 15-foot boats mounting one gun
each.
1t seemed strange as We went along
a mountain road today, tc see the
uniforms of French officers and sail
ors at a point so remote from the sea,
They were in cannon on the way TO
their naval base at the south end OF
the lake. The commander Lieuten-
ant Dutiot stopped for moment and
spoke enthusiastically of his little
fleet
I'm bringing the boats from Salonl-
kl.' he said, we took out the engines,
so that the bulls weighed only three
tons. Fhis made reasonably easy GO
ing on the camions. There was no
mishap, the first boat is launched, with
her engine in place and guns mountea'
and the second will soon follow. And
then" he added with laugh, wen
see who will do the bombarding.
When operations will begin is not
certain but plans are so far advanced
that fight is looked for almost any
time now With such mosquito craft
it might be considered toy battle
il it were not for the reality of the
warfare, with the real naval boats
manned by real sailors of the French
and German navies, fighting with as
much determination as on deck Of
2O000-ton dreadnaughts.

WORKING HORSE IN SUMMER
Large Number Of Animals Lost Each
year Through Lack Of Care and
From Excessive Heat.

IL no Doubt would be one of the
greatest surprises that We have had
Tor some time, were we to realize the
large number of horses that are lost
each year from the lack of care and
from the heat; the time is here again
when we must watch our horses care
f9lly so that they may work safely
and to the best advantage for us dur-
ing the long hot days of summer.
The horse that will stand the hot
weather we'll is the one that has been
Well groomed and cared for, you must
feed your horses well if You want them
to work we'll and if you want to get
the most from your feed you must
keep them clean and comfortable. The
morse that is working hard during the
hot weather should be watered at least
four or five times each day, and every
hour or hour and half would be still
better.
