"BLIMPS" NEW TYPE
 SCOUT DIRIGIBLE

The United States is building "Rlimps,' the new type of scouting dirigible originated by the British. The main feature of the American "Blimps," according to the Popular Science Monthly, is the addition of blower driven by cycle-motor and of d second airbag or ballonet with valves to shift the air at will from one bag in front to another bag in the rear. As a result, the ship can he trimmed Chat is, it's flOtation in front or in the rear can be in creased at will by driving the gas MLere there is less air) even while it is at rest and the eleavtor or yer tical rudder is powerless. Curiously enough, there is TO provision for drlv- ing the blower from the main engine. Hence, the fate of the American Blimp depends on the doubtful en- durance of a two horsepower cycle

Power of the Food Control Law

An Associated Press dispatch O. yesterday told the story of a who was arrested for refusing 10 sign food pledge and for threatening to use
 shotgun against anybody who tried to interfere with her culinary arrangements or her table We suppose most people did not know that that could be done but the fact stands that it was done and will probably always be done in similar circumstances.
 Perhaps the would not have been disturbed at any rate at that time if she had mildly but firmly refused to sign the pledge card But the manner of her refusal and her against representatives of 1he government brought her into trouble.
 Few people realize the great power that exists in the food control law person property There is ID limit beyond which it may not go to meet the necessities of the nation war. It amounts almost to suspension of constitutional guaranties. Rights which people believe to be personal intimate and sacred stand aside for the common good in the face of the enemy
 The who declines to cooperate for the conservation of food or assisting to send it where it will do the good for the preservation of the nation, will find their rights privileges con- scripted, along with the young men of the nation and the wealth of the nation
 Some people are voluntarily observing wheatIess days and meatess days. Theyg think they are doing so merely because the food Administration has re- euested them to do So. Some are. paying no atten- ton to such requests, but as the public need arises they will be told what they may use as food and when they may use it. They will be authoritat- lively informed and requested At the same time they will be given protection against the rapaoty of retail dealers food stuffs Great is power of the administration and may be exercised as fully the needs of the nation may require No privilege can stand against national necessity

Branches were opened at the forts around New York harbor Rooms were secured in the Post Exchange buildings ard rented quarters where the men met to read, write, play games or at tend lectures, religious meetings and entertainments. The secretary in charge was a friend and counsellor, and helped to smooth out rough places in the lives of the men who came to him for advice. In a short time the demand for Y M C. A work in the army became so insisNslt that branches began to spring up, extending from one coast to the other.
 Army men are well trained and dis ciplined, but, unfortunately, the en- virons of army posts are too often the saloon and brothel and the men are tempted to spend their leisure time in these places. By substituting clean games, motion pictures, reading rooms, educational classes, religious services and athletic championships in build ings equipped with pools, gymnasiums, etc, tdhe association has gone along way toward saving men from mis- takes that generally occur because of a lack of something to do to relieve the deadly monotOny of their lives

HAVE MANY
 UNNECESSARY RUNS

Because it was Halloween and be- cause that is the night of the year when some people think all sorts oI pranks are permissible, four or five false alarms of fire were sent in between r 30 and II o'clock last even ing. In each instance the fire de- partment made ready response al- though in starting out they felt in 5tinctively that they were having their trouble for nothing.
 And then a genuine call came in
 when smoke was seen issuing from the basement of the Jefferson hotel. In the confusion, part of the depart ment hurried to Central avenue and Adams street, understanding the call
 to have come from the Hotel Adams
 No. l company, however, went to the Jefferson and there found that some oil from a motor in the base ment had become ignited and was sending out dense clouds of smoke.
 There was nothing dangerous about the fire, although it was one of the dirtiest fires to fight the department has encountered in many months. The smoke was heavily laden Mlt.l oil and the firemen were quickly black from head to foot They suc-
 ceeded in extinguishing the blaze
 after half an hours work. Although there was a large amount of smoke. it was admitted that at no time was there danger of the building actually
 becoming afire and that the loose 1 oil would have eventually burned l. self out even if the firemen had not 1 been called.
 1 It was while the firemen were working at the Jefferson hotel that | two false alarms came in from Ninth
 and Washington streets, calling out No. company which had previously 1 been in reserve and had a compar- 1 atively quiet night.

Some may think that after months C. war should be farther along than are, but after all we've done pretty we'll There has been some ex- perimentng, some back-tracking, but started again and each start brings us a little farther along The trouble has been the difficulty of adjust ing ourselves to war condtons-in realizing that we were really at war

 At first only the wholesalers felt the hand of the food administration. Then it reached farther down the line we're the verge the actual fix ns retail prices and the elimination of the profits of all the who handle food stuffs. We told at first that there would be attempt to late retail prices. But it has been found that the only method of compelling fair play is to use the power cf the government to prevent profiteering. Through the control of transportation and the dicta ton of large dealers it has been found that price fixing is an easy matter.
 When some sugar dealers who still adhere to the cutworn principle of supply and demand and believe u extracting the last penny of profit, raised prices IS the sugar famine in the began to be acute, they that food administration had the power to shut off their supplies. very few will to put an end to this of extortion
 Here and there find individuals who are dis posed rebel against the authority of the food trollers.

 Price control is in the interest of the mass of the people. and while errors may be made there is no doubt that the system has come to stay as long as the lasts and will be steadily extended And after the war?

THOUGHT OFFICER
 WAS ONLY BELL HOP
Saturday Evening Post)


 On the subject of uniforms there is much to be said. In one respect Jacky has a distinct advantage over his off Cers-he is never mistaken by civilians for anything he is not. Every man, woman, boy or girl knows him for blucjacket as far as he can be seen. But many an officer going forth in the glory of a fresh uniform has had de- cidedly disconcerting experiences with d sadly indiscriminating public.
 Ensign Blossom, whose duties take him to Chicago daily, makes this con- fessiOn:
 ''I was enlisted from civil life to dc special work. Naturally when I was dressed in my first uniform I was not wholly unconscious of that fact. On the way from the administration build ing, at the Great Lakes station, to the entrance gates a hundred or two hun dred Jackies gave me the salute due an officer. Being entirely human, this didn't exactly tend to reduce my chest measure. On the train to the city sev- erai bluejackets saluted me and I had chance to note the effect of this on the civilians who saw it.
 But in the big Northwestern station l had surprise coming to me. I had hardly entered it before well dressed
 
 that she would likely inquire about vis- itors' day at the Great Lakes station l responded at once. Pointing to pile of luggage at her feet she crisply ordered
 Take it to the taxi entrance please"
 "A grinning redcapped boy arrived at that instant, and as l turned away I heard him explaining that she had | called a naval officer. Later in the day l went to keep an engagement at the roof garden of the La Sale hotel The elevator boy stopped me with: Say-all you band men for the | service elevator in the rear..' 1 Yes? 1 responded and entered the | car.
 After looking me over again he re- marked:
 Guess it's on me, cap! This towns swarmed with Modern Woodmen for a week-but most of 'em carries their axes with 'em.'
 At another hotel rancher from Wyoming took me for a bellboy. But the public is rapidly learning to rec | ognize the naval uniform. Few weeks pass when the training station is not visited by ten thousand | civilians from all the states between the Alleghenies and the Rocky Moun- tains; and these visits are teaching the public not only to identify the various | uniforms but to know scores of other and more important facts about the navy

When Arizonas soldiers arrived at Camp Funston the first thing they did as soon as they had a minutes time of their own was to look about for a place to sit down and write a letter to the folks back home
 They didn't have far to look, for right on the camp grounds is big building, one of the biggest of those on the~ground. It was into this building that the boys filed, where they found not only place to sit down, also desks, writing paper, envelopes, pens, and ink.
 That is just one phase of the great work the Y. M. C. A. is doing for the Joys who have left their homes and zone into the army. How is it that the " is so well established in the army . Here's the story:
 On April 20, 1898, three days after var was declared on Spain, a little group of men gathered together to dis cuss the need of association work with he troops. The result of their work in camp and field was so valuable, that at the close of the war, when the volunteers were being mustered out, President Mckinley and leading off, cers of the army requested that the work be organized on a permanent ba : sis for the regulars
