AN ELECTRIC LIFE-BELT.

Submarine warfare has resulted in
numerous improvements in life pre-
servers and life buoys. The passen-
gers on any ship that sails the At
lantic to-day are likely to find them
selves bobbing about in the icy wa.
ters with no support but cork jacket
Some time ago a number of sailors
on a tOrpedoed ship saved their lives
at night by signaling to the rescuers
with little electric flash-lamps. This
principle has now been incorporated
into the latest life buoy by an attach.
ment which carries electric flash,
lamps as a part of it's equipment. The
lamps burn steadily as soon as the
bouy hits the water, and serves to indi
cate the position of the person sup,
ported to any boat that may be search
ing for survivors.

COHEN APPEALS TO FARMERS
TO RAISE FOODSTUFFS

In an effort to divert Kentucky
farmers from the exclusive raising OF
tobacco, Commissioner of Agriculture
Mat S. Cohen and DR.. Fred Mutchler,
Of the Agricultural Extension De-
partment, will conduct mass-meetings
throughout Kentucky, beginning at
greensboro, tomorrow, Saturday, and
going to Paducah, Mnoday, and then
through Southeastern Kentucky, urg.
ing the farmers, as their patriotic
duty, to raise food crops.
Commissioner Cohen said that prob
ably 100000 men will be called to thu
colOrs from the interior States this
month, followed by other calls which
will reduce the number of men engag-
ed IN crop raising, seriously hamper.
ing the tobacco industry and leave the
South in a perilous condition if to,
bacco and cotton are raised exclu.
sively.
"The Department of Agriculture, y
said Mr.. Cohen, regards this as the
most serious situation since the Civil
War. The country's food resources
must be increased many fold to sus-
tain the population, feed the army and
help feed the people of France.
Besides taking this matter up with
the farmers, we are going to arrange
with local banks to advance money to
canning club girls to buy their cans
as the price will be increased several
hundred per cent, probably because
so many factories that have made
cans are engaged in making ammuni
ton.
"The government considers the can
ming club project as exceedingly i'm
portant in the preservation Of the
food product this year. To increase
the food supply and conserve it, is the
patriotic duty as much SO as fighting
for the country, and we will urge the
farmers on this ground to put forti
every effort in this direction"

UNITED STATES TO
TRAIL SUSPECTED SPIES.

WASHINGTON, April "a hall
million postmasters, letter carriers and
field agents for various Federal depart
ments have been set on the trail of
spies or conspiratOrs against
the United States, under government
orders. it has been made known. These
are in addition to the multitude Of
municipal police and detectives who
are being organized into single big
machine to gather information on
agents of foreign governments. The
work is directed by the Bureau OF In
vestigation and Secret Service. Con-
siderable aid also is being given these
government forces by individuals who
have reported persons suspected OF
disloyal acts. The Department OF
Justice counts on much help in the
future from such sources, in response
TO hundreds Of letters sent out recent
~ appealing for cooperation. All CON-
munications are welcomed and treated
confidentially.
At least 100000 city letter carriers
and rural free delivery employees alone
are under orders to scan letters and
packages passing through their hands
for evidence of plots against the ma
ton. Virtually all government em-
ployes are expected to report suspi-
cious incidents, or even scraps of con-
versation, reaching them which might
bear investigation by trained govern
ment agents.

ates on the carbon arc principle, but
by use of powerful current and n
special arrangement of the GORDON

cured. There is little doubt that the
new sear@hlight will do all that is
claimed for it, for the inventor is al
ready internationally famous through
his work in perfecting the gyroscopa

MISS GRESHAM LECTURES
AT THE WOMAN'S CLUB
Discusses "The Br0wninEs ms Lovers
HendinE Selections From
Their Poems,

large audience filed the audito-

afternoon to hear Miss Hattie Belle
Gresham lecture on The Browninga as
Lovers" The Browninss are the
greatest lovers Of al time. and Interest
III their marvellous poetry. their let
ters and the detail of their daily life
never fails.
Miss Gresham discussed at length the
courtship and beautiful correspondence
of the Brownings and read Il number
Of selections from the sonnets and
verse they composed. When the Brown
!ngs first met. Elizabeth Barrett was at
the height Of her fame, and Robert
Browning was only known in small
circles.
When one considers this frail little
woman, with her wonderfully sweet
sense OF humor, and her divine gift
Of verse making. 1t is not hard to I'M
derstand how she kept her soul and
mind so fresh and sweet. AS for Rob
ert Browning. no poet ever lived who
felt so strongly that he had a message
10 give the world.
The romance OF the .3rowninss'
cour,ship and life together is one of
the most inspiring and beautiful that
we know. Their marriage caused
sensation in literary circles, and
Wordsworth is quoted as saying. well.
hope they understand each other"
The BrowninEs were friends to Ten
nyson, Ruskin. Carlyle and a Eoodly
number OF other distinguished writer's
and poets and their home in Florence
was the center OF charming literary
circles.
Every scholastic and social honor
was given Robert Browning before he
died. He was always young and his
poetry speaks of that eternal youth in
every line Of hope and courage.
Miss Gresham read several selections
10 illustrate the philosophy Of life OF
these two wonderful lovers and poets.
and concluded with Robert Browning's
magnificent poem, "Prospicc." Miss
Gresham had an interesting class in
Browning last year. and is we'll known
