The City of Pola

The capture by the Italians of the summit of San Gabrielle dominating the plains of Gorizia and mark ing another step toward Trieste makes interesting following description by the National Geographical Society, of Pola, Austrias chief naval base:
 Tn 1900 the population of Pola was about what it had been eighteen centuries before under the rule of Roman emperors During the succeeding ten years however, it grew from 45O0O to 7O,00O
 Situated near the extremity of the Istrian pen nsua, S5 miles by rail southwest of Trieste Pola's sole important activity before the war was connected with the repairing provisioning harboring of the Austrian naval forces The is virtually without industrial establishments manufactures

Work 6y Red Cross Qmd the
 Navy League

A stirring appeal, which no woman who knits, or who can learn to Knit, can possibly refuse, comes from the Natianal Red Cross for 100000 sets of knitted articles for our soldiers and sailors and those of our allies. set consists of sleeveless sweater, muffler, wristlets and socks. The Phoenix Chapter of the Red Cross has prom ised 300 sets and appeals to every woman who may see this notice, to do her bit.
 Already so many offers have come in response to this appeal that it is impossible to acknowledge them in dividually. It is hoped that ship ment of yarn will arrive the last of the week, notice being given through the newspapers
 In addition to the Red Cross re- quest, we are asked by the Navy league, through Captain Mcdonald of the battleship Arizona, to send knit ted articles to the men on the great ship named for our own state. Surely local pride as well as patriotism and interest in the men who are fighting our battles on the sea, will dictate ready response to this request. Everywhere and at all times the women from Maine to California are E, do our share. Only little while, and our boys on the other side will be | suffering from the cold and wet. If every woman in this country will do her bit, much of this suffering may be prevented and many lives saved. | To answer the numerous questions | regarding materials, a telegram from the Navy league of the United States and a portion of letter from the 1 National Red Cross follow:
 i Knitted articles for the sailors, all

 As it is almost impossible to ob- .ain enough of the khaki dye for the regulation materials, it has been de- cided to use grey for the knitted ar

 is therefore not as acceptable as the grey

HORSES STILL USED IN WAR

The impression has been created that. because of the development of the motor ambulances tanks and motor transport trans the horse has become practically obsolete far war is concerned.
 The fact is the animal still is proving an im- portant factor.
 The United States alone has shipped to Europe since August, 1914 nearly one million horses and one-thrd million mules The value of these animals reached $260 900 dollars.
 While the motor car. the tank and the arplane have superseded the horse for in raiding and scouting the animal is left with many of it's former functions, and military experts consider them still indispensable in warfare.
 During the period estimate has been made that five million horses about e-twenteth of the horse population of the world, have been slain.- Sacramento Bee

 There is q lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: out what are they among so many?
 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down. in number about five thousand.
 And Jesus took the lo2ves; and when he had given thanks, he dis tributed to the disciples, and the dis ciples to them that were set down; and likewise the fishes as much as they would.
 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
 Therefore they gathered them to- gether and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley Ioaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did. said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
