Stories are going the rounds OF the
press as we'll as b. word OF mouth,
that sweaters, socks, ETC., which have
been made by American women, had
notes pinned on them requesting the
soldier who received it to answer and
say how he liked it. That some CT
answers have stated that the soldiers
bought it at a department store.
This would mean that there are trail
tors somewhere. But it seems that the
traitors are the people who started
such stories, for they are not true.
They are pro- German stories told to
discourage the good women from max
ing such articles When traced, moth
ing definite comes of it. Somebody
said so," is all there is to it. Don t
believe such stories unless some real
authority is given.-Ioagmont Ledger

Invents Device For
Cutting Chains OF
Floating Mines

Rotterdam, Netherlands, Aug. IT.
Experiments with a newly invented
device intended to cut the anchor
chains OF floating mines and to pre-
vent them from coming In contact
with q vessel passing through o mine
field, have been conducted here. 1t is
claimed, with success. The contriv-
ance was invented by Rear Admiral
Goedhart Of the Dutch navy.
1t was affixed to a steamship of
the .Batavier Lane for series Of tests
The vessel steamed through field Of
harmless mines with the result, 1t liz
asserted that every mine which bar
red her course automatically was
pushed aside and its anchor chain
cut
The invention consists of a steel
proIongation OF the ships bow, which
Is easily hoisted or slowed away. 1t
extends eighteen feet under the water
and Is designed to push the mine an
choring chains or cables aside to a
distance of fifteen feet from either
side of the vessel. At that point the
cables or chains are clipped and the
liberated mine rises to the surface
fifteen feet from the vessels side.
Having once been passed safely. the
plan is to explode the. floating mine
by shooting at it
After the clipping OF the chain OF
one mine the apparatus Is intended
automatically to become ready te
