Wonderful Police System.

Every one who comes out of Can

ful organization of the northwestern
mounted police. They now have a sys-
tenn by which they call at every home
every day. The police must sign a
register kept in the home and the
housewife must sign on a register
they keep themselves. They also are
required to take a list of all persons
friend or stranger, who call at each
house every day. and if the person is
unknown the housewife must be pre-
pared to give a 1escript- on of the
caller In this way they keep track
of all strangers

Marked Absence of Young Men.

One of the striking aspects OF a visit to
British Columbia. Mr.. Totten said. is the
absence of young men. All persons of
military age have enlisted. to a man. One
sees only men OF forty-five or more on
the strects-and they belong, to the home
guards-and young boys. At Calgary he
saw 4 troop train which were mostly
boys of from seventeen to twenty years.
Logging camps are closed. and the ssw-
mills are stopped forSwant of labor. Many
other industries have suspended.
The spirit of the Canadians is wonder
full Mr. Totteu continued No con-
scription law was needed for western Can
ada. That was passed for the eastern
provinces, where a few OF the French
Canadians. resenting the fact that their
forefathers had been driven from France
declined to enlist. But. western Canada
has far exceeded the largest quota that
would be required CT ii under draft law.
AS wonderful the spirit of dhe men
is that of the women. They are doing re-
markable Red Cross work Last winter
men in the trenches suffered for the lack
of wool stockings Now the women are
knitting them. and sweater. too. so that
the lack may not occur agan this winter.

Careful WhosGets Out.

One thing which struck Mr. Totten
was the close inspection of the Cana
dian immigration authorities when he
lett that country, and the absence of
any such inspection by American Off
Gals When he entered Canada he took
2 boat from Seattle TO Victoria and
tnen only two questions were asked

seem to care little who goes into the
country, but they are mighty careful

United States Mr.. Totten crossed the
border at Portal. and a hundred miles
on the Canadian side of that station an
inspector got on the train and ques-
toned passengers closely about their
nationality, their parentage and de-
scent. inspected their baggage and then
rode to the border with them All this
was done most courteously. but thor

night

fight,
But he went to work with spade
and hoe
And he made ten bushels of Eaters
He mopped the sweat from his beady
brow,
AS he trudged behind the hand-pow
er plow; Z
His hands got tough and his feet got
sore
AS he turned the stubborn burrows
DER
And his neighbors laughed and they
called him slow,
But he made ten bushels of Eaters
Oh, cheer the boy with the sword and
gun,
Who has fought and bled when the
war is done,
And cheer the Generals and Majors
too,
And the sailors bold on the ocean

But cheer the man with his spade and
hoe go.
For he made ten bushels of 'taters
grow.

WATER POWER REPLACES OIL.

(Springfield, Mass, Republican,
Occasionally somebody asks, What
will the country do when the coal
deposits are exahusted?" A common
answer is, "Use fuel OIL"
But suppose the oil gives out;
what then? A practical answer is
afforded by the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul Railroad, which ito
meet the increasing cost of fuel oil, :"
has begun to electrify the Puget
Sound end of it's line. In that part
of the country the st. Paul road goes
through great forests, where oil has
been used because of the danger
from sparks. But electricity is avail
able, thanks to the water power of
the region.
What is practicable in the State Of
Washington may prove practicable in
this part. of the country to some ex-
tent. There is a good deal of water
power in New England running to
waste, and while we have nothing to
compared with the waterfalls of the
Northwest, there may come a time
when efficiency methods will set our
mill sites to work again,
to help out the railroad problem.

THE ZIMMERMAN AND THE
SEWING MACHINE.

The Jessamine News prints the
following item that is at once in
teresting and refreshing, as showing
that all the activities in Red Gross
sewing circles are not confined to the
Red Cross workers:
"Mr. James L. Simpson, the lum-
herman and road builder, had added
a new star to his banner. Sometime
ago he suffered a broken foot while
looking after his road building in
Pulaski county. When the local
Red Cross started their work for
supplies for the army, Mr.. Simpson
donated his time to this worthy or
ganization. He started new role
from former bookkeeper and bank
teller, lumberman and road cOntrac-
tor, his broken foot and confinement
put him in a new and untried field
that of running a sewing machine.
During his confinement he made one
hundred and twentyfour sheets for
army service and presented them to
the local. Red Cross. His great sue
cess in other businesses was truly
manifested in the role of tailor, as in
other lines. So efficient did he be-
come in his new endeavor that he
could actually thread the needle,
and it was a comical and inspiring
picture to see him resting his'bum'
foot on stool and the good one on
the treadle of the machine"

SURVIVORS OF SUBMARINE AT.
TACK ENLIST IN NAVY

Herman L. Dupee, twenty years of
age, from Birmingham, Ala, walked
aboard the U. s. s. Recruit in Union
Square at five o'clock Tuesday after
noon and said he wanted to enlist in
the United States Navy. While he
was being examined by Surgeon ]. J.
kaveney he causaliy remarked that
he had the experience of submarine
gun fire during the past summer.
Dupree had shipped from Portland,
Maine last June on the Norwegian
tanker, "Kongsil" bound for Rotter-
dam. On the return trip in the third
week of August, out four days, from
the coast of Rotterdam at five-thirty
in the morning three shots were sent
across the bow of the tanker. Du-
pree said:
81 was on watch on the hurricane
deck. The weather was clear and
calm. No warning was given except
the three shots. Twenty more were
fired and in ten minutes we were
sunk. The crew of % took to the
three boats and Immediately the sub
marine arose and came within fifty
yards of us. This was the converse.
ton the Captain of the submarine
had with our skipper. 1t was all in
English with no trace of German
accent:
"'How long have you had this
ship?' Said the submarine captain.
"a year and half answered
our skipper.
"'Where was she built?' he asked.
Baltimore was the reply.
"What kind of crew have your
Mixed. Danish. Swedes and Nor
weigans.'
"'Any Americans?'
"'None'"
According to Dupree the Captain
of the tanker asked for a tow and
he was told that an English cruiser
would be along in the morning. The
next day the cruiser came along, but
paid no attention to the men, it be-
ing a rule of the British Admiralty
not to pick up life boats. After
f1oundering in the rough sea with no
rations but a few biscuits and very
little water the men finally landed at
Nazares, France.
Dupree has been three years at sea
having shipped from Norfolk, Va. He
was educated in the public schools at
Birmingham. He was sent to the
Training Station at Newport.
