To have been school teacher be-
fore entering the sawdust arena as a
bareback rider and then to become
the mother of three OF the most IA
nous equestrians in the world is the
history in a nutshell of Mrs Helen
Hanneford, who with her children

Bailey circus here Aug. %.
From a family Of circus riders who
persisted in the profession during
several succeeding generations, Mrs
Hanneford, as a girl, decided that

sisters and become q professional
rider. She settled down in the home
town, Hackney, a suburb Of London,

The object Of the law permitting
persons 10 be discharged provided

of the classes Of dependents de-
pendent upon him was TO prevent
such dependents becoming charges
upon the American people" the rul-
ing says. "A dependent residing

with especial capacity for taking a
considerable number of mines to
places at some distance from the
German coast.
To Have Greater Radius.
The new boats will have a much
greater radius of action than any
German submarine at present. Lieut.
Commander Claus Hansen. who COM
manded the "U-16" for a time. and
later was given the "U-41" on which
he was killed oft the Sicily islands.
told me that il was not unusual for
him 70 be out 81 days. The new
U-boats. it is asserted, can remain
out twice that length of time. They
carry more than double the number
of reserve tOrpedOes that even the
largest German U-boat can stow
away at present, and they are es-
pecially constructed with large
capacities for fuel and supplies 10

to be fast protected U-cruisers'

ing. Owing To their speed, prac-
tically equal TO the fastest passsen-
ger vessel, and to the majority of the
| fastest cruisers on the water, no
ship could escape by attempted
flight Much lower in the water than
any other craft, equipped with long

WAR GARDENS ARE
BEING DESP0ILED
Patriotic Patches Throughout
City Mecca For Petty
Thieves.

The many people in Mishawaka
who answered their country's call
in the matter Of making war gardens
are chagrined to think their efforts
are being rewarded in a way far
different 10 that anticipated at the
beginning of the season.
Sneak thieves have been at work
in the city for sometime and their
efforts are being centered on these
patriotic patches in different parts
OF the city. Particular attention is
being paid TO these in the Lincoln
garden addition and in the city
park. Much OF the truck planted in
these two places has been bodily
carted away and sold by vendors 10
householders throughout the city.
While these are only two instances
many complaints have been made
that gardens in every part of the
city planted from patriotic motives
have been despoiled and the work
and expense gone to by those own
ing them set at naught.
It has been suggested that the
city administration might do its bit
by exercising some police control
over these gardens. There is a sing
ular absence of crime in the city at
present time and the work of catch
ing these petty thieves might Wei
be given TO the members of the po-
lice force who have time and to
spare.
Complaints are being received
daily by The News-Times, the last
being from a prominent member of
the Woman's club who is anxious
that some of the truck be spared to
the Owners before IL Is too late.
