HOTELS

part Here are the facts.
1t was necessary to have a camp
close To the border, for protection rs
well as for training. The concentra-
ton of FL Paso had not been salts
factory, for several reasons. among
them the difficulty Of keeping the
soldiers ont of the district near the
river, but chiefly because Of the lack
of drill grounds.
TO meet the latter condition, citi-
zens of III Paso offered the govern
ment 10000 acres of ground, some
miles out, at ten dollars per acre.
The military committee investigating
the matter saw no reason why the
government should be called upon to
pay 100000 for camp site when
one with certainty of good water
could be had at Deming free.
There are other reasons. but We
have stated the chief ones upon which
the decision was made.-Albuquer-

WHERE SUBnaaiIsEs GO GUT
With English chzanei Blocked There
Is Only One Open Channel From
German Ports Into Atlantic.

There are two WAYS Of getting into
the Atlantic ocean from German ports.
One is through the English channel,
which has been blocked since the be-
ginning of the war: the other is
through the North sea. which English
naval strategy has thus far failed 10
close.
The narrowest outlet of the northern
route is between the Orkney islands
and the coast of Norway. a distance of
240 miles. But the depth of water at
this point is such that submarines may
easily dive below any mine or net sys-
TEN that might be stretched across the
wide neck of the bottle here.
South Of this line the water becomes
shallower. and mine or net laying be-
comes effective from Marlborough
Head directly across to the coast of
Jutland, passing over the famous Dog
ger bank, with from 60 TO 40 feet of
water, TO the shallower depths over the
Jutland bank. Below that point there
is more shoal water, with frequent
banks and ridges and flats which have
TO be carefully avoided by mariners,
and which make submarine operation
difficult.
The problem, then, lies in the east
ern part of the North sea, where par
ticularly deep waterloo to 500 feet
off the coast of Norway, affords pas
sage for the submarines. German u
boats easily pass from the Baltic
through the Cattegat-an international
waterway-into the deep water found
just off the Skaw at the tip of Dem
mark, and thus into the North sea,
hugging the shores of Norway all the
way.
A stopper in the Cattegat would
solve the problem. and the feat is not
impossible, although England would be
greatly aided by the neutrality of Nor
way and Denmark.
Since under present conditions an
actual blockade is impossible, the evil
has been reduced by canalizing it. In
other words, the navy is forcing the
U-boats to take certain narrow and
difficult channels. and keeping as close
n watch as possible over these routes.
But they cannot stretch nets deep
enough to block the only exit remain
ing to Germany. Perhaps the "new
device" which American inventors
hope will eliminate the U-boat as a
factor in the war has TO do with an
effective stopper for this outlet

SUGGESTIONS OF THE MOON
Luck Depends Upon Various Lunar
Stages, According to Many
Popular Beliefs.

1t is considered unlucky TO see the
new moon for the first time through
glass. To see it outdoors over the
left shoulder is lucky; over the right
shoulder is unlucky.
Letters asking favor should be
written in the full of the moon. In
fact, the full of the moon is lucky for
all events. A birth or marriage In a
full moon is Indicative of prosperity.
1t is considered unlucky to have the
eyelashes cut during the wane of the
moon. They will not grow well, but
will grow awry and fall out. To have
them grow long they should be cut
while the moon is on the increase.
Animals born when. the moon is
crescent-shaped will be weak and short
lived; those born at the full of the
moon will be strong and long-lived.
Trees are thought likely to decay
when cut during a waning moon. The
bacon of hog killed in waning
moon is also said to waste much in the
cooking.

Simplicity in Army Dress.

The London Times reporter who
met General Pershing and his staff
on the occasion of their passage
through the British metropolis was
so much impressed with the SIM
plicity of the officers uniforms that
he described them in some detail for
the benefit of the Thunderers read
ers. Especially did he remark that,
compared to those of the British
army, the Americans uniforms are
unobtrusive. This may comfort some
of our home folks, who have imbibed
their idea of official dress from
watching a parade of the governors
staff, says the Omaha Bee. AS mat
ter of fact, the American army officer
never has been given to excess in the
matter of dress. While he has always
been arrayed more definitely than was
Gungha Dhln. he has at no time
sought to shame the MONDAY sun,
and some of his greatest accomplish
ments have been achieved at times
when his apparel was least impress
sive. General Grant received the sur
render of Robert e. Lee attired in a
battered service uniform, much worse
for hard riding over dusty roads on
that memorable morning, and many
stories are related of how General
Washington went among his men I'M
recognized because of the lack of Off
cial designation.

He rides the bumpers with hobo, he
washes dishes in restaurant, he
sleeps on the park benches and finally
decides to demonstrate the perfection

BADNESS DUE TO PET DOGS
Doctor Holds CANNES Responsible for
Epidemic Which Has Appeared
Among Woman in London.

From London comes a warning TO
women who have pet dogs Since the
start Of the war many English women
have found that they were losing their
hair. A West End hairdresser, obsery-
Ing that he had had more cases of fall
ing hair in the last year than ever be-
fore, regarded worry and grief as the
cause, but physician advances an
other theory:
This explanation is partly correct"
says this physician. THE depressing
eject on vitality of fear, anxiety and
sorrow reacts with serious conse-
quences on the hair. But in my opin-
ion the epidemic, If there is an epi-
deinic, is TO be traced mainly IL infec-
ton from dogs.
Every hair expert knows that in
nine out Of ten cases the premature
loss Of hair is due TO dandruff. That
condition often results from the pres
ence of microbes whose great source is
the dog. Ordinary cleansing with soap
or shampoo preparations is of practi-
cally no use. but simple antiseptics,
such as boric ointment, usually bring
about speedy cure. As preventive
measure dispense with the dog"

First British Martyr.

st. Alban has the honor of being re-
garded as the first British martyr. The
bloody persecution of Dioclesian,
which ragged in other parts of the Ro-
man empire with such terrible fury
that Dioclesian declared the Christians
exterminated, was kept in check in
Gaul and Britain by Constantine, who
governed those provinces with almost
regal authority. But some few are al
legged to have suffered, and among
them st. Alban was first. He shell
tered a priest, whose name was Am
phibalus, who is said to have convert
ed him, and when he could conceal the
priest no longer, he assisted his escape
by changing clothes with him. For this
act Alban was brought before the Ro-
man governor, condemned and be-
headed.

Franklin told us how to outwit the

him, writes Girard in the Philadelphia
Ledger
when about sixteen years of age

by one Tryon. recommending a veget-
able diet / determined TO go into it.
My brother. being yet unmarried. did
not keep house. but boarded himself
and his apprentices in another family.
My refusing to eat flesh occasioned
an incoIEenience. and / was frequently
child for my singllarity. i made my
self acquainted with Tryon's manner
of preparing some of his dishes, such
as boiling potatoes or rice, making
hasty pudding and few others, and
then proposed to my brother that if
he would give me weekly half the
money he paid for my board, would
board myself. He instantly agreed to
1t, and / presently found that / could
save half what he paid me.
This was an additional fund for
the buying of books, but had anoth-
err advantage in it. made the greater

United States when he was eighty-one
years old.
