The British tank, which is un-
doubtedly the most wonderful
fighting machine ever intro.
duced in warfare, continues to
be one of the biggest assets in
the hands of the Allies in their
terrific conflicts with the Teu-
ton forces. These monsters,
which can ride rough shod over
the enemy's trenches without
any interruption, have in a
measure revolutionized all
methods of modern war engage
ments. These are the first pic
lures showing the tanks being
repaired on the battlefield. In
the upper picture the monster
is shown just after it emerged
from the battle with damaged
caterpillar belt, but not out of
commission by any means. 1t
will be noticed that the en-.
trance to this fighting monster
is obtained by a side opening,
where the operators of the
death dealing wagon can secure
themselves while they pour
forth vollevs of destructive
charges. The lower picture
shows one Of the tanks after an
action has been fought and won.

Makes x-Ray Better.

The X-ray has become indispensable
to the modern surgeon, and improv-
ments are always being made upon it.
A recent one is device which, after
revealing the location of an injury or
diseased spot, enables the surgeon to
keep it in sight as he operates.
A frame work going around the sur
geon's head is fitted with microscope
an instrument by means of which
objects revealed by the X-rays are
made visible to the human eye.
The patient is placed on special
operating table with the X-ray turned
on and the surgeon can work easily,
since he sees what is before him con-
tinually instead of having to work
cropping from the remembrance of
what was revealed in the X-ray photo
graph.

PORTO RICO DRY
VOTES SURPRISE

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico.-Nobody
for prohibition but the people. This,
il. substance, seems to be the final
analysis of this weeks referendum on
prohibition, the first question ever
submitted to the electors for decision,
and which, because Of the very large
prohibition majority, has very much
overshadowed other details of the
general, election with the possible ex.
ception of the large gains made by
the Socialists. The official count of
the ballots may change slightly the
first figures, which show approx
mately 100000 favoring prohibition
and $1,000 against.
The outcome of the vote has been
almost as great a surprise to the pro-
hibitionists as to their opponents on
account of the big majority. Even
the host hopeful of the dry leaders
did not at any time expect a victory
carried by such a margin, while 1t
may be said that until the returns
commenced to come in election night
the anti-prohibitionist we're abso-
lutely confident they would win.
All Oh ING Cdu5cS up W IuC
returns probably will never be known
or agreed upon by every one, but on
the surface, at least, and aside from
any Of the fundamental questions in
volved, the anti-prohibitionists now
admit they were considerably handi-
capped by the official emblem which
, appeared on the referendum ballots.
An act Of the legislature, providing
for the election, specified that the
emblem Of the prohibitionists should
be the coconut, and the anti-prohibi-
tionists the bottle. At the time. the
emblems we're adopted little attention
wan paid to them and it is not be-
lieved that any one even suspected
the big part this choice of emblems
might play. The prohibitionists were
not then organized for the campaign
that was to follow and neither were
their opponents. Votes for prohibition
were indicated by a mark under the
coconut, those opposed under the bot.
| tie.

FORCES HEARD

License conditions in Boston were
declared recently to be unsatisfactory
in dealing with the liquor traffic, by
temperance experts speaking before
the Chicago city council committee
on license, which is visiting several

On the other hand it was stated that
there had been a distinct improvement
in moral character of Boston within
the past four months through the
new rules respecting the conduct of
cafes and especially with regard to
serving Of liquor to women.

new MEXICO in
ACTIVE BATTLE
FOR PROHIBITION

SANTA FE, N. M.-Prospect of ma
tional prohibition through the food
bill has caused no abatement in the
activity of advocates of prohibition for
New Mexico. The amendment to the
constitution providing statewide pro
hibition, effective January 1, 1918, will
be submitted to the people on Novem-
Der s, and the prohibition forces are
now engaged in a vigorous campaign
in every county IL the state.
The principal effort is being d.
rected toward getting out the prohibi'
ton vote in its full strength, it being
felt that If those who favor prohibi'
ton go to the polls there will be no
question of the success Of the amend
ment by an overwhelming vote. lnso'
far as can be ascertained by indivi.
dual expression, there Is no active
opposition to the amendment. Up to
this time opponents Of prohibition
have placed no organized effort on
foot aud there is no evidence that
such an effort will be made.
Tho attitude Of the native or Span
ish-speaking people, who constitute
about so per cent of the total vote
is strongly in favor of the amend
ment. This seems to be especially
true in the country districts where
prohibition sentiment seems almost
unanimous 1t has been inttmated
that liquor interests might rely or
popular indifference and a whirlwind
campaign Just before the election.

Instead of thy fathers shall be thy

There il familiar painting entitled,
'0The Spirit Of rs" There is group
Of sturdy Colonials, father, son and
grandson, marching. One Is playing
a fife, another Is beating q drum, and
the third Is carry the flag. And how
much the picture suggests. Its at
mosphere Is compelling. The new era
called and men staked their all for
liberty. The picture brings before US
at this time such names as Adams,
Hancock, Franklin, and washington.
They make the story Of the nation q
living, thrilling reality.
The question which we would raise,
however. concerns not them, but their
political posterity. Would their spirit
persist? Would their passion for de-
mocracy survive their passing? Would
their souls find new incarnations
through the ages2e Or would the ma
ton which they created lose its pas
sion for human rights and capacity
for high daring, and became fabby?
MANY there are who bark back to the
mast. who cry, "The Golden Age was
Yesterday" Are these right? Is the
spirit Of today worthy of their yes
terday? Have the fathers built in
vain? Or are their unfinished tasks
and ideals made perfect and realized

And the spirit Of 81 was The Union

fought the night and kept faith with
