submarine construction were toward displaceKnents of 2.0oo,- 5000 and even 5000 tons, Commander Land declared his belief that craft of the eight hun dred ton type are now being most generally built because of the -adapta- bility for all year use.
 Marley F. Hay predicted the devel- opment of a "contra-subnnarine" or a submarine fighting undersea boat which do most of its work while sub merged. Revolutionary but practica ble changes in battery. coming tower and motor constructien will make possible to creation of such a weapon to combat the submarine menace. he said
 Estimates that Germany had in com mission over 700 submarines last May and that she would have in service a total of 1900 undersea craft by the end of the year were discredited by MT. Hay. ss
 "It does not seem possible that Ger many had more than 200 submarines in commission last May he said. In- formation at hand would indicate that the actual recent output has been ap- proximately ten submarines a month. "
 MT. Hay, in discussing the develop ment of the submarine. declared Ger many was the last of the great world powers to admit the desirability or necessity for submarines.

 MRS. E. H. FRISBY

After a period of six months illness and intense suffering, the spirit of Mrs. E. H. Frisby, was liberated at 3:30 D. m. Saturday afternoon, October 20 took it's flight to the Better Land Talitha Penn Frisby, was the daughter of MT. and Mrs, Penn Kirby, whom are we'll remembered by many in and around Malvern. The family resided in the Social Hill vicinity, where de- ceased was reared and resided until her marriage to E. H. Frisby, which took place July 20th 1896. She was born June 18th 1868 and had just passed her 18th birth anniversary.
 At an early age, she was converted and joined the Baptist church, in which she lived consistent member to the day of her death. She was member of the T. E. l.. Sunday School Class and the efficient secretary of same. She was also a member of the Woodmen Circle. She is survived by her hus- band, one. own sister, one half sister two half brothers and a number of step sons and daughters, most of whom were here to witness the funer- al obsequies. The funeral took place Sunday at p. m. from the 1st Bap- list Church and was conducted by her pastor, Rev, J. T. Howell, in the pres ence of many friends and relatives, Rev. Howell whose relations with the family had been so intimate and so pleasant, paid beautiful and fitting tribute to the life of deceased. Many rich floral offerings, the silent ex- nressions of love, were in evidence. Peices deserving special attention are those sent by each the Woodmen Cir cle, the T. k. L. Class, the w. M. U. her step sons and step daughters. The last sad rites which took place at Oak Ridge cemetery were witnessed by a great concourse of the loving relations and friends. Deceased was an intimate friend of the writer and during their many years of intimate and de- lightful association, few knew her as did the writer. She was of that mod est and retiring nature. Entirely un- demonstrative and not of the disposi- tion to draw many into intimate re- lations and intercourse But she was "nure goldo in sincerely. and loyalty of devotion and to know her was to admire and love her. There are few happier homes than the one over which she presided. She was an ideal step mother and each of the large family of step children loved her as an own mother and praise her in the highest and most endearing terms. Perfect congenialitv existed between husband and wife The home environment was ideal and to one whose privelige it has been to often share the delights of this home it would seem mysterious that such perfect conditions should be disturbed or broken, but "God moves in mysterious way, and we are not to question His Divine will. On the other hand, we must console our selves that "all things work together for the good to them that love the Lord. Just a few short years or days those who 50 love you here, will join you in that Morning Land of Perfect Rest' where there is no more night, no pain, no sorrow, but God shall wipe away all tears from our eyes" Until then, Fare well
