HOW ENGLAND SOLVED
THE GLASS PROBLEM

"All sorts of curious problems have
cropped up" says Sydney Brooks in
the March Number of National Ser
vice magazine, lin the course of
this huge enterprise ii. e., the mar
velous reorganization of British indus
try for the manufacture of munitions
of warl. One was the problem of
chemical and optical glass. Without
optical glass of the finest quality an
army cannot be provided with gun
sights, range finders, periscopes and
telescope sights for the snipers' rifles.
Without chemical glass, capable of
standing a very high temperature, no
explosives works can get along for
even a single day. For both these
vital purposes our homemade glass
was all but useless. We depended
on Germany for the best kind of op-
tical glass and on Austria for chem
ical glass. What did the government
do? 1t first commandeered every
ounce of the right sort of glass to be
found in the British Isles. Then it
ransacked America for more. Then it
put the whole problem up to the men
of science and told them to discover
the formulae and the methods Of
manufacture in use in Germany. The
men of science retired to their labora-
tories and in a fortnight reappeared
with all the necessary information"

Business Firms Offer
Jobs to Princeton BOYS

Princeton, n. j., March 81. -
Princeton seniors are no longer job
less. AS a result of market es-
tablished on the campus a few weeks
ago corporations from many sections
of the country are now writing for
employees with an eagerness indicat-
ing a great demand for college men.
Most of the jobs offered the Prince
ton boys are at q salary of from $50
to $40 month, but number of cor
porations offer specialized work at
considerably higher salaries. The firms
who have written to Princeton's job
market include large department
stores, railway companies, public
service corporations, automobile and
other manufacturing plants, broker
age firms and chemical manufacturing
companies. 1t is a notable fact that in
several of these instances firms speci-
fy that they desire men whose ideals
in life are for service rather than per-
sonal gain.
The Princeton committee on busi-
ness opportunities, organized by the
seniors themselves, is now busy at
another angle of the situation, that is,
trying to find men to accept the posi-
tionS.

ARMS AND THE ARMY

I'VE, in England, have learned,
and in a pretty severe school," says
Sydney Brooks, in the March issue
of National Service magazine, what
should have been tolerably obvious
even before experience had driven it
unforgettably into our consciousness:
that armies cannot fight without
weapons, and that raising an army,
drilling it, and training it are
far simpler processes than arming it.
1t is amazing-or would be II
the folly of governments had not long
ago bereft one of the sense of wonder
how often this fundamental prin-
ciple, this almost stupefying common
place, of preparedness is overlooked.
Men talk as though they had really
accomplished something when they
have federalized the National Guard
or added to the numbers of the regu-
lar army or changed this or that fea-
ture of its organization, or voted a
great increase in the appropriations
for the navy. But what they have
thereby achieved, If anything, amounts
to very little, almost, indeed, to moth
ing, unless simultaneously they have
taken steps to insure an ample supply
of munitions. The men you can al
ways get. At the call of the nation
volunteers will always be forthcoming
| in abudance. But if it takes time to
convert them into soldiers it takes far
| longer to furnish them with the all
but infinitely variegated implements of
| modern war;"

again or bother with bungling tape or
plasters.

tween the toes. just shrivel up and lift
off so easy. It's wonderful. You feel no
pain or soreness when applying Ice

JUNIORS BURN
1917 BANNER.
Duncannon Boys Then Place
American Flag on Pole; 1t
Still Waves

Duncannon, Pa, March 27.-Pupils
at the local High school never wait
until the end of the term for the an
nual flag fight. They always have that
battle settled before the advent of the
busy days of graduation. Members OF
the senior class raised a large 1879
banner one evening last week on tl.o
flag pole of the High school. Thes
then cut the ropes to prevent it being
torn down, the certain fate of all ban.
ners in previous years.
The flag pole is much too shaky to
allow much climbing, which dismayed
juniors for some time. Finally, how
ever, the idea of burning the banner
with torch seemed the most feasible.
One was fastened on the end of Ions
pole and the 1917 was soon a few
ashes. Again the juniors were at loss;
they had no banner ready to take the
place of the destroyed one.
Led by Leroy DeHaven, three other
juniors decided to fling an American
flag to the breeze. They knew the
seniors would not molest that flag.
The flag still waves over the school
house.

WARN OF SPRING
FOREST FIRES
Snow Is Rapidly Disappearing
From Woods; Many
Dead Leaves

The annual warning of the ap-
proach of the spring forest fire season
was issued to-day by Commissioner
of Forestry Robert S. Conklin. Re-
ports from the northern counties state
that but little snow remains in the
woods except on the north side of the
hills, and in the southern part of the
State the dead leaves are practically
bare. Twt weeks more of dry wealth
er will usher in the series of confla-
grations which disgrace Pennsylvania
every year.
No fire warden system or method of
protection can reform the born fool
who forgets his fire, says the Commits
sioner. His change of heart must come
from within. Pure carelessness caused
the burning of $50, 900 acres of forest
last year in Pennsylvania, and of over
100000 acres in 1915.
Our working force is as well pre-
pared as it can be with the small
amount of money left from last
year." said the Commissioner, but un-
less we get the active help of every
man who visits or lives near the for
estS we can expect nothing better
than a repetition of last years record,
which was above the average. The
men who take most from the forest
often give least in return, as wit
ness the fact that the heaviest fires
usually occur during trout fishing and
hunting seasons. A man would not
think of burning his neighbors barn
will thoughtlessly allow his brush fire
to escape and burn over his neighbor'S
woodlot, which may contain in embryo
building material for a hundred
barns"
The usaul warning notices are being
posted on the State forests, and the
following suggestions are offered to
those who are willing to help con-
serve what remains of Pennsylvania
forests:
If you see a fire, try to put it out.
If you can't put it out, Immediately
notify the nearest forest fire warden
His name will be published in this pa
per within the next two weeks.
Break your match in two before
you throw it away If you are one of
those who cant see no sense in that
try it.
cigarette stubs, or else throw them
into stream.
Have a cleared spot of at least ten
feet in diameter around your camp
fire, and then be dead sure the fire is
out before you leave it,
II you own or use engines, put spark
arresters on them. 1t may save you
costs and damages later on.
Don't burn your brush on dry,
windy day. If in doubt, ask your fire
warden.
The Department of Forestry is glad
to have you report on the conduct of
its officers, but your report will be i'm
measurably strengthened if it can be
established that you have done your
own duty in preventing and eXtin-
gushing fires.

HOPES FOR TEMPERATE
CHINESE NEWSPAPERS

A new native paper, the Hsin Shun
Pao, has been started at Shanghai
with Chinese and British capital 1t
is received by the foreign press there
with pats on the back. One says:
THE history of journalism in China
has hitherto followed closely on the
lines of the experience of other coun-
tries. During the revolution of 1913
there were few Chinese newspapers
which appeared able to exercise any
restraint upon their language, and
even yet the newspapers of the cap
ital have hardly learned the bounds
of fair criticism, as evidenced by the
protest which the diplomatic body
was recently compelled to make TO the
Chinese government against the in
temperance of local editors. OF such
exurberance time is a great healer;
and in the capable hands of its editor,
Mr.. Hsi Tzu-pei, we do not doubt that
the Hsin Shun Pao will set standard
worthy of the journalism of any
country"

TO START WORK ON
NEW CHINESE RAILROAD

The Chinese ministry of communi-
cation, says the Far East, is complet-
ing arrangements for the construction
of the long proposed railway line to
connect Peking and Jehol. The road
will traverse the districts of Shunyi,
Miyun, Cupeikow and Lanpin, and
will of course open an important field
for commercial development. The
route has already been laid out and
surveyed. 1t is estimated that the con-
struction will take about three years.
and will cost in the neighborhood of
S12 100000 gold to drawn from the
profits of the Peking- -Mukden and
Peking- Hankow railways, $4,000,000
the first year, S3,000,000 the second,
and $5,000,000 the third year. Any
deficit will be met by the fiotation of
short domestic loan.
