NAVY GOOD PLACE TO
Save, FIGURES SHOW
On Every Ship There Is a Bank
For Exclusive Use of Ser
vices Economical Men.

Great Lakes, Ill.-The phrase spends
his money like a sailor" is fast becom-
ing obsolete, for the modern bluejacket
generally comes out of the service with
rounder bank account than that or
his civilian brother. With the recent
increase of pay in the navy. savings In
the ships banks have increased enor-
mously. The gospel of saving is
preached continuously in the navy and
with effect.
At the Great Lakes naval training
station, where 1900 jackies are In
training, representing the lowest rank
and correspondingly the smallest paid
body of men in the navy, nearly $780,
600 has been deposited to their account.
The amount is not surprisingly large,
but considering that the average sailor
has been at the station for only little
more than a month, shows that they
have caught the spirit Civilian banks
adjacent to the training station also
carry considerable savings accounts of
the men.
At the training station, as on every
ship in the navy there is bank for
the exclusive use of the men, in
which they can deposit their savings,
which draw per cent interest. SucE
deposits are required to remain in the
bank for the period of the bluejackets
enlistment, and it is not uncommon for
the sailor to come from his cruise with
a good sum set aside for a rainy day.
OF course there are no rainy days in
the navy, as the bluejacket is cared for
in sickness and is always sure of his
job as long as he behaves himself, but
many who leave the service find this
financial backing comes in handily.
There is no small number of men In the
service who boast bank accounts and
investments that would make civilian
considered "well off" In his community.

cred in forty-eight months of difficult
work. Only three or four months of
each year were available to the expe-
dition, since daylight and the Arctic
summers fill only that period. Mr..
Macmillan said explorers must remain
nine months practically idle to accom-
plish twelve months work.
But with Seaplanes," he said, I'VE
can do between breakfast and dinner
the things that now take siXty-four
days with dogs. The use of seaplane
in one summer can result in finding
what took us four years to discover"
Mr.. Macmillan added that seaplanes
would probably be more desirable than
airplanes, since in the summer the ice
fields are covered with pools of water.
If the ice was clear airplanes might
prove adaptable. He does not think
balloons will be successful, since they
must depend on the winds.
How fast can aeroplanes travel
nowadays?" Mr.. Macmillan asked his
questioners-
He opened his eyes wide with aston
ishment when he learned for the first
time that the latest army machines can
do from 125 to $50 miles an hour.
That's the answer to polar work. y
he announced, and he looked out the
window as if he expected to see a line
of airplanes.

Sources of War Finances.

The United States is financed In the
war by loans and taxes. 1t obtains
funds from the people by taxation and
sale of bonds, then goes into the mar
kets and buys from the people what 1t
needs.
There are three sources from which
the country can draw its sinews of
war. First is the fixed property of
the nation, representing farms, fac
tories, mines, railways, and all other
property, including accumulated saw
ings From the body of none of these
except accumulated savings, will the
government obtain war funds and
even from accumulated savings it will
draw a relatively small portion. They
are invested in businesses and indus
tries necessary to the country's well
fare. 1t is only that portion of these
savings that is seeking investment,
that the government will receive in eX-
change for bonds.
The second and great source is a
tax on the wealth produced during the
war. The annual production of farms.
mines, factories and other sources
amounts to fifty billion dollars year,
and out of this will come the funds
with which the country will finance
itself
By taxation this generation will pay
It's proportion of the costs of the war.
BY the sale of bonds, the third source
of income, the next generation is call
ed upon to pay its portion and this
will come from the wealth produced
after the war.
By these three methods the capital
Of the country, its sources of income
and wealth, are unimpaired. 1t is but
the yearly increment of this property
that is called upon to bear portion
of the cost of the war. Thus despite
the waste of war the country may
emerge from the conflict stronger fl
nancially and even more wealthy than
before. The government receives funds
from the people without impairing the
sources of wealth, and passes 1t back
in exchange for the products of the
country.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1917-09-28

Elihu Root, head of the United
States mission to Russia, in his ia
nous speech before the Union League
Club of New York City on August 10Th,
in a severe denunciation of the Ger
man propagandists in America, de-
clared: There are men walking about
the streets of this city tonight that
ought to be taken out at sunrise to-
morrow and shot for treason. They
are doing their work under false pre-
tense; they are protesting to be for
the country and they are lying every
day and in every word. They are GOV
ering themselves with the cloak OF
pretended Americanism, and II we are
competent and firm for our liberty we
will find them out and get at them.
And every one of us can help. not by
talking to each other about what we
hear, but by carrying to the authori
ties charged with the pursuit and de-
lection of traitors, all the information
we can gather. There are some news
papers published in this city every
day, the editors OF which deserve con
viction and execution for treason. And
sooner or later they will get it."
Thus Americas greatest patriot and
statesman warns his fellow country
men of the nations greatest peril, and
the American Defense Society has
brought this issue to federal recogni'
ton which will undoubtedly be fol-
lowed by more definite action against
all publications of this nature.

KISSES HER PUPPIES

Wonderful Extent of Mother Love
Shown by a Yorkshire Terrier.

extent of the mother love of dog was
shown in striking manner by Fannie,
a Yorkshire terrier, the mascot Of the
steamship Navajo, Standard Oil TANK
or, abandoned afire at sea.
Fannie was the mother of six cute
little puppies. Her devotion to her
family had been commented upon by
the officers and crew of the Navajo.
They said they never had witnessed SO
much motherly care bestowed by a
dog. When the vessel blazed up and
the lifeboats were being lowered Fan
ME was seen running about carrying
two of the puppies between her teeth
She finally put them down in what she
must have considered a place of safety
and ran to bring her other puppies
there.
BY the time she arrived with the
second consignment she found the IRE
approaching dangerously near her loved
ones. When she discovered the fire
drawing nearer and nearer in rapidly
decreasing circle she appeared to be-
come crazed with anguish and excite
ment. Howling piteously, she licked the
face of each of the puppies and then
leaped into the sea.

puppies were rescued by the crew.
