Use Glass Bottom Coat
Against the Submarines

Oakland, Calf, Nov. 3.-The play
thing of tourists is to be made into
a deadly war machine. Glass bottom
boats, which take thousands of Cali
fornia visitors yearly over the waters
of Monterrey Bay and Avalon so they
can see the marine gardens beneath,
are to be used to chase the U-boats
from the seas.
This is the information brought
from Washington by Colonel John s.
Irby, new surveyor of customs of the
port of San Francisco, who made the
disclosure in recent talk before the
Advertising Club OF the Oakland
Chamber of Commerce. Colonel Irby
said:
ITO Californian. who must be
nameless, belongs the credit Of de-
vising O. glass bottom boat which, II
is believed, will be effective against
the German submarines. This mar
has so improved on this type Of boa
that a diver may not only be seen Al
great depth directly underneath, bu'
also at a distance on each side and II
front and behind"

HERES SOME FASHION NEWS

The fashion editor of the Woman's
Home Companion says in the Novem-
Der issue:
Fashion has appropriated the hat
that our boys in khaki wear. And
It is called the .Sammie.' 1t is satin,
now the girls are going to wear it, too,
however instead of felt, and black is
the color. There are dents in the
crown just like the real military hat.
Around the crown is gold cord.
"Waistcoats of metal brocade, of
lace, of braided satin are all the rage.
The darker the tailored suit, the gay
err it's waistcoat.
Cali the shops are showing new
neck ribbons. Some about one-half
inch wide are of silver ribbon finished
at the ends with three shaded pink
rose petals. Others e.of black satin
embroidered in beads in Chinese col
ors and finished with bead fringe"

DOES HER BIT FOR
GOD AND COUNTRY

A woman writing to the Hour-a-
Day Club of the woman's Home
Companion says in the November is
sue:
81 have just been reading in a mag
azfne letters from those who, in CIV
ing a son, consider that they have
given their all to the country. 1t
seems to me that the sense of sacrifice
is overdrawn, for the joy and pride
with which I gave my own two boys
far surpassed the grief of parting.
eve are German people. My hus-
band is native born, and when the
war broke out. he answered the call
of his own country. Our boys being
of military age, he wanted the Oldest
to enter the German army, but my
son was firm. No father he said,
7 cannot turn Uncle Sam down that
way. Then my husband urged me to
use my influence with the boy, bat ]
could not do it, though knew 1t
meant the loss oE my husband and
his love, but my heart-ache seemed
paltry in the comparison with the
suffering of the thousands fighting
for the Cause.
Then his anger was very bitter.
He sold our farm, took all the pro-
iceeds and returned to the land which
gave him birth: My son and I have
labored since then to coax US a new
home from some barren ground we
filed on AT last they felt that could
spare them, and one day they told me
they had enlisted in our new National
Army. I was SO wildly happy that
ran to the top Of the hill, back of the
house, where it seemed was closer to
the Great Father who had blessed me
so, and I gave thanks for giving me
such sons"

Three UNITS To
DO CHURCH WORK

Efforts to increase the regular at
tendance and to add new members to
the congregation Of the Third Metho-
dist Episcopal church will be made
under the new system that has been
ipaugurated by the church.
The entire membership Of the
CHURCH has been divided into three dis
tricts or divisions, with two leaders
for each division and these leaders
will look after the interests Of his
section and keep up the interest in
church work.
The Unit leaders are: Division one,
George Ellis and Claude Smelser; d.
vision two, F. Stawnaker and Charles
Leeds; division three, A. Holsinger
and Orlando Coryell. Leaders have
also been chosen among the women
of the congregation to look after the
women's department and the cradle
roll
Last year the total amount paid on
disciplinary benevolences was 500 but
this years mark is set at 1888 and of
this amount $135 has already been
paid.
Much interest is being shown among
members Of the congregation in the
revival services that are being con-
Quoted by the pastor.
