FIlIPINOS CANNOT
 UNDERSTANDABLE
 WITHOUT BAMBOO

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 23-United States Marines returning from the Philippines are relating how the Fil- ipinos cannot understand how the citi- zens of the United States can manage to exist without cultivating and using bamboo.
 The Filipinos use bamboo for every thing. They huiiu their shacks from this material exclusively, using stout poles for the supports, fattened-out bamboo for the sides and floors, and bind the whole together with tough bamboo fibre. It is also used for the construction of barrels to carry water, and green bamboo. hollowed out, is used as a receptacle in which the na- tives cook their rice. The friction caused by rubbing together two sticks cut from this useful tree will start a fire in less than three minues.
 The United States marines have convinced the Filipinos that America is very wonderful place, but when told that we do not cultivate bamboo, the islanders are inclined to be bit skeptical.

 Floats Tho Torpedoed.
 The Lucia, 5000 ton vessel form erly belonging to Austria, was requis- itioned for the purpose, and experi- ments were begun. Only recently after about four months of tests and new designing the equipment was com pleted
 Altho no actual test of the Lucia's safety from torpedoes has been mado the mathematical calculations fro..i small scale experiments, says Mir Donald, are considered sufficient proof that even with hole forty feet long blown in her side she would remain safely afloat, supported by the honey comb of cells.
 Each cell is a unit independent of any other for it's supporting quality, and the great number of them, in ad- dition to the ordinary safety devices of water-tight doors ana other water tight compartments on every seagoing vessel, give so great a degree of buoy ancy that two or three torpedoes would not be likely to work havoc en- ough to sink such a ship.

 LONDON, Feb. 23.-Despite the re- quest Of the Bolsheviki government, Germany today declined to stay the march of her invading armies now dosing in on the great Russian capi-
 al. With the occupa:.on of Walk, n 'nesy miles northeast of Riga in the direction of Petrograd and the capture of Buhno in Volhynia, the Teutonic forces are advancing along a front of over one hundred miles; according to a dispatch from Berlin, to the Daily Express.
 Another dispatch says that the com mander in chief of the German invad- CTS is no other than the Grand Duke Ernest Ledwig of Hesse; brother of the former Russian Empress.
