After that we sat around thinking
about sweet potatoes and hash and
steaks, but talking about the latest
books and the moonlight through the
trees. But what is moonlight ON an
empty stomach? Merely moonlight,
nothing more. .

He said he wouldn't be home until
Sunday"
So we went down to the dock: It
was moonlight, and the old launch
coming In looking some way romantic.
What was she bringing us? Some.
thing within me suggested food.
The launch came alongside; a man
with a couple Of grips jumped ashore:
then the boat backed away and umped

Gle, greeting the newcomer. 1--WE
weren't expecting you until next

II know it," he said, "but I got two

''Of course you are welcome" Lu-

to break the news Of the fasting to
him.
"How are you, MontyT he hailed

what the next few days would be like

had some dinner on the dining car this
evening. There was some fried chick

:Looks like q great big pumpkin

I am going to put a new verb In the

Finally Lucille took him one side ana
explained about the fasting. The idea
fascinated him. especially In Its appIi-

HATE THE HUN

After you have read the following,
don't you think it is your duty to hate
the Hun-not with the passionate
hatred that soon vanishes, but with
the cold blooded, calculating hatred
that will not rest until such worse
than hellishness is punished and made
impossible TO occur again;
An Atlantic Port, Oct. 10.-Scores
of American sailors and soldiers were
killed or wounded by shrapnel fired
by German submarine after it had
torpedoed the Ticonderoga 100 miles
off the Atlantic coast, according to
the story told by twenty survivors
who arrived here today aboard a
British freighter.
There were $50 men aboard the
Ticonderoga, an American steamship
Of $50 tons, and all but the twenty
who arrived here today are believed
to have persisted. The survivors got
away in the only boat which was not
demolished by the shell fire from the
submarine, they said. Seventeen of
the men who reached port were men,
bers of a detachment of soldiers de-
tailed to care for horses which were
being transported.
The Ticonderoga was attacked, pre-
sumably October 2, when she fell be-
hind her convoy because of engine
trouble
According to the story of the sur
vivors, the submarine was not sight
ed until she had sent a torpedo crash
ing into the side of the ship. The
torpedo did not strike vital spot,
however, and the captain crowded on
full steam in an effort to escape, at
the same time ordering the gun
crews into action against the sub
marine, which appeared about mile
off.
"Our gun crews did not fire, more
than five or six Shots" one of the
survivors said. "The forward gun
was shot away almost at once. The
after gun and its crew were done for
almost as quickly. Then the men
went to the boats, but it was no use
as the flying shrapnel was spraying
the decks and men fell in scores,
either killed or badly wounded"
Another survivor declared that all
of the Ticonderoga's eight lifeboats,
with the exception of one, were rid
died with shrapnel before they could
be launched. A number of men who
tried to get into the eighth boat were
killed by shrapnel as they clambered
