tramp steamer was crossing the North
sea when a submarine ordered the
crew to abandon ship. So sure was
the German Of his prey that the bombs
with which he intended to sink the YES
sci were brought on deck around the
coming tower.
The commander Of the tramp steam
er by careful maneuvering brought the
submarine within range Of his conceal
ed armament SO that 1t required only
a shell or two to explode the bombs
and blow the U-boat out Of the water.
Capt. Gordon o. L. Campbell, then
commander, was decorated with the
Victoria cross and the D. 8. o. In 1915,
being the first to receive these orders
without the nature of his heroic deed
being made public. It was announced
early in 1917 that the reason for his
decorations would be made public af-
ter the war. He was grven special pro-
motion over the heads Of about TOO OIL
GERS. and current rumor In London in
July, 1917, ascribed his rapid rise to
work against the submarine. Captain
Campbell gained the military cross for
bravery in handling tank when that
weapon was first used by the British
in the summer of 1916.

TANK UNIT Is READY

1t will fight and the training 1t has
undergone the American contingent
will prove itself exceptionally efficient.
Further cause for believing the
American Tank Corps will live up to
the estimate Of the British instructors
is the character of its personnel. both
men and officers. They are carefully
selected men, picked from the t'nu-
sands who volunteered when the call
for tank men was made. Two base
requisites were insisted upon: First,
every man must he physically fit. ana,
second, temperamentally adaptable.
The training every man has received
has meant either that he is delivered
to the commanders at the front as II
wonderfully efficient unit or is merci-

GERMANS sEER-PoIsoNEp.

This from an article by Professor
DAILY Of Harvard, in the New York
Times:
"A mildly alcoholic state is usually
not conspicuous by a very decided lack
Of efficiency or of SOCIAL decorum In
the poisoned man. Hence the effects
Of steady beer drinking are not as
striking as in the case Of persons pol
soned with. whisky, rum, or absinthe.
Yet venture the hypothesis that life
long drinking Of mild beer has been
one of the most potent causes for the
amazing brutalities Of official Ger
many. Those crimes have been or
dered by men who, for decades, have
been poisoned by beer. In times Of
peace and quiet the poisoning causes
arrangement of brain tissue, often e1-
pressed merely In some form Of senti-
mentality, plain or maudlin. II, how
ever, the victim Is put under stress,
his nervous disorder is likely to lead
to bad temper and bad judgment, with
endless possibilities in the way Of loss
Of dignity, poise. and the sense Of hu-
man fellowship. The final result here
considered Ii the development Of true
savagery."

WASTING FOOD, LABOR, LIFE.


These are the chief factors in win
ming the war and the liquor men are
wasting all three!
They are wasting food. Last year
the waste amounted to 100000, 900
pounds Of foodstuffsi And they have
no right to starve some men by making
others drunkl
They are wasting labor. About
100000 men are engaged in the
manufacture, sale and distribution
Of booze-in breweries, saloons and
restaurants. as brewers, bartenders
and waiters-at q time when every
man is needed in some useful occupa-
ton to help win the war. The labor
Of these 100000 men Is worse than
wasted-no possible good can come of
It, but much harm is done.
They are wasting life. Bartend-
ers, brewery workers and walters
In saloons lose an average Of six
years Of life on account Of their
occupations. II the 100000 men who
make and sell booze lose an average Of
six years Of life, 1t makes a total Of
100000 years Of life. The average
man works about 80 years-so that the
liquor traffic is using up the equivalent
Of 10000 men in each generation. And
this Is too great price for the nation
to pay.-Charles Sickle.

Trained by veterans of the British

Of the American crews have expressed
their approval Of the manner in which
their pupils have adapted themselves
to the operation of the machines and,
unless they are mistaken, the men
whose training in England is just be-

roles. Their machines have the hest

tanks and the training of the men has

gained by the fighters Of France and
England.

interesting Revelations Made Regard
Ing Work Of British Mystery ships
Which Play Important Part In
Antl-submarine Warfare.

London.-Interesting revelations re-
garding the work Of British mystery
ships which have played an important
part in antisubmarine warfare are
made by the naval correspondent Of
the Times. They show how British
seamen have met German craft and
cunning with British craft and cum
ming.
Until this week the public has known
nothing about the mystery ships.
known In the navy as the %" ships,
although several officers. notably Capt.
Gordon Campbell, have been decorated
for their services on these vessels. De
tails now can be made public, as the
Germans are becoming aware through
bitter experience Of the methods used
against them.
"Baby' Blows Up Diver.
How s'woman and baby" accounted
for U-boat is told by the correspon-
dent. The submarine ordered ves-
sci to surrender and fired few shells
Into 1t. The boats then left the ship,
leaving on board a woman who ran up
. and down the deck with baby In her
arms, as II mad.
The U-boat came alongside the yes
sci and the woman hurled the baby"
into the open hatch. The "baby" ex-
ploded and blew out the bottom Of the
submarine. The woman" was deco
rated with the Victoria cross.
The correspondent says that the lirst
mention Of mystery ship was in the
case of the Baralong, which on August
10. 1915, sank a U-boat after the tor
pedoing OF the British liner Arabic.
It will be remembered, he says. that
the German government protested that
there was nothing to indicate the Bara-
longs warlike character. The Bara-
long case was probably not the FIRST
in which ruse was used, and since
then the Disgusting of armed vessels as
innocent merchantmen for dealing with
submarines has attained considerable
dimensions.
"Howls and moans," adds the naval
correspondent. "went up in Germany
about the treachery of British seamen.
but the German allegations curiously
ceased at the beginning of 1915. These
allegations afforded typical example
Of German mentality, for they ignored
the fact that in every case the U-boat
was an actual or potential assailant
and any ruse of war is considered legit-
Innate by them except when employed
against Germany"
1t should not be forgotten. he con-
tinues, that the Germans designed
mystery ships for commerce destruc-
tion. The British commanders showed
much ingenuity in devising plans for
trapping submarines.
Haystack 10 Floating Fort.
In addition to the woman and bnby''
case, the correspondent mentions the
story of a retired admiral, serving as
a captain, who placed haystack on
board an ancient-lOoking craft. When
the U-boat ordered her to surrender
the Germans were astonished to re-
ceive a broadside from the haystack.
