SAILORS EAT SEAWEED
Victims of Hun Submarine Drift
Eleven Days.
Crew of Norwegian Vessel Picked Up
In Midocean in PitifuI
Condition.

An Atlantic Port-1he Norwegian
steamer Augvald, zoos tons, bound
from French port for Baltimore, has
fallen a victim to a German subma-
rine. A transatlantic liner brought the
news of the sinking of the Augvald in
midOcean and also landed II members
of the crew of 81 men. Three of the
crew We're drowned and the remaining
13 are unaccounted for.
The rescued men were picked up by
the liner after having drifted help
lessly for II days, subsisting most of
that time on seaweed and rainwater
wrung from their clothing or caught
in their caps. They were in an ex-
hausted condition when picked up, but
by careful nursing on board the liner
they had fairly recovered when they
reached here.
According to the crew the steamer
was stopped by shell fire, the crew or
dered into two boats and the ship was
sunk with bombs.
Captain Egge of the Augvald left
the ship with II men in his boat and
1t became separated from the other
lifeboat containing ii of the crew. For
two days the latter boat drifted about
and was then upset in storm. Three
of the men were swept away and the
others managed to right the boat and
bale it out. They lost all their food
and fresh water and even their oars
were gone.
Drifting helplessly, the men began
to suffer for want of food and water.
Seaweed was eagerly snatched up and
chewed and every device they could
think of was resOrted to to catch rain
water. There was a succession of rain
storms and the men were almost con-
tinually drenched. Day after day went
by and finally the rescue ship came
over the horizon and the exhausted
and starving men were soon safely on
the deck of the liner and given every
comfort.

FRENCH CITIES ARE GROWING
Secondary Municipalities and Towns
Are Calming Rapidly by I'M
migration.

Paris.-The statistics for the popula-
lions of the secondary cities and towns
Of France, completed before the exO-
dus from Paris began, show an extraor-
binary increase owing chiefly to the
immigration Of foreign and colonial
wOrkmen employed in munition and
other factories.
Marseilles, with about 100000 inhab-
itants when the war began, has now a
population of more than 100000.
With the many refugees from the
towns about Paris, evacuated because
of the German advance and with some
of the population of Paris which flew
from the big cannon, that figure may
be said to be even higher. Lyons has
increased its population from 100000
to 100000, without including additional
thousands in the suburbs. Bordeaux's
population has risen from 261 ,678 to
$4,000, and the suburban parishes
have grown from $500 to 120S55.
Havre has increased from 1859 to
$4,000 without including the garrison
of 10000 foreigners and $4,000 ref
ugees, mostly Belgians.

Blue GOWNS ARE BUSY

WashingtOn.-Tcach nurses and
healers too, are the blue Gowns" of
the army medical corps, at work now
and "over there"
Reconstruction aids is their official
name, but the CHEEKY hue of their dis
tinctive uniform already has won a
handler name for the special corps of
seventy women whose membership
treats and teaches among the manned
soldiers brought back from the battle
front. Theirs is the work of cOaXing
back the wasted muscles and disuSed
limbs of wounded men, and later by
patient tutoring instilling dizziness in
new arts and vOcatiOns which the hos
pital schools are planning for the re-
turned soldier.
Most of the "Blue Gowns" were re-
cruited from the instruction staffs of
manual training schools and civilian
hospitals.
BESIDE a table a young fellow In
uniform was carving conventional
flower border on a wooden picture
Frame" says an official description Of
their work. "The design was his own
and the work was his first piece. He
was inclined to be clumsy because he
was using his left hand. A Blue
Gown was ready to guide and advise
him. AS he becomes adept in left-hand-
ed carving he is preparing for the time
when he again will begin to draft, this
time with his left hand. This mental
concentration upon a new task is be-
lieved by doctors and psychologists to
be valuable antidote for discourage
ment.
cat the same open-air workshop one
man was knitting a scarf. One group
of men, temporarily crippled, were
carving designs upon wooden blocks,
and several were learning to weave up

In the treatment rooms inside the
'Blue Gowns" were guiding electrical
appliances and administering the COM
plicated series of treatments that per-
feet the restoration work started by
the surgeon at the front.
