TWO FRENCH Mine
SWEEPERS ARELOST
cOASTGUARD BOATS SEARCHING
LAKE SUPERIOR SHORES
FOR WRECKAGE.
76 OFFICERS AND MEN MISSING
The cerisoies and lnkerman Were
Each $50 Feet Long and Were
Built for Ocean Service.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. = There
seems little doubt here that the
Cerisolles and the Inkerman, French
mine sweepers, which became separ-
ated from the Sebastopol and disap-
peared in Lake Superior in the gale
the night of November "a, have been
lost, with their crews, comprising 76
officers and men.
The shores of Lake Superior both
north and south are being searched
for wreckage by government coast
guard boats and the steamer Huronic
of the Northern Navigation company
is making trip of exploration among
the islands.
Captain M. Leclerc, of the French
navy, who was in charge Of the three
mine sweepers, of which the Sebas-
topol alone, arrived after a hard fight
with the storm, came back to the 500
from Kingston, Ont, to make ar
rangements for a tug to explore the
uninhabited stretches of the north
Canadian shore. He gave a graphic
account of the storm which his ship
weathered and expressed belief the
missing ships either foundered or are
wrecked on some remote shore.
The Cerisoles and Inkerman were
each $50 feet long. They were travel.

HAVE No USE FOR SHOES
Natural Antipathy Displayed by Ma
tVes of Africa to Any and All
Kinds of Footwear.

Among native African men living
near mission stations boots are often
worn on Sundays TO go TO church I'm,
or rather with. for the footwear is al
most invariably carried slung over an
arm or shoulder, this being more COM
Portable for the feet and less wearing
on the boots. Still, on nearing the
church, they are put on with much
seriousness and Importance; the more
shuffling and noise they make the bet
ter, and should a pair creak badly the
JOY of the wearer and envy of his
friends are beyond all description.
"This natural antipathy to wearing
boots" says Professor Holloway in the
Wide World, docs not apply to South
Africa. In some colonies where native
troops are supplied with boots when
on the march, they will beg the Off
GERS permission TO walk barefoot and
In comfort. / remember a coal-black
Sudanese, fine old soldier well over
six feet, who was doOrkeeper at a
friends house in Khartoum. When
ever called after saluting he would
solemnly put on his boots before TAX
ing my card and on his return immedi-
ntely take them off. and In his deep
voice rumble out whether or not his
master was at home. He was quite
under the impression that this was the
correct thing to do"

The Mental Uroe

What a man thinks sets the limits
to his ability. Life is not so much a
lottery as proof Of self-estimates
It's facing the facts that are with con-
hdence of what ought to be. When the
world hollers "down" the man fit TO
lead crawls from under the scrimmage
and scampers over the goal line. It's
not the "sure thing" but the thing
man makes sure who writes his name
on flames tablets and erects victory
arches to his memory. Mental might
Is the reaction of self-discovery
proved by conduct. A few mounting
cycles reveal the bee line and nothing
can hinder the resolute soul from wing
Ing toward its merited destination
Folks call 1t luck, good fortune and a
thousand pet names when it's just
right thought "kept agoin'."

Two years ago Governor Sleeper

this second message, but just how

"LETTERS-F TROMBONE" WEEK
War Department Commission Wants
Soldiers Kin to Help Maintain
Morale Of Army.

New York.-The week Of December
10 has been designated by the war
department commission on training
camp activities as a time for special
letters to be written by mothers,
fathers, sisters, wives and sweet
hearts of the men now overseas. The
week has been called "Letters-From-
Home" week, and the purpose is to
apply the home touch" to a broad
gagged military program for main
tanning the morale of the men who
find themselves idle after weeks OF
strenuous fighting. The war depart
ment hopes, through these letters, to
keep the men contented, straight,
and ambitious to live up to the high
ideals of American manhood.
A model letter such as the govern
ment wants the mothers and fathers
especially to write has been prepared
by the war department. This, with
letters from Secretary Of War Baker
and Raymond b. Fosdick, chairman
of the commission, indorsing the plan,
has been mailed to newspapers
throughout the country. The letter
particularly asks that the men over
seas direct their attention to whole
some recreation and activities, in
stead of to the unwholesome influ-
ences that might result from the en-
forced period of idleness wherever
large bodies of troops are awaiting
orders to return home.

CAP WORK EXPLOSION KILLS 10
Many Injured; Blast Shook the Coun-

Pompton Lakes, N. TEN men
were killed and 20 injured here by
four explosions which destroyed the
detonator assembling building of the
Du Pont Cap works and shook the
countryside for miles around.
Fire which followed the explosions
was confined to the one unit and
property loss was said to be slight.
With the first blast, hundreds of
men, women and children who had
relatives working at the plant hast
ented to the scene, but because of
possible danger to them guards bar
red them at the gates.
Officials of the company said they
feared that five of them may die.
The injured were rushed to the
company's hospital at Haskell. 1t is

set off the stock in the building
which, officials claimed, contained
only rs or 80 pounds of illuminate.
The assembling building, located
on slight hill, was widely separated
from the other units comprising the
plant, which are scattered for two or
three miles up narrow valley The
killed and injured were all at work
in this structure, but officials said a
few others also employed there had
escaped. The company employs about
1000 persons at its Pompton Lakes
plant.

ViTEF AN UNITS T0STAY ABOARD
Baker Says Tried Fighters viii Com.
pose Army of 100000.

Washington.-Secr Baker gave
1t as his opinion that no veteran divi-
sions of the American army in France
will return home before peace formal
ly is declared. He indicated the tried
fighting men would compose the bulk
of the forces to be kept in Europe for
the present.
Heretofore the understanding has
been that the Rainbow division and
two or three other famous units
would be brought home soon, leaving
their places to be filled by new
corners.
Several divisions which have seen
much hard fighting are assigned 20
the American army of occupation
marching into Germany. Army Off
GERS say that it was necessary to
make up this army of tried troops be-
cause there was no saying what will
eventualities might come to pass.
Recent dispatches from France
have said that an American army Of
l,250,000 was to remain in Europe for
duty until after the proclamation of
peace and some veteran divisions in
addition to those now marching into
Germany probably be included in that
force.
