WHY

The commander of submarine must
lie In wait for his quarry with the
nose Of his boat pointing In the direc-
ton where he expects the enemy's YES
sci to pass. Then he has to estimate
the speed OF the approaching ship and
her distance and to fire the torpedo
ut the point where he calculates she
will have arrived when the torpedo has
finished it's run.
A naval officer says: IF any one
wishes to appreciate some Of the diff
culties Of submarine work let him sit
down under chart Of any portion of
the seas-say. the English channel
suspended from the ceiling; let him
punch a hole through 1t, and above
the hole place piece Of looking glass
inclined at As degrees.
"Let him further imagine his chair
and glass moving sideways as the eff
feet Of tide. Let him occasionally fill
the room with steam to represent mist.
Let him finally crumple the chart into

NEVADA DIVORCE LAWS EASY
Marriage Ties Easily Severed After
Suffrage ls Granted.

Nevada is offering us a most per.
feet example OF the good woman's
loss of influence by entering politics.
The easy divorce laws of that state,
In force until three years ago, were .
national scandal. This was realized
by certain women of the state, who
In consequence brought their moral
influence to bear upon the legislature
for the repeal Of these laws. Their
efforts we're successful and the laws
were repealed. Woman suffrage was
granted In Nevada last fall, and one
of the very first acts of the legislature
was to re-enact the easy divorce laws!
These women again protested, but
with no success. They were now vo-
tiers, and the legislature knew per.
fectly we'll that plenty Of womens
votes could be secured to Offset those
of the protesting women. The moral
influence of this minority of Nevada
women who cared for social better
msnt was gone since the vote had
been given TO al women.

HOW THE BRITISH NAVY
OV HAS KEPT OCEAN

OPEN TO WORLDS TRADE,
During June alone British ships
steamed 5000, 900 miles, SO says
the head Of the British govern
ment as he points out the pic
ture Of the work Of the British
sea dogs-the watchdogs along
all the lanes Of the seven seas.
Added to all else, the British
fleet has made secure for trade,
measurably so, the sea traffic of
all waters, and not a German
flag aside from those Of the sub
marines has dared to show IT.
self. At first a raider or so ap-
peared and was shot to pieces.
Well does the British premier,
without any disparagement to
the other allies. point to the
fact that the German land Of
fensive might have been disas-
trous If successful, but the sea
offensive would have been fatal.
The possibility of American
transportation to the war areas
would have ceased with destruc-
tion Of the British fleet France,
Italy and Great Britain threat
ened with starvation-the war
would have been over. The
British navy at the outbreak Of
the war had a tonnage Of two
and a half million; today 1t has
a tonnage, with auxiliary ships,
Of eight million. It's vast pre-
ponderance over the fleets Of its
allies has made 1t the one out
standing guarantor for the Sc
curity Of the seas from enemy
assailments, and even In the
case of the submarines there
have been $50 of these sunk,
mostly in the course Of the past
year. Great Britain has given
freedom Of the seas to the allied
and neutral shipping.-Balti-

AMERICAN WOMEN CALLED
INTO COUNTRY'S SERVICE
Must Conserve Every Resource, Save
Labor and Money to Make Fourth
Liberty Loan Success.
BY MRS. ANTOlNETTE FUNK,
Vice Chairman Woman's National Lib

BY MRS. ANTOINETTE FUNK,
Vice Chairman Woman's National Lib
erty Loan Committee.
This is war that belongs to women.
1t is not being waged for conquest,
nor for glory, nor for any empty rite,
nor for material gain. 1t is a war for
humanity, and wherever men, women
and children are concerned it Is wom-
ans business.
In this great world crisis that is
now upon us the president of the
United States has called American
women into the service of the world
Our allies remain unconquered be-
cause of the devotion, heroism and
sacrifice Of their women. We, too,
shall prove invincible with the COM
plete conservation Of our womanhood.
When Secretary McAdoo called the
women Of America to do their part in
financing the world, he reminded them
that while battles were won by men,
wars were won by money, and that
money could only be raised with the
aid of the nations women.
Women do not often handle large
sums Of money, but giant army of
them hold a large per cent of the
fifties and the hundreds of the last
Liberty loan. Those with small saw
securities are purchasing the finest Sc
curities under the sun In the market
Of the world.
Money alone will not win the war.
For, If all the gold in the world were
placed in shining heap it would be
useless unless converted into terms of
labor.
Labor means everything that we
must use in the war-food, clothing,
munitions, ships, houses, railroads, all
the vital elements that make up the
everyday life of individuals and of the
nation.
Woman must conserve labor as she
conserves food. No woman has right
to anything to wear or to eat, to look
at or to listen to, that she can pos
sibly do without. All of these take
labor to produce and detract from the
necessities Of war.
When the government has reached
out its hand and laid 1t on the lives
Of its men nothing else matters. When
our men have been asked to give all
life itself IL need be-no.hing that we
can do or suffer really matters.
What do the graces Of life matter
when our plowshares are beaten into
swords? What does the quality Of
food or the kind Of clothing matter
when men and women must ask them
selves, as my boy hungry" us he
frozenT We can give nothing that
has not already been given by the
youth that has marched out of our
homes.
Liberty bonds are as good as coin of
the realm, but II they were not and
America needed the money, the women
of the nation would frame those bonds
and hand them down to their chill
dren's children as certificates of 10y
atty.
