LONDON, Oct. "a contingent
of l. American submarine chasers

chaser squadron effectively acted as
a screen around the big ships en-
gagged in the bombardment, TO pro-

Americans were under a heavy fire,
but had no casualties. Capt. c. p.

and reports of the operation praise
their work highly.
The Americans definitely sank one
submarine and damaged and prob
ably destroyed another After the
engagement they escorted a British
cruiser. which had been hit by a
torpedo, safely to the base from
which the expedition started. An
enemy hospital ship was also taken
in charge for examination.
Throughout the bOmbardment and
when the forces were approaching
the harbor, go chasers circled
swiftly around Lac big ships. A re-
port received here says that the men
had a good time and evidently were
pleased with the success Of the first
achievement of this character the
chasers had attempted to work.

Dog Plays Tag With
Policemen of Twin
Townships and Gets Awa,

/ LOS ANGELES, Feb. 25.-This is
the tale of dog.
He is a very bright dog-he outwit-
ted the police forces of Santa Monica
and Venice. His name is Major and
he belongs to George Holland. Mr..
Hollands house is on the boundary
line between Venice and Santa Mon
lea.
When Major trots out on the front
lawn he is in Venice. When he buries
bones in the back yard he is IN Santa
Monica.
Near the Marine avenue home of
the Hollands is the Merritt Jones no.
tel. Certain Of the guests of the Mer-
rift Jones say that Major is a good
dog in his way, but that he bowls too
much Also he bowls too late.
So they complained to the Venice
police. Two officers strolled up to
the front door of the Holland resi-
dence. Major was playing about on
the lawn when they approached. 1t
may have been purely accidental, but
there was a mischievous CLEAN in his
eye as he trotted around into the
backyard-and Santa Monica. The
Venice force whistled and coaxed, but
Major remained without their juris-
diction. They withdrew, passing the
well known buck by telephone to San
ia Monica officers.
Twas but few minutes till two OF
Santa Monica's finest approached
stealthily and climbed over a fence
into the Holland back yard. Major
wagged his tail in a friendly and yet
knowing fashion and trotted around
on the front lawn-in Venic. Santa
Monica officers can whistle also, and
they did. But Major rolled over and
! over on the green grass in the great

BETTER eREEDERS-BETER
RESULTS
(By II. N. Lackie, Iowa State Agrieul-
turai ColIege.)

Whether or not better poultry is
raised next season will depend pri-
marily upon the kind of stock that Is
used for breeding. Every baby chick
is entitled to be well born and I'M
less its parents are strong. vigorous,
hard and highly resistant to disease,
a relatively poor hatch" Of weak and
puny chicks is sure to result. One OF
the most frequent causes OF poor
breeders. Chicks Matched from poor
breeding stock grow slowly, lack en-
ergy to range widely, mature late, and
do not reach the size of good strong
birds. The pullets fail to lay during
the winter and generally do not pro-
duce enough to pay for their feed. II

Let Il Be Yanks.

Gen. Peyton March, Chief of Staff yesterday
appealed for the elimination of the word Sammy"
with respect to American troops, saying that if
there is thing the United States soldier doesn't
like it's being called Sammy"
He said the British and French can't understand
why such vigorous men should be given such an
appendage. The British have discarded it in favor
of "Yanks," Gen. March said.
The Washington Herald placed the taboo on
the word Sammy" more than two months ago,
because to US it smacked with something of the
burlesque, the crude, the cheap, the rustic and was

men.
