thoroughly ,:ryr.opcI. that the Eng
lish anu american navics have aban-
dcned all means of marine camouflage
excepting the paint box, and the paint
crS brush. The lines Of each ship
are carefully studied. and 4 cannon
flage design in pattern is laid out.
Sharp contrasting cotors are arranged
to create. a comparison OF detail. so
that a, considerable distance, not
ONLY the form and size but even the
direction OF travel Of Z ship are un-
certain. The submarine in these days
of defensive warfare does not have
unlimited time to rise To the surface
and torpedo it's victim at short range.
It has only few seconds in which to
locate its victim and do its work. and
those. seconds must be used 10 advan-
tase. The camourflAge has operated
to make the work more difficult and
naturally less efficient.
Probably Germany will soon b. pro-
testing against the camouflage. as a
cruel and barharous method Of fight
ing the submarine.

THE PROBLEM OF RUSSIA

The problem Of Russia may become
one OF the most embarrassing that
the victorious allies will have on their
hands.
Whatever permanent government IS
established in Russia, it is reasonably
certain that it will be established and
maintained for some time at least by
he force OF allied armies. The coun-
try can hardly be {; party 10 the set

other than a Republic. Yet it is very
questionble whether a Russian Re
public can maintain itself, or whether
the people are fit for l Republican

So its up to you, my brother,
And me-to buy the bonds.

He has sheltered and protected him
Beneath our starry crest.
We have no place for the neutral
You're 4 patriot or you arc. not
We've only jeers for the Stacker:
Oh. shaThe! that we have them here.
Then buy q bond for Uncle Sam.
It's little enough TO do: :,
He has barred his strong HSht aim OF

That no harm shall come to you.
Our boys are Givlng their lives for us.
They arc sending this message home:

Oh, shame! if we stand aside!
Our mountain state will do her best.
For Liberty Is sweet.
With flag and banners floating high.
We have never known defeat.
So while the Eagle scars the sky,
Well forge ahead with cheer.

So Uncle Sam don't fear.
Oh. buy hond-buy hne 10 ten; -
