OPERATING A SUBMARINE.
The Method When the Ship Is About
to Make an Attack.

Every submarine has its commander
generally captain-who acts as the
very brains of the ship. No one else
can give orders, for SO intercOnnected
are all the machines that the conflict
ing commands from more than one Offi-
Ger would almost surely result in an
accident; hence every one reports di-
rectly to the captain through the sec
ond officer in command, who, by the
way, is also responsible for the correct
operation of everything from the bal
last tanks to the torpedoes.
In making the attack the captain
mans the periscope in the main oper-
ating room, just beneath the coming
tower. The lenses and prisms in the
periscope tube transmit the images
from the sighting piece above the wa
ter down to the periscOpe eyepiece.
When the vessel dives the decks are
first cleared. Then the matches are
sealed down and the oil engines are
stopped in quick succession. Storage
batteries are turned ON to drive the
electric propelling motors. Electric
machinery must be used under water
because the oil engines consume pre-
cious air and exhaust poisonous gases.
On the next word from the captain
water from outside is allowed to fill
the huge ballast tanks in the central
hull. Other ballast tanks at the ends
of the boat are partially filed to hold
the ship on an even keel. This trim
ming Of the submarine, of course, can
be delicately controlled by the buoyan-
cy gauges and controls in the operating
room,
The weight of all this water causes
the submarine to sink, but not COM
pletely. The horizontal rudders at the
stern of the ship are used to give the
final touches to the dive. The COM
mander directs the man at the wheel
how far down he wishes to go. By
watching the depth gauges in front OF
him the wheelman can SO tip the div
ing rudders that the proper depth can
be found Immediately and held exactly.
It takes but minute or two to dive.
In tOrpedoing q ship the vessel must
be turned to aim the torpedo tubes,
which lie parallel with the central axis
of the submarine-in the bow. The
command is given to fire. The ,gunners
in the forward compartment receive
the order through speaking tubes or
telephones. The torpedo is discharged
from it's tube by compressed air.-Pop-

The Ladysmith highschool basket
ball team went "over the top last
Friday when they defeated the sturdy
Bloomerites by 20 to 80 score.
The Bloomer players were large,
hard as nails and exceedingly fast.

ing close and rough. The locals ex-
ceeded in the scoring department.
Time after time Goocher and Ulrich

of their opponents by throwing pretty
goals from unheard of angles and dis

.PUL]...LAR
 & NIVEN
WILL REQUIRE 50,000
 NURSES WITHIN YEAR
Secretary Baker Taking Every Pos
 sibIe Step Not to Affect Civil Hospitals.

Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 25.--Acting Secretary of War Crowell, in a letter read today before the convention of the American Hospital Association, said the army probably would need at least 50,000 nurses by next July. In order to obtain them without seri- ously crippling the civil hospitals, he said, Secretary Baker has approved a plan to supplement the supply of graduate nurses with pupils of the army school of nursing, which plan is now being put into effect by the surgeon general. Up to the present, MT. Crowell added, the government has withdrawn from civil hospitals tonly about 900 nurses, while 25,- 900 have been graduated from train ing schools.
 Mir Crowell said that Secretary Baker realizes the demands of the war department have seriously affect ed the administration of civil hospi- tals by the withdrawal of staff physi- clans, internes, nurses and employees.
 An effort has been made" he z added, "to leave a sufficient mum Der of physicians for the hospitals, but this has been rendered difficult be- cause of the patriotic spirit which has prompted many to go in spite of the representations made to them that their duty was to remain at home. He told the delegates the govern ment's program of five million men under arms by next fall would neces- aitate approximately 500,00 hospital beds abroad and 100000 in the United States for army purposes and urged the support and cooperation of all interests concerned.
