WILL HAVE TALES TO TELL
Undoubtedly Crews Of Submarines
Have Seen Many Strange Sights In
Depths Of Ocean.

When the war is over many inter-
esting revelations will probably be
gathered from the statements Of
many Of the crews Of the submarines
that ply up and down under the sur
face and 60 down onto the bottom
Of the sea, as told in BOYS Life. the
boy scouts magazine. Many strange
sights fit past the eve Of the lookout
in the coming tower when the vessel
Is deep down. But strangest and
most melancholy are the giimpses he
gets Of sunken ships resting on tho
bed Of the ocean.
In the North sea, which is shallow
in comparison with other great ex-
panses Of salt water, they form dan
ger to the underwater craft, which
may sometimes only avert collision
by a quick turn Of the wheel.
But sunken ships IN the deep sea,
such as the Pacific and the Indian
ocean, only 90 down a certain dis
lance, no matter what their build or
how ponderous their cargo. The idea
popular among seafarers and certain
scientists Is that, hging reached a
certain stratum in those tremendous
depths, they then drift about, slow
~ d'sintegratinc. derelicts Of the
depths, swarming with strange deni-
zens.

LONG HERALDED AUSTRIA OF.
FENSIVE HAS STARTED

Rome, June 1.-THE long heralded
Austrian offensive was launched on
the Italian front Saturday and is still
under way. Fiercest fighting resulted
in the Asiago and Grappa regions. and
also along the Piave river which the
Austrians crossed at three points.
Six hundred thousands Austrians be-
gan the offensive following four days
of rain and mist which rendered OBJ
servation difficult. However, the
Italians learned that the plans for the
offensive had started and opened a
terrific barrage before the Austirans
opened, which greatly disorganized
the Austrians concentrating plans 1t

were less successful than they had
expected. The British officers under
attack described the situation as high

Austrian pressure continues strong

Asiago river and the sea, with the
greatest force exerted on both sides
of the Brenta river. The line may
flow backward or forward at any time,
but the situation seems reassuring.
