important points brought out at the
first meeting OF the captains held in
the directors room Of the Equitable
Trust Company this morning. It was
called by the chairman for Whining
ton, Mrs. Otho Nowland, who announced
the 10 per cent subscription goal, which
had come from Mrs. Henry Ridgely,

HELP WIN WAR

Women OF America, fighting behind

other essential war work, taking up
the burdens formerly carried by the
men who go to battle, are the ones on
whom the country will rely in great
measure for winning this war. Women
in England and France have made 10
possible for their men 20 fight tue foe
and hold him successfully Women OF
America, those who have never vet
worked, must face the problems OF to-
day, must contribute their share in act

tory.
This was the message delivered last
night 10 the women powder workers
OF Carney's Point by Captain Frank
Schwab, OF the British Field Artillery,
who was the principal speaker at a
Sunday evening patriotic rally.
The armies Of France and England
have checked the enemy. We will beat

But 1 say TO you that this has been

Captain Schwab called attention 10
the fact that millions OF women IN Eng

before were now buslly engaged in

the wOmen's work behind the lines

CITY LIVES THROUGH
HEATLESS SUNDAY

Wilmington lived through a gasless,
sunless. heatless, lightless, baseballless
Sunday yesterday. The temptation TO
break the ban on automobile riding was
small, as rain, drizzle and a penetrating
chill were the order Of the day. The
temperature climbed no higher than
67 degrees the entire day and went down
in the flfties during the night.
The Wilson Line officials were agree
ably surprised by the large number OF
persons who braved the chilliness to
take the Philadelphia boat ride. When
the rain cleared off at night, Market
street crowds soon reached their usual
numbers. The downtown restaurants
were well filed until a late hour with
persons whom the brisk weather had
given an appetite FOR an extra meal.

NAVY ON ALERT
TO PREVENT HUN
U-BOAT DRIVE
Extra Precautions Being
Taken to Protect Amer
lean Transport Fleet
ATTACK ON MT. VERNON
MAY Be FORERUNNER
BY the United Press.

bs Alt 0ulttu fLtsts
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-The navy for
some weeks past has been acting on the
presumption that Germany would make
big U-bOat drive against American
transports, Secretary Daniels admitted
today. This course, while not based on
official information, resulted from the
logical conclusion that Germany would
do her utmost TO attack transports when
she saw Americas army growing enor-
mously.
Conveys have been strengthened and
other anti-submarine measures fncreas-
ed. Daniels declared.
Daniels said It had been fully recog-
nized by himself and other navy men
that Germany would undoubtedly make
a big offensive at the transports, par
ticularly when she saw how formidable
the American army was becoming He
pointed out that the attempt against
the Mt. Vernon showed conclusively
that the Gerrmns does not intend TO let
transports through II they can prevent.
Every transport going or coming Is
in more OF less danger, Daniels said. but
he pointed out that the navy is increas-
ing its anti-submarine measure in COM
parison with the expected new ener-
getic drive OF the U-bOsts.
Germany is known 10 have a very
extensive supply OF submarines. They
are not sufficient, however, TO cause the
navy TO be especially alert al the time.
Daniels pointed out that
the record Of transporting troops with
no losses have proven amaz-
ing. A year ago. he admitted. such a
record would have seemed almost i'm
possible in view Of the former inroads
Of the U-boat.
II was said that the department has
no information OF any transport attack
at present other than against the Mt.
Vernon which proved unsuccessful.

NEW WAR ENGINE
PASSES THROUGH CITY

The realities Of war were impressed
on Wilmingtonians today when an auto
mobile tank car arrived here enroute
for the South in charge OF Captain Sc
combe and seven soldiers. The machine
which had ten wheels on the ground
and two in the air attracted consider
able attention. II was said the ma
chine is used as a carriage for anti air
craft guns. The gun was not mounted
on the machine, however.
Little information could be learned
about the apparatus, the army officers
refusing TO discuss ii with anyone.
While the machine was here IL was
learned that il was invented by Christy,
the inventor OF the Christy front drive
automobile. The inventor was with
the soldiers enroute TO the proving
grounds.

WHY SOCIETY WOMEN
WASH THEIR OWN HAIR

They do, not because It is a fad.
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful They have found that In
washing the hair 1t Is never wise to
use a makeshift. but Is always ad-
yisable to use a preparation made for
shampooing only. Many Of our friends
say they get the best results from
a simple homemade Canthrox mix
ture. You can use this at q cost of
about cents shampoo by getting
some Canthrox from your druggist
and dissolving teaspoonful in a cup
OF hot water. This makes enough
shampoo liquid to apply to all the
hair instead of Just the top Of the
head. as with most preparations.
Dandruff. excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear in the
rinsing water. Your hair win be 80
nuny that 1t viii look much heavier
than n is Its luster and softness
win also delight you.--Advs

Society has started its summer COM
muting- The routine of summer life
has been taken up by quite a few
people, with business men going daily
70 their offices in the city and return
ing at night to their suburban tenn
porary residences for the relief OF
bucolic change. With the men of
! families who have selected more dis
tant colonies like those of Newport.
Southampton, the hills of New York
and Pennsylvania, the North Shore.
or even the nearer and more popular
White Sulphur and Blue Ridge sum-
init, summer committing becomes a
weekly pleasure. with Saturday to
Monday rests.
With such men their clubs become
midsummer cases in a midweek
desert Of business obligation and they
keep their timepieces in perfect ac-
cord with the "one o'clock Saturday
specials from the Union Station.
Z With the women of society the coun-
try home is to be merely a summer
relief Their activities will have a
common basis in war relief which is
centered in the city. The Red Cross
banner of the great home army of
Washington women will not be
lowered.
Like the first of the month, the
middle is being marked by an exodus
of folks to their summer destinations.

she Is accustomed to entertaining in
warm weather, as summer Is THE
season IN London, where she lived
for fourteen years. Mrs. Mcdonald
hasrs very handsome home in Lon
don and will probably return there
after the war. She came over the
winter after the war started She,
with Mr.. Mcdonald, had planned to
come to this country that winter,
some time before the war started.
as Mr.. Mcdonald was then in poor
health and wanted to spend a while
in California. They did not intend
to remain here. but Mr.. Mcdonald
was very Ill for long time after
they reached this country, and then
passed away, SO she and her son,
Arthur Bradley Campbell. have just
stayed on, settling down in Wash
ington.
Mrs. Mcdonald plans to keep her
house here open all season though
she will be away the greater part Of
the time. She will leave next Sat-
urday to visit her son who is in
Florida taking an examination for
commission IN the army, having
enlisted some time ago. Her move

CBv Associated Press


Washington, May 16.-An amend
ment to the postoff1ce appropriation
bill providing for an increase Of
$500 a year in the salaries of clerks,
letter carriers and certain other pos
tai employees, and increases Of 90
per cent for rural mail carriers and
for employees receiving less than

by the senate.
Employees receiving between $500
and $500 annually would be given
increases Of IS per cent and the pay
of substitute clerks and carriers
would be fixed at 40 cents an hour
For fourth class postmasters, the
amendment provides that they shall

coed $50. a 20 per cent salary in
