EPWORTH LEAGUE
RALLY TONIGHT

The third quarterly group rally of
the Epworth Leagues of Bridgeport
and vicinity, will be held today, at
Trinity NJ. E. church, corner North
avenue and Remer street. The
Group Cabinet members decided at
their last meeting to hold a social
rally at this time. The meeting will
be opened at 7:45 p. m. with a 20
minute song service. The Rev.
Cummins, pastor of Trinity church,
will have charge of the devotional ex-
ercises after which the Trinity Ep-
worth League chapter will offer a
program consisting of selections by
the orchestra, chorus singing, male
quartet, readings, vocal and instru-
mental solos.
This is somewhat of diversion
from our usual Group meetings
therefore a large assembly of mem
bers Is looked for. The honor roll of
the group, of the boys, who are in the
service will be read and Leaguers of
the various chapters, will find it of
interest to hear of the members who
have gone. After the business ses-
sion a light lunch will be served in
the parlors of the church, and a
pleasant, social time is looked for
ward to for all who attend.

OF FIGHT
With SUBMARINE
RELATED TO KING

I,onon, March 21-(Correspond-
ence of the Associated Press) How
Leith ship master successfully fought
a German submarine was related to
King George when the mariner was
decorated at Buckingham Palace.
The British vessel exchanged shots
at two miles with the submarine,
which withdrew out Of range after
firing a torpedo. The smoke boxes
on the steamer then caught fire and the
submarine commander resumed the
chase. He overhauled the steamer
and a fierce fight followed.
The submarine after gun was put
out of action by enemy shells rafned
over and around the steamer and one
of her passengers and a steward were
wounded. After two hours fighting
the submarine ceased firing without
submerglng, presumably having been
damaged severely by the British guns.
Putting on full steam, the British
ca plain soon left the German, who
did not take up the chase, far astarn.
The captain then went below and
gave medical attention to the Dassel-
ger and steward, amputating one of
the stewards legs.

ANCIENT BATTLE
GROUND is NOW
ARTILLERY RANCE

Charlotte, N. c. April AFTER
1913 years of pesca and quit the his
Ior1c Kings Mountain battle-ground,
where the heroes fought and died
that America might be freed Of Bri-
fish rule is again awakened by the
roar of artillery and rifle firing.
1t has been brought about by the
officials representing the United
States government selecting this site
as an artillery and rifle range and
soldiers in training at Camp Greene
will be trained there in the use of
heavy field artillery using the face of
the mountain as a background. A
plot of 400 acres has been leased
for this purpose and a camp to &C
commodate $500 men and 1900
horses has been erected near the site.
An odd feature is the fact that
American soldiers are being partly
tutored by British army officers sent
to this country for instructing the
descendants of sons of those men
who fought against their forefathers
1873 years ago.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please you most will be after
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bies the beauty. of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy. Just moisten a cloth with
Danderlne and carefully draw It
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ing-yoCr hair will be light, fluffy
and wavy, and have an appearance
of abundance; an Incompatible lustre,
softness and luxuriGnce.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store OF
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and
lots of It if you will just try a little
eDanderine.-Adv.

KANSAS LABOR
CONDITIONS ARE
AGAIN NORMAL

Kansas City, April 3-Labor con-
ditions in Kansas City today slowly
were returning to normal following
the ending last night of the general
strike of all union workmef, called
one week ago, in sympathy with the
striking laundry employees.
No point was carried by the unions
in signing the agreement ending the
strike, according to the document. A
proposal by the Kansas City Employ
ers' association that all workers who
walked out in sympathy with the laun-
dry employees return to work in order
that confidence in labor contracts
may be re-esta blished," and under
conditions that existed before the
walkCut, was accepted by the strikers
on promise of Mayor Edwards that
the employers would ratify it if the
strikers accepted it.

''CHAIN Rocket"
BARRAGE AGAINST
ENTENTE AIRMEN

Behind the British Lines in France,
April 4,-(Correspondence of the AS
ISOLATED Press)-One of the Germans
faVorlte devices for opposing British
airmen on night raids or reconnais-
ances, is a ibarrage of the so-ca1led
chain rockets These consist of
long chains of brilliantly luminous
balls, bright green in color, which are
sent upwards like skyrockets in strings
of thirty or forty, and which hang
suspended in the sky for a considerable
time, apparently for the purpose of
catching the airplane and setting fire
to it.
The rockets must be driven up with
tremendous force, probably from gun,
for they rise to a height of 10000 feet,
and can he placed with great accu-
racy. The fireballs appear 10 be about
a foot in diameter. AS they rise they
are often caught by the wind, and
assume beautiful curves Sometimes
the whole line topples and turns be-
fore it vanishes, floating for a few
moments like a row of strange green
Japanese lanterns. 1t is supposed
that the balls are supported in the air
by small parachutes.
Thousands of these chain-rockets
are fired by the Germans on every
occasion when the Entente airmen
attack a town or camp. They are
part Of the regular shrapnel barrage
which is used to hamper the attack
ers, but they give a much more spec
tacular effect than the bursting shrap-
mol which n1oI1r criuoe q MT o1-xy
flash in the sky and then is gone.
If a machine is caught by a search
light, hundreds of the chain-rockets
are straightway sent up towards it.
They make a remarkable spectacle as
they are seen climbing up the sky
and passing one by one across the
beams of light, and finally appearing
in their appointed station in the up
per darkness.
British airmen declare that the
sensation of having these chain-rock-
cts fired at them is rather pleasant
than otherwise. 1t is difficult to be-
lieve that anything SO fantastic, beau
tifuI and fairy-Hke, can be really dan
gerous On a cloudy night, it is said,
nothing is pleasanter than to float
over the rolling clouds and to watch
the green chain-rockets pierce the
mist here and there, eating a weird
radiance over the mountains and val
leys of c1oudland.
In the midst of a really vigorous
barrage. the chain-rockets thread the
skies in scores of fiery chains, float
ing past the invading machine on
every side, leaving behind them thin
trains of scented smoke.

French Resolve To
80 Fight to a Finish

Washington, April 3-Germany'
bombardment of Paris by long range
guns will only serve to strengthen the
resolve of the French to resist to the
last man if necessary the Teutonic in
vasion, according to report received
at the State department today from
Ambassador Sharpe in Paris.
The ambassador had just completed
a visit to the church in which a shell
from the big gun killed nearly 100
worshippers Good Friday. The trag-
edy, Ambassador Sharpe said, has
aroused the indignation of Paris to-
ward IAN enemy who seeks to destroy
human life without regard to the i'm
munities prescribed by the laws Of
