GAYETY Diving STAR
HOLDS WORLD RECORD
Claire FAIRY Proves "Hands-and-
Feet-Tied" Champion.

Claire Fairy. who Is the star
among the stars of the Gayety The
ater's diving girls here this week,
holds several records and has
enough medals for high diving to
make it difficult to keep herself
afioat in the water.
Miss FAIRY holds the world rec
ord for swimming three and one
half miles among women with her
hands and feet tied. This little
feat she accomplished in one hour
and forty-five minutes.
Before entering burlesque this
young daughter of Neptune caper-
ed in the keystone comedies in
California. which is much nearer
her hOme-POrtland, Ore.,-than is
Washington.
She attempted to add TO her high
diving laurels by heading off Eads
Bridge in st. Louis. but the St
Louis authorities could not be con-
yinced that it would be anything
less than plain suicide and pre-
vented Miss Fairy from carrying
out her plan.
A mile and a half with hands and
feet tied is another achievement OF
Miss FAIRY. In the diving act in
the show running at the Gayety
this week Miss Fairy plunges down
into a small tank from a height OF
fifty feet. which is some little dis.
tance when you are up looking

any other vegetable, at that time.
The first radish sowing may be
made even before frosts are past.
Sow in rows about q foot apart Cor
in rows with other seed. Cover
half an inch. Thin TO 2 inches
apart when the seedlings come up.
First two sowings should be in sun

SHIPS BUILT,
SAYS OFFICER
Shipping Board Issues An
swer to Attack Made by
Senator Lodge.

The United States Shipping Board
last night, through high ofhcial. an
swered Senator Lodges attack on the
boards progress.
Instead Of only two ships built by
the board, as charged by Senator
Lodge In the Republican attack on the
administration Tuesday. twenty-three
ships have been put in the water
since June Is. when Congress made
available the shipbuilding appropria-
ton.
Including the reQuisitioned ships,
and these requistioned ships filled the
ways when the board began the ship
building program. there have been
built under the direction Of the Ship
ping Board 1Ss vessels.
One hundred and three steel ships
have been delivered and now are in
service for the allies and the United
hulls requisitioned by the board on
ways have been completed and
launched, and eleven wooden vessels
have been put in the water under
board contract.
All Of these twenty-three new con-
tract ships, with the exception Of four
built by Skinner & Eddy. at Seattle.
whose yard was established in 1915,
were constructed in new shipyards
that had themselves to be built, after
June Is. last year. before the keels
could be laid.
The shipbuilding program. 1t was
emphasized, had been primarily a
shipyard program before ships could
be begun, as the allies and private
owners had crowded all existing
American yards with contracts before
the board was created.

, One of the first crops you will
take from your garden VIII be rad
ishes.
They are easy to grow and re-
Quire little care.
, There are three kinds, spring,
summer and fall radishes. In most
gardens only the first 10 raised.
This IL the little round, red or white
radish, and grows only in cool
weather. 1t is ready for the ia
BILE in from twenty to forty days,
depending upon the weather-and
condition OF the soil.
Summer radishes, grown extern
siVely in Europe. resemble the tur-
nip and are gray, white or almost
black. Winter radishes are longer
in shape and are red, white or
black. The winter radish may be
stored just like turnips. 1t has a
rather woody taste.
Radishes may be grown as COM
panion crops with any other vege-
table, as they mature and are out
of the way before the other crop
needs the space. Successive SOW
ings of radish seed shoufd be made
every week or ten days during the
early spring. TO insure a constant
supply Of fresh radishes.

VILLAGES CAPTURED BY HUNS ARE
NOTHING BUT PILES OF BRICK DUST

tered stones, practically useless even
for machine gun posts.
The German plan seems to have
been to catch the British armies In
this devastated axea and engage them
in a war of movement In the open
where there was no cover Of any
kind by using which the retreating
Tommies could hold up the Hun ad-
vance.
Dispatches indicate that the British
have forestalled this trick by extri-
eating themselves without more than
normal losses and taking up prepared
positions still further back.
The strategic advantage which the
Germans have gained will not be
fully evident for several days. But
the territorial advantage Of this
drive in the region east of the
Bapaume-Peronne line Is nil. They
have simply occupied a vast Sahara
of their own making. containing not
even a solitary civilian inhabitant to
be added to their slave gangs.

Herbert J. Browne, who was at

the government TO commander prop

said that he believed this would stop

Stamp Out The Influenza.

1t has been a long time since such
a scourge as the Spanish influenza
visited this country, and while the
crisis has been reached in some sec
tons let US not relax in our efforts
to check the spread of the disease.
Fresh air is said to be n OF the
best means Of fighting the disease.
Keep yourself as strong as possible
with nourishing food and then stay
from other people, crowds, as
much as possible. See that every part
of the home has all of the fresh air
possible. BY a strong, concerted Ell
ort the laity can assist the physicians
in stamping out the disease which IS
now dreaded by everybody, as COM
plications seem to be not easily
avoided after the disease is contract
ed. Use every pound-not ounce
of prevention possible.
