a Heartfelt Drama of
Ocean Perils
(Associated PreSs)

Miami, Fla, Dec. 14.-Submarine
chasers and airplanes are searching
for the yacht Grey Duck which left
here Wednesday for Nassau with Da-
ivid w. Griffith. motion picture pro-
dUcer, and a party of thirty-six mo-
ticn picture actors, cameramen and
others. Advices received here say
the party had not reached the Ba-
haman island capital. The yacht
motors were known to be giving trou-
bic when the Grey Duck left this port.
The Grey Duck left here Wednesday,
ard unless she stopped or changed her
course, should have reached the 'Ba-
hamaS the same day.
A seaplane which left here at ten
a. m. yesterday wirelessed back from
Nassau after five hours scouting over
adjacent islands that no trace of the
Grey Duck had been seen. A stiff
gale has been blowing off the coast
for the past week.
The appeal to the navy department
fer aid was followed by dispatch for
the revenue cutter to scout between
Miami and Nassau. 1t was stated on
what was believed to be reliable au-
thority that three engineers recently
declined to accept the position as en-
gineer of the missing launch. The
Grey Duck is so feet over all and is
powered with a 200-horsepower gas
cline motor. Will J. Read, mayor of
Fort Lauderdale, and a wealthy real
estate operator, and his 18-year-old
daughter, Marian, We're on board the
Grey Duck.

were swept from the deck but were
rescued. The boat nearly capsized in
the northwest channel. The pilot was
injured and Others on board were
IolCed to take their turn at the wheel
while the helpless craft wallowed in
the seas.
The wireless message follows:
"Grey Duck arrived late today driv-
EN- by heavy gale. d. w. Griffith and
party safe but had three days without
food and little water. The boat near
ly capsized twice in the northwest
channel. The pilot was injured and
Griffith was forced to take his turn at
the wheel, while the helpless boat
w&liowed far from her course. The
yacht arrived after union church SER
vices where prayers were spoken for
the missing boat and passengers. The
wa es were only thirty feet high but

RAIL EMPLOYEES IN FINISH
FIGHT TO WIN REFORMS.

Washington, D. c., Oct, 22.-Rail-
road employees are prepared for
finish fight with the railroad admin
istration for increased wages, time
and a half for overtime, and improv-
ed working conditions before the gov
ernment surrenders the roads to pri-
vate control.
Unmistakable notice to this effect
has been served by Timothy Shea Of
the Firemen, appearing before the
board of railway wages and working
conditions.
" If our demands for living wage
should rot be met when the time ap-
proaches for turning back the rail
roads to their private owners" Mr..
Shea said, in testimony which became
public tonight, 1--WE shall demand as
a condition recedent to the change
the realization of the. fundamental
rights of labor, the living wage, the
eight hour day on all federal con-
trolled roads, time and one-half for
overtime, and other principles to
which the government pledged itself
during the war, which have now been
made g part Of the treaty Of peace
and which SO far the railroad admin
istration has never fulfilled"
While Mr.. Shea was appearing on
behalf Of the firemen only. it has
been recognized generally that wage
increases for any one class of railroad
employees meant an advance for all

MOST MEN GREAT LIARS.

A New York paper recently re-
ccived 10000 replies to its question
as TO the essentials in women which
man most desires in his life mate.
The renlies were alike as two peas in
q pod, and all of the twenty thousand
Lords of creation" who wrote ths
letters, belonged to an Ananias Club.
Who was it said that all men ars
liars? David, we believe, but who
ever it was, he said some hing that
time All men are liars, when It
comes to women.
The chaps all placed vi,tue ahead
of everything else-she just had to
be virtGous, but they did not send in
any of their own PAST records in that
respect Then came domess sicity, sin
certify, fidelity, health, neatness, good
nature, cleverness. and, last Of all,
beauty. Ha! Beauty was last on the
list! David was good guesser.
Reasons why some women appeal
to certain men are vague and indefi-
n;te. Grouped and scrutinized the
fact develops that all men. educated
or pretending to average refinement,
define an attractive woman in very
much the same way. All are agreed
on their composite ideals; and vet
these of rs who have lived long
enough to officiate as best man at the
finish know that more than often his
selection has few if any of these pro-
found essentials of feminine beauty
and masculine bliss. This may be bs-
cause no man has his own way in
the choosing of wife. Most Of US
are run down and captured-{busi-'
ness here of loud snorts from the
female Of the species.)
| The quiet, demure little home body
who sings in the choir, runs her legs
off rustling bankable religion, and is
wrapped up in books, music, children
and other accredited frills of re pose
full domesticity-she by whom all, Of
these twenty thousand men swors
was the woman they wanted-sits
alone and unsought like Cinderella
among her ashes, while the slit skirt
! and mustard-colored hat draped jount-
lily on fluffy-ruffled peachorina
gets away with the masculine goat.
Oh, thoughtless, inconsistent male
person selfish, egotistical and swag-
4 geling wretch that you are! Your
4swiss,,wag ;tnd wireless signals and ~
cry move upon the social gridiron
4 proclaim that old David was wise
guy when he said that all men were
liars. The woman you most admire
is the woman that has charm, and you
ought to be truthful enough to admit
it. The woman Of charm does not
care a rap about masculine ideals, As
q general rule She has talents Of
various kinds, expensive toggery,
studied airs of grace, is clever and
carries her clothes eff with frou-
| f1ou that is enhancing to her special
pleading and enchanting to we great

trail Division headquarters in Chicago
calling upon the men and women of ev-
cry community to enlist for the ten-day
campaign to secure dollar annual
memberships. With approximately
600 chapters in the division, this num-
Der will allow for about 400 workers to
chapter. Every chapter will be a
recruiting Office for these workers.
Workers viii Wear Badges.
Each worker will be supplied with a
badge proclaiming that the wearer is a
volunteer worker for the Red Cross
The success of the campaign will, in
reality rest upon the shoulders of
these volunteer workers, as the third

a complete organization.
The purpose of the campaign is to
obtain, as nearly as possible, q univer-
sal enrolment in the Red Cross as al
expression of confidence in the past
performances of the Red Cross and q
reaffirmation of allegiance to the prin-
ciples which will guide its work IL the
future. In order to do this every man
and woman in the territory of each
chapter must be asked to join the Red
Cross, and this will require the serv-
ices of hundreds of workers. The
Central Division wants at least 4,000,-
COO enrollments for 1920. Special
stress during the campaign will be
placed upon the annual cne-dollar
memberships in order to make the roll
call an appeal to all the people.
