BIG ship CARRIED
MANYU.S. TROOPS.

With the arrival at New York a few
days ago of the transport Leviathan

troops of the LIST division, the giant
transport brough to close her i'm
portant service in helping win the
war. According to information at the
headquarters of the troop and trans
port force at Hoboken, the big ship is
now to be retired as transport and
after being refitted for passenger SER
vice is to be turned back TO the I'm
tied States shipping board, the agency
which seized her when the United
States enterted the war.
The Leviathan formerly the Water
land, the second largest ship in the
world was interned in New York by
the Germans in 1914, and "wilfully
damaged to the extent OF more than
81 100000. She proved after she was
re- conditioned by American engineers,
to be the greatest single unit in TAX
ing Amerisan fighting men to France
and bringing them home. Including
the voyage ended to-day, which was
her 10Th round trip under the Ameri-
can flag, she carried 1S5,50O soldiers,
of whom 98,321 were carried overseas

The Leviathan was made a special
mark for the U-bOat commanders and
had several narrow escapes, but her
speed and armament saved her each
speed and armament saved her cash
time. Her engines, despite the dam
age done to them, developed under
American engineers a speed much
greater than her German builders ever
believed possible.

ABOUT THE USE OF WORDS

So great has been the effect of
Dana's list in fact that most Of the
things he thus condemned have now
passed out of accepted use. This list
of terms to be avoided was mainly as
follows:
"Above"or 'over' for ''more than
Aggregate" for total
Balance" for remainder"
Call attention" for direct atten~
tion."
"Claim" for assert"
Commence for "begin."
"Conscious" for aware"
Couple" for two"
Cultured for cultivated"
Date back to- for date from"
Donate" for give"
Endorse" for approve"
'sF'all' for autumn
"From whence for whence"
"Inaugurate" for establish" "instf-
tute."
"Individual" for person"
Infinite for great" vast"
I'm our midst" for among us"
..In spite Of for among U.S."
Last for --latest"
LESS for fewer"
Materially for largely"
Notice" for "observe."
"Onto" for "on' or upon
Z Partially for partly"
party for person
'Past two years. for last two
years"
posted" for Uniformed.
Practically for virtually
prior to" for before"
Propose" for purpose"
Proven for proved"
Quite for Something Of.
Spend" for pass"
Standpoint" for "pointrof view.
Subsequently" for "afterward."
''Transpire" for happen.
Universal for general"
Vest for "waistcoat."
"svicinity" for 'sneighboThood"
Not everybody would agree that the
expressions thus tabOoed by Dana are
improper. In some cases it was purely
a matter of choice or personal taste.
In some other cases the world has re-
fused to follow Dana's lead and have
adopted the terms which he de-
nounced. For example we all say
lover" for more than" and 1t
shorter and better expression
"over 10000 people"
