ANOTHER TRICK BY THE, BRITISH FOR
 GETTING HUN DIVERS

LONDON, Jan. 27. - The depth charges, in the opinion of many of ticers engaged in submarine chasing, were the chief factor in checking the German submarine campaigns. The war had gone for nearly two and half years before the depth charges were perfected. Previous to that time trawlers dragged nets about on cables in an effort to strike submarines and used other equally dangerous and futile de- vices.
 But the perfected depth charges. so arranged that they could be timed for explosion at any desired depth, solved the problem of the small chasers which were fghting the submarines. TraIleIs with s1f- icient speed conid drop these charges and get out of the danger zone. The mortality among sub marine chasers immediately dropped and the seas became very unsaS e for the sensitive rnderseas craft. | One of the novel devices adopted by the British for the co-ordination of the efforts of trawlers and sub< marines has just been divulged.

In this photoplay MiEs Ferguson appears las a beautiful don wife, absolutely without initiative and whose charac- ter has been formed in the environ ment of a home where she has been

 The Elks were using "soft-nosed" bullets last night with the result that eighteen splits were chalked up in the three games p.ayed. Nearly all the players were hitting the pins right on the nose" in addition to which a number of bad breaks were also recorded, and with the result ant "blows," the total score was more than 100 pins short of what it should have been.
 Treadwell reported hard luck, also and attributed their failure in find ing the groove" to the high wind which prevailed last night McCor- mick for Treadwel, secured high score of POP, and Gaveril rolled the high average for the Island five
