HAD MIGHTY WEAPON
Big Ship Is Sunk by "Phantom
Torpedo"
British War Secret of Discharging Mis-.
siles From Airplanes Is
Disclosed.

London.-"Phantom t%orpedoes" from
the clouds sank a Turkish ship carry
ing 5000 troops, just before the end
of hostilities. Only the armistice pre-
vented other aerial "phantoms" from
operating effectively against the Ger
man w%arships in the Kiel Canal and
other German navy shelters.
These hydroplanes discharging tor
pedoes above the water have been
the great secret of the British navy
during the closing month Of the war.
Scientific officers of this branch Of
the navy agree that these mysterious
planes are designed to accomplish
from the air more effectively and
more swiftly what the torpedoes from
submarines can achieve.
An armored ship carrying twenty of
these machines met the German sur
rendered fleet at sea ready for action
in case the Germans should attempt
some eleventh-hour trickery.
These amazing planes ascend from
land or deck, climb thousands of feet
for a sudden dive from the clouds at
a speed of $50 miles an hour, straight
en- out fifty feet above the sea and
discharge a torpedo direct at the enc
my ship. Then they disappear into
the clouds as suddenly as they ap.
peared, and so swiftly that the enemy
craft has no chance of training it's
guns or machine guns on it.
How the difficulty of d%ischarging q
torpedo in the air is overcome is a
naval secret. 1t is known that Sc
rious accidents marked the expert
mental tests with these wonderful ma
chimes.

HELP H BLIND.

Soldiers themselves are almost unan-
imous In voting the blinded men the
greatest tragedy Of war.
Poor France has 5000 men whose
eyes were blasted out Of their heads
while meeting mankind's enemy in the
Great War.
The United States has NOT compiled
figures OF the number of her blinded
sons. While the number is far lower
than in France. this country is doing
everything that money and kindness
can do to make the blind happy.
They are being taught trades that
will be self-supporting and they will
not be turned loose until they can stand
on their feet. Educating the blind
is a tedious and a costly process. An.
other reason for the Victory Liberty
Loan. Think Of the blind boys when
asked to subscribe your allotment on
April 21st.

IF HE WERE YOURS.

The great heart of Uncle Sam is
softened when dealing with the rela-
tives of his soldiers who have made
the great sacrifice.
It Is often said that a big govern.
ment has no time for sentiment, but
Uncle Sam has spent millions for sen.
timent alone.
He has established an Effects Blu.
reau that does nothing but see that
the property of the dead boys gets to
their people. He will spend 4 thou.
sand dollars to get to a bereaved moth.
er a watch or a knife or q trinket that
belonged to that dead boy.
In one week in February, twenty
tons Of effects arrived in New York.
1t is the little details nike this in "an.
fishing the job" that cost money. Think
Of getting the dead boys effects back
to the bereaved mother when o ara
asked to subscribe to the Victory Lib.

$1S,4S1,0 00,0 for the United States.
Criticism has been heard that this
country loaned Great Britain, France
and others of the allies all the money
they spent. The Treasury figures also
disprove this statement. Our total

And fussin' n rantin' is treason now
When our boys out there with their eyes

1t is just as seditious to SWIVEL and snarl
In a country's crisis as tits to spy:
And we've got to be big and we've got

SHE WAS GRATEFUL, ANYWAY
And the Young Lady's Error Was
Quite Natural, Under the
Circumstances.

Edward Barrett, state g%eologist, who
lives at Thirty-sixth and Meridian
streets, vas on a Meridian Heights
car on his way home recently. At
Massachusetts avenue q young couple
got on the car. They appeared to be
very attentive and devoted to each
other. There were only two vacant
seats on the car. one ut the side Of Mr..
Barrett, and the other on the opposite
side of the car. The young woman sat
down in one Of the vacant seats and
the young man in the other, but too
far away to talk to the young woman.
The couple looked at each other with
longing eyes, as if they wished to sit
together. The car was rattling along
at a noisy rate, which made it impos-
sible for one person to talk to another
any distance away. Mr.. Barrett mo-
toned with his fingers to the young
man, and pointed to the seat he was
occupying, and also to the seat the
young man vas occupying, indicating
4 change Of seats.
The young man gladly accepted the
pro1fered change Of seats. and soon
the two were seated together and en-
joying each others talk. The car
stopped at the next crossing and MIR.
Barrett was surprised and amused to
hear the young wOmun murmur to the
young man, as both looked at Mr.. Bar
rett with thanks in their eyes:

dumb man to give you his seat"
