LESSON FOR HUMAN BEINGS
World Might Be Better II Mankind
Would Copy the Doings Of the
Honey Ant.

An interesting resident Of central
Australia is the honey ant. This in
sect Is found In dugouts going down
as far aS five or six feet. The open
ing is small about I'm inch across, but
II you dig out one of the nests you will
find tunnels and crosscuts running
from the main shaft. In one or more
of these chambers is found the true
honey ant. The ordinary workers run
the show rs Il cooperative concern.
They collect the honey, bring II to
the nest, and there feed II to certain
members of the elan. The sweet stuff
is forced into these animated pantries
until the abdomen becomes so large
that the remainder of the ant Is fly
spcck on ii. The swollen ones are abb
sOlutely helpless, and have TO remain

season slackens off the community
falls back on their cnld.storage supply.

SCOUTS IN TRANSPORT WORK.

That scouts can be relied upon for
any patriotic duty is shown by this let
ter from the general superintendent
of the United States army transport
service. If there Is any place where
the order to "allow only Americans on
guard tonight" should be repeated, 1t
is on the docks from which our boys
board the ships for France. Here is
the letter to national headquarters
from Lieut.. Col. f. P. Jackson:
"In reference to telephone conver-
sation regarding boy scouts, I have
two employed In the supplies division,
army transport service, as messen-
gers. Their duties as messengers re-
quire them very often to carry off,
cial documents of confidential na-
ture from the various government Of
fees, piers, etc. believe boy scouts
give more satisfactory services, due to
their training, and can be relied upon
to carry out strictly any instructions
given them"

NO ROOM FOR
PEss|M|sM
Canada as a Nation Builder.

With Canadas great task In the
war before the public. the burdens
that she so willingly took and 80 ably
carried, and her recent victory in sub
scribing $175,O00,0O0 to the 5th Vic
tory Bond Loan more than she asked,
he would be skeptic who would as
sociate the word pessimism with her
present condition. Canada deplores
the heavy human loss which she has
suffered, but even those akin to those
lost In battle say with cheerfulness
that while the sacrifice was great, the
cause was wonderful, and accept
their sufferings with grace. 1t may
well be said there Is no room In Can
ada today for the pessimist. The ag-
ric :, tural production Of the country
has doubled in four years. $14O,OOO.-
600 are the railway earnings today
or 3h times what they were ten years
ago, while the bank deposits are now
81, ,733, ,0O0,O 900 as compared with $133.-
100000 thirty years agd.
There rs wonderful promise for
the future.
It is with buoyancy that Canada
faces an era Of peace. She has tri-
umphed over the soul-testing crisis OF
war. Before the war Canada was a
borrower, and expected to continue so
for many years. For the past year and
half we have seen her finance her
self. She has also been furnishing
credits to other nations.
A recent article in the Boston
Transcript" says:
THE people at home have not been
tagging behind the boys at the front In
courage, resourcefulness and efficiency.
The development Of Canada's war In
dustry Is an industrial romance Of
front rank. American Government Of
ficials can testify to the efficiency of
the manufacturing plant Canada has
bull. up in four short years. In De-
partment after Department where they
found American industry failed them
they were able to turn to Canada. The
full story may be revealed some day."
Ahe same paper says:
"It is new Canada that emerges
from the world war in 191S-a nation
transformed from that which entered
the conflict in 1914.
'The war has taken from Canada a
cruel toll. More than $4,000 of her
bravest sons lie in soldiers graves in
Europe. Three times that number
have been more or less incapacitated
by wounds. The cost Of the war In
money Is estimated to be already
$1,100,000,000. These are not light
losses for country Of S,OOOO people.
Fortunately there Is also a credit side.
Canada has found herself in this war.
She has discovered not merely the gal
lantry Of her soldiers, but the brains
and capacity and efficiency of her
whole people. In every branch. in
arms, in industry, in finance, she has
had to measure her wits against the
world. and In no case has Canada rea-
son to be other than gratified."-Ad-
vertisement.

II. NJ. S. Melampus-the officers came
over the sides, saluted and there the
ceremony ended. The guard was
mounted forward and aft to prevent
intercourse with the British crew, but
that was hardly necessary. The com
ments of the crew were very unfavor-
able and chiefly turned on Lewis guns
and bombs.
Look at them Iron Crosses! What
did they get them Iron Crosses for?
For doin' down sailor men and women
and children-the Belgian Prince,
Landovery Castle! That's the sort of
thing for the Iron Crosses they're wag-
ging about. Look at them"
Very Strange Sight.
When some Of the men looked with
an attempt at superciliousness at the
crew that had clustered aft one of
our men replied by pointing meaningly
to depth charge on the side. The
German submarine men knew well
what that meant in the past 1t was
n very strange sight, the German Off
Gers, and men on the British destroyer
gazing across a few yards of space to
the British seamen gazing at them.
What waves of will and heart must
have passed back and forward in that
crowded boat, what pages of racial
history!
There was no sign of any change In
German discipline. The officers were
as one expected and the men were as
one expected; everything the officers
commanded was Immediately obeyed.
There was mo sign of civilian commit
tees, except that there were two men
in civilian clothes on the bridge Of the
Titania. Strangely enough, there were
two similar figures on the bridge of
the British Melampus, two shabby
looking journalists. And so again the
Wolff bureau can lift its witching
voice and tell the respondent Huns
the British sailors soviet was in COM
mand of the boarding operations.
The last event Of the day was see
ing the German submarines, now
pnrged of their crews, lying in punches
of three securely moored in the inner
harbor of Harwich.
1t was growing dark and their curl
Gus CHASTITY shapes recalled other
ghosts-ghosts of women and children
and merchant seamen-pallid, blood
less human faces floating onto the
lift of the water in the gray deserted
wastes of the Atlantic.

Great Bend (Kan.) cyclone Of Novem-
her. 1915; the Coffeyville cyclone OF
1917, and the tornado at Garfield park

SCOUTS DISPATCH BEARERS

George Creel, chairman of the COM
mittee on public information, has ad-
dressed the following letter to the Boy
Scouts of America in appreciation Of
their services as dispatch bearers for
the government:
"Dear Mr.. West-I wish to take this
opportunity to express to you my APP
probation for the assistance the Boy
Scouts of America have been to the
committee In its work.
"Public opinion stands recognized as
vital part Of national defense, a
mighty force in national attack. The
strength Of our firing line is not in
trench barricade alone, but has its
source in the morale of the civilian
population from which the fighting
force Is drawn.
"As dispatch bearers the boy scouts
have carried the message Of our pres
ident to more than five million homes,
and as result of the postcards en-
closed, the committee has filed near
ly two million requests for pamphlets
on the vital questions of the war.
"The battle for public. opinion has
been won. There is no Organized dis
loyalty. individual disloyalty has been
isolated and marked down. We have
unity in the land today unexampled in
the history of this or any other nation.
"The boy scouts have had their part
In winning this battle and they can do
much to help maintain the unity so
essential to victory"

Eyewitness Story Of UBoat Surrender Makes Greatest Naval His
torica Incident Thrilling Narrative Of Retrbution That
Appeals Strongy-No Signs of Any Change in

New York.-The most remarkable
element of this remarkable war has
been its coincidence, says a corre-

witnessed the surrender of the first
lot Of submarines by the Germans. On
that tense November morning when
through the gray mists Of the North

boats to surrender to the British navy

stroyer, II, NJ. S. Melampus.
The setting for the last act Of the
terrible sea drama of this century was
fittlng-a still morning with the mists
just breaking, n forlorn silver moon
lingering, though the red sun was
bbeaming through In the east. Above
our heads was q patch of green and
lemon sky. and the North sea lay with
hardly IL ruflle, gray with hint of
gold, like the pulsation Of hidden

white, some dappled, some black, came
out Of the mist, their crews standing
on deck like black fence, no colors

submarines, with others out of vision.
The sun had grown stronger and the
light cruisers and destroyers were
picked out in white in their beautiful

yellow flag, in the chief position.
As one looked at the destroyer car
rying the British submarine comman-
ders and crews who were to take over
the German submarines the British
ships seemed to form circle, and
British white ensign at the peak. The
British ships, too, had stopped and
seemed to lie expectantly watching the
final event. 4

To n spectator. the flags seemed as
eternal as the hills that looked down
on Childe Roland at the hour of his
fate. But when the German subma-
rine navy came TO it's dark tower to-
day there was no bugle blast. The
event was accomplished with English
decorum and German stolidity.
One Captain Even Wept.
One German commander protested
against navigating his vessel into har-
bor, and his protest was recorded, and
he navigated his ship into harbor. An
other commander broke down as he
left his ship and could not conceal his
tears. Another, when the British COM
mander went on board, was unable to
speak for minute, and had to signal
