LEvIATHAN A HARD SHIP TO

The Leviathan presents so much
surface above the water line that she
~ susceptible to the Influence OF
wind blowing against her port or star
board side. She always lists In a
breeze because her load OF soldiers
is above her centre OF gravity and the
longer she is at sea the lighter she
becomes below because OF the steady
depletion OF her supply OF coal and
TIE fresh water in her ballast tanks.

below decks. Inasmuch as the top
bunk. on the four-tier plan, is al
ready so close to the ceiling that the
occupant must ease himself in head
first from the foot, or feet first from
the head, his entrance method de-
pending on where he goes in the
status OF that bunk. in relation TO the
supporting posts, cannot be changed.
Therefore a bunk for an additional
man must be inserted below the man
on top.
Necessarily the man in the bottom
bunk must sleep on the concrete or
iron floor with nothing between him
and the floor but a thin strip OF can
vas and b.anket. The man above him
rests, practically. upon his body, and
so on UP TO the top man. who has
nothing above him but the steel sur
face OF the deck.
The space devoted on the old
Vaterland to a swimming pool Is to
be boarded over and turned into a
seven bunk high compartment. In
order 10 allow the men on the top Of
the seven row hunks in this compart-
ment to go to bed. II will be necessary
TO build platforms alongside the bunk
spaces. from which they can roll into
their sleeping quarters. The ventila-
tion in this section Of the ship is not
OF the best. and 1t has not heretofore
been used for troop lodgment pur-
poses.
Latrincs and washrooms on the Le-
viathan are insufficient even now.
This primo factor in the care OF men
must be enlarged so per cent. to care
for an increase OF 80 per cent in the
carrying capacity OF the ship. Every
foot devoted to latrine and washroom
purposes below decks must be taken
away from sleeping quarters. 1t is
only necessary in this connection to
say that one coming out OF the open
air into a latrine space on the Lcvia-
than in the early morning hours on
the last trip had TO desire TO repeat
the eNperience-but the men quar-
tered below decks must use the lat
rines provided.
With 10000 men quartered on the
boat 1t is possible 10 make n distri-
button which will enable all who are
not on guard or special details to
sleep at night. The addition of S 900
men-equal, for the purpose OF COM
parison. TO the population OF Palisade.
N. Twill require division of sleeping
time into shifts. The same bunk must
be occupied by two men. each sleeping
in II for a minimum OF eight hours.
The utilization of sleeping quarters
for more than one man TO n bunk is
forbidden by law, in the interest OF
public health. in the commonest slum
lodging houses in the cities Of the
United States.
To accommodate $4,000 men on the
Leviathan 1t will be necessary TO
board in deck spaces now used for
exercise and rest purposes. Look at
a photograph OF the Leviathan as she
appeared coming up the bay Wcdnes-
day Note the open spaces between
the after derrick and the bridge
on the two decks below that on which
you see the lifeboats. These Are the
decks open to soldiers in the daytime
when there are 10000 on board. with
a load of $1,000 men these open decks
will be incosed.

Two thousand OF the eth Division
are back in Camp Mills to-day after
twenty -four hours at home, and an
equal number have been given passes
for the first visit to their families
since the boys sailed for France to
break the Hindenburg line.
As they leave the camp the soldiers
are greeted by a crowd that keeps up
an all day vigil across the street
from the main entrance. Each mans
appearance Is the signal for cheers,
and one or more in the crowd break
through and hurries to caress IL
blushlng hero.
The Hostess House near the gate Is
the Mecca for thousands OF mothers
and sweethearts, notified by long dis
tance telephone that their soldier boy
must wait another day or two for HIS
pass. Messengers are sent to the bar
racks and the soldiers run most OF
the three mile hike TO the Hostess

The Sweet Soups.

Heavy foods swallowed quickly
shock the stomach and frequently
cause nervous indigestion. Every one
should sip little clear thin hot soup
at the beginning of a heavy meal, and
in moment the gastric secretions
will begin to flow and the stomach
reacts and is ready for the food that
to follow. Always serve soup hot,
never lukewarm.
Waters in which vegetables are
boiled contain goodly quantity of
favoring and some mineral water, ex-
cept potato water, which is not whole
some. Use them in place of plain
water for soup making. The water
strained from rice is rich in starch
and should not be wasted. While it
cannot be used for clear stock, it may
be added to the ordinary scraps and
bones for a vegetable soup, and is far
more delicate as a thickening than
.,her cornstarch or Iiour for tomato,
cream of chicken or oyster soup For

favorings of both meats and vege-
tables are easily driven off in the
steam if they are boiled rapidly or
cooked too long.
The most important part of soup is
the meat stock. A good sized piece
of rib meat streaked with lean and
fat makes rich soup. Cook the meat
and set the liquid aside for a day to
cool, then skim off the grease. When
YOU boil a marrow bone for soup tie
a thin cloth over the end or the deli
cate morsel will escape into the soup
and be wasted by sklmming off with
ne fat. Every bit of meat, every
bone on the serving plate. the juices
from the meat plate, the carcasses of
turkeys, ducks and chickens should
all be utilized. The giblets, neck and
feet of poultry are good for giblet
soup. The feet of poultry are espe-
cially rich in gelatine. which gives
body and consistency to stock.
Cnici-en ana 4.i~i.oom soup: one
cup of white meat of chicken, six

Bully the Fighter.
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS.

Bully. the English sparrow. is a
born fighter. He never is happier
than when he Is in the midst of a
fight or a fuss Of some kind. The
fact that all his neighbors were
against him didn't bother Bully in
the least. Jenny and Mr.. Wren are
no towards. but the two together
were no match for Bully. In fact
Bully did not hesitate to fly fercely
at any of the onlookers who came
near enough. not even when they
were twice his own size. They could
have driven him from the Old Orchard
had they set out to. But just by his
holiness and appearance he made
them afraid to try.
All the time Mrs Bully sat In the
little round doorway. encouraging
him. She knew that as long as she
sat there 1t would be impossible for
either Jenny or Mr.. Wren to get in.
Truth to tell. she was enjoying IT
all. for she is as quarrelsome and as
fond of fighting as Is Bully himself.
you're sneak. You're a robberi
That's my house and the sooner you
get out of it the better" shrleked
Jenny Wren. jerking her tail with
every word as she hoped about just
out of reach Of Bully.
IL may nave Deen your house once,
but it is mine now. you little sn.p of
nothing" cried Bully. rushing at her
like a little fury. "Just try to put
us out II you dare! You didn't make
this home in the first place, and You
deserted It when you went south last
fall It's mine now. ana there isn't
anybody in the Old Orchard who can
put me out"
Peter Rabbit nodded. Hes right
there" muttered Peter. Il don't like
him and never will. but it is true that
he has perfect right to that house
People who go off and leave things
for half a year shouldn't expect to
find them just as they left them. N.Y.
my. my. what a dreadful noise! Why
don't they all get together and drive
Bully and Mrs. Bully out of the Old
Orchard? If they don't I'm afraid he
will drive them out. No one likes to
live with such quarrelsome neighbors
They don't belong over in this country
anyway, and we would be. lot better
off if they were not here. But l must
say. do have to admire their spunk"
All the time Bully was darting
savagely at this one and that one and
having thoroughly good time, which
is more than could be said of any one
else, except Mrs. Bully. I'll teach

AFFIRM VERDICT
AGAINST HORNING

The Court of Appeals today for the
second time affirmed the verdict of a
jury in the Police Court which found
George D. HOrning guilty of violating
the pawnbroker law in the District.
Horning appealed the case on differ
ent counts on two occasions TO the
Court OF Appeals.
The case was tried in the Police
Court about eighteen months ago and
sent to the District Court Of Appeals
where it was reversed and referred
back to the Police Court because of
an error.
Horning, before the act of Congress
OF February 4, 1913, prohibiting
pawnbroking in the District, con-
Quoted a pawnshop at Ninth and d
streets northwest
After the law went into effect he
opened an establishment in Virginia,
just across Highway Bridge, but still
conducted a warehouse at his old
place. Persons desiring a loan on
articles Of jewelry going to the Ninth
street establishment were taken to
the office in Virginia, it was said,
where the business was transacted.
1t was the contention of the au-
thOrities that Horning was transact
ing business in the District, and the
Court of Appeals in todays decision
affirmed this View.
