THE AMERICAN NAVY

Not yet can the great part the navy played in the war be fully de scribed, but in his annual report Secretary Daniels lifts the veil of secrecy from many details that will not lessen the just pride Americans have always taken in their war serv- ice at sea.
 The armistice, points out the New York World, found the navy personnel just short of 500,000 souls, while it's active work abroad employed more men than its entire strength when we entered the war No element monopolized it's attea- tion; it's Navy that Flies" snep- herded the fleets from the air, while its Marines won deathless fame at Belleau Woods. Nor did it shine in action while fumbling preDara- tion; the House Committee of In quiry found it's war wor'; on s.,ore "a remarkable record of achieve ment."
 Whether in laying 85,00D iuines in the vast sea barrage that shut Germany in, or rushing C G'y-dook and navy-yard expansion at home, or repairing German ships with amazing speed, or developin% e,cc- tric propulsion in the bigrest cruis CTS or adding niceties of l@ta:l 10 depth bomb practice, or placing it's huge guns on railroad cars to bat- ter down German defense far to- ward Metz. the navy was Jery day doing it's bit, or more. .A,,l the nature of it's delicate tasks wai such that even now not too lIcn can be said about all that has been done beyond landsmen's sight
 As an agent in social progress the navy has continued its scl,ool work among enlisted med, and las worked an improvement in their physical condition which IS attested by remarkable showing of health statistics, while the novel t"gli of rehabiltating men convicted of grave charges has drawn to the Portsmouth Naval Prison under Thomas NJ. Osbourne, the praise of naval men and prison reformers of both continents.
 What the navy is in future to be must depend upon circumstances Mir. Daniels foresees "an end of competitive building" We hope he may be right. For the present there is every reason to continue with the program of construction which he recommends. If in the long run we have mainly to provide for Survey and discovery and pro, lection, in addition to police duty of an international as well as of q national character" so much tho better.
 Toward that desired goal the navy has already given some impetus. 1, has promoted smaller League of Nations afloat by the teamwork to which Secretary Daniels referred in Springfield. "One outstanding blessing" of the war was the "sym pathy and comradeship between the American and British, F' 7" in close cooperation with other Allied navies" Such intimate re lations as his report describes witt British, French, Italian and Japan ese scamen can have had no paral'e On land and must greatly aid inter national understanding.
 That is looking ahead; far aheat perhaps. We can look back upor the great service which the nav, has rendered to the world; its para n unt ervice, and possibly, a de ciding factor in the mighty struggle Every troop-ship that enters harbol crowded with cheering soldier should remind us again of the sleep

TO FORM WAR SAVINGS
SOCIETIES In TENNESSEE
FIELD REPRESENTATIVES,
COME NEXT WEEK.
Plan to Organize State Into
Thrift Clubs in Less
Than Two Weeks.

War savings work in the state of
Tennessee will not be dropped with
the resignation of State Director j.
w. Bishop and practically his entire
organization. 1t is reported that a
force of twenty field representatives
will invade the state next week to
inaugurate campaign, especially
among the wage earners in factories
and industrial plants. According to
plans given out from Atlanta, the
zone headquarters, the thrift boost
ers now working in Montgomery and
other cities will concentrate in Men,
phis early next week.
1t is thought that the work of or
ganizing thrift societies in all of the
towns in the state will REQUIRE less
than two weeks, the organization
working east from Memphis. The
force of representatives will unite In
Nashville and proceed from this point
to Knoxville and thence to Chatta-
nooga and intermediate points. The
plan for Tennessee is similar to that
employed in the other territory under
the Atlanta headquarters.
Societies will be formed in every
store office and factory where there
are five or more employees to encour-
age thrift. Each member is urged
to save a definite sum each week. In
other states civic organizations, as
we'll as business men and public Of
ficials, have co-operated with the
plan OF the federal director and the
off Gals of the war savings campaign
feel confident their plan will meet
with the same success in Tennessee.

RIDDLE LEAGUE NATIONS
MISSOURI SENATOR APP
PEALS TO SOUTH.

Provoke Instead of Pre-
vent War.

Atlanta, July f1,--ln an appeal to
the people of the south TO support
the league of nations covenant, Sem
ator Reed. democrat, of Missouri, de-
clared here last night that 1t would
prove a provoker of war instead of
the means for preventing war as
claimed by President Wilson in his
address to the senate Thursday.
Speaking in short sentences, with
lengthy pauses between each, Mr..
Reed continued:
president Wilson told you that
God is running this thing. A good
many men have undertaken to rep
resent God. / don't believe It, They
tell you that these nations are going
to sit down and be good, but what
has not been brought about in 1000
years by Christ's sermon on tho
mount, will not be accomplished at
a Paris peace conference"
The Missourian begged his hearers
not to be swept away by the "ideal-
ism" of the president, but TO stand
for the practical things of the re-
public since the days Of Washing
ton. He denied tho right of a tenn
porary public officer to sacrifice the
lives and the fortunes Of his people
while he sat safe at home inditing
essays"
Mr.. Reed discussed the various
questions that came up at the peace
conference, including the Irish and
the Shantung issues, and turning to
the labor agreement. he added:
"The proposition is that labor has

CARVED LADY'S CORSET
SequatchIe Valley Dentist Aids Lady
DiSfreSs

SequatchIe Valley Dentist Aids Lady
In Distress.
Sequatchie, July 11.-(Special.) THE
following amusing incident is passing
the rounds in this valley. A prominent
dentist was asked to pull a tooth for
lady from the mountain district of
Alabama. The tooth was firmly rooted
but had an abscess at the roots of it.
The dentist, who is very humane
man, essayed the job with trepidation,
and succeeded in extracting the tooth.
But to his dismay the patient showed
signs of collapse. Restoratives were
hastily applied but her condition grew
worse, and the frantically working dem
fist had unpleasant visions unless there
was prompt relief. Two or three lady
friends were with the patient and he
limited to them that if the lady's corset
should be loosened she would have
better chance to get air. This was
acted upon at once. or rather attempted.
but sad to say, the corset strings were
drawn so tightly and the knot so fast
that it was impossible to loosen them.
The ladies in despair appealed to him
for help to relieve the fast sinking pa
tient, and he rose nobly to the occasion.
Drawing his knife he quickly slashed
the rigid strings. all the more tightly
drawn on account of the condition of
the patient. and relief was instantly
afforded. When the excitement had
somewhat cooled down, the dentist
quoth, Madam, you must have bor-
rowed that dress to lace yourself so
tight to get into it"
