THE MODERN LAD

Little Georgie had been very un. kind to little sister and had made hei cry. Uncle Tom, coming on the scene at this moment, took it upon himself to reprove Georgie.
 You should be kind," said Uncle Tom, who was old fashioned in his methods of treating children. once knew a little boy who hit his sis ter"
 "Oh, yes," said Georgie, "but don | tell me she pined and faded away with sweet words of forgiveness on her lips. I bet she hit that boy on the head so hard in return that he could not get his hat on for a month."

BUSINESS ON INCREASE
 LAST MONTH, IS REPORT

WASHINGTON, June 3.-A notice able upward trend in business during May, especially in those lines related to the leading retail trades which have felt the. release of buying power held back by the war, has been reported by the federal reserve board. Practically uniform reports from federal reserve agents were said to point to summer and autumn of unusual activity. A warning was added, however, against accepting the prospective prosperity at it's full face value until conditions become more clarified.

GERMANY LOST 198
 U-BOATS IN THE WAR

Germany lost 198 submarines during the war, according to statistics on this branch of the German naval service published in the Berlin Vossische Zeit- ung. This number included seven sub marines interned in foreign ports and fourteen destroyed by their own crews.
 More than 5000 sailors lost their lives in the submarine sinkings, the statistics show. while several thousand others lost their reason and had to be committed to lunatic asylums.

the ships reached the infested waters.
This would have been impossible In any
case with the limited number OF de-
stroyers.
But, from the time the conveys left
the home port. say New York or
Hampton roads. there was the pos
sibility of the same kind Of attack as
that to which conveys were subjected
in Nelsonian days-that Is from raid
ers or cruisers. We always feared that
German cruisers or raiders Of the
Moewe type might escape into the
ocean and attack these merchant ships.
and we therefore had to escort them
across the ocean with battleships and
cruisers, just as they did century
aco. The British did not have ships
enough available for this purpose. and
here again the American navy was
able to supply the lack: for we had

crs that were ideally adapted to this

sailors had entertained about them
selves. They suddenly discovered. as
had intimated. that they could do prac-
tically everything which, in their con-
ferences with the admiralty, they had
declared that they were unable to do.
In those meetings they had asserted
that not more than two ships could keep
station: now they discovered that the
whole convoy could sail with stipulated
distances between the vessels and keep
this formation with little difficulty.
They were drilled maneuvring on
the way--a practice carried out subse-
quently with all convoys-and by the
time they reached the danger zone they
found that in obedience to a prear-
ranged signal, all the ships could turn
as single one and perform all the zig
gag ewolutions which the situation de-
manded They had asserted that they

the pessimistic attitude of the
merchant captains, there were
number of officers in the British navy
who kept insisting that it should be
tried. In this discussion took my
stand emphatically on the side of this
school, "''
From the beginning I had believed in
this method of combating the U-boat
warfare Certain early experiences had
led me to believe that the merchant
captains were wrong in underesti-
mating the quality of their own steam
ship 1t was my conviction that these
Intelligent and hardy men did not really
know what splendid ship handlers they
were. In my discussions with them they
disclosed an exaggerated idea OF the
seamanly ability of naval officers in
maneuvering their large fleets They
attributed this to the superior training
or the men and to the special man
euvering qualities Of the ships
"Warships are built so that they can
keep station. and turn at any angle at
moments notice." they would say.
but we haven't any men on our ships
who can do these things"
AS a matter of fact these men were
entirely wrong. and I knew 1t. Their
practical experience in handling ships
OF all sizes. shapes and speeds under a
great variety of conditions is, therefore,
much moro extensive than naval officers
can possibly enjoy. I learned this more
than thirty years ago. when stationed
on the Pennsylvania school ship. teach
ing the boys navigation. This was one
OF the most valuable experiences of my
life. for 1t brought me In everyday con-
tact with merchant seamen. and it was
then that l made the discovery which
proved SO valuable to me now.
1t Is true that they had much to learn
about steaming and 'maneuvering in
formation. but I was sure they could
pick 1t up quickly and carry it out sue
cessfully under the direction of naval
ofhcers-the convoy commander being
always naval officer.
The naval officer not only has a group
Of vessels that are practically uniform
In speed and ability to turn around
quickly. but also he Is provided with
various instruments which enable him
to keep the revolutions Of his engines
constant. to measure distances and the
like. Moreover. as Junior officer. he
Is schooled in maHeuvering these very
ships for some years before he Is trusted
with the command Of one of them, and
he. therefore. not only knows their
peculiarities. but also those of their
captains-the latter very useful infor-
nation, by the way.
Though 1t was necessary for the
merchantmen, on the other hand, to
bring their much clumsIer ships into
formation with perhaps thirty entirely
strange vessels Of different sizes, shapes,
speeds, nationalities and maneuvering
qualities. yet was confident that they
were competent to handle them success
fully under these difficult conditions In
deed, afterward one Of my most expert
enced destroyer commanders reported
that while he was escorting convoy Of
twenty y-eight ships they kept their sta
tions quite as well as battleships while
they were executing two maneuvers to
avoid submarine. '~

Such influence as I I'possessed at this
time. therefore, I threw with the group
OF British officers which was advocating
the convoy.
Yet there was still one really serious
impediment to adopting this convoy
system, and that was the lack Of de-
stroyers. The British, for reasons which
have been sufficiently explained, did not
have tho necessary destroyers for this
work. This was what made so very i'm
portant the participation Of the United
states In the naval war. We had the
additional vessels that would make pos
sible the immediate adoption Of the con-
voy system.
do not wish to say that the convoy
would not have been established had
We not sent tho destroyers for that pur-
pose. yet do not see how 1t could have
been established in any complete and
systematic way at such an early date.
And we furnished other ships than de-
stroyers. for besides providing what I
have called the modern convoy-pro-
tecting tho compact mass OF vessels
from submarines-it was necessary also
to furnish escorts after the Old Ma.
poleonic plan. It was the business OF
the destroyers to conduct the merchant
men only through the submarine some.

Natural Resources of China.

One reads in Chinese history that
several centuries before the beginning
of the Christian era the banners of
China were carried to the Caspian sea.
there to meet the banners of Rome,
and that the way was thus paved for
China's silks and iron in European
markets. The Shansi iron industry is
claimed by a Chinese writer to be the
oldest in the world. Like many others
of the great resources of China, the
country's deposits of iron ore have
been but little developed. . DR.. III. Fos-
ter Balm, assistant director of the
United States Bureau of Mines, who
spent some time in China investigating
its mineral resources, estimates that
China has 400,000,OOO tons of iron ore
available and suitable for modern fur
mace reaction and an additional 3OO,-
100000 tons that might be treated by
native methods.

SAGE AND SULPHUR
DARKENS GRAY HAIR
IT'S Grandmother's Recipe to Restore
Color, Gloss and At
Effectiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get large
bottle of this famous old recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally and
evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
your hair, taking one small strand at
a time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, and after another application
or two your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy and attractive.-Adv.
