MY PART IN WINNING THE WAR

III soon be back from this terrible war,
Covered with honor and medals galore,
Back from chasing the terrible Huns
Back from the crash and the Of the guns
Back from doing my duty well
A regular hero was-t'lke hell
I'll soon be back on the job again
Out Of the trenches, the cold and the rain
Where fought fierce battles like other dubs
BY drinking Bevo in Newport News Clubs.
Back from doing my wonderful stunts
Of marking time the Newport News front.
Yes I'll be back from doing my bit
Showing my courage and proving my grit
Playing my part in that awful jam
By eating my meals Uncle Sam.
In fact there's much more that could tell
Of my record in winning the war-"like hell.
Yes I'll soon be home with the gang more,
And know they'll josh just to make me sore
They'll say I'm soldier of peaceful ways
I'll hear about this to the end of my days,
But I'll just say this: to the boys who kid"
By God tried and that's than you did.

GOLD LOST TO THE WORLD
Destruction of Precious Metal Practi- caIIy Goes On Without Ceasing,
 Either Day or Night.

Every ship that goes 10 the bottom takes with her a certain amount of gold. It may be only a few pounds worth or-as in the case of the fla nous Lusitanfa-a million may be lost i'll a minute.
 Every fire that occurs means de- Struction of gold, and there is never minute, day or night, when scores of human habita ions are not burning. London alone has 2.4OO fires yearly.
 Besides all this. there is the matter of boarding. In countries where banks are not found in every town.@ the peO- pie who have gold hide or bury it. In many cases they die without reveal ing the hiding place. In this way India alone swallows up more than f5OO,OOO worth of gold yearly, China more than this, while Africa is at pres ent absorbing gold in this way at n rate of more than a million pounds a year. The money is paid as wages to Kaffir labOrels at the mines, and by them carried away to their kraals, whence it never returns.

DREW NO STRONG HYPOCRITE
Absence of Such a Dominating Char acter From Shakespeare's Pages
 Explained by English Novelist.

Material for discussion among those who more or less know their Shake speare has been provided by Sir Wal ter Raleigh's suggestion on the lecture platform that Shakespeare created no complete and carefully drawn figure of a hyp0crite because the dramatiSt had had free and happy childhood. Tt is the chiId." says Sir Walter. who sees hypOcrites :" and so, as one fol- lows the argument at second hand in the column of a newspaper, Dickens, who had a harsher childhood, was more impressed by hypocrisy, and lat CT wrote about hypOcrites. One suspects: however, that there may be readers who will deny that Shakespeare failed to include the hypocrite in his remark able gallery of dramatic portraits. Hypocrisy certainly figures; one has oily to recall the behavior of GlOster or IagO to find the characteristic. but Sir Walter no doubt has ground for his conviction that the plays contain no figure dominated by it.

A crim- lral prosecution is now pending against one of the manufacturers of Saccharin for shipping it labeled as harmless within the jurisdiction of the federal food and drugs act
 Liable to Seizure.
 Foods in which harmless substi- tuteS have been used and no mention of the substitutes made on the labels, if shipped within the jurisdiction of the federal food and drugs act, are subject to seizure and the party re SDOnsible for the violation of law is liable to prosecution. Manufacturers of foods in which substitutes are used should see that the substitutes are stated on the labels in order to avoid violations of the federal or state laws.
 Regulation p, issued under the fed eral food and drugs act, provides in part as follows:
 "When a substitute of a recognized quality commonly used in the Drepara- ttOn of food or drug product is re- placed by another substance not in- furious to health, the name of the sub Stituted substance shall appear upon the label"

NEW CLAIM TO MAYFLOWER
English Woman Says She Is Descend ant of Original Owner of

Kings Lynn, Norfolk, Eng.-There is a new theory relative to the owner ship of the MaytioWer. Mrs. Mar garet FarrOW claims to be a descend ant of the original owner of the emi- grant vessel, one Richard Bunting of South Creek, who farmed in the Duchy of Lancaster.
 Mrs. Farrow declares that in the will of that gentleman, dated 1901, he bequeathed to Thomas Bunting "All debts he owed me and also my boat, the Mayf1ower, and all things belong ing to her.
 Among other domestic papers of the family there is an entry to the effect that ''the Mayflower, loaded with corn, was taken to Holland instead of to Rye and was fined.''
 Norfolk folk now claim the vessel as their own.

New York.-For months naval au- horities and private steamship com panies have been seriously consider mg the conversion of vessels from coal to oil burners and some have already made that change. The coal mine strike has quickened plans to make fuel oil the ship-propelling power of the future, and many companies have announced their purpose to run their craft with oil instead of coal.
 Oil, it is argued by engineers en- gagged in making the change, will cut large slices from the expenses of Op- eratiOn, the size of crews, eliminating coal stOkers and increasing cargo space by releasing much space now given over to coal.

D'OuER: HEAD OF AMERICAN LEGION

Thousands upon thousands of re- turned soldiers would rather be in Col Franklin D'Olier's place than be presi- dent of the United States of America.

 Colonel D'Olier is a wool merchant of Philadelphia. When the United States entered the war he offered his services and was commissioned cap tain in the Quartermuster corps.
