WORSE THAN ATTACK
(From Manchester Guardian)

(From Manchester Guardian)
 There are sailors who will tell you that the actual torpedoing of vessel was not very much worse than the sus- pense and the many false alarms-any of which might have proved to be an enemy submarine. A merchant captain was looking out to sea one day, when in the distance he thought he saw something dark and round He watched to see whether it would move It did move, and then suddenly it dived. There was no time to do anything, since he did not know from what di- rection the torpedo might come He waited. To his horror the dark, round object rose from the waves only thirty yards away from the boat. He said it was the worst moment in his life until he realized on further inspection that the "periscope" was in actual fact a large seal withga dirty yellow neck and a full crop of whiskers.

KENNY AND THE BIG GUN
Brooklyn Eagle)

There is an old, old story of an American artist, who never say any, thing in Italy that wasn't inferior to something in his own land One day his cosmoplite drinking companions drugged his wine, lugged him into the Catacombs an dwaited to hear his first remark when he came to himself. He worke, Gee ne cried, this is sure the Resurrection! Americas first She always is" Then he pulled an American flag out of a pocket and waved it about his head, shouting Three cheers for the United States of America"
 Some American citizen was sure to i claim the invention of the seventy five mile gun used by the Germans in oombarding Paris. It might as well be Paul T.. Kenny Irish in stock and temperament to the tips of his toes expert electrician, globe trotter and humorlst, as anyone else. And not Withstanding the Austrian official statement that the gun was made in Austria and does not use the mag netic principle, the Kenny claim is not uninteresting.
 In 1908, MT. Kenny says, he submit ted his plans to the war department l in Washington for a steel telescope gun, not less than 200 feet long, no explosives to be used, zones of the l barrel being covered by electro mag nets cumulatively stronger as the mug zle was approached the last having 32O00 horsepower. There would be no friction. The range would be from go to 100 miles. The war department de- clined the experiment. Five years af- ter Kenny, being in Berlin, offered the same plans to the German war office A commission of experts saw value to them. The managing director of the Krupps asked MT. Kenny to go to 4 Essen and superintend the construc- tion of gun. But more pressing mat ters called the American to Paris and he heard no more from the German T government. He returned to Berlin. however, and was a volunteer aide in Ambassador Gerard's office through the first five months of the war. It Is only fair to Mir Kenny to say that his story of the magnetic gun, and his experience with Washington and Der lin authorities was told to his friends four years ago, and is only recalled by the appearance of the 75-mile gun in actual service.
 Our war department in 1908 may have felt just fed if refusing to make expensive experiments on new ord nance lines. Paul T. Kenny may have felt justified in offering to Ger many, then a friendly power. in 1913, what Washington had rejected. No body could have been blamed if the Krupps had actually turned out from the Kenny plans the monster that shelled Paris. But as they did not,
 according to the Austrian official
 statement, the Kenny drawings have only academic interest.

Good roadsi Build them now and see how quickly good times will run down the roads," That is a slogan taken from one of the posters with which the United States department of labor in cooperation with the highways in dustries association is flooding the country in encouragement of highway construction.
 The government has taken other means to encourage road building, not only because the roads are needed, that prosperity may run down them, but that work may be furnished for all who need it.
