SAVES WASTAGE OF LIGHT
Device That Automatically Turns OF
Power Has Been Found to Be
Of Real Value.

One of the considerable sources Of
fuel waste Is the unnecessary burning
of electric lights. A large percentage
of lights are used chiefly for limited
periods, as for instance In cloak
rooms. They are turned on and then
heedlessly left burning. Thus we are
constantly recommended to shut Off
needless lights as a matter Of national
saving.
An invention designed to remedy
this condition Is the work Of j. Il.
Lewis of New York. BY pushing
button the light is turned on and glows
for predetermined period-say, Ave
or ten minutes-and then Is auto
matically cut off. The device has been
tested and found practical and seems
useful in the way OF checking electric
light waste.

saint Of football players, not alone be-

ere of the Danes. II was on that day,
according to tradition. that the Eng.
lish game OF football was invented.
with the head Of Dane as the ball.
ST. Brice, of course, was not RESPONSE

THE ARMADILlO AS A DIGGER
NAL Won Out In Quite
Easy Manner.

One day was standing on mound
earth and running to the very spot
where was standing began vigorously
digging to escape by burying himself
In the soil.
Neither men nor dogs had seen him.
and ! at once determined to capture
him unaided by anyone and imagined
II would prove very easy task.
Accordingly I laid hold Of his black
bone-cased tail with both hands and
began tugging to get him Off the
ground, but couldn't move him. He
went on digging furiously, getting
deeper and deeper into the earth, and
! soon found that instead OF me pull.
Ing him out he was pulling me In af.
ter him.
1t hurt my small boy pride to think
that an animal no bigger than cat
was going to beat me In trial of
strength. and this made me hold on
more tenaciously than ever and tug
and strain more violently, until not to
lose him had 60 SO fat OH the
ground. But IT was all for nothing.
First my hands. then my aching arms
were carried down into the earth, and
l was forced to release my hold and
get up to rid myself of the mound he
had been throwing up into my face
and all over my head, neck and shoul-

having finished preparatory school, he
was ready for the university.
He was born on Broad street, Lon

Milton inherited all his esthetic quail
ties--indeed. the rougher element at
college called him "the lady" though
all recognized his intellectually. Even
at that period, long before he was
twenty, he contemplated writing the
great paradise Lost" which was not
finished. it happened, for forty years.
During that long lapse of time Mil

twin poems, III Penseroso" and "L'Al-

red out; had written some stirring

opposing the leading politics; had re-
married and been left a widower
again; had lost his sight; had found
the three neglected children of his first
marriage not model daughters; had
lived In terrible loneliness In spite OF
his great fame, and had been persuad-
ed to marry third time, for the sake
of being looked after
He was an old man when the great
Paradise Lost" appeared. which Is
called "one of the few monumental
works Of the world" and his death
followed some ten years later.

they moved leisurely about the coun-
try. cashing q $500 Liberty bond now

be college students on their vaca-
tion.' and occupied 500 per week
suite of rooms. There the remain
ing $4,000 in bonds were recovered,
according to the police.
Millham and Eller were said to have
consulted Eicholz about the "jaunt,"

TINY WARCRAFT,
But AMERICAN,
KEEPLAKECLEAR
Drive Off Bolshevik Raider
Boats When They Make
Appearance

Medvejia Cora, Russian Poland,
Aug. 25.-Two tiny American war
craft" thirty-foot motorboat from
the cruiser Galveston and tha "a
foot motorboat from the yacht Yank-
ton each manned by Yankee jack
tars and carrying machine guns and
light artillery have been playing an
important role in keeping the north
end of Lake Omega clear of the Boil
shevik raider boats while the Allied
land forces moved along the shores
toward Petrozavodsk.
These boats, which have been re-
named Atlanta and Georgia, were
brought nearly six hundred miles
by rail from Murmansk and were
the first Allied warcraft launched on
Lake Omega. Since then British and
Russian craft have been launched.
The Atlanta had close shave a
few weeks ago in flfty-minute en-
gagement with a large Bolshevik
steamer which outranged the At
lantic's guns. Some of the shells
struck within ten yards of the At
lanta which sought safety at the
beach maintaining a running fire,
but the Bolsheviki gave up the
chase.
Lake Omega is dotted with bays
and inlets wherein a constant game
of hide and seek was played during
the twenty-four hours of daylight.
The American craft were under
the command of Lieutenant D. c..
Woodard, of Atlanta. Several Amer
lean vessels of the North Russian
squadron have been at target prac-
tice in the North Sea

SAYS MORE SHIPS
WILL BE NEEDED
ON PACIFIC COAST
Latin = American Representa-
tive Sees Big Need For
Expansion

San Francisco, Aug. 25.-Shipping
facilities connecting this city with
the western ports of Central and
South America will have to be in
creased very materially in the near
future, if the business men of the
Pacific Coast expect to maintain
their trade supremacy in the western
section of the countries affected, &C
cording to statement given out to-
day by Benno Schoch, the Latin
American representative of the
American Finance and Commerce
Company Mr.. Schoch says that
Great Britain and other European
nations are now entering that field
with very strong competition.
THE market on the western coast
of South America logically belongs
to concerns doing business through
the port of San Francisco" says
Mr.. Schoch. And if we desire to
hold our share of it, we must pro-
vide Immediately the tonnage in
ships to properly supply the prod
ucts that market demands. Several
district lines between japanese and
South American ports recently have
been established"
A movement to secure more ships
for South America through the Fed
eral Shipping Board is advocated by

WANT TO RETAIN
CHEMICAL SERVICE
Chemists Protest Proposal to
Abolish Warfare
Branch

Philadelphia, August 25.-on the
eve of the reunion of the Chemical
Warfare Service Of the United States
to be held in connection with the ap-
preaching annual meeting Of the
American Chemical Society. comes
the proposal to abolish q division of
the War Department which sprang
into being 10 meet conditions of the
world war.
Modern wars will in the future be
fought largely with the aid of chem
istry as is shown by the testimony
Of experts in many directions. AL
though Germany has BEEN stripped
of her fleets and armaments and her
army has been reduced to a skeleton.
she still retains her enormous chem
ical plants which are capable OF
spreading death and devastation. Her
dye plants. as was shown in the war,
can be converted in a few days to
arsenals for the making of death
dealing fumes.
Despite this condition, 1t is now
proposed to disband the Chemical
Warfare Service. and to make what
is left of it an adjunct Of the Engi-
neering Department of the Army.
Protests against this proceeding ere
being received from all parts of the
country. according to a bulletin is
sued to-day by the American Chem
ical Society.

GERMANY HAS
BIG DEFICIT IN.
FOOD SUPPLY
Must Do Without Coffee For
Long Time, Says Cab
met Officer

Berlin, Aug. 25. The German
deficit in food, the difference be-
tween the amount produced in Ger
many and Germany's normal needs,
amounts to 100000 tons of wheat,
100000 tons of meat and 1000. 900
tons of fats, says the Imperial Food
Ministry.
Immediate payment for these
necessary foodstuffs with inland re-
sources is unthinkable, the ministry
asserts. Only long term credits can
help and the acceptance of such
credits is only possible If Germany
works, for only then can the credi-
tors have confidence in paying abil-
ity of Germany.
1mm ediate decisive effect of the
removal of the blockade on the Ger
man food market is not expected by
the ministry, but rather long slow
continuation of improvement which
already makes itself felt. 1t de-
clares that control of export must
remain until the average between
import and expert has been estab-
lished.
Germany must make up it's mind
to do without coffee very largely in
the future, says the Imperial Com
missioner for colonial goods.
Authorities say Germany must
sharply restrict her imports OF
chocolate because of the low value
of the mark and must try to rely
on her own chocolate, the first pro-
duction of which is expected soon
