MANY PERSONS SOUND BLIND
Peculiar AffIictlon That II IL Now
Asserted ls Not Uncommon
Among Mankind.

Color blindness is by no means an
uncommon complaint. for many peo-
pie, although they may possess per-
feet eyesight for reading or seeing
long distances, are quite unable to dis
tinguish between green and red and
many other pairs Of colors. Lately 1t
has been found that some suffer from
an exactly similar affection OF the
hearing power-that Is, an inability to
distinguish particular shades of sound.
A school teacher reports boy who
could not distinguish at all between
the sounds of "very," perry" and
"Polly," and yet he could hear at as
great distance as anybody. Another
youngster would spell Different
"drifent." He said that was how 1t
sounded to him. Several others ran
the letters "r," "n" and Il" together In
a hopeless way. being unable to tell
one from the other.

Boys in Park Mob
A New-Found Hero

Come on, George, play ball with
us. oh, forget about the picture !"
This was among the greetings ex-
tended to George Walsh recently
when he arrived n Central Park, New
York, to make scenes for one Of his
pictures.
The boys were out in numbers. and
remembered that George once was a
member of the Brooklyn National
League Club. Nothing would do
but that he play ball with the young
sters, so he was escorted to an open
space. The boys-there must have
been at least 500 present spread out
all over the lot, and George knocked
"flies" to them.
They kept the star at the game
most of that morning, and picture
making was temporarily forgotten.
1t was only by promising them to
play again in the afternoon that the
boys eventually released George so
ne could go ahead with thepicture.

Victory Liberty Loan Of
fers Last Opportunity
to Help Gov
eminent
No More Government Loans
to be Offered People
Says Secretary of
Treasury

Atlanta, April 26.-The Victory
Liberty Loan offers the final oppor-
tunity for American people to sub
scribe to the Government securities
Of large denominations. for financing
the great war. Invest now before
the books are closed and be number
ed among the Millions Of citizens
who loaned their money to bring the
war to a speedy conclusion.
This is the appeal made by Victo-
ry Loan workers throughout the
Sixth Federal Reserve District. by
county and district workers. Its eff.
feet IS being felt through an ava
lanche of subscriptions being re-
ported to headquarters As the cam"
paign advances, the gloom which
seemed to have settled over the dis.
trict before April 2lst is rapidly dis.
appearing. Every day. counties are
being reported over the top" with a
wide distribution of securities.
Reports from county chairmen in
dicate that aside. from the fact that
this is the last chance to subscribe
to the Liberty Loan, the attractive
investment features of the Victory
Loan are bringing thousands of sales
from ~nected quarters. People
are BEGINNING to realize that a gov
ernment security paying q 3-4 per
cent interest is not offered every
doy. This being the last popular war
loan the investor does not want to
lose the opportunity to put his mon
ey where it VIII bring the largest
possible return with the strongest
backing
The first week of the i Y
Loan campaign is drawing to close
with a better showing for the Sixth
District than in any previous drive.
While offieial reports from the treas
ury departInent do not show up very
we'll. district officials have informa-
tion from county chairmen showing
that this district has placed larger
proportion of its quota at this time
than at he same period in previous
campaigns. =
1t has been surprising to some
chairmen how easy it has been to
sell the Victory Loan. In some
quarters it was thought the people
would not buy again, but in many
instances these very counties were
the first to be reported over.

FISH THAT KNOWS NO FEAR
Killer Whale Easily Holds Title Of
Most Ferocious Of the Ami.
mails Of the Deep.

The killer whale Is one Of the most
deadly animals that swim in the sea.
Killers are found in almost every ocean
Of the world, but, because Of the nature
Of their food, they use as feeding
grounds the sounds and bays along the
coast, rather than the open sea. They
are ferocious pursuers, constantly de-
stroying more than they eat.
killers apparently will eat anything
that swims," says Roy c. Andrews, Of
the American museum, who has been
studying whales for some time. "Fish,
birds, seals, walrus and other whales
are all its prey. Its capacity is almost
unbelievable. There Is record Of thir-
teen porpoise and fourteen seals being
taken from the stomach Of a 21-f0ot
specimen" The capacity Of the killer
has given rise to number of fantastic
tales, one Of which tells Of a killer be-
ing seen with seal under each flipper,
a third under it's dorsal fin and
fourth in it's mouth. In pursuing, the
killer bellows in a terrifying manner.
Killers are the only whales that feed
upon their own kind. They sometimes
GO in company by dozens and set upon
a young whale, batting him like so
many bulldogs. Some will lay hold OF
his tail, while others bite at his head
and thrash him until the animal dies.
So great is the strength of the killer
that single one, by fastening its teeth
into the body Of dead whale being
towed by several whaling boats, can
carry 1t to the bottom in an instant.
They know no fear and in parties they
will attack the largest whale.
Not even a ship, or number OF
ships can daunt the ferocious killer,
who frequently, through its boldness,
help whaling parties by terrifying their
mutual prey into nonresistance.-From
an American Museum Of Natural His
tory Bulletin.

Robert Louis stevenson's Prayer.

Robert Louis Stevenson's last prayer
tells us how all great men live by faith
Of the life immortal. Assembling his
servants, at the end Of the day. in his
house In Samoa, he prayed: Behold
us with favor, folk Of many families
and nations; gathered together liz the
peace Of this room. Weak men and
women, subsisting under the covert Of
thy patience, be patient still. Suffer
us yet while longer, with our broken
purposes Of good, with our idle en-
deavor against evil. Bless to US our ex-
traordinary mercies; If the day come
when these must be taken, brace us to
play the man under affiiction. Call
us up with morning faces and with
morning hearts. eager to labor, eager
to be happy, IL happiness shall be our
portion, and, If the day be marked for
sorrow, strong to endure. From q
sermon by the Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight
Hills at Brooklyn, N. 7.

Support Summer
Training Camps


The marked success attained last
year at Camp Steever in giving mill
itary training to high school students
has led t plan for a continuation of
these camps every summer. The in
fluence of the training at Camp Stee-
yer has extended throughout the
middle west, and at the present time
two-thirds of the boys who are re-
ceiving military training in the
schools live in this section of the
country. Due also to last summers
training camp, it has been the Chi
cago plan of military training in the
schools which has principally been
adopted.
This summer the camp will be es-
tablished in Michigan under the name
of Camp Roosevelt. 1t will be in
charge of Capt F. L. Beals. who
conducted the training at Camp Stee-
ver The army department is lend
ing cordial support to the project.
Gen. Peyton c. March, chief of staff,
and other high army officials being
members of the Camp Roosevelt
committee, which also includes twen-
ty-five prominent Chicago business
and professional men.
The summer training camp is of
unquestionable advantage to the bow
and it is likewise of advantage to the
nation. The people of Chicago who
have observed the training in the
schools and at Camp Steever need no
argument to convince them of its
value Now that the war is over there
will undoubtedly be lessening of
the incentive to take up military
training but we should not forget
its benefits in times of peace. Every
one who has the interest of our
country at heart should support the
Camp Roosevelt plan.
