EAGLE BOATS
MAKING GOOD
Operating on Dispatch Service
in North Russian
Waters

Aboard U. S. Eagle Bont No. 3, In
white Sea, Aug. 5.-American Eagle
boats now are operating on dispatch
service in North Russian waters.
Eagle Boats Nos. l. 2 and 8, the
first built of this type for the Ameri-
can Government, arrived in Arch
angel after a $500 mile run under
their own steam from the Atlantic
seaboard and according to their Of
fcers, have more than made good.
Crews of the larger naval vessels
are inclined to chaff the Eagle Boat
men and call these craft the tin
lizzies" of the navy, but the officers
of the Eagles are proud of their sea-
worthiness and efficiency.

seaworthiness.
In Archangel, at this season of the

tropical, and the American officers

days of June, were confronted, in
stead, with temperatures and sun
shine that made white duck the pres
cribed uniform.
Two hours out of Archangel, how
ever, at the entrance to the White
Sea, the Eagles ran into cold gale
and snowstorm which set the light
craft tossing and rolling and forced
the crews quickly into their woolens
and oilskins. However, the Eagles
kept ploughing along to their course,
and arrived in KEN harbor none the
worse for one of the worst gatherings
they have yet received.
With their two four-inch guns, one
three-inch anti-aircraft gun, and ma
chine-gun anti-airplane battery, the
Eagles might be expected to give
good account of themselves, say the
officers, against submarines or any
above the water craft or anything
near their size.

HULL HOUSE ONCE HOME
OF pIONEER CITIZEN

Chicago.-Hull House, Chicago, gets
it's name from the fact that the house
was originally built in 1856 as res.
idence for one of Chicago's pioneer
citizens, Charles j. Hull. After pass
ing through many changes, occupied
once as secondhand furniture store,
then as factory, then as a tenement
house, with a reputation for a haunt
ed attic, it finally, in 1889, passed into
the hands of Miss Jane Adams as the
headquarters and center of her char
ity and reform work. At first she
rented the house and repaired and
furnished it at her own expense, but
a few months later the ownr gave
her a free lease of the house which
ran for many years.

WEARY OF ROUTINE.
Eternal Protest Against Same

Act Of Man Who Died Rather Thai.
subnisto the Wearisome Common
placeness Of Life Causes inter-
3 esting Comment.

A newspaper item reports the sui
eide of man who declared that he
MAS tired Of everlastlngly lacing his
shoes and then unlacing them again.
Petty enough the act appears in the
grist of the days news, but the report
of it (be it fact or fiction) fingers in
the mind till against larger back
ground of time it begins to take on
Significance, even to find a place be-
side immortal acts of legend and fa7
miliar attitudes of art. Here was a
man who found the master knot of his
fate in his shoe lacings. Was he
fool or a hero? Alexander has fame
for an act which as a symbol might
have much the same significance, q
resolute blow of the sword through
the GOrdian knot, which dispOses OF
the difficulty without solving the prob
lem. For himself the suicide had dis.
missed routine with a sUave gesture
and with superb finality, bit he leaves
mankind in the attitude of LAGOON,
agonizingly entangled in Shoe lacings,
the serpent routine, huge, insensate,
unrelaXng. In its grip man wrlthes'
forever hopeless of escape. To this
group the suicide waves jaunty fare
well-"The best of luck to you," he
says. I'm out of It. anyway
Whatever our scorn for him, we
must admit that he voices uumistak-
ably the eternal human protest against
routine; that it is really only in the
suavity Of his gesture and the supreme
finality of the rejection that he goes
beyond the rest of us. The feeling
that commanded his act is nearly the
most universal of human impulses.
We all rebel bitterly in the days when
heaven lies about us, and the later
shades of the prison house are nothing
more than the creeping paralysis of
hopeless submission. Only those of u6
who have trodden the mill so long
that we are almost irreclaimably sub
dued to what we work in prefer, in
such times as these when we have the
choice, counters and ledgers to
trenches and barbed wire. The lad
who with a whOop of JOY filings behind
him his columns of figures or vaults
the counter in his eagerness to rush
Into poison gas and machne-gun fire,
though his gesture is one of bravery
rather than suavity, is that of Alan
Brock, rather than of Beau Brummel,
makes his rejection of routine no whit
less final than does the hero of the
newspaper item. And he is not the
one in million who makes the Ma
honal army.-Robert 2. Utter in Har-
per's Magazine.
