Use OF OIL FOR SHIP POWER

LONDON, February Is Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press).-.
Americans are a long way ahead OF
us in the use of oil fuel for ships
said j. H. Williams. an expert on ma
rine engineering, at a recent meeting
of the Institute of Marine Engineers.
"There is hardly an American ship
coming over today that is not burning
oil" he proceeded. To-day for ship
ping there is not the slightest doubt
that oil is a cheaper fuel than coal.
There are many ports today where oil
is half the price of coal. In South
America oil is displacing coal very
rapidly.
"Oil can be obtained out east in
practically every big port. Wherever
coal is dear, oil will displace it. We
are barbarians II we use coal today.
AS scientific men we should use oil,
which is coming into its own and has
q tremendous future"

UGLY WOMAN'S PICTURE

Lack of Beauty Seemed to En-.

Price of Portrait

LONDON, February 12 (Correspond-
ence Of the Associated Press) The
portrait by Quintin Matsys Of Mar
garet, Duchess of Carinthia and ry-
rol, called the ugliest woman on
earth in dim medieval days. was sold
at auction here the other day for
$50 guineas. Experts say that no
more appalling travesty of the hu-
man form has been conceived than
that which Matsys' brush left on the
canvas.
The great lady's face is described
as nearer that of one of the anthro-
poid apeS than q woman. with tinv
eyes. an upper lip incredibly long. a
nose for which no word can be found
and the whole monstrosity crowned
with a jeweled headdress that multi
nlied her charm a hundredfold, Her
lack of beauty seemed to enhance
rather than depress the price Of the

IBERIA is said to have been the only
state at war with Germany which
expelled every German from within

about 900 German citizens in Mon

rapidly becoming German protec-
torate, says Alan Bourchier Leth-
bridge, in the Daily Telegraph. The
Germans. he adds, controlled a giant
wireless plant and evidently had
made arrangements to use Liberia as

The nations death rate in 1919 was
1919 per thousand, the lowest ever re-
corded indicating, perhaps, that the
health lessons learned by reason of the
war were not learned in vain. 1t is
interesting to note that Barre's death
rate in the same year was IA per thou
sand, which was about the average and
a marked reduction from the previous
year when influenza took toll OF III
lives. The death rate in Barre IN
1918 was "a per thousand, as against
las in 1917, good year. The ten.
dency throughout the. country has been
toward lessened death rate, due to
the marked gain being made by medi'
cal science and common sense action on
the part of the public.
