Naval Reserve officers Of the District
may take their summer cruise aboard
destroyers of the Atlantic fleet, accord
ing to an announcement of Lieut.. Com
mander w. r. Hoefer. executive officer
of the local reserves. Word to this
effect was received by Commander
Hoefer from the Navy Department.
The destroyers to which the reserve
officers will be assigned are based on
Newport. r. l.. and will make period
ical sailings to sea with reserve officers
aboard.
Owing to the shortage of funds in the
Navy. the department has stipulated
that reserve officers who elect to take
these training cruises must pay their
travelling expenses to and from New
port. This, 1t was pointed out by re-
serve officers. is hardship which the
Navy Department has imposed. Under
the law. reserve officers. when called to
active duty for training, are entitled
to all of the pay and allowances OF
their corresponding grades in the Regu-
lar Navy. They are entitled to mileage
for all land travel, and while the de-
partment has authorized officers to take
the cruise, 1t has pointed out that it

officers taking the cruises. Officers and
enlisted men Of the reserve are required
tc put in a certain number OF days
each year in training cruises.
While a number OF officers are de-
sirous Of taking these cruises to main
tain their naval efficiency. 1t was
pointed out here that the department. s
order precludes many of them from
complying with the law because OF the
travel expense involved.
The subchaser 2l0. training ship OF
the local reserves, returned Monday
night from a three-day cruise down the
Potomac river, during which stops were
made at Colonial Beach and Piney Point,
where shore liberty was given the men:
When the vessel reached Colonial
Beach on the return trip it took aboard
several women who were suffering
from heat prostration, and rushed them
to Washington.
The local reservists are anxiously
awaiting the notice from the Navy De-
partment Of the assignment here of an
eagle boat. The bureau Of operations
has the request of the local reservists
under consideration, and 1t is expected
that a decision will be reached during
the week on the request.

Ants Provided With "Feeiers," Which
Are to Them Of the Highest
Importance. 4

All insects and q certain number sf
other animals are provided with ap-
pendages which the ordinary man calls
feelers.
These feelers provide their owners
with a mysterious sixth sense which
we ourselves lack-a sense which is
certainly not sight. hearing, or smell.
though possibly it may be very slight
sense OF touch.
1t is by stroking with their feelers
that ants discriminate between friend
and foe. You may paint an ant blue
or cover him with a strange smelling
compound, but his fellows will never
make a mistake.
The lobster, the prawn, and the
shrimp use their feelers to guide them
when they are swimming tail first top
speed. Bees and butterflies seem to
use them for examining flowers be-
fore they begin to sip the honey.
The whiskers Of the cat and the rat
are stiff hairs to the roots OF which
are attached very sensitive nerves. 1t
is supposed that they act as guides
when their owner is MOVING In the
dark. If they touch an obstacle. an
instantaneous message to the brain
enables the cat or rat to make QUICK
movement to one side or the other. !

making coke in the ground" in Fay
cite County, Pennsylvania.
That was the crude beginning of one
of Americas key industries, for from
these bee hive ovens, wasteful as they
were, grew the great modern plants
that as:onished the world during the
war by their production of poison
gases, high explosives, fertilizers and
other vital necessities. In times OF
peace these plants produce dyes and
great quantities of intermediates for
the manufacture of other commodities.
In times of war they are easily con-
verted into strongholds of defense.
You will remember that it was an
English boy who discovered the possi-
hility of manufacturing dyes from coal
tar but England let the great chance
slip through her fingers and as result
she found herself in a bad way when
war broke out in 1914. 1t was humili-
ating for the United States to be
caught mapping and to be compelled to
beg Germany to sell US dyes to color
our stamps and currency but England
found herself in far more serious
situation. She had no dyes for her
uniforms or flags, and no drugs for
her wounded. She could not sell to-
the former German markets because
she could not color her textiles, She
could not send sufficient high explo-
sives or gasses to the front because
she lacked the essential coal tar crude.
But England will not be caught
asleep again. She has placed An en-
barge on foreign dyes and is working
with all her strength to develop her
own chemical industry.

In l77l, there lived in the forest near
Saarbrucken, in Germany, a chemist
named Stauf. He was an eccentric old
man who had an idea, far ahead of his
times, that many things beside coke
could be obtained in the combustion OF
bituminous coal.
otauf had constructed a number OF
ovens over burning mine and treated
coal so that he obtained oil, pitch, coke
and SCOT. That was quite a forward
step and although he lived in the
depths of a forest the great minds OF
Europe heard of his work. In fact,
Goethe, himself made pilgrimage to
the ovens of the far-seeing chemist
and in his autobiography wrote strik-
ing comment on his visit to the Saar-
brucken forest:
Ready and glad to pour his COM
plants into human ear, the lean
decrepit, little man, with a shoe or
one foot and slipper on the other
and with stockings hanging down and
repeatedly pulled up i'll vain, dragged
himself up the mountain to where
the pitch house stood which he hac
built himself and saw with grief now
falling into ruins. Here was found Z
connected row of ovens in which Goa
was to be freed from sulphur ane
made fit for use in the iron works
but at the same time they wished also
to recover the oil and pitch, and in
deed, did not want to lose the laml
black, so that all failed together OF
account of the many ends in view"
Goethe. who dubbed the chemist o
Saarbrucken "Kohenphilosoph" or tn
Philosopher of Coal, wrote his com
mentary less than century and hal
ago. What would be his comment to
day could he enter one Of the grea

CURRENT COMMENT
ENGLISH IN THE SCHOOLS

The remarks made yesterday in
Rutland by the state commission
or of education that in at least one
Vermont public school instruction
is given in the morning in French
and in the afternoonin English will
no doubt cause considerable sur
prise. But the truth is while we
have been considering ourselves as
ore Of the last strongholds of the
old English stock, there has been
a steady infiltration of French Ca
madam families from across the
border in Quebec.
These are good sturdy people
but we must make certain that
they do not wholly change the
the countryside environment. We
want to change the new corners in
to Americans and not permit them
to change a part of our state into
q New Quebec. While we welcome
them we must also insist that they
adapt themelves to American
ways and ideals.
We ought not to have dual-lang-
uage schools in Vermont. We
know that this has been a great
source of friction and trouble in
Quebec and we ought to take the
steps that will prevent it from be-
coming the cause of dissension in
our state. Let Englh be the lang
uage of our public schools and in
those sections where the condi-
