BAD HABITS SEEMINGLY SET
Famous Raider, Moewe, Though Now
Engaged in Peaceful Trading, Con-
tinues Career of Damage.

Although she has been rechristened
and is now devoted to peaceful pur-
suits, the old MOewe, once notorious as
q German raider, cannot reform her
bad habits. She rammed and sank
the Formby lightsh:p Planet, near the
Mersey bar.
The MOewe is now the Green Brier.
She was outward bound from the
Mersey to Teneriffe and was proceed
ing along the main channel when
something went wrong with her steer
ing gear and she smashed into tie
Planet, one of the three lightships
stationed near the mouth of the Mer-
sey and familiar to American and all
other navigators.
Although the Green Brier's captain
kept his steamers head in the light
ships breach, a food of water poured
into the Planet and she soon sank.
Her crew of six narrowly escaped.
The Green Briefs bows were so dam
aged she returned for repairs.
The Green Brier, under the name
of Moewe and commanded by Capt.
Count Nicholas Won Donna ScholO-
diem, for a long time terrorized pas
senger and cargo-carrying vessels in
the Atlantic and as a result of her
operations British and allied shipping
suffered extensively. The Moewe
proved most elusive and defied all
efforts at capture during q long career.
Her original name was Punga. She

ing its place as an important accessory
to surgical work, is the view of DIR.
Robert E. Farr of Minneapolis. Doctor
Farr corrected a statement from Mil
waukee, where he recently spoke at a
medicals convention, in which he was
quoted as saying music is a part sub
stitute for anesthesia.
What said was that, where major
operations are performed with the aid
of a local anesthetic rather than by
the older method of etheriZing, the pa
tient remains conscious and alert, and
gently played photograph music has
u decided value, both in calming the
patient and in supplying pIeasurable
sounds as an offset to the realization
that he is being operated on" Doctor
Farr said.

HAVE OWN DOMESTIC COURT
English Married Pair Air What They
Feel to Be Grievances at Home
Twice Year.

The suggestion that there should be
a "grumblers' day" a day on which
everyone should air their grievances
and then forget them for the rest Of
the year is not the novelty some peo-
pie seem to think Two years ago,
writes a correspondent, a young mar
ried couple anticipated the suggestion
by establishing haIf-yearly complaints
courts.
On the selected day, both husband
and wife told each other frankly of
the faults found in the previous six
months. Usually the husband goes
into the dock first, while the wife
submits her indictment If he has
been unduly forgetful, if he has shown
a tendency to prefer his club to his
wife and home, if he seems selfish or
untidy or keeps too tight a hand upon
the purse strings, the charges are put
before him and are argued out. When
he is convinced, or has shown the
charge is due to a misunderstanding,
the subject drops. Then the wife has
to undergo her crOss-eXaminatiOn.
The practice, it is said, has prevent
ed many little faults and grievances
from becoming chronic and leading to
serious trouble.-Mancheste Guard

statement by a cooperating labor
committee. The committee. 1t was
stated, was designed to "tie in the

"Save for the fact that it stands
for a new and better order" the
statement said, "activated by social
values rather than by pecuniary
ones, Brookwood is not a propa-
gandist institution.
1T earnestly and fearlessly seeks
the truth, free from dogma and
doctrinal teachings. 1t believes
that the labor and farmer move
ment constitute the most vital con-
crete force working for human
freedom and that by exerting a
wise social control, they can bring
in a new era of justice and human
brotherhood. Brookwood seeks to
provide working men and women
with an education which best fits
them for such service"
The college Will train economists
statisticians, journalists. writers
and teachers. as well as organizers,
workers and speakers for the labor
and farmer movements 1t will be

In the history course considera-

rather than to the political and
militaristie activities of the ruling
classes. There will be course in
labor, music, art and letters also
will receive attention.
