The thermometer is clever little

Inside the bulb is mercury. When

In the following January the YES

LONDON is NOW
A SADDENED PLACE
City Goes 20 Bed at n; Influence OF
Defense OF Realm Act
Continues.

London, Dec. 31.--This one time
metropolis OF the world has forgotten
how to be gay; 1t has lost its capaci-
ty for enjoyment. Midnight revels
and supper parties are things of the
past.
Restaurants and railroads report
an extraordinary slump in patronage
and declare London has been demon
allied, hypnotized and broken-spir-
tied by wartime restrictions. The
iity now deliberately chooses to go
o bed at eleven.
go the night life of Lon
don--its suppers, entertainments and
dances--was one of the principal fea-
lures. From eleven at might to four
in the morning was the gayest period
OF the day. People came from afar
for the pleasure of few nights in the
city.
And then, Just six years ago, came
the heavy hand of what was known
as Dora" otherwise the Defense Of
the Realm act. II was made Illegal
to obtain drink after nine-thirty.
Dancing was practically ruled out en-
tirely after dark. Even restaurants
had to shut at ten-thirty. Zeppelins
and economy killed London's gay
evenings.
Two months ago. after three years
OF peace, the restrictions were lifted.
1t is now possible tc get drink in
London until twelve-thirty and even
up to four in the morning in places
specially favored. Shampagne can
now be drunk openly instead of out
of cups. and it is no longer necessary
to carry a pocket flask Of whisky. 1t
seemed as tho nothing stood in the
way of Londoners revsrting TO their
former habits.
Al any rate. the restaurants. thea
ers and dancing places thought So
They laid all their plans for an orgy
of enjoyment and expected big
boom. The "tubes" the subways of
London. agreed with. them, and in
stead of stopping their service at
midnight, ran trains until one-thirty
They had visions of a heavy post
midnight traffic.
All were wrong alike. Londoners
had forgotten that there were such
things as suppers after the theaters.
They could not realize that late trains
were permitted or that it was really
legal to dance after midnight. The
early-to-bed habit had grown too
strong.
Regretfully the tubes have had to
admit the fact. They have even
counted the passengers leaving Pic
cadilly Circus-the heart of London
-on four trains leaving in various
direction at 1850 a, m. On one there
were twenty-five people, on another
thirty-four, on the third thirteen and
the fourth eleven. SAnd each of these
trains is scheduled to carry 500 peo-
pie. No wonder that transportation
authorities are debating whether late
traffic is worth while.
1t may be that under crushing tax
alton everyone is hard up. Perhaps
war horrors and bureaucratic re-
strictions have knocked the gayety
out of London's heart. Whatever the
cause, London is now sadder place
than many second-rate provincial

To all Religious, Fraternal, Civic
and Labor organizations of the
City of Everett and vicinity:
You are cordially invited to be-
come a part of the Anti-War league
by sending a delegate to a meeting
which will be held at the Public
Library, Friday, October goth.
The purpose of the league is to
avert another world war if possible,
and particularly to see that the
United States does not enter into
another conflict without a distinct
understanding Of the purpose for
which our boys will be asked to
make the supreme sacrifice.
Wars are usually fought and then
settled around a table. We be-
lieve that with the proper under
standing, the sacrifice of human
lives could be averted by a settle
ment across the table before the
conflict begins.
This is not a political league, but
one for humanity.
Kindly give this notice your care
full consideration and send a dele
gate to our next meeting.

COAL ASH ON SOIL

"Will coal ashes injure the soil
for vegetable growing?" asks a
Seattle suburbanite. Prof. f. j.
Sievers of the soils department of
the State College of Washington re-
plies that coal ashes have no fertiliz-
ing value.
"Ther only effect on the soils is a
physical one" he says. "They may
be beneficial in making very COM
pact, heavy. clayey soil more friable.
Since a loose. mellow soil is very
essential for the growing of veget-
ables, it may be advisable to apply
coal ashes to the land at about the
rate of two or three tons to the acre
on soils that are inclined to be
lumpy. When applied to sandy or
sandy loan soils, coal ashes have
only an injurious effects, and the
practice is not recommended"
