Namlna Rotten Row.

Rotten Row" is an ugly name, but
1t is that given to London's most fash
ionable driveway. The curious part
of 1t is that this homely appellation,
misplaced as 1t obviously is, was born
of one of the most beautiful phrases
in the French language.
When the Normans populated Eng
land after the invasion of 1906, they
gave French names to many locations
and places. So they named the drive
way through London parks Route de
Roi" (Route of the King), because it
led TO the royal palace. The London
er found 1t difficult to pronounce this
phrase, and Route de Roi" degenerat-
ed into Rotten Row"
Rotten Row is one of London's show
places 1t leads to Buckingham pal
ace from Hyde Park corner. 1t is the
center of interest from special stand
point, as 1t is the favorlte drive of
fashion. On Sundays the church
throng is brilliant spectacle.

My Dear Mother:
So this is Tokyo-the place of vol
canoes earth quakes, famine and
death-but everyone on this old ship
is we'll and happy, especially myself.
We came up here with load of soy
beans, rice, dried fish, eggs, beef and
potatoes for the starving Japs and
Americans also large shipment of
cocoa mating to build houses out of.
We stopped at Yokahoma first but
as we couldn't get into the harbor on
account of the wreckage, we came on
up here and started unloading today
There is no liberty for us here be-
cause the place is under martial law
and anyway there is no place for
pleasure now.
/ went over today in working
party to clear the ruins in the Amer
ican Hospital, and tho saw every.
thing there was to see, Il saw no hos
pital, only the place where it stood
All the people were killed or burned

aboard and not expec ted to live.

some when they are finished The
street car tracks are all torn up and
twisted and the cars burnt right
where they stood You can hardly
walk for the entanglements of wires
and burnt automobiles, rickashas and
bicycles. l saw pile after pile of dead
bodies burning This ship is furnish
ing kerosene and oil with which to
burn them. A fellow told us they
burned sixty thousand yesterday,
twenty thousand the day before and
ten thousand today and that they es-
innate eight hundred thousand deaths
altogether.
There are only two buildings of any
size left standing now, Every time
the tide changes a flock of dead Japs
and Chinks come floating by and
when the wind blows this way we
sure get a wonderful odor of cooked
garlic and rice The earthquake only
lasted three minutes but guess that
was enough according to the damage
done

sador escaped. We are sending tents

with battleships of all nations and
the whole Japanese feet is here, but
we were the first ship to get in here
with supplies for the refugees. When
we leave here we are either going
to Shanghai, Chefu or Tsingtao for
another load, but we will not start
for few days yet All the Chinese
in Shanghai and all over are tickled
to death because there are so manv
Japs killed.
Well, mother, suppose that you
have your new home fixed fine and

say goodnight and turn in.s

during the winter months it is dan

of freezing the battery increases
The sulphuric acid component of the
electrolyte in fully charged bat
terry, will keep the water component
from freezing except at very low
temperature.
But let the battery run down, and

frozen, n battery is seldom worth the

The obvious thing to do is to
