British Sailors Turn From
 Old Raw Leaf to Cigarettes


 LONDON, Dec. IS. (R-British sailors are turning from old raw leaf tobacco, soaked in rum and rolled up in tWince, ito the cigarette.
 When the Prince of Wales made his recent voyage on the Repulse, 1,300,- 900 cigarettes were sold, according to D. Kennedy, manager of the can- teen. There were but 15O pipe smo- kers among the 1,2OO men in the ships company.
 Sailors follow one another very closely in their choice of smokes" he said. "But the fashion changes mysteriously from time to time. On this voyage of the, Repulse those who did not roll their own cigar ettes concentrated on two of the three very popular brands, quite ig- noring the third. There was a run on well-known high class cigar cite as soon as the men got shore leave"

Tall Buildings Safer Than
 Low During Earthquakes

 STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Calif Dec. IS. lP-Tall steel buildings are safer than structures of 100 feet in height during earthquakes. in the opinion of Dr. Bailey Willis, profes- sor emeritus of Geology at Stanford and seismologist.
 This view, contrary to the general conception of the layman, is SUD- ported by Dr. Willis on the theory that the period of swing in build ing of more than 200 feet does not conincide with the earthquakes period of swing, and, hence the inertia of the building mass stops jerking when the theoretical pendulums pass.
 A building 100 feet high swings with the earthquake and this receives the maximum jerk when the subter- renean pendulum changes it's swing, he said.
 There is almost no danger in the ordinary light dwelling house unless thechimney comes through the roof, 2 Dr. Willis continued "The most dan gerous place is on the outer edge of the sidewalk and the adjoining part of the street, where store fronts and heavy cronices will strike"
 The safest places are in doorways and against walls, he said.

will be compelled to accept defeat
We believe we are speaking the truth
today when we say that anyone who
sits back, satisfied or semi-satisfied
With past performance, will find 9TH
ers pushing ahead and roaping the
rich rewards.
There is nothing certain, nothing
sure. Every indication points to the
fact that the biggest gifts will be
won in the ballot box this week. Do
! you understand what We mean? 1t
is just this-leaders and runners-up
go out of the third period and into
the final period with credits so close

is the way to win.
