STORMS DELAY

UNTIL APRIL Is
Six Bodies Still Aboard
Submarine; Hope to

task of raising the submarine sd
which lies in 100 feet of water off
Prcvincetown, Mass, will not be &C
compliShed before April Is, the Navy
Department announced today.
Salvage work done by divers is
now IS per cent complete. Water
has been forced from all compart-
mentS except the battery room, bad
ly damaged in the collision with
the Paulding, but pontoons and
chains are yet to be lowered and
attached.
Weather Delays Salvage
Frequent stormy weather has
greatly delayed the salvage fleet of
seven vessels on duty at the scene
under Capt. E. j. King. The latter
supervised the raising of the S-5l
several years ago.
The work has been facilitated by
a new telephone arrangement by
which divers can converse with one
another, through switchboard on
the S. S. FALCON. Formerly they
could communicate only with the
surface.
BY invention of a special heater,
navy experts have ended the prob
lem formerly caused by stoppage of
the divers air lines when air con-
densed into moisture and froze in
the hose on cold days.
Six Bodies Still in Sub
All bodies have been removed
from the Sunken submarine except
those of the six men who lived for
three days, trapped in the torpedo
room. This compartment will not
be opened until the Sd is raised
and towed to Boston Nay Yard, a.
officials hope they will find fare.

Why is there no fool like an old

he falls.

said mote" 1t is bad enough to
say that no man over thirty can fall
in love, but to add that he cannot
become devoted to a woman is to
salt the wound to human capacity.
More is known about what man
can do than about what he can't
In fact, to put an arbitrary limit on
mans capacity is to disclose the
limits of ones understanding of
human nature. An ordinary man of
thirty can grow no taller; the pitui-
tary gland normally sets limits on
increase in stature after twenty-five.
The exceptional man can grow taller
after he is thirty; his pituitary has
not yet limited his growth.
Normally, and speaking biologic-
ally, man can fall in live till they
are fifty or sixty, few till they are
sixty or seventy, but some reach sex
senility before they turn thirty.
There is no arbitrary or fixed limit
to the functioning of the love i'm
pulSe-certainly no arbitrary limit
at thirty years of age.
The depth of a mans love for a
woman could we'll be believed to be
greater at forty than at thirty, or at
fifty than at twenty. The usual
flare-upS of youth have been we'll
styled puppy 1ove"-playful, fleet
ing, hesitating, ephemeral, and too
often deaf, dumb and blind.
Even savageS recognize the fact,
and some do not consider a man fit
for enduring love and whole hearted
devotion until he is thirty years of
age. They think, and not without
reason, that love cannot ripen until
the man has matured.
