THE WORLD WAR 20 YEARS
AGO TODAY

July 20, p, 1915-German subma-
rine warfare was the principal topic
of conversation in the United States,
for the narrow escape of the unarmed,
west-bound Orduna from the same
fate as the Lusitania had famed high
against the flames of controversy.
And on the goth, President Wilson dis
patched a third note on submarine
warfare to Germany. He rejected
Berlin's elaborate proposals for safe
guards for American ships as very
unsatisfactory" and boldly asserted
that another act like the sinking Of
the Lusitania would be regarded by
the United States as deliberately I'M
friendly"
He stated the case of the U. S. pre-
cisely: "If a belligerent can not reta-
late against an enemy without in
juping the lives of neutrals as we'll as
their property, humanity, as we'll as
justice, and a due regard for the dig
nifty of neutral Powers, should dictate
that the practice be discontinued.
The note of finality in the commun-
ication gave the world the idea that
this was the last word. Prepared
ness advocates were spurred to new
activity.

TODAY'S YESTERDAYS

July 20, 1304-Francesco Petrarch
was born in Arezzo, Italy, destined to
be made immortal by poems inspired
by his unrequitted passion for Laura,
who had been the wife of Hugo de
Sade for two years when Petrarch
first met her. She died, exemplary
mother of II children, 21 years later,
Petrarch in his grief exiled himself
from the town in which she lived, and
made psychological discovery:
Behold who ever wept and in his tears
Was happier far than others in their
smiles.
July 20, 1577-The Christian Cos
pei was first preached in America, at
Newfoundland, on this date. it is re-
corded in Richard Hakluyt's classic
Divers Voyages Touching the Discov-
cry of America.
The worshippers were men from
among the fleets of 100 Spanish, so
lish fishing vessels at the Grand
Banks.
July 20, 1847--The first electric loco
motive in the U S. was demonstrated
80 years before Edison's electric light
and 35 years before the electric street
car. Moses Gerrish Farmer, 27-year-
old Boscawen, N. H, school-teacher,
was the builder. He used batteries
for populown. Persons in Dover, N.
H. were the first to be transported
with it. Because of lack of interest
and shortage of funds Farmers in
ventions went further and in the
eighties he was a more famous cleo
trical experimenter than Edison.

INDIAN SUMMER
MOBSTER STYLE
Another man :


He is growing old now. He has been
mixed up with the fringes of the un-
derworld all his life. He is surprised
to discover that all his dark and dan
gerous enterprises haven't earned him
competence-yet.
He cannot understand why the
gang with which he has been asso-
ciated all his life now lacks p1 estige.
He can't evenl frighten people any
more. Take the case of the upstart
young ship-news reporter the other
night, who didn't want to pay his
check. He had had him thrown out,
of course. and intimated darker ven-
geances. but the heel had laughed at
him! How could he know that the
bows weren't as willing, nowadays, to
take people for a rdie with profits
slim and the ever rpresent G-Men
bogev in the background? Did eve1y-
body know that?
Why, all the chances he has taken!
Running night clubs, snarling with
the law, hijacking, risking 20 years
in Sing Sing. Now to have to budget
himself and see inevitable bankruptcy
anssd! as is deeply woAied. Perhaps he
may have to go into some honest bus
mess at the last in order to eat. The
prospect is humilitating.

OTHERS VIEWS
THE LAST STRAW.

To the Editor
Wednesday a NHyr0 went into the
liquor store and bought a pint. On
coming out, he started down the
street toward First National Bank
and spied a policeman coming meet
ing him. The darky fun1Dled at his
shirt front trying to conceal his pur-
chase, but his fingers suddenly turn
ed to thumbs. AS the cop continued
to advance on him, leisurely swing
ing his billy, that was too much for
the colored citizen. He threw his prize
to the pavement and bolted across
the street Did the officer chase him?
No, only laughed, and stopped to
watch him, then proceeded to the wet
spot, and while he picked fragments
of broken glass, passing people hesi-
tated long enough to sniff the rising
fumes of Hiram Walkers "Ten High"
Moral: Truth is stronger than fic-
ton" and conscience is stronger than

Gus years:
It was indicated by this State Off
cial that all the hubbub and hullabaloo
raised over the State during the past
week over the question of teachers
salaries has been somewhat prema-
ture and that the entire problem
would have been worked out by the
School Commission and the State
Board of Education in due course of
time, despite the fact that on the
basis of the present tentative allot-
ment of school funds, approximately
$250OOO more is needed to grant 70
per cent salary increase to all teach
ers, new as we'll as experienced. But
by setting up a different salary Sche-
dule for teachers with no previous ex-
perience who will start teaching for
the first time this fall and perhaps by
making slight reductions or adjust
ments in the increments that have
been allowed for experience and for
better certification, it will be pos
sible, it is believed to give salary
increase of 20 per cent to every teach
er who taught in the schools last year,
hue and cry about the teachers sal
ary increase could only have had
little patience and waited until the
school commission and the State
Board of Education had completed
working out the salary schedule for
next year, instead of beginning their
criticism while it was still in process
of being worked out, they would have
found nothing to criticize" this State
official said. "For we knew four
weeks ago or more that the amount
appropriated would not provide a 20
per cent increase for every teacher,
beginners as we'll as experienced ii the
same schedules for automatic ncreas-
es for length of experience and for
training should be maintained. But
these two agencies have full power to
change these other schedules and TO
make adjustments which ndlcate that
it will be possible to insure salafy

WRITING WRONGS

You're guessing wrong if you be-
lieve-
That the distance between Earth
and Moon remains constant.
It doesn't. The attraction between
the two, with the moon steadily pull
ing upward on that section of Earth
facing it, brings Earth nearer and
causes variation in distance between
the two as much as SO feet. This
was determined from discrepancies in
astronomically checked time signals
between Europe and America. The
stretching increases the distance be-
tween certain points on Earth's sur
face, too!
If you want something to worry
about, this will eventual bring the
moon crashing down on Earth.
