time of Charles II, according to both
Mr.. Vroom and all histories of the
English theater had the reputation
of being haunted. The supposed
scene of the haunt was a long, wind
ing passage which ran from the back
of the theater in a meandering fash
ion all the way to the front. Local
theater attaches would have no part
of it, blanching at the mere suggeS-
ton of a trip through it to meet the
reputed ghosts.
New acting company members,
however, were disposed to pooh pooh
the whole thing. The one which
eventually included Miss Robson

lay the ghost once and for all.
The method chosen was that each
should walk the passage alone, each

rpedo Boat Rams Enemy, Limps Home
Tiny Mosquitoes Comb Channel
 For Enemy Ships
BY PAUL MANNING

AAAAN@~@N&@"N (NEAs Service Stan CorrespOndentl
 London; Sept. ;6.--Its exhaust roaring Motor Torpedo Boat 10 sliced its way across the heavy waters of the English Channel at 2 o'clock one morning last week.
 On the tiny bridge inside the metal cabin 23-year-old Lieut.. James Terry Mannoch peered through the narrow windows into the darkness ahead, proud of his crew of youngsters, his torpedoes, depth charges, Lewis guns and shin ing boat. ?.
 Sitting almost on top of the steersn1an, he shouted his orders through a small megaphone. Deli- cately the helmsman twisted the car-Sized wheel to take the waves easier.
 Down, in the engine room three engines deafened the eardrums, made speech impossible.
 Suddenly two German boats loomed out of the darkness, racing abreast toward some coast objective. Too close to release torpedo, Lieu tenant Mannoch shouted an order, his helmSman sweryed the small craft into the trough between the two enemy ships, and with Lewis guns blazed, plowed into the side of one of tEe German boats. But the enemy ship, wrenching away, raced oil into the night.
 Motor Torpedo Boat 10, its front stove in, lirnped slowly back to the naval base.
 This adventure, multiplied many times during the course of a night by other M. T. boats, shows the dash which these young veterans of the British mosquito fleet are enl- ploying in their daily sweep of the mine-dokted channel.
 But colorful though the hotillas may be, motor torpedo boats dur ing the past months of war have proved themselves to be a vastly overrated sea weapon.
 Prior to the outbreak of war in September, 1899, fabulous claims were made in their behalf. And be- cause a fiotilla could be built for the price of one destroyer, many predicted that more torpedo boats and fewer big ships would be built.
 Italy, pointing to a sea victory of the last war when an Italian M. T. B. sped into the Adriatic harbor of Pola and sank an Australian battle cruiser, constructed more than a hundred of the boats.
 Britain in 1927 also started to build the fiashy little speedboats. But, unlike Italy, England did not forget that it is the great numbering dreadnaught which wins the deci- sive sea battles.
 IT. their role of patrolling the sea lanHs of the channel against U-boats and small German E-boats, the motor torpedo boat is excellent. But in the open seas they cannot stand continuous use. Like light whippet tanks, they will not stand up under hard wartime use with out constant and skilled attention. They must be frequently hauled up on the shipways for repainting and conditioning if they are to last.
 And with the Battle for Britain now under way, that is an operation which is only occasionally possible.

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Sunshine, bright sunshine! It
can do ever so much to keep people
= healthy. Too much of it at one
time may burn the skin, but most
persons do not have enough.
Certain short rays in sunshine are
known as ultraviolet rays" When
they shine on a human being, they
help his skin to make a certain
amount OF vitamin D. In old days
OF outdor life, many persons were
able to obtain enough vitamin D
through sunshine.
If people do not have enough vita
min D they suffer from bone dis
ease known as "rickets." Most VIC
TINS Of this trouble have been babies
and often they have carried the re-
suits through hfe-bow-legs, knock
knees, weak limbs and so on.
The Importance of sunshine has
been brought out in records of Eu-
ropes health. In general, the people
of the northern half Of Europe have
suffered more than those in the
southern half. This has been due
to the fact that Northern Europe
has less sunshine.
The growth of cities has done
much to block out sunshine. This
comes about not only from tall
buildings, but also from smoke
which hangs over cities with thou
sands Of chimneys. Smoke from
soft coal can be an enemy of
health.
