battery of nine 16-inch guns, the

the Navy. Oficials add simply that
she has the latest type anti-aircraft

The Indiana guests held a lunch

The battleship launched today is
the third naval craft to bear the

launched in 1895. and taken out of
commission in 1919. Her hull was
used as a target for naval gunnery
practice the following year. The
second was a battleship of $4,000
tons displacement, but it never
reached water. 1t was scrapped
under terms of the Washington
treaty and sold in 1924, 34.7 per cent

Sinking Survivor Tells

This is the first time the presence

a submarine has been reported, and,
if my informants conjecture is cor

their newer and inexperienced
U-boat commanders that they had
in their original officers. 90
Naval experts have said the
U-boat commanders now putting 20

established as the capital, the vii
lage soon expanded to town and
then to a city. Industries sprang
up, and Gondar became a bustling
market and trading center.
The city reached the height of
its prosperity about SIX years before
the signing of the American Declar-
alton of Independence. It's pop
ulation then was some 10000. Civil
wars and destructive raids in the
eighteenth century, however. led
to its decline in prestige. Ruins of
sacked castles and palaces of for
mer rulers still remain as symbols
Of Gondar's former Importance.
In 1885, the former capitals pop
ulation had shrunk to about 5000
inhabitants In 1898, after three
years of Italian occupation, it again
was a busy city with upward OF
10000. It's industries included the
manufacture Of cotton cloth, sad
dies, shoes, copper ware, gold and
silver ornaments, and fancy articles
of ivory and bone.

AMBITION HELD
GATE TO GRAVE

The world would be better off II
man had the habit Of lying in bed
one morning each week
That's the comforting concept Of a
noted physician who told the Ameri-
/ can Medical association that ambition
is shortening the business tycoon's life
span.
Ambition and "the strenuous life"
are Just as hazardous to the executives
health as his obesity and excessive use
Of tobacco and alcohol, declared DR..
Edgar v. Allen, chief of the medicine
division at Mayo clinic.
He proposed a five-day week, eight
hour day program for business men.
1.-THE business man fails to take the
long view of hfe." Dr. Allen asserted.
"He plans his life, aside from his an
nuities and insurance, as If he we're
to live forever. So he works hard to
accumulate funds with which to play
tomorrow.
"All too frequently he lies mumbling
and muttering in a hospital bed, pant
ing his life away as result Of high
blood pressure and hardening Of the
arteries, or he stumbles and falls from
apoplexy, or after a shudderingly Sc
we're episode of cardiac pain he is hur-
ried off into the sleep from which
there is no awakening.
Gould man see how small, how in
significant, how unimportant his indi-
vidual life Is, he might shape it so
that he would achieve more Of hap
piness and content and less of material
success and perhaps Ill health"
For the business mans longevity, the I,
physician prescribed: digging a dahlia |
bed, or any other hobby that affords |
golf for recreation, not for
low score; occasional fasting, elimina
ton Of fats from the diet, moderation |
in drinking and smoking; more fish
ing and hunting for diversion.
