CONS Business College, Wilmington,
Del. This speaker emphasized the
matter of good citizenship, and gave
some mighty good advice along that
line to the present generation.
L. J. Duncan and Kenneth Wilker-
son, two members of the class, have
been guests of the Rotary Club for
some weeks past, and they were Civ
en- an opportunity to show what their
reaction to Rotarianism might be.
They gave a very good account of
themselves. On the whole, they were
commendatory in their remarks, but,
at the same time, had some whole
some criticism to make. Chief of
these was the fact that not enough
effort had been made to secure re-
creational opportunity for the young
people of the community. However,
they expressed themselves as greatly
benefited by their association with
the Rotarians, and also as sincerely
appreciative.

stick around and in time you've got
something that's pretty strong.
There's another thing about news
paper advertising in particular that
makes it appeal to me as the out
standing best advertising buy-and
that's this: people remember most of
all what they see-we are an eye
minded race. Of course, you can't
expect to expose an idea all in a
flash and expect everybody to grab
the idea and run for the product.
That's why you've got to stick to
your advertising program and why,
once more, we've o. KID a schedule"
This should mean something to
those who hesitate to advertise, be-
cause profitable results are not forth
coming Immediately. The Demo
crat" is a good advertising medium.

GREAT BRITAIN
GIVES EVIDENCE
OF SEA POWER
Avenges The Sinking Of The
"HoOd" By Manifestation Of
Great Mastery Of Sea
GIANT SHIP, BISMARCK
HUNTED DOWN AND SUNK

Public interest in the European War
settled, the past week, upon the de-
struction of the British battleship,
Hood. by the German battleship, Bis
mark: these two vessels being the
largest of their kind in the world.
The British called the shot which
blew the Hood to pieces, chance, or
unlucky, one. Whatever it was, it
fired the British navy with the ere
member-the-M Maine" spirit. The Eng
lish sea force set out to chase the
Bismark to her death, and succeeded
in sending her to the bottom.
On Saturday morning, May "a, the
Hood sailed forth to give battle to
the Bismark. Not much time elapsed
before the British boat received a
shot which landed in her magazine.
One tremendous blast, and the Hood
went down with all on board.
Three days later, the British fleet
took dire vengeance on the Hoods
destroyer. The Bismarck was smash
ed and sunk by British warships and
aerial bombers on the fifth morning
of as solidly implacable chase as
sea warfare ever has known.
From the Norwegian port of Ber-
gen-where American-built Hudson
warplanes had attacked her before
ever she left that harbor-she had
been pursued and harried for 1850
miles by vast concentration Of Roy
al Navy units afloat and in the skies
until at last, crippled and whirling
crafty, trapped and already mortal
" hit, she was sent to the bottom 400
miles west of German-occupied Brest,
France.
Thus was avenged, in such fur
ious display of British naval might
as has not been seen before in this
war, the one great victim of the Bis
marck's short career, the 42,100-ton
British battle cruiser, Hoodu the
worlds largest man-o'-war.
It was at 11.01 A. M. (5.01 A. M,
E. D. To- that she sank at last in the
chill waters so close to the refuge
which she had sought to reach-the
harbor of Brest-and the last of the
long series of blows that sent her
under came from the torpedoes of the
circling warships.
She carried 1900 men and the Ad-
miral Guenther Luetjens, and her
loss was the gravest suffered at sea
by Germany since the war began.
After the destruction of the Hood,
German naval experts were quoted
as saying that the fate of that big
ship indicated the loss of the war by
England. Their judgments must have
been somewhat reversed after their
more powerful and newer war craft
was sent to Davy Jones' locker.
The war, tho, is not over for eth
er contestant, and there is much evil
dence supporting the opinion that
convoy ships furnished by the United
States will bring the conflict to the
Western Hemisphere. President
Roosevelt, in his speech Tuesday
night, advised the country to get pre-
pared for any emergency, and stated
that defense forces had already been
placed at vital points Of attack.
Everyone is praying that America
may be spared the horrors Of war.
