A\nmarine authority of unquestioned\nstanding, who Is close to British shipping interests, said today when nsked\nus to the effectiveness of arming\nships: -^I'JJUJ!\n\"We have found thnt light guns, dls\ncharging projectiles of four to six\npounds, In hands of trained gunners\nhave been by far the most effective\nweapon, I know personally that as\nmany as two and three submarines\nhave been bagged In one day In this\nway,\n\"A submarine commander, looking\nthrough a periscope, hns a range of\nvision of about three miles, but he must\nget his target broadside on to have a\nreasonable chance of making a torpedo\nhit what it Is aimed for and as torpedoes are very expensive missiles, he\ncannot afford to take many chances on\na miss.\nHit Anywhere Spells Doom.\n\"A periscope above the water at a\ndistance of 200 to 300 yards makes\na fair mark for n gunner working from\nthe deck of a ship 30 or 40 feet above\ntho surface of the sea. One shot hitting tho mark is all that Is needed, ns\nthe submarines aro of light construction\nand easily penetrated, and a hole anywhere in thoir shell spells their doom.\n\"It is seldom that a torpedo Is fired\nwhen a threatened ship can so maneuver as to show only her stern for a\nmark, nnd in most enses of this nature so far reported the submarines\nhavo come to the surface and resorted\nto gunfire from a deck gun. In this\nkind of a fight a gun mounted on a\nsteamship has a groat advantage for\nthe platform offered by a submarine\nis an unsteady thing to fire from, and\ndespite tlio smaller target offered, the\ngunners on ships have the better of it.\n\"Careful observations mado during\ntho past your of steamers mounting\ndefense guns show thnt thoy aro In a\nmeasure Immune from attack unless It\nis without warning, as in the case of\nthe California. The number of submarines that tho Germans havo lost have\nmade them chary about showing themselves within range of ships on which\nthey see guns, or which they havo\nlearned are defensively armed.\n\"Other methods of catching submarines, such as nets, bombs and devices\nthat aro admiralty secrets are still\nbeing used, but. the deck gun on\nsteamers in tho hands of good marksmen !s loading all others in results.\"\nNEW YORK PRESS DECLARES\nTHAT WAR IS INEVITABLE\nELEVEN INJURED\nWHEN CAR8 COLLIDE\n(Hy bully NoWh I.efined Wlro.)\nTOltONTO.

An analysis\nof Canada's prospects oi' completing\nher promised army of 500,000 either\nby conscription or without it appears\nin a leading New York newspaper. It\nis remarkable for Its outspokenness, if\nsomewhat exaggerated in tone.\nIt says; \"Nobody dreads conscription\nmore than Sir Robert Borden and his\ncabinet ministers, it probably would\ndefeat its own purposes. Fifty thousand Canadians already have tied over\nthe border to live in tho United Stales\nuntil the war is over, frightened out\nof Canada by tile mere talk nf conscription and tlie exodus is still in\nprogress. The thing Canada can least\nafford to lose is manpower. Hut the\nchief menace of conscription would be\niu its effect on Quebec. That it would\nmean the rebellion of that province,\nwith its more than l!,000,000 French\nCatholics and a civil war in Canada is\nthe firm belief of many serious-minded\nworth-while men of Canada, hoth\nFrench and English. Quebec is not\npro-British; she is even loss pro-\nFrance. And she is much less pro-\nCanada than she is pro-Quebec, She\nis for Quebec, tin1 Roman Catholic\nchurch and the French language first,\nlast and all the time and nothing outside matters, unless Quebec considers\nil hostile to her, to her church or her\nlanguage. Then she wants to fight.\nThere are English speaking Conservatives who admit all this and still say:\n'Let us have conscription and a civil\nwar if necessary, and then show Quebec her place iu this Dominion unci'\nand for all, because now is the best\ntime to do it.\" There are others who\nscout the idea of rebellion and urge\nconscription on tlie ground that it\nwould not lose the Conservatives any\nstrengtli in Quebec, for they have none\nthere to lose and thai it would\nstrengthen tbe party in power everywhere else in tlie country. They seem\nto leave out of account the Germans\nand Austrlans and the thousands of\nAmericans who have moved into Canada to live, but who would have no\nrelish for fighting in Europe.\"\nHow much truth there is In this analysis the reader can decide for himself.

This, provision of\nthe law went into effect Thursdny.\nChildren htween 15 and Ifi years of ugc\nare granted work permits as in the\npast upon school records certifying tlie\nholders have completed the work of\nthe first six years. These new requirements were made by tbe legislature last spring through the enactment\nof the Wellington law. It Is expected\nthnt the law Will materially cut down\nthe large and increasing number of\nchildren lenving school each year to\nenter industries.\nThe New York child labor committee\nwhich has for nearly 15 years taken\nan active part In urging child labor\nlegislation in this state, issued yesterday a statement with reference to\nthe law as follows:\n\"In th<* opinion of the committee, tbe\nEmpire state on Feb. 1 takes a marked\nstep forward In its standard of care\nfor child workers. This new law, that\nin effect raises the minimum working\nage to 15 for undergraduates, places n\npremium on further education, and is\nthe first change in 211 years directly\nresulting in a higher age standard.\"\nGLASGOW HOUSING\nREFORM CONFERENCE\nGLASGOW, Scotland\u2014A conference\nof the Scottish Labor Housing association was held in Glasgow recently under the presidency of Haillle James\nStewart, About 700 delegates attended from various parts of Scotland. The\nehnlrman in opening the proceedings,\nread a letter from Mr, Barnes, M. P.,\nin which he referred to the need for\nhousing reform. Bnlllie Stewart then\nspoke of the progress made hy the association and to the deputations that\nhad recently been received on the\nquestion by Mr. McKinnon Wood and\nMr. Long, These gentlemen, ho said,\nhad expressed their sympathy with the\ndesire for housing reform, but he advised the delegates not to put tnelr\ntrust In statesmen, because statesmen\ndid not act in advance of public opinion. Publio opinion, he snid, had to\nkick very hard before the authorities\nwould hear or feel. In districts where\nmunition factories had been Het up,\nUaillle Stowart continued) the government had come In with grants where\nthere was a dearth of houses for munition workers. That he took as an indication thai housing would bo an state\nlines.\nGoing on to consider various aspects\nof the housing question in Scotland,\nBalllle Stewart remarked that the association was nlming at the total abolition of single-apartment, and the\nalmost total abolition of two-apartment houses, and added that nearly\neverywhere the tenement had been\ncondemned. He tiien dealt with the\ntrouble thut was likely to arise at the\nconclusion of the war when the people\ncame back tn take up house with no\nbouses for them nnd pointed out that\n320,000 persons In the building trade\nwere engaged In war service. Naturally when they came back to civil life\nthey would want work. On these\ngrounds he urged thom to do all in\ntheir power to secure housing to meet\nthe demand Hint would then exist.\nOn the following duy the conference\nagain met and resolutions were passed\nin furtherance of the association's policy of having dwelling houses built by\ntown and county councils with money\ngranted by parliament or derived from\nthe profits accruing from municipal or\ncounty enterprises, the houses to be\nrented at a sum covering all charges\nof land, building.nnd maintenance, but\nfree from the burden of Interest,\nDr. A. Maxwell Williamson gave a\nlecture dealing with the extent and effect of the housing evil, and a paper\non \"The Economics of Interest-Free\nPolicy on Housing\" was read by Councillor John Whcatley. Among other\nmattersJdealt with was the question of\ninsufficient housing accommodation\nfor workers at Rosytli.\n\"'T-Tiii'fr*\nDAILY\n^^^^^^j^^j^^.\n- ....... -SAiiuflbAYi FriiSuASy,i0( istl\nIn Woman's Realm\nIS THE MODERN GIRL\nAN IMP\"\nLooking Back Half a Century\u2014Notes\nfrom Old-fashioned Book of\nDecorum.\nIf you would but see how our manners have changed since grandmamma\nwas young you should look through\ntho pages of an old-time, book on\ndecorum.

Today the\npotato and other roots are i*ecognlzed\nas the most important human foods\nnext to cereals. In America, the most\nimportant tubers.aie the potato and\nsweet potato, about one-eighth of our\nfood coming from this source, while\nabout one-fourteenth comes from nil\nother vegetables tog sthor.\nCases of potato poisoning occur infrequently. They are cnused by niv\nexcess of solanih\u2014to which the root\nprobably owes its distinctive flavor-\nIn unripe, sprouting potatoes, tubers\nwhich have grown on the ground surface or which have been exposed to\nthe light frequently and turn green\non exposure. Before cooking, the flesh\naround the sprouts should lie cut\naway.\nLargo Proportion of Water,\nFrom 70 to 00 per cent of the potato is water. Most, of the rest is carbohydrates, Thero is very little ni- j\ntrogerioiis material and considerable\nmineral matter or ash. By evaporating]\nond frying the relative amount of j\nprotein is raised, and In cooking and\nserving this result may be effected j\nby using butter, milk, eggs, meat, etc. I\nPotato chips contain only 2 per cent\nwater nnd 39.8 per cent fat, whereas\nthe raw tuber contains about 78 per;\ncent water and 1 per cent fat. !\nBecause of their low proteid content,\npotatoes can be made an exclusive article of diet. Experts have estimated\nthat a person would hnve to cat 10\npounds of potatoes a day to get enough\nprotein. Of course, his stomach and\nbowels would not lie large enough to\naccommodate this mass of food. In\nsome European countries, where potatoes are almost the only article of food,\nthe body has partially readjusted itself\nlo tlie diet, and the result is the all- ,\nnormally developed \"potato belly.\"\nEarly Varieties Best.\nIn buying potatoes, the housewife\nshould select the early varieties. These\nhave smooth skins and are comparatively rich in minerals, acids and protein. Smooth, regular-shaped tubers\nwith few eyes are more economical,\npeeled without undue waste. Late in\nthe season well developed potatoes are\ndesirable.\nThe most economical way to cook\npotatoes is \"in the jacket.\" This prevents tho evaporation, nnd soaking out\nof important Food elements. In bolting\nIn tho jacket remove a section of skin\nat each end or pnre a ring about the\ncentre so that moisture may escape\nand prevent sogglness. For the same\nreason In baking In the skin prick\nholes hi the jacket so that the steam\nformed In the ceils can escape before\nchanging back to water. In frying,\nthe potatoes should be cut into small\npieces.\n-\u2014+-\u2014*-*+-**-*\nAvoid caustic and acid preparations that discolor and damage\naluminum.

He\nIs tlie one and only channel through\nwhich government decisions will reach\nthe commuiulcrs-in-chlef on the various fronts\", and It will also bo through\nhtm that M. Albert Thomas, who from\nunder-seeretury has been made minister of armaments, will receive communications from the Grand Quartier\nGeneral.\nThis concentration of power has not\nbeen effected with regard to the minis-\nter of war alone, it relates to every\ndepartment. M. Albert Thomas, for\ninstance, over and above the control\nof guns and shells which he had as\nundersecretary, will now have the entire producing power of the country\nat his disposal, and will he responsible\nfor providing the army and aviation\nservice with all the material requisite.\nIn the initiation of schemes for the\nproduction of guns, M. Albert Thomas\nIs taking on powers which were, before\nthe reorganization, entirely in the\nhands of the commander-in-chief. He\nwill ubc them subject to the final sanction of tlie minister of war. Though,\nof course, the new balance of power\nhas shorn the eommunder-ln-chlef ot\nsome of his privileges, he yet remains\nthe entiro master of tbe strategy on\nhis particular front. In that respect,\nGeneral Nivelle will have exactly the\nsame opportunity as Generul Joffre\nnnd the record of General Lyautey In\nMorocco proves him to be perfectly\ncapable of exercising undisputed authority as responsible head, while allowing perfect Independence tn tactical\nmatters to tho men whose part Is to\nlead tho armies In the field.\nx Is Soothing,\nCooling and\nWAR PRISONERS FROM SPAIN\nNOW IN BRITISH HANDS\nMADRID, Spain\u2014For a short time\npast there have been rumors of a miscarriage ot a grand attempt at escape\non the part of a large number of tho\nGorman Interned officers, brought to\nSpain from the Cameroons, and these\nhave led to German statements issued\nfrom Berlin and received In Spain to\ntbe effect that the officers In question\nwho escaped from Vigo, bad duly\nreached a Belgian port in safety, and\nso bad completedly established their\nescape. The number was given as BO.\nAs a matter of fact thero is the best\nreason to believe that though 20 German officers have undoubtedly escaped from Vigo, the fact now being officially announced by the Count do\nRamonones, they certainly have not\nreached Germany, but on the contrary\naro now more prisoners than ever\u2014in\nEngland. Tho facts, as they arc stated In Madrid, with every possible degree of authenticity, aro that the organizer of this expedition wus a certain\nLieut. Koch, who had boon Interned at\nPamplona since last August. He took\n10 others with htm Into -his scheme,\nand It was intended to attempt the escape immediately. A number of difficult circumstances Intervened, however, and again when a start was planned for a later date, a rough sea caused further delay. Admirably organized\nas was the scheme, it ncvef bad any\nsuccess from the beginning. Koch and\nhis- friends, having left ^Pamplona,\nmade their way to the port bf Vigo and\nthere for the sum of 11,500 pesetas,\nthey purchased an old sailing ship of\nthe name of Vlrgen-dcl-Socorro. She\nwas a poor sort of tub but nil that\ncould be afforded or even purchased,\nfor ships are not now saleable to the\naliens iu Spain, and perhaps sho was\ngood enough for her hazardous enterprise. ,\nIt was cleverly arranged that she\nshould be anchored alongside the German steamship Wehrt and from there\nmake all tholr arrangements on the\nVirgon-del-Socorro at their leisure. It\nis clear also that tho German vice-\nconsul at Vigo assisted his compatriots\nto the best of bis ability. At length all\nwas In readiness and In the middle of\nthe night tho Vlrgon-del-Socorro crept\ncarefully out of the harbor and began\nbeating her way along the high seas\nnorth. She was flying the Dutch flag\nin the hope that this would satisfy\nany English cruisers who happened to\ndiscover her in the distance. The plan\nof the expedition was to sail round the\nBritish Isles, drop down Into the North\nsea and then gain a Bolglnn port. From\nthe outset, however, everything went\nwrong, and no sooner had they got well\nclear of the Spanish shore thnn a heavy gale arose, increasing to something\nnear a hurricane. After six days of\nthis, the VIrgen-del-Socorro with Captain Koch in command, found herself\npainfully close to the English coast,\nbeing, as matter of fact, just off the\nI.Izard on the Cornish shore, Tho\nstate of things was then such that it\nwas (dearly impossible to carry out the\noriginal intention of sailing round the\nnorth of Scotland, and with much\npluck but slender hope, Koch set the\nnose of the ship up the English channel. For a night, when It was dark,\nthe old ship tacked along, but- when\nthe sun rose the inevitable English\ntorpedo boat came steaming up at full\nspeed and the tale of adventure was\nfinished. The Virgen-del-Sncurro was\nthen off Dungeness and she was led\nquietly Into Ramsgatc. while Koch and\nhis men will remain In England until\nthe end of the war with, perhaps,\nhardly such a splendid freedom as they\nenjoyed at Pamplona.\nIf there is any\nskin trouble,\ntouch it with Cuticura Ointment\n-after the bath.\n= He can't sleep\nand eat if he has\nskin troubles.\nSample Each Free by Matt\nWith 32-p.
