BRITISH SEE NEW VIEWPOINT IN WORLD WAR Train Youths in Schools for Service to Themselves and the Nation.

A PLACE IN ENGLAND. July 16. (Mail.) British military authorities are convinced that the day of the euperman has arrived, and that the part he is to play in ending the war and regenerating the world cannot be overestimated. A representative of the Associated Press who was permitted to visit a great traaining school as tho guest of the foreign office, obtained an insight to the remarkable change brought about in the British viewpoint during the past three years. The British not only are putting forth all their energy in further perfecting their fighting forces, but are actually and earnestly devoting themselves to the development of their youth in a manner calculated to fit for any or all eventualities which may arise in the years to come. Fight German Idea. If the Germans cherished the Idea of eliminating Britain as a world pow

er, Britain, it is said, far from being

beaten, now sees with a clearer vision than ever before, and is preparing to turn the scales against her adversary in such a way as they may never again swing back. While statesmen are being made and

unmade with the changing fortunes of

war, the great eilent forces cf a nation

proud of its traditions and thoroughly

aroused to its own shortcomings are constantly marching, in an almost endless chain, from training schools to battle fronts and back again. Stretched over many miles of rolling hills, carpeted with green foliage, is the school wherein hundreds of thousands of British youth are being taught to master themselves, as one of their instructors expressed it, "so that they be better prepared to master their enemy and live their lives as they would live them." Use Their Senses. "Use your eye and your brain," is the new British watchword which is being instilled into the British youth with all the force at the command of his superiors. "We are training our men to believe in themselves," said the general commanding the school. "Each must not only feel that he is better equipped physically and mentally than his antagonist, but he must be able to demonstrate it. That is the lesson wc have learned from the world war." i As the average Britisher is naturally a sportsman, his games are beginning to play an important part in his training. In shooting, bombing and all the various arts of warfare, these are prov- i ing invaluable to him. ! "I have been very much impressed

with the fact that most men who are

prominent in our games distinguish

themselves at the front," declared the

general. "They are keen, thoughtful and clear sighted and for that reason become the best fighters."

OIT THE VAY TO CAMR

To alleviate the need for lumber being experienced at the Linda Vista cantonment, immense rafts of Oregon pine logs sent from a point on the Columbian River, Oregon, 1,000 miles from its mouth, have been floated down the Pacific Coast from San Pedro to San Diego, California. The lumber structures, for such they are, measure 800 feet long and 52 feet wide, and the current shipment totals 8,000,000 feet of sturdy logs. Each log is from 80 to 100 feet long and about 4 feet in diameter. The rafts are held together by great steel link chains; 64 are utilized in the present shipment, each link is 2 inches. More than 200 tons of iron was used in the manufacture of these chains. The float draws 24 feet of water and rises out of the ocean 12 feet. Tugs are used to tow the rafts.

WASHINGTON "Two Little Imps," the William Fox Photoplay, starring Jane and Katherlue Lee, five and seven years old, respectively, will close its run at the Washington theatre today. This picture has had a wonderful showing here. It is something out of the ordinary and very well done. These children, now being starred for the first time, are captivating. They thrill and amuse tho old as well as the young. Mothers like to watch them and wish that their own offspring had r.ll of the genius shown by the Lees. These two little imps are a big help io their Uncle Billy in his wooing of Betty Murray. They bring about the redemption of Betty's brother Bob, who had fallen into evil ways and had leen disowned by his father. They aid in capturing two burglars, who attempt, with the bad Bob, to rob his father's apartment, Jane going so far as to smash a flatiron on the head of cne of the crooks. It's a fine picture. MURRETTE Thomas Meighan, who is appearing with Papline Frederick in "Her Better Self," a Famous Players-Paramount picture which plays at the Murrette tonight and Tuesday, says that playing opposite this strenuous star is the hardest work he ever did not excepting football and sawing wood for if there are any "stunts" and businesses" that the scenario misses, she puts them in. "For intance, in 'Her Better Self.' in the part where it was necessary for her to rush to my rescue in an automobile, 'she worked in one of the most exciting auto races against time ever pictured, driving her car although the director begged her to allow herself to be doubled in the dangerous work. This was all very well, but it necessitated holding up the decision of the jury until the auto could arrive and the work of the accused man (myself) was made doubly hard by the forced wait"

Embargoes on freight toward the east are flying thick and fast, say Pennsylvania officials. Nothing less thai carload lots can be shipped to points .west in Virginia and Pennsylvania, and carload shipments are taboo to several of the larger eastern cities. Changing conditions keep a loophole open to the east for western shippers, say the officials, as there is almost always a way to get shipments through if they are needed.

WHEELING, W. Va., Aug. 13.

on record as opposed to repeal or

modify the law during the war.

A Convenient Way !o Buy Furniture, Carpets, Rugs, Etc. It is inconvenient for many people to furnish their homes complete at one fell swoop. Especially is this so in the case of young married couples, who prefer to keep their nest egg intact in the savings bank for the proverbial "rainy day." Naturally one looks around for a solution of the home furnishing problem, and the most feasible and economical way is via the "Romey Club Plan." Why is this so? Because the merchandise is reliable. Because there are no interest charges. Because there are no embarrassing situations. Because payments are arranged most conveniently.

Safe Funds for your motor trip Automobiling calls for almost constant expenditures of money, but the danger from carrying large amounts of currency and the difficulty of cashing drafts or personal checks is great. "A.B. A." Cheques are particularly convenient for automobile tourists because they are accepted like currency by hotels, restaurants, public garages and supply dealers everywhere, and because the only identification needed is the owner's countersignature on each Cheque in the presence of the person accepting it. These Cheques are particularly safe because only the owner can use them. Unsigned Cheques which are lost or stolen are of no use to the finder or the thief, and may be replaced. Second National Bank
