Dixon, state com missioner of health, says that hys teria should not play a part in fix ing diet or rations in these times of stress. The people of to-day require a mixed diet. They can not subsist on one thing and get the same re sults that they have been getting or meet the high tension demands of the present day, argues Dr. Dixon and it is essential to use common sense In making up a food ration. "From our actual experience in life, after long devotion to the feed ing of people, we have learned that a mixed- diet Is essential to good health. The practical experience of the individual must be a factor in guiding him in the selection of foods and the quantity he can eat," savs Dr. Dixon.

"A French lieutenant on board savs he was 6n the stern gun deck and watching through glasses. He savs that our shell exploded, and that the kind or shells they use on these French vessels do not explode unless they hit; that the impact of strking the water is not enough to explode them. So, according to him, we hit our mark. I could see the shell strike just in front of the periscope, so it may have pierced the boat itself "As a whole there was little ex citement. particularly after the first two sots."

The Governor say 3 existing laws "judiciously concern themselves with this matter. This bill does not. It lb by far the most drastic bill in re gard to birth control In this country. It is by like token one of the most reactionary attempted In years." In the course of his message the Governor says: "The popular mind is filled —If I may judge this mind from many telegrams and letters be fore me—with all sorts of miscon ceptions concerning the provisions of this bill, it is not a bill to regu late the size of families, but an at tempt to prevent any one from doing anything "to interfere with or dimin ish the birth of human beings in this Commonwealth." Just how any one could diminish birth is not mad'i -manifest. The language is viciously vague and indefinite in the extreme. This bill miglu be construed to pun ish those that oppose the marriage of the insane or the feeble-minded. Indeed, the Commonwealth's own acts In segregating these unfortu. nates in institutions like Baurelton would come under the penalties of this bill. It Is In other words, coun ter to the whole current of modern social endeavor, and as has been pointed out. could be made a con venient club for the blackmailer. It would deny a physician the duty In defined cases, of advising his pa tient. It would seal the lips of moth ers and fathers in counselling their children. It Is an attempt to do by legislation what must be done by education." R. F. Webster Honored . by Owls; Nest to Erect Large Building Here R. F.

RA/LRQADNEVS CAR SHORTAGE IS GROWING LESS President Willard, of Defense Council, Says Railroads Re sponded Nobly to Need "Washington, July 16.—"The es sence of the railroad situation," said President Willard, chairman of the committee on transporttalon of the Council of National Defense, In an Interview yesterday, "Is that the rail roads of the whole United States are nationalized. The 693 railroad com panies operating in forty-eight states and controlling "03,000 miles of road, are responding admirably to central direction from' the so-called railroad war boards of railway pres idents. President Willard explained that last summer the railroads worked out with Colonel Baker, of the quar termasters' corps of thea rmy, a complete scheme for wartime rail road operations and that this scheme, since elaborated and per fected, lias worked so well that "during the last two months the rail roads of the country, though hand ling vastly more ton miles than ever before, have been constantly trans porting troops in considerable num bers without the least interrupting regular traffic." Heavy Traffic Breaks Record The regular, traffic has been larger probably than in any previous period in the history of the country. "Traf fic was heavy bofore the United States entered the war," he said, "be cause of the necessity of moving tre mendous quantities of supplies, ma terial and finished products for the allies, but since April 6 it has In creased tremendously.

NATIONAL GUARD TO BE AT FRONT BY CHRISTMAS Training in Southern Camp Cay Be Comparatively Brief 125,000 Citizens Answer Call of the President Washington. July 16. One hun dred and twenty-tlve thousand Na tional Guardsmen in eleven States, the first contingent of nearly half a million men, have been mobiliz ed preparatory to entering concen tration camps to train for fighting in France. Ten days from to-day another 100,000, representing nineteen other States, will bo mobilized and made ready to entrain for the South. . In three weeks the third con tingent from seventeen Southern States will be called to the colors, completing the mobilization of the first sixteen divisions of the citi zen army from which an expedi tionary force to re-enforce the regulars tinder Oeneral Pershing in Fyance will soon be drawn. Washington. July 16. lf the plans of the War Department are car ried out the Pennsylvania National Guard, now in Federal service, will spend Christmas in the trenches of France While no definite plans have yet been made for sending It abroad, and would not be announced at this time if they were made, it Us known to be the department's belief that the guard, after a comparatively brief stay in the training camp at Augusta, Ga., will be ready for field service. The only word officially spoken on this subject was the statement made some time ago that It was hop'd to have the National Guard in France before snow flies. Up to Jthl time there has been no development that would cause any delay in the plans that were then contemplated, so that it can be assumed that the hope thus expressed still Jiolds good. It Is stat ed that the training camp at Augusta will be ready to receive the Pennsyl vania division by August 1. If the men reach there by the first of Au gust and can begin their course of training immediately, It is the opinion of experts In military affairs that they will be ready for field service within three months at the latest and pos sibly before that. This is especially 'rue in view of the fact that at least naif of the National Guard of the country will be composed of men who have SPII service and # who are season ed veterans as compared with raw re cruits. It is believed that no later than No vember 1 the National Guard will be in condition to take its place upon the firing line. This would (five two months in which to fill the vacancies in the guard organizations from the conscripted army and train the new men. since the draft army is to he called into training quarters on Sep tember 1. For obvious reasons in the interest of safety there will be no pre liminary announcement as to the date when the National Guard is to be sent abroad, but it is considered very like ly that it will be on its way by the time snow flies. So far as possible it is to be the policy of the War Department to pre serve territorial units in the National Guard as In the national army. This being the ease, it is expected that the Pennsylvania division will go abroad as a division and will not be broken up. It is not expected that the pres ent organization of the National Guard of the country can be preserv ed precisely as It is. but so far as It is possible the department will ob serve the present divisional and bri gade formations and keep them to gether. / NEED MESSENGER BOY The United States Civil Service Commission anilounces an open com petitive examination to secure ell glbles from which to make certifi cates to fill a vacancy in the position of messenger boy, at $360 per annum in the Weather Bureau here.

The Ger man torpedo supply 'is weakening, according to a statement Issued by the Navy League to-day, based on the opinions of naval experts. The Increasing frequency with which press dispatches report merchant ships as successfully dodging Ger man torpedoes suggests to the tech nically trained mind, it is stated, that the German torpedo is deterior ating in speed and hence in accuracy of fire at long range. At the outset the Germans were extremely careful to conserve their torpedoes, It is said. Merchant ships were sunk by bunflre wherever pos sible. But the arming of merchant ships and the constant Improvement in the Allies' system of defence against submarine attack have driven the submarines under water, and they are now forced to use torpedoes in almost every attack. The Increase in the number of submarines has fur ther added to the strain upon the German stock or torpedoes.
