Take the "Veil" from
Your Vision
Some people put a heavy veil
on, so t o speak, when they look
through their reading glasses at
objects more than a few feet

This proves that they need
KRYPTOK glasses. The glass

IN THE DIVORCE COURT
Hubby Charges Spouse With Stealing
Money and Provisions
Two days after the couple was
married John Trachsel charged his
bride, Marie, with stealing $10 and
within a short time butter and cream
were added to a list of articles he is
said to have accused her of pilfering.
They were married February 25, last,
and the wife is 65 years old. Cruelty
is the ground upon which she seeks
divorce in a complaint filed here Fri
day. She would resume her former
name, Maria Loertscher.
When Frieda Brown called R. C.
Brown a "lazy fool," and otherwise
taunted her hard-working spouse,
adding insult to injury by kicking
him, according to his complaint,
Brown rebelled and Friday he filed
suit for divorce in Judge Campbell's
court. The couple was married at
Tacoma on August 15, 1914. From
April 8 to November 5, 1915, Brown
alleges, his wife stayed away from
her home for some unknown reason,
but after he reinstated her in the
home upon her return, she continued
her cruel treatment, he says.
Ernest W. and Emma J. Bailey
are not suited to one another; they
quarreled continually and their so

and thus broke down his health. They
were married at La Grande, Ore., on
October 19, 1910, and have one son.
Bailey offers to contribute $10 a
month to the support of the child and
allow hiswife the custody of the

Clackamas Farmers Take Interest
The local office of the Exteilsion
Service of the O. A. C-, working in
conjunction with the U. S. Agricul
tural department, is fast getting re
turns from the various units of the
Council of Defense recently organized
in this county, and reports, as far
as they go, are encouraging. They
indicate that the farmers are realiz
ing their responsibility in the cam
paign of food preparedness and many
additional acres will be planted; of
ferings of seed are being .made at a
satisfactory rate, on the one hand,
and many calls for information as to
where they can get seed are proving
the necessity of this very medium of
exchange offered by the O. A. C. service.
Prof. E. B. Fitts is anxious to
mpress upon the farmers the will
ingness of the service to aid them in
any way possible, and asks them not
to hesitate to write him about their
troubles.
As fast asthe blanks, which .were
sent out to the various units through
out the country, are received, the
figures are being compiled and the
information forwarded to Washing
ton. The girls of the Honor Guard
have volunteered their services in
this work, and are proving a great
help to Prof. Fitts and his assistant,
Mr. Case.

AIRCRAFT SCOUTS.
Their Value In Naval Warfare In
Locating Submarines.
NOT GOOD AT SINKING THEM.
While They Are Clever at "Spotting"
the Submerged Boats, It Is Only by
Great Skill and Good Luck That a
Bomb Can Be Dropped to Iti Mark.
lu some ways an aeroplane Is more
effective in locating a sjbuiariue tliau
a destroyer or a patrol boat, and it
may even lie able tu exceptional cir
cumstances to destroy the uudersea
vessel, says C. G. Grey, editor of the
London Aeroplane.
There Is a popular Illusion, which Is
not exactly a delusion.' tliut the ob
server In an aeroplane can see as fur
down Into the water as a submarine
is likely to (live. Up to a point this Is
true, for tf the water is clear It In pos
sible to see some twenty or thirty feet
Into It from a point vertically above,
and If such water Is only forty or fifty
feet deep a submarine is not likely to
dive beyond the visibility point.
It Is quite unotucr matter, however,
where the water is u kind of leaded
gray lu color aud where ten feet of
water over the periscope Is enough to
hide a submarine as effectually as if
she were twenty fathoms down
Therefore It is fairly obvious that t lie
scouting air craft have to depend on
surfaco vision quite as much as the
patrol boats. Where the difference
does come in Is in the angle of vision
from which that surface view Is oh
tallied.
For Instance, a patrol boat mlsht
well miss seeing a periscope half a
mile away, especially if the periscope
were between the bout and the sun.
so that the reflection of the sun off
the water was dazzling the lookout
men. The aircraft observer, on the
other hand, perched up aloft, w.mld
have a far better chance. The peri
scope, cutting through the water,
makes a very distinct wake which
spreads out on each side so that It
makes a light but quite distiuct "uroad
arrow" of foam.
When the periscope Is above water
the top of the conning tower is not
far below, so that this also is visible
unless there Is a heavy breaking sea.
And probably the bubbles from the ex
hausting air can also be seen.
Thus an escort of seaplanes should
have a far better chance of spotting ;
the presence of submarines (bun could
any escort of surface ships. At the
same time it is well to remember that
an escort of destroyers or some similar
type of armed ship Is necessary, be
cause the aeroplane or airship of today
Is not capable of carrying guns big
enough to sink submarines with cer
tainty, and the art of bomb dropping
from aircraft has not become suffi
ciently a science to make the certainty
of the bombs reaching their mark as
great as is the certainty of a shell
from a four Inch gun doing so.
Therefore the aircraft by them
selves can only hope to keep subma
rines submerged by dropping bombs at
them, though they muy sink one here
and there by a combination of persoual
skill and good luck, whereas by acting
as "spotters" for the highly trained
gunners of destroyer flotillas they can
co-operate very materially In the ac
tual destruction of enemy submarines.
Where the naval air craft really do
come in is In the Immense surface of
sea which they can cover In a very
short time aud their ability to take
enemy submarines by surprise while
lying on the surface "airing" them
selves aud charging up their batteries
A small fast scouting aeroplane does
anything between eighty and a hun
dred miles an hour, and at a height of
7,000 or 8,000 feet it is fairly i-ard to
see. On land one is generally warned
of an aeroplane's arrival by the sound
of its engines, but at sea the lapping
of the water and the whistling of the
wind through rigging or around super,
structure drowns the sound of the aero
engine till It Is fairly close. Conse
quently a seaplane has more than a
sporting chance of getting within a
mile or so of a submarine before it Is
seen, and if It gets within that dis
tance it should be able to make things
very unpleasant for the submarine,
even if it has not the luck to sink It
outright.
. Even at night hi moderately fair
weuther, which is uaturully the best
for submarine operations, big seaplanes
with searchlights could do much to
keep submarines under water aud so
add to tlrfir troubles by preventing
tbem from stopping on the surface
long enough to ulr their interiors und
to charge their storage butteries. New

English hearts are gladdened when
Out of children's lips again
Comes the lilt of English song
When their absence has been long:
Children running through the Btreet
Beating time with merry feet

But to hear them as they sing.
Brings a sudden questioning:

CHILDREN NOT NEEDED
Adult Help, 18 Years and Over, Is
Wanted on Farms
Answers to questions sent to
grange officers by the National Child
Labor committee indicate that farm
ers do not want or need city children
Of the replies received to date, which
I cover 15 states, 62 per cent say un
I qualifledly "No," to the question,
I "Are city school children wanted to
work in your district?" An Illinois
farmer writes: "Farmers are in need
of adblt help, 18 years and over."
The Minnesota state grange master
says: "Nearly all the work is carried
on by either gas or horse power and
I find they do not understand how to
drive a horse or handle machinery."
Of those who mention the lowest
age at which a boy is useful, 64 per
cent say 14 or over. Those who men
tion the need of children say they are
wanted for berry picking or truck
eardeninir. but only 12 per cent of
all the answers say, without qualifi
cation, that children are wanted on
the farms.

These men sell accident insurance
