EUROPE KNOWS— NOW
HE SUPERDREADNAUGHT "Pennsylvania” —launched at
Newport News this week—is the darling of Uncle Sam’s
Nav- -e-e. and the finest floating fighter anywhere upon—or
beneath—the briney billow. Our bill for the mammoth murder
mat 5 e will tap the national treasury for $14,000,000 and some
few o id-hundred thousands. One well directed torpedo, costing
but an insignificant sum, would send the giant of the deep to
Davey Jones’ locker, beside the crumbling galleys of ancient
Greece —if any were convehieht §6 much for the “Pennsyl
vania’s" transitory worth in real war. In peace—ah, that’s a
different matter; dignity of the flag, international respect, all
that sort of thing!—in peace the dreadnaught is a standing in
vitation to trouble. Europe knows. If it might be said that
the “Pennsylvania” represented America’s last investment in
naval bluff and swagger, this nation, and the world, would take
a stride forward.

THE JOUSTING JABBERWOCK
NTERS NOW ANOTHER character in Pacific coast journal
ism; a straight spoken little brochure, with a punch in every
paragraph. It is the Jabberwock, a knight errant of letters,
bearing the address of Crescent City, California. The Jabber
wock has a well defined mission—it will swing a stuffed club at
the shams, shames, and big-little matters which folks ordinarily
speak of in whispers. From the treatm ent afforded subject mat
te r in the March issue, No. 1, it is not risking the bet to wager
that those trenchant truths therein expounded will command an
interested circle of readers. The editor is a widely known and
talented newspaper man, who adopts the alias of Julius Jabber.
May his typewriter never cease clattering! There is work for
it, and a place for that grotesque stranger, the Jabberwock.
The magazine will be for sale on news stands and in trains.
