(B y Anna Pennell) M r. and Mre. T routm an a n ! daughters G ail and Thais went to Eugene Wednesday o f last week. Romance and mystery have not been taken from the high seas, even with Hie many inventions of man that help annihilate space and per m it communication with the world in its far-away places. D uring the last year 26 vessels that left port for a voyage failed to arrive nt their destinations. They steamed away and disappeared. What fate they met, how it came and where, all are a part of the mystery of the sea. Some were equipped with wireless with which they could keep in touch with the great stations along the sea coasts, btit from these vessels no call came. Like the Cyclops, they sailed away and from them came no word. No b it of wreckage picked up at sea was found to give a clew. Probably some mine, planted dur ing the war and not picked up wlieu peace came, broke loose from its moorings, was caught up by the great ocean currents and carriod out into the lanes of travel. Probably other vessels w ill be in collision with the lost mines, for there are many not yet accounted for. The inventions of man have done much to make safer the navi gation of the wide waters, but all the inventions of man thus far have not operated to take from the sea the mystery that has enveloped it since sailing first began. — Ohio Stute Journal.
