MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2G, 191? WHY THEY HATE EACH OTHER. The hatred existing between England and Germany is almost 'unquenchable says Goodwin's Weekly. It is, in truth a family quarrel. The Kaisers, mother v?as the oldest child of Queen Victoria, and the Germans al ways hated her for she "was self gfiled and given to sneering at German ways. Then all lite life" the Kaiser has "entertained kbelief lhat, as hd wasthe 'old est" son of the oldest child of England's queen, he is in truth tlie- real heir to the British throne. The first real clash came when in the Boer war the Kai ser offered open sympathy to old man Kruger. He did it too, just when Kitchner was drilling the raw British troops sent him, into battle form. At that time too, a German illustrated paper ' published a "cartoon of old man Kruger bending Queen Victoria over his knee and spanking her. This was when the old queen was near the close of her life, and was most dear to the Eng lish people. There was fro Eng lishman who saw that cartoon who did not want to fight Ger many, right there and then, and the hate has grown in his soul ever since. Then when after the Franco -Prussian war, Germany began to build ships and to challenge England in her oversea trade, more friction came. The final climax occurred when Germany produced a faster ship than Eng land had ever launched and be gan to build a dangerous war navy. Those successes caus ed Germany to begin to dream of controlling the world's trade, and of expanding her territory until she could have command ing ports on the North Sea, the Adriatic and the Mediteranean ; and by an understanding with Turkey she began to dream also of building a railroad from the Mediteranean to the back door oTf India in Central Asia. It has been plain for ten years past that a clash between the two great empires was ineyitabte But Germany thought to avoid bringing Russia Into the war. His grandfather repeatedly ad vised the Kaiser's father that whatever he did, to keep peace yth Russia. There Is no doubt that the first move made by the' Kaiser in 'this war was to seize the nor thern ports of France, and then make a smash at England and dictate terms of peace to her. The opposition she met in Bel gium saved France and England from a surprise. But it Inten sified the hatired existing be tween herself and England, and our belief Is that neither coun try will be satisfied until the real fleets of both countries meet and try conclusions. This will be the grand test of supremacy. 1 Something Good.

The Future Men and Women Who Do Not Get an Education Will Not bo In tho "swim. ' Last Friday Dr. John Straub of tho " University of Oregon gave an exceed ingly Interesting talk to the high school. Ho talked about tho worth, In dollars and cents, of an education His statistics showed a very decided difference in tho earning capacity of the college man and the grammar ' school man, tho college man earing ( about 10 times as much in 40 years as the grammar school man. "Every boy and girl can get a colloro education if he or she has the deter- mination to win," said Dr. Straub. He then spoke of a litUe girl with only her left arm and of tho way in which sho finished high school In three yeard , and then worked her way through col lege. Then he said "That shows what , a person can do when he has tho 1 determination." He then told somo pathetic storlei about somo of his classmates. Ono J was a street sweeper and another i' was an oflico boy, both of them were 1 middle aged men now. Ho told about J tho high esteem all of the University ( students had of the poor student?. 1 They even bought one poor fellow a book that bo could not buy himself. The boy or girl who does not obtain ! a college education will not be in tho "swim;" said tho instructor. In conclusion ho explained how one of his unfortunate classmates begged him to tell every boy or girl that ho saw about bis disastrous mistake so tbeywould not makethe samo blunders Same Grand Jury to Hold. At 3 c'clock Saturday afternoon the Lane county grand Jury reported il had completed its work, but Instead of discharging the, Jurors, Judge Skl-u worth contlnuedj the same grand Jury for the February term of court. Sev eral of the February panel of trial jail ors have, been excused on account of illness, and the court preferred to hqW over the present grand Jur, rather than so far depleting tho panel of trial Jurors that an additional 'list would have to bo drawn. The Best Recommendation. The strongest recommendation any article may receive Is a avorable word from tho user. It is tho recommends, tlpns of those who have used it that makes 'Chamberlain's Cough Remedy so popular, Mrs. 'Amanda Qlerhart.

There is much mystery about tho submarine commander. Tho Germans, whoj should know, have Written noth ing about him. Our oinditl and au thentic knowledge Is due to Itallau uaval authorities. Ho is, they assert with truth, a muchliie, but more than a military machine, atid technical knowledge and mechanical skill are not all. lie Is .ever n .lighter, but he Is not wholly a fighter. He has prudetice and singular patience. He Is not mas tered by the dust ami detail of tho moment, but looks calmly mid serious ly at great actions, thinking, planning and, above all. seeing Into the future. This Is the secret of his success, or his magnetism and his firm hold on the Imagination und will of his crew. Ho appears to be little known. This truth Is the theme of an authoritative essay on the physlquo and training of tie officers and men of a submarine which, appears' In tho current number of the Aunall dl Mediclna Navale. The cbmmandaiifs part l3 perhaps tho most difficult work In tho whole range of naval warfare. Tho manage ment of such a delicately balanced mechanism makes a tremendous de mand upon the mental and physical powers of its operator. The following la a description of tho kind of being upon whom the safety of the craft, tho safety of the crew and of numberless people In passenger ships depends. Great Mental Strain. "Admiralty orders assign to a sub taurine (the context shows that a ves sel of about 1,100 tons Is meant) two chief officers, a commandant and an officer to take his place. During sub mergenco the commandant has control of several complicated mechanical con nections. He has to regulate the speed, keep the ship level, attending: to the depth and course. For every attack bo has these things to look aftor: Folse and launch the torpedo, read and re rdad the objects lu tho reflectors of the periscope. It is evident that the brain is. thus subject to an extraordinary fa tlguo which cannot bo continued for any length of time, now many myste rious losses arc due to brain fag, to tho smallest thing going wrong with tho officer's vision or nerve? The eyes aro npt to grow tired, the sight to become dim, owing to the strain of looking Into the glass of the periscope by the feeble light of the tossing, endless waters. If one eye bo used the light Is perhaps better employed, and In this way stron ger but monocular vision tires moro quickly than the vision of two eyes. Soon the limit of endurance Is reached through tho great bodily and eye strain" In , the crew of the submarine, there must be technical experts to attend to tho torpedoes, the electric motors,. the steering gear, the horizontal planes, the machinery for letting lu air or ex pl'llmg water; there are electricians, Ill-emeu, oilers, polishers and others moro I1LV the sailors of ordinary times. .Gorman nallors or this type whom the writer has neon were remarkably deft, with u facile iicutncsH, that seemed in compatible with such merciless employ ment. They were quid; and light, qualities that are Indispensable to men. who must .overcome two physical forcesthe pressure of tho air, which tends to rise In u submarine under wa. tcr. und the blood pressure and teinix'r ature, which nlxo rise.
