After pro- ceeding slowly most of the way down, she increased her power at 6:30 and reached the capes just after dusk. None of the allied cruisers were visible as she passedthrough. Whether she submerged before reaching the three-mile limit is unknown. The two accompany- ing boats only know that she dis- appeared unharmed and that to all appearances she’ had a clear field ahead to a point where she could completely submerge in safety. Half an hour after the last light of the Deutschland had disappeared, the Timmins, seem- ingly satisfied with her work, turned back and hedded up the Chesapeake bay in the direction of Baltimore. During a part of the day the Deutschland had remained hidden Kansas. Eulalia Sturgeon is spending a few days near Harrisonville, with her sister, Mrs. Jessie Wirt. We promised to tell of the fish-| ing trip. Mr. Wick Ray gave or- ders for no one to come home and tell any big fish stories, but you know we believe he wanted to tell them first. At least we will tell this much, we all enjoyed the day.. It was cool and pleas- ant, and we got a nice lot of fish. This dry weather has ‘gotten to be serious.

A recent New York survey shows that a high-school education is worth as much to a farmer as $6,000 worth of 5 per cent bonds. A high-school education does not insure success.
