Rosalind Robinson, little daughter of Commander Richard H. M. Rebinson, the company's managing director, christened the vessel with a bottle of champagne. As the big undersea boat slipped from the ways, she smashed the bottle against its bow with the words: “I christen thee L-5, for national de- fense.” Among the guests were Rear Admiral Cowles, U. S. N, of Farmington, brother-in-law of Col. Theodore Roose- velt; Lieut. A. W. Frank, superintend- ent of naval construction; Lieut, D. C: Lazoir, inspector of submarines; Lieut. John B.

The machine equipment will -be placed in the boat within the next two Weeks and the unofficial tests will.be- gin early in the summer. In Consequence of the General Rise in Prices. The Massachusetts Legislature is considering a bill to protect sheep by destroying or restraining dogs. It is strange how complex the situation is. The dog defenders say dogs are not greatly to blame for the decline of sheep-raising. They say also that the law would be hard on imnocent dogs, and offer a premium to the crafty dog catchers. The contrast be- tween the innocent dogs of Massa- chusetts and the vicious deer of Con- necticut is a caution. — Waterbury American.
