WAR SAVINGS PLAN
` AND PENNY BANK
The War Savings 'Campaign con-
ductod tliroiighout the schools has not.
as seine people imagine, had a detri-
mental effect upon the operations of
the School Penny Bank. The deposits
nind,~, by the children in the schools to
the Penny Bank are on the increase,
especially among the school children
.of Otinwu as shown by the reports of
March und April.
In the National movement to incul-
cate habits of thrift among the young
people of Canada, there is room for
the War Savings Stamp Campaign as
well as for the Thrift Organizations of
thc Penny Bunk. The one ably sup-
plements the other and both work for
the ‘betterment of the individual and
the Community.
Reports are -being received daily at
tho Headquarters of the National Wai
Savings Community indicating how
splendidiy the War .Savings Campaign
is being taken up in the schools all
over thc country. The record of the
savings of the pupils in some 'schools
is most rerrinrkable. One school in
Cumberland County, N. S., where the
average attendance is only seventeen
(17), the total invested in War Sav-
ings and Thrift Stamps by the pupils
up to the end of May was $450.
Evidently the young people, with
their keen appreciation of what is
good, have realized the value of ln-
vestlng their money in this new
security of the Canadian Government
and are showing the way to their
elders.
Loose groceries are an Ieconomy.

TOBERMOIIY. August 12.-Active
diving operations in search for hid-
den treasure urc going on in Togcr-
mor Buy, _where n Sykes digger is
cuttl/ng through the boulders, clay and
sand over a Spanish Arniunda gal-
leon, which was sunk in 1588. A feu-
ture of the 0Dcrutlons is un effective
hose which Working at a pressure of
about 100 pounds per square inch,cui.s
up and -clears away thc' clay and mud
between the treuohescut by the dig-
ger in the tumulus containing the oi:
Galleon, revealing any solid. material,
which is immediately raised under the
care of the diver.
Already quite an array of'_rellcs
has been recovered, including a
silver peso. lt was the finding or
ii gold doubloc-n on the fluke of a
ship‘s anchor that started this search
for treasure in 1803.
The crew of the diving ship often
wonder how it is that they are get-
ting so many roundctf stones of‘three
and four inches diameter in the clay
and sand, but extracts from Spanish
State papers in the castle oil Siman-
cur explain the frequency with which
these are found as wen ns the quan-
tity of lend sheathing.
v"General orders for the .ariniinoci
by the Duke of Medina, Sliionio, :day
1588, page' 293:
“Every ship will carry on board
loads of casting stones, to be used
during the fight. These stones ure
to be distributed between the deck
thu poop und- the lighting tops."
Other orders given on the same
page run as follows:
"Artificial fire must bc entrusted
to the care ol' the inost skilled incn
who undcrstaiid how to iiiaiiage lt,
otherwise the result may be great
dainage to ourselves."
This accounts for so much lend
and copper sheeting being found in
the course of the soiircn. 'ro pro-
tect thcm, the big Spanish gnlleuns
used siiect lead and copper to
siicathe the wooden decks against
thc use of this artificial iirc on the
part of the English.
Among other relics brought up
during thc past ten weeks are cal-
careous accrotions showing ruste-
muskets, daggers. swords ami axes,
lead piping, pewter and quantities
of black African oak, much perfor-
ated by teredo worms. It is hoped
thiit the gallcon will be raised and
reconstructed.

New British Plan
To Reduce Prices
'non-DON. aug. 12.-:ras nritisn'
people, like the French, are in re-`
volt against high prices and profit-
eerlng and arc seeking to discover
some means by which to reduce the-
cost of living.
The inuguration of open air mar-
kets is the lastest idea by which to
defeat the proflteers and has proved
a great success.
At Ilford, a town witliln tlw Lon-
don radlus, the iniirkett yesterday
was crowded wlth ithshlonabiy
dressed women and men, many of
the latter wearing silk hats.
From' an early hour people from
all parts of ‘Essex and London
brought great quantities of fish,
vmfetriblesi ,fbwi and- rafbblts, and
fruits of all kinds at prices, in many
cases 50 per cent/below those of
the shops of the IOWH- '
The market was a surprisingly
busy scene. with the smiling faces of
the salesmen many of whom wear
badges showing war service as sou-
venirs, and happy purctiasetes.
The only people who pretest are
the shopkeers, who complain of un-
fair conipetition, us the sellers Df~‘.'v"
no rent for the stalls in thc market.
At Southland, the mouth of the
Thames, an open air antl-proflteer-
ing market was opened. One hun-
dred antl, ,isixty stalls urn selling.
Fish in the shops cost half a -dol-
lar, but only 25 cents in the market
and vegetables show a reduction of
twenty-five per cent on the stalls.
The sliopkecpers reduced prices to
inect competition, but the market
still is the cheapest paice in town
for the people.
Doubtless the swlftest passage over
;i long distance' over made by man
_was that of the daring aviators who
new from Newfoundland to Ireland.
They tinversed ii space of 1,032 miles
in 972 minutes. That was at the _rate
of.nenrly two miles a iiiliiute. To be
precise, it was-u mile in 30.18 seconds,
'or is fraction .loss than 175 a. second.
For a much less distance a slightly
higher speed was made by an army
airplane between Boston and New
York. The distdnco of 175 miles wus
inode in B3 minutes. That was u mile
in 23.45 seconds, or more than 185
feet in ii second. t
That is rapid travelling. lt is not,
however, the swiftest aerial night
known. A swallow could literally fly
round and r0und_one of those air-
planes when the latter -was at top
speed. Carefully conducted tests by
a French scientist have demonstrated
that the speed of a swallow in full
flight sometimes goes as high as 290
feet a second, or at the rate of u‘inile
'ln 18 seconds, while the ordinary flight
of ii swallow is 210 feet a second, or
considerably faster than thc airplane..
The eagle is a comparatively slow
bird on the wing, making no more
than 75 feet. a second, or much
less than liuif the speed of the air-
plane. Surprising as it may be to
many readers, the great, heavy'wild
goose, -which “bonks high" when
“everything is lovely," is a far swifter
bird than the eagle, ln fact, fully twice
as swift, rushing through the air at
the astonishing speed of 175 feet n
second. " The homing pigeon is also
for swifter than the eagle, having
been known to maintain an average
speed of 132 feet a second for a dis-
tance of ri hundred miles. Perhaps-the
swlftest bird of .prey is n species of
falcon, which has been known to fly
about a thousand miles in eleven
hours, or at the rate of 133 feet a sec-
ond.
These ‘speeds vastly excee,d,_ of
course, that of the fleetest ianil`_ uni
mais. The race horse running n miie
in two minutes covers only forty-four
feet a second. English fox-hounds
make sixty feet a second, and some
dogs are said to have run ninety fee
a second. Some smaller antelopes are
said to be much more speedy than the
larger deer. The huge giraffe, despite
its long legs. is believed not to go
the fleetest of all large land creatures
is the ostrich, which can run at the
rate of eighty feet a second.
Men can run about thirty-two feet
a second for a hundred yard sprint.
Contrary to common supposition. skat-
ers urs no swifter than runners, the
world's records 'for both being pre-
cisely tho same--9 2 5 seconds for a
hundred yards. Runners on skis have,
however, made as much as seventy-
two feet u second. and in leaping on
skis more than 100 feet a second, is
attained.
Leaping on skis is therefore doubt-
less the swiftest method of locomo-
tion yet practiced by msn. But even
ti.iat...is.,s1ow .nlten..oomi>ar.ed...wlih the
speed of some other creatures. it sur-
passes as we have seen the here and
the deer, and for outdlstances the
coniparatlvely slow kangaroo. But
there ls a jumping mouse in the Af-
rican deserts which is credibly said
to mnkc eighty leaps a second, of ten
feet each. That means 800 feet a sec-
ond. whlcn is more than four times
the speed of the airplane and three
times that ofa swallow. Nor is oven
this amazing creature the swiftest
known, for the commonflea has in his
leaping a velocity of 850 feet a sec-
ond, which approximates tcn nilics a
minute.

ed considerable surprise among his
compatriots' here and has been the
subject of so much comment. He
says “It is no great.socret that recent
events have a little upset the smooth
working of the Canadian administra-
tion here and though too much may
easily be made of this in connection
with the Liverpool incident it s not
strange that it should be recalled by
commentators who keep particularly
in niiud the feeling aroused over the
proposed exclusion of Canadian troops
from the peace marches.
if not the very first, which the
Prince ,made as heir apparent, was
addressed to several Canadian bat-
talions at Willey, early in May, when
colors were presented tp the 25th,
27th, 28th and 29th Battalions who
were leaving for Canada.
“ln October and November of lust
year.” said the Prince, addressing
the parade, "vi paid several visits to
the Second Canadian Division while
serving in Francs. so l feel no
stranger among you today, and I
know how often you have all covered
yourselves witii glory. Whether in
attack or defence, in trench warfare
or raids, you have won renown. Fut-
ure generaiiens will recall your noble
deeds in the battles on the' Sommo,
on Vimy Ridge, around Lens, Pass-
clienduele, Ainieng and Arras, and
will jeaiously treasure the memorable
traditions you hand down to tlir-in."
_Ther next time the Prince iiiot Can-
adians at a public function here was
later in May, when he was present ut
the dinner given by the Canaria (‘lub
to General Currie. I-Ils Royal lligli-
ness on that occasion announced his
forthcoming visit to the Doiiiliiion.
Announced His Visit.
"I was almost going to say i<00<l~
bye," said _the Prince, ‘but that
would have been a most inappropriate
term for me to have used because I
am very glad to be able to take this
opportunity-of announcing tonight
that I am going over to ~(Tanadn very
soon (Loud cheers.) 1 hope to sail
in less than three months’ time.
(Cheers) Naturally the prospect of a
visit to the great Dominion would
have delighted me under any circum-
stances, but I shall enjoy it nil the
more now, and I am looking forward
`ver.y`mucli to seeing so many , olrl
"friends as well. it is true that l shall
béssttlng foot on soil that is now t0
nie, but Canadian soil will not seem
strange, because évcn in the company
of several of you tonight l have wan-
dered ovci- the battlefields of Fiend-

ory of their gallant deed who res

In June the Prince dined at th
