But a large percentage of soldiers pay no attention to the play ing of the anthem, and this has given rise to much discussion. Yet it is not to be wondered at, when uniformed men who have served in the fight ing overseas will pass even a general on the street at home without salut- ing.

The runway in- side the outer envelope is 200 yards long, and no doubt the erew can hold a dance there if they want to. The gondolas in which the engines &nd observation instruments are lo- cated are glassed in and heated, when desired, by hot water. The despatches do not say that there are a library, a music room, a reception room, a gymnasium and a swimming pool, but if the R-34 lacks these lux- uries of ocean travel some future model of the transatlantic airship may have them. Travelling overseas in such a craft as this is quite a different thing from being shot across in an exposed air-| = plane at a speed of a hundred and| twenty miles an hour, and somehow makes more of an appeal to the tremulous traveller.

While the epithets, traitor, liar and 'coward, stili retain their mean~ ing in our language, the name of Ti= tos Oates, who died two hundred and thirteen years ago today, will be uni- versally execrated. Born about 1650, the son of a Norwich ribbon-weaver, who afterwards'became a preather, the boy had a good education and entered Cambridge University in 1667. He took orders and held one or two minor curacies until he was appointed a naval chaplain, from which pesition he was soon ousted on account of reprehensive conduct, Fol- lowing his dismissal from the Navy he invented a plot of Roman Catho-| i lig conspiracy and feigning conver- sion to that faith he was admitted as Brother Ambrose to the Jesuit Semi- ] nary at St. Omer. Vile conduct there led to his expulsion and returning tu London he communicated his pre I tended plot to the authorities, inelud- | ing in its details the murder of the || King, the burning of Lordon and a rising of all the Roman Catholles in the kingdam. Charles treated the story with contempt, but Oates swore Rippling { He follows very closely the games in all the big leagues, and it is his usual custom to go down to New York and Brooklyn every vear and view a few of the big matches with «his son, Dr, Harry Hunter, who is a well-known gra- duate of Queen's University.
