E-7S I I I WO NOTED RIVERS Tagliamento and Livenza Become Important in Italy. One Stream of No Value Commercially, While the Other Is Known for Many Tributaries. The National Geographic society at Washington has Issued the following war geography bulletins on the Tagliamento and Livenza rivers, mentioned In the cable dispatches concerning the German drive Into Italy: "The Tagliamento river, whose flooded banks served as a rampart for the retreating Italians for only a few days, and which was crossed by the AustroGerman forces, Is a stream of no value commercially. It Is one of many small rivers rising In the Cnrnlc Alps and flowing through the Venetian plain Into the Adriatic. Its headwaters are near Mount Clapsavon, about sixty-live miles northwest of Its entrance into the Adriatic, but the course of the stream Is meandering, flowing first to the east and then south through a marshy valley, thus traversing a distance of "^00 miles. "Just 120 years ago the Tagliamento figured prominently In another great military campaign In northern Italy. It was during Napoleon's campaign of 1707 that re-enforcements were greatly needed by the French. Bernadotte, who afterward was placed by Napoleon on the throne of Sweden as Charles XIV, led his army with signal dispatch from the banks of the Rhine to his commander In chief, and at the passage of the Tagliamento won endnrlnr distinction. "The Tngllnniento pusses no Important cities of Venetln. The most important of the small towns that squat upon Its marshy hanks are Venzone, 20 miles hy rail from the Austro-Itallan frontier; Splllmborgo and Latlsana. The lastnamed is equidistant from Venice and Trieste on the 100-mile railway whifch connects these two Important cities. The Ta pi la men to flows IP miles to the west of Udlne, the first Italian city of Importance to fall before the onrushing Teutonic forces in the present offensive. "In ancient times the TagllampntO was known as Tilaventus. "The Livenzn, like the Tapllamento, is one of many streams which rise In the Carnlc Afps and flow through the delta region of Venetia. Its course is not more than seventy-flve miles in length, but it has numerous tributaries, chief among those on the east being the Meduna, the Flume and the Sile, while the Montlcano and the Meschla are affluents of the west bank. The point at which the lAvenza mingles ltjg waters with the Adriatic la only 21W miles northeast of Italy's priceless Jewel city, Venice. "The plain lying between the parallel courses of the Tapllamento and the Livenzn is dotted with Italian towns of great historic and art interest. Chief among these are Pordenone, probably the Pontus Naonis of the ancients, but now many miles from the sea; Portograms. San Vlto. Azznno?nnd the ruins of Concordia Snpgittarla, the ancient i Itomnn military station." Work and Play. Variation of typos of work properly adjusted will often substitute for what is generally known as play, says the New York Times. For instance, one's brain center may become weary at a monotonous occupation, and a decided change of occupation, notwithstanding it be what we usually call work, will permit the first brain center involved to rest while another works. But wf/j come back to the fact that what most .people regard as play is an occupation that they are not required to perform, and, it would seem from a psychological standpoint to give greater rest if' it be an occupation that is particularly useless from the standpoint of producing economic results. Therefore there should he time'set aside in the work of the day, no matter whether it be varied or not, when the environment may he changed and play should be taken up. Did Hard "Bit" for Flag. After going without tobacco several weeks, so the money could be tised to purchase a large American flag, the old inmates of the Hempstead (L. I.) poor farm recently had the pleasure of seeing the colors break from the flagpole in front of the only home they IrnntiT Some of the men are eighty-five years old and the loss of their tobacco was a great hardship. The old fellows talked of the deeds they had seen done for the colors in the Civil war and heard of In the Revolutionary war, as they planned the pleasure that was to be theirs. The overseers of the poor, Daniel J. Morrison had Frank Hainmlll, after the flag raising, gave #tl>e patriotic old men fine cigars and they started to muke up for the lost smokes. The Blue Cross. The Rlue Cross fund was organized In 1012 In Constantinople by Lad\ Lowther, the wife of the British anv hassador In Turkey at that time. Al the beginning the fund was used foi tho Balkan wars and at the beginning of this war was turned over to tht British and French governments tr. work In co-operation with their army veterinary corps and was Immediately accepted.

(Corre- | spondence of the Associated Press)? "Every interest in Alaska should have the fostering care of the country, so that its development may be d rounded and not partial," Secretary tl Redfield declared today in a letter to S Governor Thomas Riggs, Jr., outlin- a ing important work planned by the p Department of Commerce for the benefit of the territory. _ An essential preliminary to the development of Alaska, Secretary Redfield said, is that Alaskan waters ^ should be made safe for navigation ^ and he pledged the continuous services of the Coast and Geodetic Survey to that end. The hope of Alaska to have a coast dotted with fishing villages is regarded with especial favor by the department, which will 0 lend its efforts to bring this about, d Mr. Redfield also pointed out the pos- u sibility of establishing a shipyard in E Alaska and said that if such an enterprise were in operation now, thel" government would be glad to have it ? L..J1J J * * " * " uunu two oi iour launches needed for the Fisheries Service. Extension of the facilities for car- ^ rying on the work of the Coast Sur- r( vey, Bureau of Lighthouses and Bu- P reau of Fisheries is planned by the ^ Department, including new vessels for each. A new district for the Steamboat Inspection Service has j, been made necessary by the growth a of the work in the northwest and t< headquarters probably will be opened at Portland or Seattle. Plans are being made for salmon culture and for experiments with neglected spe- ~ cies of fish foods by establishing a fisheries experiment station on Puget ^ Sound. Secretary Redfield wrote: ^ "The rich aquatic resources of S1 Alaska have not heretofore received the attention they deserve. One or two fisheries of great importance have overshadowed others. Yet these more or less neglected fishes are val- d uable food products and are the very b ones which have made other coun- p tries prosperous. We have under- tl taken a campaign to introduce into wider popular use the valuable food fishes of Alaska hitherto largely neglected. "Coincident with the resumption of d commercial sealing on the Pribilof S Islands, the Department for the first p time in the history of those Islands o: is making use of the by-products of the sealing industry. A reduction plant has been sent to the Islands ^ there Will henceforth be a large ^ ahd\valuable output of oil and ferti- ^ 1 i ?nr T^nao om ^" ??W. A iivov ui v UV/tll III ^ICUt ucmand and will never again be utterly wasted as in the past. __ "In my recent visit to the Pacific northwest it was more than once suggested as a hope that the coast of Alaska might be dotted with fishing o villages, each pursuing a prosperous C local industry and each contributing tl to the Nation's food supply and wealth. It is our earnest hope that this may come to pass and the De- (j partment of Commerce will willingly ( lend its efforts to bringing this about, "The Department realizes, however, that no country can safely depend permanently upon any one single overshadowing industry or occupation. In diversity lies security. Every interest in Alaska should have (j ^e fostering care of the country so ?p that its development may be rounded p and not partial. Before the shores tl of Alaska, however, can be covered aa they ought to be with the vessels bringing to and from her ports the commerce that is their due, the wa- ^ tera of Alaska must be made safe and this means that the surveys of ^ many traits and arms must be worked out so that the navigator shall know how to avoid the perils that ~ now threaten him. To this important task the services of the Coast and Geodetic Survey shall be continuous- {j ly devoted." j, SAID THE WORKMAN C TO THE SOLDIER a I Said the workman to the soldier as his ship put out to sea: "While you're over there for free- j5 dom you can safely bank on me, f I'll be just as brave as you are, in a t] snfer sort of way, And I'll keep producing, going every minute of the day." d Said the soldier to the workman as ;y ship put out to sea: L "111 be true to you, my brother, if a you'll just be true to me. p Now we've got to work toirether, it's my job to bear a gun, But it's yours to keep on toiling if r we're going to lick the "Ilun." Said the workman to the soldier: "I d will back you to the last, T No more strikes for higher wages t till the danger time is passed." n Said the soldier to the workman: 0 "I'm for you and you're for me, How we understand each other, let the ship put out to sea."
