went to one side, the coast guard
cutter Wissabickon to the other,
and the harbor police boat Lan-1
nan brought up the rear to pre
vent undue crowding by the small
fleet jof launchers that followed.
Annstpolis, "30 miles south of
here, reported that the Deutsch
land passed there at 8:45 o'clock
steaming about 12 miles an hour.
The tug Timmins alone was coa-
voying and but one vessel was
following, a newspaper dispatch
boat. Weather conditions at that
time were favorable.

The Deutschland passed Solo

mins was at her side off the port

Captain Koenig and his crew
of 27 men put to sea with the
knowledge that a man hurried to
a telepke with a message to
areata fer the Eateate Allies
that the Deutschland had started.
They knew how long he had
watched at a nearby pier day
and night, hut the little captain
went out of Baltimore smiling
and waving his cap His last
words in the harbor were of praise
for A.merica and for the treatment
here by Baltimore customs auth

of ewstoata, he saia: "We came

We fro back certain that the
friendliest of feeling exists in
America for Germany. You have
been more thaia courteous and the
Fatherland will not forget it." '
Captain Koenig knows that
eight warships of the Entente
Allies are waiting for him at the
edge of the three mile limit,
spread out in a radius of five
miles.
"We shall have to pass unseen
within that radius in order to es
cape," he said. u We shall have
to make that passage under con
ditions not entirely advantageous
to us. With the water at that
Lgpint 150 feet deep it would be

ly enough to pass underneath the
warships. But the water there is
not 150 feet deep. We shall,
therefore, hare to pass between

Must Rear Children in Cathsfic Faith.
By Gilbert O. Nsticn?.
The toreg-oing- letter needs no
explanation. It is written on the
letterhead of the Board of Chil
dren's Guardians of the District
of Columbia, the letter is signed
by J. Lawrence Solly as agent of
the board. His name appears at
the upper left-hand corner of the
letter head as agent
Margaret and Thelma Phillips
mentioned in the letter are chil
dren of Milton L. Phillips, who
is very pronounced and active
Protestant and American citizen,
and his wife, Margaret M. Phil
lips, who was reared a Roman
Catholic. Mr. and Mrs. Phillips
were married by a Presbyterian
minister.
Without knowledge or consent
of Phillips and"while he was awav
from home at work for the sup
. - -
port of his family, hi wife per
mitted the children to be baptized
in the Ktman Catholic faith by
Roman Catholic priest.
1 ne wire s motner was accus
tomed to stay for several weeks
at a time in the Phillips home
On these extended visits she often
insisted that Phillips and his wife
were not lawfully married and
that they ought to be married by
a Roman Catholic priest
Exasperated at these statements
and other treatment received at
her hands, Phillips ordered her
to quit his home, and his wife
thereupon abandoned the home
also and went with the mother
about four years ago taking the
children with her. She has not
returned.
She dehveted the children into
the possession of a strange woman
and abandoued them. This
strange woman had Phillips ar-
rested for non-support of the
children and she delivered the
children into the custody of tke
juvenile court. The court said
he was committing- them to St
Ann s Infant Asylum After
some three years a niece of Phil-
hps, Mrs. John Ellison, asked the
Board of Children's Guardians
for the children, and they were
delivered to her about December
1915. On February 11, 1916
Mrs. Ellison received from J
Lawrence Solly, asrent for the
Board of Children's Guardians the
letter of that date which appears
above.
After the children were com
mitted to St. Ann's Phillips pai.d
for their support till that institu
tion told him they were not there
ancrthe authorities refused to let
him know the whereabouts of the
children, He- then refused to
make further payment unless in
formed where the children were
and permitted to visit and see
tbem. While the children were
in the custody of his niece, Mrs.
John Ellison aforesaid, he oaid
for their support and thus-relieved
the District of Columbia of that
burden
Pursuant to the threats and
warnings contained in the letter,
on July I 1916, an agent of the
Board of Children's Guardians
took the children away, and
Phillips has not been able since
that time to asctrtaia their
whereabouts.

FARM WITH TRACER AND FINISH Oil TIME
The reason why tractor farming isiproving so successful is that
with a tractor you can do your work when it should be done at
JUST THE BIGHT TIME.
An Avery tractor plowing outfit gives you a lot of power so con
centrated that one man or boy can operate it. It also furnishes
you power which weather conditions can not stop and power that
will work as long- as you want to run it dayandfl night if you desire.
A Tractor that is Built Right, Vith a Strong Com
pany Behind It.
In getting a tractor investigate all the facts about two things
the construction of the tractor itself and the Company that builds
it. Avery tractors are built right. They have low speed, strong
opposed motors with cylinders having removable inner walls. They
also have a special sliding frame transmission with straight spar
gears. They have two speeds, each speed a direct drive. Furth
ermore they are strongly guaranteed by a company, owning their
own large factory nnd many branch houses. This insures perma
nent service.
