New* Governess: “Don’t you like that poem, “Twinkle, twinkle little star, how I wonder what yon are?” Little Waldo: “No. Why wonder about the elements of a star when a simple spectrum analysis will solve the question?” CANADIAN SAILORS MAN HORNET BOATS Wartime needs for security have prevented much being'written about the deeds of young Canadian officers serving with the Royal Navy in British waters. In motdr torpedo boats and gunboats they pu.t out from their bases “to seek out and engage the enemy”.. German E- boats, minesweepers, destroyers, and even a cruiser and two battleships have been engaged by “sea-hornets” in which Canadian officers are ser­ ving. Following is a description of the work of these officers, show­ ing their instant readiness to fight . . . and how they fight. By Lieut. E. H, Bartlett, R.C.N.V.R. For one word, it produced an im­ mense flurry of action. Three Canadian naval officers were sitting before a fire in a room at an English naval base, enjoying a before-bedtime chat. They were Lieutenants J. D. Maitland and J.( A. McCutcheon of Vancouver and C. Burk, of Montreal. The chat was broken by a peremp­ tory knock at the door. A girl at the Women’s Royal Naval Service called out: “Immediate.” Action was instantaneous. Two of the officers, without apology or explanation, bolted from the room to their own, nearby. The third, the owner of the room, started to strip even before the door had open­ ed for their departure. With prac­ tised speed he donned heavy wool­ len underwear, thick sweaters and flannel trousers, sea-boot stockings and wool-lined leather boots. A canvas coat, reaching to his knees and a woollen toque and he was dressed . . . dressed foi* the action with the enemy which that one word “1%mediate” had promised. Blocking EnOmy Ports In other “cabins” brother offi­ cers had imitated his actions. In a matter of minutes they were as­ sembling in the hall of the officers’ quarters ready to operate some of the deadly “mosquito craft” which counter the hit-and-run tactics of the German E-boats and share in the task of blocking the enemy ports. “Mosquito craft” is rather an out- of-date title for the motor torpedo boats and the motor launches of this war. Rather may they be term­ ed the hornets of the sea, for there are sunken enemy craft to Trove. And, like hornets, they are always in readiness to swarm to .the at­ tack. The word “immediate” set their base humming like a hornets’ nest. While some of the officers went to their boats, the commanding offi­ cers gathered at the operations room' to await final orders and gain as clear a picture as possible of what had called them into instant readi­ ness. There was action at sea. Some of their boats, outnumber­ ed, were engaging an enemy E-boat unit. They had reported the fact by wireless. Such actions are swift and fur­ ious. The sea-hornets are the fast­ est craft afloat, and action can spread over miles of sea in the course of minutes. Against the pos­ sibility that* the action might spread in their direction, and give them a chance to join in, the boats and their crews were standing by. Chance for Action In the operations room the com­ manding officers were greeted by the officer in charge. “Sorry -to call you chaps out,” said the operations officer, “but there’s an off-chance we might have a spot of action.” 4 On the walls of the small room in which stood his watch, beflag- ged charts were the only decora­ tion. There was a desk, two tele­ phones, table, with a few papers. One easy chair before a small fire, a bed, not slept in that night and, to complete the furnishings, a couple of chairs. A .room not for comfort—a room as coldly efficient as the men who .use it. “This is the picture,” said the oper­ ations officer, and told Of the in­ terception by “some of our chaps” of a much larger enemy unit. He gave the figure. He gave the posi­ tion where the engagement started. “So far,” the report concluded, “that’s’ all we know. You’d bet­ ter sit down, and we’ll get some tea.” A Canadian officer sidled toward .the bed and, removing his canvas coat, qpickly stretched full length upon it. He’s an experienced cam­ paigner and knows how to make the most of every moment of rest. Everyone Relaxes An English lieutenant stretched himself in the easy chair. In a matter of moments he was asleep. The others found their .own meth-, ods of relaxation. The ringing of the telephone, however, brought them quickly to the alert. The operations officer took the message, his face unread­ able and his Only comment a “Thank you” as it concluded. “Another signal through,” he told them. “It reads, ‘Enemy driv­ en southward. Am chasing.” “Good show, what?” said the Canadian, who has gained some of the English idiom although he has lost nothing of his own accent. “They’ve got a good moon for it, should get some of them,” add­ ed the senior officer of the unit, a Royal Naval lieutenant. Square- jawed, steady-eyed, he had shown no sign of relaxing during the per­ iod of waiting. There was another settling down, broken once more by the tele­ phone’s ring, chased Them Homo “No further contacts. Stopped off ...” read the signal this time. The port Off which the British Craft had stopped was an enemy port. ' The English officer murmured' commendation: “Chased the so-and- so’s right back home.” “It looks as if you could go home, too,” broke in the operations offi­ cer, “there just isn’t going to be any fun for you tonight.” The original force, outnumbered as it had been, had handled the situation without need of assist­ ance. From a Canadian officer, (Lieu­ tenant George F. Duncan, R.C.N. V.R., Montreal) came the other ' view of the picture, when, on his return to his base he told of the action. Before the war he had been a chartered accountant. Before the war, too, he had seen the need of preparing for it and, as an officer in the supplementary reserve in Montreal, had taken preliminary training. In Great Britain, shortly’ after the outbreak of war, that train­ ing had been intensified with spec­ ial attention to what would fit him for work with the sea-hornets. His account of the action was concise to the point of baldness. They Laid No Mines ' “Quite a straightforward affair,” he declared. “We were out on an ordinary patrol, and these Jerries came out to lay mines. So we went into them. Opened up with all we had and saw one of them burst into flames, although he got them out pretty quickly, I must say. It was a short affair, for they turned tail right away and streaked back for home. We chased after them, but couldn’t get- contact again. There was quite a bumpy sea, and that didn’t help. However, we didn’t do them any good because we managed to get quite a few hits. And what is more, they didn’t lay ■any of their ruddy mines, either. CLAIMS PRODUCT 1 | AIDS TIRE HFE Maker of Product to Protect Rubber Tells of Recent Tests Now available throughout the Province of Ontario is a new liquid that has proved by laboratory tests, made by the United States Testing Co., to increase the life of tires by about 25 per cent. This product is ■known as Rubber-Life. Introduc-' ed in the United States after that country entered the war, it has re­ ceived wide acceptance from motor­ ists, taxicab, truck and bus opera­ tors and reports from Quebec and the Maritime Provinces, where it is widely distributed, indicate that the American success is being dup­ licated there. Acording .to Louis A. Sendel, vice-president of Rubber-Life Co., Ltd., the formula was first evolved in 1928 by two European rubber experts. There they marketed it in major centres with the idea of ex­ panding their field ■ to America at such time as the European dis­ tribution was complete. But with the event of war they were com­ pelled to flee their country and emigrate to the United States. With them came their formula and from then on it was simply a matter of arranging for manufacture and sales outlets. 'Only recently have they decided to export it to Canada and With that decision came Mr. Sendel’s appointment as operating head of the Canadian distributing company. - .Rubber-Life, manufactured en­ tirely of materials non-essential to war industries, ‘is a greenish liquid ’ which, when applied to tires, pene­ trates the millions of minute pores in the rubber and strengthens the surface; thus giving tires more durability and resistance to the ab­ rasive action of rubber against road­ ways. © The application of Rubber-Life is simplicity itself, states Mr. Sen- del. There a^e only two things to do: clean tires carefully, then apply Rubber-Life with a brush. Allow- to dry for about an houi’ and that’s all there is to it. Each application is effective for 500 miles of driv­ ing. That no possible damage can be done to tires through the ;use of Rubber-Life is attested by the fact that the product contains no acids, alcohol - or any material which would in any way injure or reduce the elasticity of rubber, he said. This claim, he added, has also been subjected to rigid tests | made by independent laboratories.
