Mrs. J. W. Robbins, Miss Jessie
Towne and Miss Nell Ryan form, the
advisory board of the -Girls Service
organization, composed for the most
part ot Camphre Girls.
The Misses Ruth Hatteroth, Vir
ginia White and Anne Axtell acted
as registrars in the Red Cross head
quarters the last week, enrolling hun
dreds of young girls in the city for
service in war relief work. Their first
activitv begins tomorrow in the can
vass of every home in Omaha in the
interest of the food conservation
pledges.
After this drive they will co-ordi
nate for other forms of patriotic work,
such as forming auxiliaries to make
scrap books, knitted garments and
hospital supplies. ,
woman's committee of the National
Council of Defense, issued a plea to
club women of America to "get be
hind Hoover" in the food economy
movement, she said:
"The women of America have been
called to the colors. The highest oa
triotic duty we can render under the
present circumstances is to set the
example of right living and self-sac
rifice. I earnestly plead with the
women of the nation to 'get behind
Hoover," sign the food pledge and
get others to do likewise.
Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker. former
president ot the American federation
of Womens Clubs, call the food
problem a woman a solemn dutv. In
her address at the speakers training
camp tor education nv patriotic serv
ice, July 6, at Chautauqua, N. Y., she.
said:
It becomes the solemn duty of
every woman to keen before her th
tact that this lood campaign is not
one of short duration. As long as
the war lasts, we must 'stand by our
guns;'' we must remember that for
every man who goes to the front five
people at home are needed to sustain
him. Above all things, we must let
it be known that no woman has the
right to buy in large quantities and
hoard food for the use of her family.
Some one has well said that 'such a
woman is at heart a traitor.'
There was never greater need for
women to be sane than at this hour.
There is no excuse for excitement or
for hysteria. If our men are to give
the best that is in them we must keep
the atmosphere of our homes sweet
and serene. Remember, no sacrifice
is a great sacrifice unless it is made
cheerfully. Let there be no weeping;
no complaining, n6 lamentation, when
our loved ones answer the call to
duty."
THE bugle cry to arms has been
sounded and tomorrow morning
" Omaha housewives will be sum
moned to service in the national food
conservation crusade. Omaha women,
who have come forward to meet the
wartime exigencies with such spontan
eity, unselhshness and a perception
of . the realities of the situation as
keen as that of the men, may be de
pended upon to rally to the cause
and help Commander-in-Chief Herbert
Hoover rout gaunt hunger from our
nation.
With wheels oiled for the drive, the
local committee, headed by Mrs. H
C. Sumney, and the "Give Service"
girls, under the supervision of the
Camphre advisory board, which in
eludes Mrs. J. W. Robbins, Miss
Jessie Towne and Miss Nell Ryan,
will canvass this week every highway.
byway, nook and cranny of the resi
dence districts, asking at least 50,000
housewives to sign the food pledge
cards. These cards will be returned
to the canvassers when signed, and
sent together by express to the food
administrator to prove to the govern
ment that Omaha women are ready to
help weld the feminine forces for the
country.
It has been estimated that if each
housewife will save 6 cents a day on
meals, the housewives of the nation
will save the vast sum of $2,000,000.

conservation platform and the "clean

A point necessary to be remem
bered by overenthusiastic ecp.iomists
is "to' save wisely, but not too well,"
for unless the housewife eliminates
and substitutes intelligently, and with
a knowledge of food values, she may
bring disastrous results upon her
family.'

This is the busiest summer on rec
ord for the Omaha chapter of the
Daughters of the American Revolu
tion. At the last of a series of three
meetings at the Country club Friday
afternoon it was voted to give 100
short stories and clippings to the
Navy league. This is in addition to
an endowment of $500 for a bed in an
American convalescent hospital in
France, and the hosptal supplies and
knitted garments which are being
made. .
The next three meetings will be
held at the Feld club' on Tuesday,
when Mrs. Philip Potter will act as
hostess.
Mrs. A. V. Shotwell, who is In
charge of the benefit bridge parties
every week, offered to donate all pro
ceeds to the hospital supply depart

day was changed from Friday until
Tuesday, and members of the Omaha
chapter may ether play bridge or

More than 8,000 hospital supplies
are ready for shipment from the
Daughters of the American Revolu

it was decided to organize a national
Not until the present European
conflict, when the eyes of the world
are centered on the death-dealing
submarine (that greatest menace to
water travel), has much attention
been given to its origin and the grad
ual development fronj the first rude
ly constructed craft to the finished
and powerful submarines of today.
Submarines were known as early
as Alexander the Great and were nu
merous in the thirteenth, fourteenth
and seventeenth centuries. In 4779
Day, an English mechanic, perished
in Plymouth harbor, in a submarine
of his own invention. Many articles
have appeared from time to time, at
tributing the invention of the sub
marine to various men. But to an
American, a Connecticut Yankee,
David Bushnell, belongs the honor of
inventing the submarine torpedo. He
was born in Westbrook, Conn.i then
a part of historical old Saybrooke. on
August 30, 1740. His father, Nehe
miah, was a farmer of small means
and David worked on the little farm
until he grew to manhood. The en
vironments being distasteful to one
of his temperament, and realizing the
importance of a liberal education, he i
prepared for college under the tutel
age of the village rector, Rev. Mr.
Devotional, and was graduated from
Yale in 1775 with honor, commanding
the highest respect of professors and
students.
During his college life his busy
brjjn had planned the torpedo sub
marine, which was completed and in
action in 1776. This first craft was a
crude affair, but contained all the es
sential elements of the submarine of
today.
Handicapped by lack of means,
Bushnell made personal visits to
Washington, appealing for aid. Ben
jamin Franklin was greatly interest
ed and both he and Silas Deane
helped to finance the scheme. Being
unable to buy first class material,
Bushnell made frequent visits to ship
building yards, where he obtained
damaged lumber at a small cost; of
this the "Turtle" was secretly built,
so named from its shape. This novel
craft was about seven feet high and
six feet in length; the operator sitting
upright with his head in a conning
tower. It was propelled by the feet,
guided bv an oar, made on the prin
ciple of the screw. The paddles re
sembled those of a windmill. When
turning the wheel one way the boat
was sent ahead and when reversed
it would go backward. A wheel at
the top raised or lowered the boat
at will of the operator. Sufficient air
was stored for about thirty minutes;
phosphorous was the only light. At-i

tached to the stern of the boat was a
magazine containing 150 pounds of
powder which would float under the
ship attacked, and explode by means
of a time fuse, giving the operator
time to escape to a place of safety.
The first attack was made under
Lord Howe's fleet, anchored off Stat
en Island. Ezra Bushnell (David's
brother) had been especially drilled
for this perilous expedition, but being
ill at this time, Ezra Lee was selected
by General Putnam to take his place.
Lee, in the gloom of the night
underwater journey, actually got
under the British fleet and attempted
to attach the screw under his maj
esty's ship Eagle, but failed on ac
count of striking a metal plate, dull
ing his screw. Daylight coming on,
and finding that he was discovered,
he detached the powder magazine,
timed the fuse and threw it out upon
the water, hastening on his return
trip. The magazine exploding with I
great violence, sending a huge body I
of water- in the air, turned his pur
suers back in confusion and alarm. !
and not knowing the nature of the at- 1
tack the fleet scattered. ,lhis was
called " a bloodless victory." Float
ing torpedoes and "the battle of the
Keys" were also of Bushnell's inven
tion. It is on record in the State
Historical society that Silas Deane,
after one of his visits to the old
homestead remarked: "I truly believe
that th's young man is inspired from
above for this underaking."
For nearly a century no progress
was'made in the development of this
science and no recognition was made
of Bushnell's genius. As late as 1914
the government first paid honor to
his genius in a "faint and feeble way"
by naming a submarine tender "Bush
nell." Shall brave Ezra Lee be thus
honored? During our civil war a num
ber of boats resembling submarines
were called "Davids" by the confed
erates, whether in honor of David
Bushnell, the writer of this does not
know. It is a well known fact that
wideawake Germany built its first
submarine as late as 1906. Now the
waters are swarming with these ter
rors. The unfortunate issue of Bush
nell's undertakings made him very
despondent and being of a sensitive
nature, to escape ridicule, he secret!
left the country and was lost to his
family for over twenty years. Return
ing, he settled in Georgia, or one of
the southern states, where he prac
ticed medicine and surgery under the
assumed name of Dr. Bush. Bushnell
remained a bachelor and was some

David Bushnell was the ereat-great-
uncle of Mrs. Eliza Bushnell Moore,
wife of Dr. R. C. Moore of Omaha.
