A Yokohama dispatch highlights Japanese devotion through a 15 year old sister’s letter urging courage for the army.

Lighting a Pipe in a Wind Sportsman's Device
A New York sportsman recalls paddling Sebec Lake in a birch-bark canoe when wind kept matches from lighting. An old Californian crumpled newspaper into a wad, shielded the flame with hands, and the burning paper lit the pipe and served as tinder, a practical remedy for windy conditions.
