BEAUL1Eu TEACHERS PICNIC

BEAULIEU TEACHERS PICNIC.
The Union school picnic held in Jno.
Reid's grove on the 21st, inst. was a
grand success.
There was upwards of twenty
teachers present, the majority Of whom
brought a goodly number of their little
charges along with them and many of
the school marms We're also in charge
themselves.
The program for the afternoon was
varied, amusing and instructive.
The arrangements was perfect, first
dinner was served to those who had
come from a distance.
Then game of base ball was played
between the boys of Melville school,
in charge of H. McKechnie and those
of Beaulieu school, in charge of T. G..
Thomson. The game was an interest
ing one and ended in victory for the
south boys. Following this was a
lengthy program of songs, reading and
recitations. Prof. Clark, of McMaster
university, Toronto, Ont, was pres
ent and made some very appropriate
remarks. President 2. Williams con-
tributed nosmall share to the general
+, cheerfulness of the program. After
this there were foot, hurdle and egg
races. While these sports were going
on some of the school marms with
several other willing hands were
spreading gigantic table with the
luxuries of the land which were so
literally provided by the ladies of the
community.
The pupils of Beaulieu school, under
T. G.. Thomson, next showed them
selves to be apt pupils in military tao
ticts. The able manner in which they
went through the drill was very credi-
table to them indeed.
After all had done ample justice to
their good appetites, a second base ball
match, between the Mclean team and
team selected from the teachers on
the ground, was begun but slight
shower checked it's progress after the
second innings, leaving the Mclean
boys few scores a head.
Besides the above mentioned amuse.
ments there was in operation on the
grounds; two swings, two set croquet,
shooting gallery, a fruit stand, and
''seats beneath the shade for talking
age and whispering lovers made -
We think that such move of socia.
bility and friendship as this should be
encouraged and supported not only by
the teachers but by all those who have
the social, moral and intellectual
development of the youthful minds al
heart.
There is first class job of painting
being done on the north and south
Beaulieu schools, by Mr.. Pelletie Of
Olga. Mr.. Pelletie solicits inspection
of his work. We think all persons
contemplating contract in painting
would do we'll to consult him.

New Torpedo Boats

1t has been practically settled
that the three new torpedo boats,
for which Congress has appropri-
ated s 45O,00O, shall be constructed
on the same plans as the Ericsson,
built at Dubuque, Iowa They
will be designed for a displace-
ment of 125 tons and a speed of
twenty-five knots. An entirely
new feature of the new vessels will
be an arrangement for launching
torpedoes from the deck instead Of
from the hold, as in the Ericsson.
Each boat will have three torpe-
does, one at the bow and one at
each side-Washington Star.

THE SCREW PROPELLER.
Parts Taken by Smith and Ericsson
in it's Invention.

The introduction of the screw pro-
peller into use was accomplished
simultaneously by Smith in England
and Ericsson in the United States
Both were men of great ability.
Each considered himself the inven-
tor of the screw propeller. Each
took out patents in England in 1856
and in the United States two or
three years afterward. Each patent
differed radically from the other.
Neither patent, for the general ap-
plication of the screw propeller, was
sustained either here or abroad. and
neither Smith or Ericsson patented
additional improvements on the
screw propeller Each built small
screw vessels IN England that were
successfully tried in 1887. Smiths
being Of six tons burden, with a
wooden screw, driven by a six horse
power engine, and Ericsson's, named
the Francis 3. Ogden, having double
the tonnage and power. Each built
larger screw vessels that were sue
cessfully tried in England in 1889.
Smiths vessel, the Archimedes, be
ing upward of 200 tons burden, and
driven by engines designed by Rem
MS, of 80 horse power, circumnavi-
gated the island of Great Britain III
May, 1910. Ericsson's vessel, the
Robert T. Stockton. smaller and with
less power, was tried in England
under steam, and then, In April,
1913, crossed the Atlantic under sail
Each introduced the screw propeller
on merchant vessels in 1910. Each
introduced the screw propeller on
war vessels liz 1913. Ericsson on the

CLAIMS.

In his letter of acceptance, Hon. G..
B. Matthews, Peoples party nominee
for governor of New York. uses this
language:
Eminent members of American and
English trusts, like ex Vice President
Morton, will doubtless claim that trusts
have cheapened or will cheaper prices
to consumers. Let no one believe for
a moment that trusts have any other
mission but to make money honestly
or dishonesty, fair or foul, and secure
all profits. Great suspicion should at
once fall on those who claim to be wise
and kind enough to assume ~autocratic
power in fixing fair prices at both ends
of the bargain doing justice by pro-
Queer and consumer alike"
If we grant that all trusts cheaper
the price of the products they place
upon the market, there would still be
dozens of Objectionable features, more
than enough to overcome any apparent
advantages brought about by low
prices. We don't want low prices.
Better that everything be high, the
price of each and every article being
in proportion to everything else. High
priced farm products are the life of
trade, makes high wages and makes
