the Sirdar'S huge funnel. The north
west section of the reef was bare.
Among the wrcckage he found n coil
of stout rope and II pulley. He Instant

an aerial line to ferry the chest Of tea
across the channel he had forded.
He threaded the pulley with the rope
and climbed the tree, adding a touch
Of artistic completeness to the ruin of

fastened the pulley high up the trunk

Recoiling the rope ends, he cast them
across to the reef. In such small ways

Picking up the AK, he carelcssly
stepped into the water, not knowing
that Iris, having welded the inciplent

to the beach and was watching him.
The water was hardly above his

out like a lasso and gripped his right

Americas Smart Set"

In our more primitive days the
schoolmaster was counted as the
"smarteSt" person in the community
where he labored. He could teach, Of
course, preach sometimes, too. lie
could lecture and generally couldsing.
Some of the fraternity could play, and
all could work outdoors in a pinch at
farming or numbering. II 1t came to
that the SchoolmaSter could thrash the
village bully and other obstreperous
grown-ups. Unless things are atogeth-
cr out of Joint the teacher OF today Is
relatively as smart as in the past.
And how the number has grown. There
are over three-quarterS of Il million
men and women engaged in various
| branches of instruction in this country
today in the schools alone. That
makes smart set worth consider
ing.
! 1t is as true now as IL was in the
past that in the popular mind teacher
will know" every puzlling question
and teacher can do" whatever is
worth doing. AS rule, teachers are
not smart at money grabbing, but that
/ is no evidence tnat they fail to get
great good out of life, while the public
thrives on their talents. A simple
life" is their lot, but they think nobly
and act well. With ambitions higher
than mere money making, they may be

them in material achievements. Now
that the land is rich, the standards OF
living and the cost of preparation for
teachers higher, they should not bt

RfMARKaBLE OCEAN RACE.
Two ocean liner. Never More Iban Sss, Five Miles Apart. 0as

New York, Jan. 5.After nine days of sailing in close company across the Atlantic ocean, the steamers Graf Wal- 1ersee of the Hamburg American line and Cassel of the North German Lloyd line arrived at this port to-day with the former leading by two hours. The two ships came out of the English channel December 26 in company and during the entire passage were never more than five miles apart. First one and then the other would take the lead until they hal changed positions half a dozen times. Part of the time they. steamed side by side with passengers shouting messages across by mega phone. The Cassel was in the lead Tuesday night when the blizzard struck the two ships and both reduced their speed. During the gale of that night and the following morning the Graf Waldersee crept ahead and reach- ed Sandy Hook bar two hours before her rival. The ships docked not more than half an hour apart.
 Captain Krech of the Graf Walder- see said that in the thirty eight years of his sea service he had never seen or heard of so remarkable a contest.
