LIQUID FUEL TO MAKE
HORNET FLEET FASTER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.--It is ex-
pected that the torpedoboat destroy
ers which are next to be built for the
navy, will make a speed OF 80 knots
an hour and will burn OIL. The speed
OF the latest destroyers authorized Is
% knots an hour and 1t Is believed
this can be increased to so by burning
oil. The adoption OF liquid fuel re-
auires provision for It's storage and Its
distribution for boats upon which 1t Is
consumed. This will still leave the
American navy five knots behind It's
English rival In point OF speed for this
class OF boats.

above-will probably make record from the
business standpoint. Each succeeding year
brings growth In the demand for better class

English maker is awakening to the possibility
of big business in this direction.

phase of Toyland may undergo
change. Games bid fair to become extremely

At moment when the toy industry in France

mechanical ingenuity. Never has this been
more noticeable than in the novelties which the
manufacturers are preparing for the coming
holidays.

to offer the little ones such simple things as
our childhood knew; and the wooden doll and
