largest. the best and the only
sworn detailed circulation of each

bined.
THE SUNDAY STAR, viewed
separately. has the largest, the
best and the only sworn circula-
tion in the District of Columbia.
Fifteen thousand of THE
STARS regular subscribers take
no other Washington PAPER

vertising field, reaching all
classes of Washington pur-

branches of the government. and in that
the carnival would be unique.
This is matter nat every one can
take hold Of Every one can do some
thing in flower festival Every one
who has horse and trap can at least
trim the reins with flowers. and 1t is
possible to obtain some splendid effects
very simply. A festival such as the
Los Angeles people hold every year
would boom Washington with a vim.
This is one of the .livest' ideas l have
heard of in a long time, and as far as
the Chamber of Commerce is concerned.
j believe it will throw all its influence
toward making a carnival a hugh sue
cess.
"A flower carnival is one of the things
In which women and children can shine
-on account of their great beauty. Some
of the beautiful women of Washington
would certainly add to the attractiveness
of a carnival on the speedway. Those
who drive could arrange their carriages
into a bower of flowers, and make other
cities jealous.
Wouldn't it be great to head the pro-
cession of floats and carriages with a
mounted band?"
Proposes a Whole Week.
Il not only think floral carnival for
Washington is one of the greatest ideas
j have heard of recently, but I think
that Washington could not do better than
enthusiastic expression from Arthur c.
Moses.
Not only would / do everything I can
to make a carnival here something that
the country would admire in the loudest
and warmest terms, but I'd get into 1t
myself and try as hard as / can to make
my decorations the best in the whole car
nival.
why, If such a thing is arranged on
the grand and beautiful scale capable of
being undertaken here in Washington a
hundred thousand people will come to
Washington to see the great show. The
entire country will be talking of it. We
have chance here to prove our worth
and to make the first floral carnival finer
and bigger and more beautiful than any
of those i'm the south and west. Suppose
we had week OF festival. we would have
the whole country coming to us. l would
like nothing better than to see Washing
ton take up this idea and push 1t right
through to a splendid and beautiful cli-

How a Submarine Dives.

All submarine vessels are brought to
condition of readiness to submerge
by taking in water ballast In suitably
arranged and controlled tanks. This
causes more of the boat to sink below
the waters surface and finally leaves
her with only a small part of her con-
ming tower out of water. The remain
ing part above water represents what
is called reserve buoyancy." This
buoyancy varies generally from 200 to
1000 pounds, depending upon the size
of the craft. and 1t is to overcome the
permanent tendency to rise represent
ed by this reserve that pressure is
brought to bear upon the submerging
rudders or the hydroplanes In order to
make the boat sink after she Is once
put In motion. 1t is the height out of
water or reserve Of buoyancy Of the
submersible which gives her her su
perior sea keeping qualities. which per
mits the vessel to be driven safely Oh
the surface at higher rates Of speed
and which contributes in other ways
to the efficiency. the habitability and
the military value of the craft.-Har-

Il Worked Out Badly.

There is such n thing as carrying
the discount business too far, as the
smart advertising agent of new pub
lication discovered
"AS | understand" said the mer-
chant. "your rate is 500 page for Il
single insertion and you deduct l per
cent from this rate for each additional
insertion?'
THAT is correct" replied the agent.
"The total rate decreases by l per
cent for each insertion contracted for
after the first" he went on to explain.
IF you agree to take 1t ten times
there will be nine insertions after the
first and you will get 8 per cent off
the rate. In other words. you will
only have to pay $3.50 each time"
"The idea commends itself to me-"
said the merchant thoughtfully, "and
If you will stick to that plan will be
glad to make contract with you to
use a full page for 101 consecutive is
sues"
The agent was jubilant until he
thought it over. Then he wasn't. This
discount business can be carried too
far.-Exchange.
