WANTS CEMENT
SCHOOL HOUSES

Charles s. Howe president of the Case
School of Applied Sciences. of Cleveland,
Ohio, one of the leading engineering
schools of the west, on a recent public
occasion stated, according to Cement
portant historically, because 1t had been
known for thousands Of years through
great masterpieces of art and architec-
ture, but not until recent years was much
known of the chemistry of cement and
concrete, which have now become the
great structural materials. While this
country had been backward In its use
until comparatively recent years, Ameri-
can energy and enterprise have become
thoroughly applied to the subject, with
the result that a vast quantity of cement
Is now manufactured, thus making its use
a subject of exereme Importance to all
classes, owing to economic considerations.
He predicted that cement would be the
great building material of the future, not
only because of its durability, but owing
to it's fire-proof qualities. AS an educator.
he regretted that all school houses were
not constructed of cement, as there has
recently been occasion to deplore the use
of infiammable material. 1t Is estimated
that we spend 81, 900, 100000 for building
per year while our loss by fire represents
$500, 900, DOC, 900. This is false economy He
called attention to the necessity of having
substitute for our almost exhausted
lumber supply, which, it is estimated,
will practically disappear in from 20 to 81
years at the present rate of consumption.
This substitute must consist largely of

GOODNESS AND HER0ISM

Vigorously arraigning the critics of

Evans pays notable tribute to the eff
cheney and bravery of American gunners.

American ships have been saved from

Bob declares:
When the powder began to blaze in
the handling room of the Missouri, two
gunners' mates NJ. Momssen and c. s.
Schepke, who were in the magazine, at
the imminent risk of their lives, pre-
vented the flames from reaching the
powder there. This historic disregard of
their own safety was the mircale that
saved the ship. Why not call it by it's
proper name? 1t was the prompt action
of brave, cool-headed sailor men in blue
shirts that saved the ship, and If they
were miracles, then the navy I am proud
to say, is full of miracles. Those mira

story thereto pertaining are familiar to
everyone 1t was a kind of infirmity that
would have been held sacred by men of
delicate feeling. For Douglas Jerrold 1t

Mr.. Spielmann, the historian of Punch,
has rescued from past records two stories
illustrative of Jerrold's humor. One tells
how, Thackeray having applauded Dicky
Doyle's action in retiring from the staff on
account of attacks on the pope, someone
said, '"Thackeray's turning Roman

Douglas Jerold. On another occasion,
coming in late to dinner, Thackeray ex-
planned he had been at the christening of
a friends child. Good Lord, Thackerayr
exclaimed the genial Jerrold, Il hope you
didn't present the child with your own

We heritors of the legacy bequeathed
by the makers of Punch never say rude
things like that under the mahogany tree

He began a series of papers entitled Miss

they did not care to have any more.
Thackeray survived the rebuff and soon
came to be one of The most voluminous
and most priced among contributors He
worked both with pen and pencil, having
in this connection, as In the wider field
of fiction, an appreciative fancy for him

one of his earliest ambitions was to Illus

and made agreat hit. Another success
was the "Diary of Mr.. Yellowplush.v
Other literary contributions that helped
to the making of Punch, and live through

came about in this way-and I believe
this was the first one ever seen and rec
ognized as a danger in our navy" adds
the Admiral. 'I was standing over the
after 1S-inch turret of my flagship, the
Kentucky, watching the fire of her 49,
inch guns at target practice in Manila
bay. Many shots had been fired, when
suddenly, as one of the guns was dis
charged a sheet of fame shot up through
an opening in the top of the turret. This
was so unusual. and to me alarming
that l ordered the firing to cease until
1 could ascertain the cause of 1t. The
officers and men all wished to go on with
the firing, not realizing that they were
in any danger, though some of the men
in the turret were slightly burned about
the body and had their hair singed.
"Of course our experience in Manila
bay was fully reported to the Navy de-
partment, and the Chief of Ordnance
took steps at once to put proper gas
electors on the guns which would act
automatically when the breach was
opened. From that day to this there has
been a steady improvement In the fitting
and working of this device, and I feel
perfectly confident that If it is properly
and carefully used. there will never be
another fare back"
Speaking of ammunition hoists, con-
corning which there has been so much
misunderstanding and bitter controversy,
and to which the explosion on the Mis-
souri, was attributed, Admiral Evans
says
when the Indiana and ships of her
class were Designed all foreign ammu-
milton hoists for turret guns were con-
structed on the principle that the arnmu-
milton should go straight from the hand
ling room to the gun in the turret. In
some cases, the English for example,
this was accomplished by the use of a
closed tube or cylinder, but this plan re-
quired that the gun should be returned
to a certain fixed position before load
ing, which was serious handicap to
rapid firing, and our designers discarded
1t In favor of the open car hoist, which
revolved with the turret and allowed the
guns to be loaded in any position. The
advantage thus gained was so apparent
that foreign practice soon followed ours
In an effort to overcome the very OBJ
jectionable feature of having to bring
the guns to a fixed position before they
could be loaded, and the English finally,
in 1904, installed on two battleships am
munition hoists which were in every es-
sential particular counterparts of the
American hosts.
"Other nations have, as a rule, fol-
lowed the same general plan; that is to
Sdy, Il Straight away ammunition HOlSl
for turret guns, from the handling room
to the guns, the handling room being
centrally located with reference to the
magazines and shell rooms, and sepa-

zines are provided with efficient means
for quick flooding, in case of fire. and
