Charity stamps" first used In

To take away the old fear of the

them into nice little meeting place.
where children have splendid time.
and incidentally learn more and better
lessons than children ever learned be-
fore, an entirely new experiment will
be tried which will result in an enor-
nous investment in new furniture. IL
the scheme Is shown to be practlca-
BILE
The idea is from the brains Of
Stephen z. Kramer, director OF inter-
mediate instruction, and John A.
Chamberlain, supervisor Of manual
training, and is brand new in school
circles
The scheme has to do with the 1T
tie stiff-legged desks which the chill
dren in the first and second grades
have studied at from the early times
when desks supplanted the old.fash-
ioned forms" The desks sit in rows,
formal and formidable, and the black
iron legs of the desks and the stiff
ness with which these little pieces of
furniture sit on the floor all add to the
strictness Of discipline which in these
latter days is beginning to be looked
upon as having disadvantages as well
as advantages.
Mr.. Kramer has devised little ta-
BILE desk, only a few pounds in weight,
which any firstgrade child can lift
UP and carry around the room. Mr..
Chamberlain drew the plans and
made the models A little chair goes
with each small table desk, and both
desk and chair can be picked up and
carried anywhere in the schoolroom.
When the teacher wants to tell them
a simple tale of how one and one
makes two, they will pick up their lit
tie chairs. push aside the desks and
sit around the teachers chair in a
very fascinating little family group.
The chairs and desks have rubber
tipped feet, so there will be little
noise.
In this way the teacher will get
right in among her children. When
she Is demonstrating at the black
board the little boys and girls will
bring their chairs and sit close to her.
AS everyone knows, the present
method Of having straight and stiff
lines Of desks and chairs makes 1t i'm
perative that some of the children will
have to sit far of in the back row.
The idea will gain favor, it is be-
lieved, and will also take away lit
tie of the first fear of the schoolroom
that small children have.-Washing-

Modern submarine boats are of two types the
submerged and the submergible. The submerged
when In light cruising condition moves with only
small percentage of the hull above the water;
the submergible cruises the surface much
like an ordinary torpedo boat which 1t resembles
externally. The difference in principle between
the two types is slight but In construction de-
tails 1t is very marked The submerged boats
are usually nearly cylindrical with pointed ends,
the general shape being much like that of
Whitehead torpedo. Submergence is effected by
admitting water to the ballast tanks or by means
of inclined rudders, both. Submergibe boats
have two hus, one inside the other. The outer
hull resembles closely that of the ordinary tor
pedo boat but has as few projections as possible
rising from the general outline, In order to pre-
sent smooth surface when submerged. Inside
this there Is second hull of nearly circular
cross-section and large as the shape of the
outer boat permits To effect submergence water
first admitted to the space between the hulls,
and this brings the boat to the 'awash" condi
ton. Further submergence is effected by permit

tne salmon, which made the coastwise from
lover TO Dundee, distance of 512 miles, and the
famous performance of the French submarine
Papln, which on one occasion made cruise of
l,20O miles. However, this French achievement
is overshadowed by the Salmon's cruise because
not only was the distance of the latter much
greater but 1t was open sea performance
whereas the Papin cruised along the coast and
hnally, the French vessel is much larger than
the new American record-breaker the Papin be-

Is OF but 800 tons displacement
The Salmon, alike to most Of the submarines
which have lately been added to the United
States navy, is development of the original
Holland type of submarine which first gave the
Americans the lead In this class of shipbuidng
The Salmon is 1876 feet in length by Ia feet beam
and is twin-screw boat being driven on the
surface by two gasoline engines OF 300 horse

of a specific remedy. Much has been
made of the fact that 500, COO was given

a view to inaugurating new or changing
