Shipbuilding on the Great Lakes.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
During the year just closed there were
launched on our shores OF the great lakes
81 vessels, or Il more than the total num-
Der launched at American yards in 1909.
OF those built last year 10 were bulk
freighters with combined carrying ca
pacity OF $4,000 tons on a single trip, or
3,s9O.0O0 tons during an average season Of
twenty trips. These freighters are prac-
tically of the same tonnage as the II ves-
sells of that type built In 1909. While no
'dreadnoughts. armored cruisers or
even naval submarines are constructed
1t the lake shipyards, they do build a
surprising variety OF boats. About the
last place to which a person would nat
urally go to see a boat being built for
the sole purpose Of gathering gold is
shipyard on Lake Michigan. Neverthe-
less. two such boats were built last year
at the little town of Ferrysburg, Mich.
One of them was shipped to India and
today Ia dredging the bed of the Irawadi
river and its tributaries in Burmah for
the glittering metal. Tne other Is dredg-
ing South American river beds for gold.
Two package freighters of 5000 tons
capacity each and one or 5000 tons were
built In 1910 for two of the lines owned
by eastern railway systems. Other YES
sells OF large size built were two passen-
ger steamers. enc carrying 1000 and the
other 36Oo people. and three car ferries.

Save the Sargosso Sea.

From Success Magazine.
If any one has seen anything OF the
Sargosso sea he will confer a great favor
upon the geographers by reporting his
discovery. For some time there has been
a suspicion that this prominent feature
Of the Atlantic ocean maps and Of the
stories OF old sailors is largely mythical.
A recent Norwegian expedition sent out
to search for the Sargossa sea reports
great deal OF sea, but very little Sar-
gosso 1t is true that they discovered Al
place in the north Atlantic where sea-
weed is rather common. but as for
mass of marine plants so dense that sail
ing vessels are held in it while the
mariners die a lingering death of star
walton, there is nothing in ii. In fact
these meddlesome Scandinavians hint
broadly that there has never been any
such place.
If any one will kindly return the Sar-
gosso sea to it's proper place in the ATTAIN
tic ocean all will be forgiven and no Ques-
tons asked. Otherwise. nothing can save
this well known phenomenon from going
the way of the sea serpent, the mermaid
and DR.. Cooks great discovery.

French Almanac Makers.

From the London Chronicle.
Compilers Of aImanacs in France are
legally responsible for the accuracy Of
their publications. This point was deter
mined by case tried in the days Of
Louis Philippe. Ouvrard, a well known
army contra ctor, fell into difficulties, and
was severity pressed by his creditors. Ac-
cording to French law debtors cannot be
arrested between sunset and sunrise.
One evening Ouvrard sailed forth in
quest of fresh air and was seized by a
bailiff as he stepped out Of his house. He
protested, and produced an almanac
showing that It was three minutes past
sunset. The bailin produced another al
manac, showing that the sun did not set
for another nine minutes. =
On his release from prison Ouvrard sued
the publisher OF the almanac which had
misled. and obtained damages.

Some sharp punishment has lately been
melted out to men convicted OF golf ball

six strokes with the birch. The offenders,

LARGE ATTENDANCE AT VARIOUS
ExERClSES-..PRoCRAMS WERE
EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD.

Christmas was appropriately cele-
brated at the several churches in this
city last Saturday evening with Christ
mas trees and exercises In keeping
with the occasion.
At the Methodist church tn Q
exercises were of most in er.
esting character. The committees
had decorated aud provided q very
fine program. The little ones de-
serve great credit for the manner in
which they carried out their part Of
the evenings celebration. Then came
the distribution of presents with bags
Of sweetmeats. A congregation that
filled the house to overdowing then dis
persed happy over the evening.
At the First Baptist church on Col
lege Hill the Sunday school gave a
most delightful Christmas cantata to q
large and appreciative audience. Miss
Beatah Huebner had charge of the
program and every part showed the
skillful hand of trained leader. Miss
Hazel Mcgowan presided at the piano
The music was most pleasing in every
part and many were the expressions OF
approval that the entertainment should
be repeated at some future date.
Roy Williams impersonated Santa
Claus and Miss Flo Barnes delighted
everyone with the clever manner in
which she acted the part of Madam
Santa Claus. Ralph Miller took the
part Of Santa Jr. and did it we'll. Vern
Scott, robed in white, made a very
natural appearing snow man, and Ross
Mcgowan did we'll in his part of Jack

Mrs. Brown at the head of this society.
Mrs. P. T. Gueyerman's class were
the snow spirits. The little girls in
Miss Huebner's class joined those of
Mrs. Lille Connor's class as beautiful
fairies, while the boys in each with
their queer costumes were the cutest
little brownies tumbling about on the
platform. Russell Berry, in the part
Of Little, sang the comical solos like q
little master.
