Bacon's Rule for Study

Lord Bacon laid down the rule that
In our studies we should select those
things that please us most, because we
then develop our talents, and all the
things that displease us most, because
then we discipline the mind. He in
sisted, furthermore, that the latter
studies are the more important Of the
two. 1t would be well to have these
old truths recalled, revived and re-
taught. They should be put back not
only into our public schools but into
our national life.

INITIAL FOURTEEN
inch GUN WARSH|P
Dreadnaught Texas, Launch
ed Saturday, to Be Most
Powerful in World.
(National News Association


WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE bat
tie ship Texas, the first of Uncle
Sans big fighting machines to carry
the new 14-inch guns, will be launched
tomorrow at the yards of the Newport
News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock COM
pany. The day will be an historic
one in the navy, for when the Texas
takes the water it will mean that so
far as future construction is concern
ed all the battleships of the American
navy will be of the powerful type, now
popularity known as the super-dread-
naught class. The Texas is a sister
ship of the New York, now building at
the New York Navy Yard. These two
ships will represent the last word in
American naval construction.
They will embody. to greater de-
gree than any of their predecessors,
the united experience and thought of
the various branches of the naval ser
vice, and the officers of both line and
staff unite in the belief that these two
ships are the most powerful vessels
under construction today. The Okla
homa and the Nevada, the plans for
which have been drawn but which are
not yet under construction, will car
ny the same batteries as the Texas
and the New York and will be identi-
cal in all essential features. Practical
ly the only difference will be the tom
mage, the displacement of the Oklaho-
ma and Nevada being 500 tons great
er than that of the ship to be launch
ed at Newport News tomorrow.
Not only in size but in the calibre of
the guns at their main batteries will
the New York and Texas be the most
formidable battleships ever built up
to the present time. Heretofore the
13-inch gun has been the limit in cal
ibre of naval guns. The New York
and Texas, however, will each carry
ten 14-inch guns, mounted two in a
turret, and SO arranged that all OF
them can be fired in broadside, or
forward, or aft, at the same time. The
weight of the projectiles fired in a
broadside from these two ships would
be $4,000 pounds.
