The companies are ready to begin their
routine work. Drills have been in prog
ress in all Of the high schools for several
weeks, but the regular duties could not
be commenced until the company officers
were appointed.
Total of Eleven Companies.
Eleven companies will comprise the
regiment this year. as Mckinley Manual
Training School has but three companies
instead Of four as last year. This will
cause a relettering of the second Western

Company l. was the fourth company of
the manual training school. All the COM
panies this year are expected to be larger
than they were last year, as the school
officials stated when the enlistments were
given out that few large companies
were preferable to a larger number of
small ones.

SPROULE
UPHOLDS DIXIE
CONSTRUCTION

George r. sproule secretary Of the
Pennsylvania Board OF Commlss'on-
ers Of Navigation aud Tor many ye1rs
secretary under the old Board of Port
WRrdens discussed yesterday thc
wisdom OF dixie construction In the
Delaware River as adopted hy the
United States engineers at the solicl-
taton Of maritime interests of the
port Mr.. sproule's discussion of the
Delaware River channel is in the
nature Of a reply to an article by
Sydney g. Fisher in which the latter
asserted that dikes were a menace to
Philadelphia and that more than 100
years ago the channel from Phlladel-
phia TO the bay was deeper than IL
is now Mr. Fisher also declared that
through most of It's extent it was not
only deeper than our present 3O-foot
channel but even deeper than the
contemplated 35-foot channel.
II is we'll within the memory Of
tlc present generation that vessels
drawing ia excess of rs feet OF water
could not pass over Fort Mhlin bar
az low tide while now there exists
80 feet of water throughout this area
az low water The statement is made
that AN old chart of the river pre-
pared in Philadelphia for the benefit
of commerce before the Revolution
published in London in 1866, and used
ry the British fleet i'm its operations
I'm the river in 1777. surprises us
when We examine il by the depth of
SO feet and AZ feet, which il gives
throughout the greater part of the
long distance Of 63 miles from Phila-
delphia TO Deep. Water at Bombay
Hook
Answering this statement. it
might be said that the depth or water
from Philadelphia 20 Bombay Hook
has been, in the opinion of our most
experienced pilots. increased at least
II feet within the last % years
Mr.. Sproule cited a number of sec
tions of the river where the channel
has been deepened. pointing to the
fact that the deep Hambury- American
Line steamship Graf Waldersee can
now steam in the channel, while Il
or rs years ago the much smaller
steamships of the American Line.
Southwark and KensingtOn, were
withdrawn because the owners claim
ed that there was not sufficient depth
10 successfully operate them out OF
this port, and concluded
"While there are no means OF
checking up the accuracy OF the old
chart referred to. J can speak of con-
ditions. previous TO the 2G-foot chan
mol project which was before the
time of dikes.
"The records Of the Board OF Port
Wardcns, since it's establishment i'm
1866. which records are now i'm the
possession of the Board of Commits
sioners of Navigation, show that the
mcmbers of this body. even in the
early days. were not infrequently
confronted with difficulties arising
from an inadequate depth o. channel,
and the consequent grounding OF
small type of craft engaged in COM
mercc.
Perhaps a vast filling up of The
channel took place between Revolu-
tionary times referred tJ and the
period of .25 years ago and this may
have been due to the destruction of
the forests along the banks of the
Delaware and the conversion Of the
forest area into farm lands. with the
consequent washing into the tideway
at every frcshet of the light top soil
under cultivation.
