my eyes upon it was a very small and
simple world as I look back at ii now
IN The glare and noise Of the twentieth
century. There was an abundance of
gayety, but expenditures were small.
Everybody knew everybody else and
all about everybody else's family. Most
people were related, for in the small
colonial communities Of the eighteenth
century the established families had
intermarried in a manner most be-
wildering even to the trained genealo-
gists Yet the extreme familiarity
and ease of intercourse which / now

another field of usefulness. Compressed air is
very searching much than water, ana II
has the added advantage of sounding an alarm
wherever it manages to work its way through
even in small measure. Dry air, unlike water
is not destructive and compartment full OF
stores, electrical apparatus of any other Things
sensitive to water could be flooded with com
pressed air for test without doing the least harm
to the contents.
The value of this has already been proved in
a number Of instances recently and upon one
occasion the draining of a leaking COMPARTMENT
and the charging with air of the surrounding
compartments filed with stores resulted in the
saving of probably $4,000 $4,000 worth of
property. In few moments after the automatic
alarm gave warning of the flooding the compress
ed air in service and the water driven
board again.
Perhaps the most striking example of the efec-
tiveness of this system for keeping injured
snip afoat and making it possible for her to pro
coed to port was that Of the u S. S. collier Nero
The vessel struck Brentons Reef, Rhode Island,
in July of 1909. Ordinary salvage operations
failed to dslodge her from the rocks, and it
not until certain Of her decks sealed her
metically and number of the intervening spaces
turned into closed compartments and compressed
air pumped into her that she released and
ioated. She reached the Brooklyn navy yard
