Columbus, Ohio, June 27.-Secre-
tary of State Charles II. Graves this
month will open and take personal
charge of the largest summer school
in politics in America He will have
on his list of enrolled students the
1.2OO,0 900 voters of the state of Ohio.
His task will be that of conducting
course by mail on how to vote on the
initiated and referred measures that
come before the. voters of Ohio next
fall To do this effectively he has
been given an appropriation of $780,
600 by the people of the state.
Not only will Secretary Graves in
struct the people on their rights and
privileges in the fall election. but he
must also, with rigid fairness and i'm
partiality, see that each voter is given
every opportunity to study fully both
sides of every measure that is to be
submitted to the people for approval
or rejection He must mail to every
voter pamphlets containing the argu-
ments advanced in favor of each sub
mitted measure and at the same time
mail a pamphlet containing the argu-
ments against the measure as drawn
up by the foes of the bill
Already Secretary Graves prelim-
mary duties in this course of political
study are far from light, and the peri
cd of the submission of referred meas
ures has not yet arrived. AS it stands
he must see that the Ohio voters are
properly instructed on the merits Of
four constitutional amendments. two
providing for different forms of the
short" ballot, one for the exemption
of public bonds and another making
women eligible for certain state po-
sitions. Besides these two other am
endments, one calling for a classifica
ton of the general property tax and
another for smaller general assem-
bly, are now being initiated and will be
I submitted within a FEW weeks.
He will also have to instruct the
/ people on the referred measures.
! One of these is a referendum on the
workingmen's compensation act, pass
ed by the state legislature, which is
going to be referred back to the peo-
/ Pile for final action. Other measures
( that are now being referred are bills
( seeking to disenfranchise students in
educational institutions, the Cunning
ham agricultural commission bill and
several taxation measures.

Glass PoIishino

Glass grinding is effected by tn,
use OF emery powder of various de,
grees OF hneneSs. But it has been
shown that this grinding cannot be
carried beyond a certain point,
however fine a powder may be used.
In fact, a continuation of it undoes
the work and breaks the surface I'D
again. The most finely ground
plate, if largely magnfied, is shown
to be covered with tiny bits which
no grinding will remove. The work
is therefore continued with rouge
carried on a pad of rosin, which
gradually smooths down the eleva-
tions between the pits. Hydro
fiuorlc acid gas corrodes glass very
rapidly, bit a weak solution of it
melts away the roughened surface
and leaves a fine polish underneath.
This method is used where very
tine adjustments of the surface arr
requires-as, for instance, in lenses
i5F telescopes ana microscopes.

The Old Constitution.

lac Constitution originally car.
ned forty-four guns. A particular
~ interesting history is connected
with this ship. During the war
with the Barbary powers in 1903
she was Commodore Preble's flag
ship in the Mediterranean and
played a conspicuous part during
the whole war. Lieutenant Wads-
worth, who was blown up before
lrlpoli in the i'll fated Intrepid.
was one of the officers of the Con-
stltution. In the course of the war
with England in 1912 the English
papers laughed at the Constitution
and spoke of her "a "a. bundle of
pine boards sailing under a bit OF
striped bunting" But when under
Captain Hull she captured the
English frigate Guerrero, a vessel
OF nearly equal force, the people
who had before ridiculed her called
her zone of the stanchest vessels
atoat." A few months after this
victory the Constitution, then COM
handed by Captain Bainbridge,
compelled n of the finest frigates
n the British navy, the Java, to
strike its colors.
