subject Of the meeting was "Co-opera-
tion.' and plea was made that the

Commissioner Frederick l.. Siddons

and church members help in promoting
the work Of the organization.

for the Associated Charities had been
beneficial to him. Individuals get as
much from the work as they give, he
said.

also did much by way of prevention.

FORMER SENATOR KNOX
CITED HOLLANDS DlkES
Answered a Colleagues Question
About the Gatun Dam by
Asking One.

When former Secretary of State Phil
ander c. Knox was a senator he accom-
panied senatorial committee to the
Isthmus of Panama TO study the canal.
While it was conducting hearings Gatun
lake and Gatun dam came III for atten-
ton. Now, Gatun dam happens to be a
very sizable pile of material. but when
compared with the water in Gatun lake
it seems very small. The one contains
q, 600, 600 cubic yards of earth and rock.
and the other thousands of times as
much water.
A senator who seemingly never had
looked inside of book OF physics grave
ly asked Chief Engineer Goethals how
it was that such a small amount OF
earth could hold in check such a vast
body of water. Col. Goethals carefully
explained that well known law of water
pressure which makes its outward thrust
depend upon the height of the column
OF water and not its area, but still the
senator could not see it.
Cites bikes of Holland.
Mr. Knox suddenly broke in with:
Senator, if your theory holds good, how
is it that the dikes of Holland hold in
check the Atlantic ocean,
II the senator had had the opportunity
to read 1.-The Panama Canal by Fred
eric j. Haskin, he would have known all
about the dam In the first place. 1t is
book that tells the engineers story
of the canal in the layman's tongue. Col.
Goethals himself bears witness to you
that it is an accurate and dependable
one. That is why The Star is distribut-
