FIRES At SEA.

A New Scheme For smotherins Thorn
by the Use Of FIue Gas.
One of the most promising of the
new methods Of fighting fire on ship
board at sea is to fight the fire with
fire. 1t has already been adopted on
some vessels and is receiving much
attention from marine engineers.
Its purpose is to control just such
fires as destroyed the Volturno. BY this
system the hot gases that come from
the boiler fiues and ordinarily 60 up
the ~smokestack are. used to smother a
fire. A vessel is equipped with great
pipes running from the boiler room to
all parts of the ship, and at any time
the flue gases can be switched from
the smokestack to these pipes. The
pipes would pour these 11ue gases into
the hold or the sections of the ship
where the fire was raging and smoth-
er it.
Flue gas contains only 8 per cent Of
oxygen. and Is per cent of oxygen is
required to support fire. Consequently
II great quantities of ]ue gas are
poured into the burning hold the oxy-
gen there will soon be reduced to a
point where combustion cannot on
tinue and the fire must die out.-Sat-
urday Evening Post.

DO THINK

Editor George A. Monteith
of the Finley Bacon, after due
and careful thought, has ar.
rived at this conclusion:
If we stop and think we can
readily. see that the community
that pulls together will do
more and accomplish better
results than the one that is al
ways divided.
BY working together and
producing the greatest amount
of marketable products, and
marketing them to the best adj
vantage and at the least ex-
pense, we will have greater
profits in the community than
we would otherwise receive.
And by buying our goods
from our local merchants and
from one another, instead of
sending away for them, we are
constantly increasing the
wealth of the community and
the resultant prosperity of each
Individual.
When money comes into the
community and only a portion
of it goes out again the surplus
at home will grow. and grow,
and grow, until it becomes a
veritable Eden of wealth.
Let's do a little thinking.

Elephant Crass Paper,

A sample Of dried mature elephant
grass was sent recently from Uganda
to the Imperial institute with the Oh
ject Of as%certaining its suitability for
the manufacture Of paper. The con-
signment. which weighed 1T pounds
when received and 145 after being air
dried. is said to have yielded a pulp
Of good color composed Of ultimate
6ber rather longer than those Of espar-
to grass and about the SAM length as
those of bamboo pulp. 1t furnished a
fairly good paper. which the British
experts expect to be able to improve
so as to make this material a suitable
and profitable substitute for wood pulp.

THE CHRISTMAS SHIP

~AA
MERRY CHRrsrMAs' will
sound like a hollow mockery
in the homes of half the ma
tons in the world. Thousands
today are feeling the pinch of
hunger. Their sorrows are
made harder to bear because of
personal discomforts. says the
Bismarck Tribune.
Even if peace comes before
the dawn of another Christmas
the sting of war will still be
felt.
There seems little hope that
the cannon's roar will give way
to the Christmas bells and the
peace on earth good will to-
ward men,"
The butchery and carnage
besmirching modern civiliza-
ton probably will cast it's
heavy shadow athwart Eu-
ropes Yuletide celebrations.
But United States will send
Christmas comfort, if not a
message of cheer, to the thou
sands who otherwise will know
no Christmas. The idea of a
Christmas ship is a good one
and springs from the generous
heart of the American people,
who never stand Indifferent
when others are suffering.
Twice blest is the nation
who succors another in the
hour of her tribulation.
Let us help to carry the spirit
of Christmas into the sorrow.

oupplant Them.
While the system Of wireless teleg-
raphy continues its growth there Is no
great evidence that It is likely to super
sede the cable. for in the year 1913
lew submarine cables were laid by
the British government betw cen Eng
land and Ireland. although the British
postmaster general controls the wire
less telegraph stations in Great Brit
ain and Ireland. ..
Gables were laid by the French gov
eminent between France and Algiers;
by the British. Canadian and AustraI-
asian governments Jointly between
Australasia and New Zealand; by the
Greek government between Chios and
Mitylene. and the German government
has arranged to lay another cable be-
tween Germany and England this year.
The Dutch government is preparing to
lay new cables in the East Indies and
the Japanese government between
Japan and China. Private English
cable companies laid cables from
Arabia to Ceylon and from Ceylon to
the Malay peninsula. In fact. nearly
G,OO0 miles Of new cable were made
and laid in 1913.
The mileage of cables during the last
five years has increased from 247.O 900
to $4,000. The governments have in
creased their cables by % per cent and
the private companies by II per cent.

WORTHY OF

WORTHY OF
The North Dakota Teachers
association, at the last session,
a resolution which
to be brought forcibly to
the attention of every member
the coming session of the
legislature. 1t was as follows:
1T is the sense of the North
Dakota Teachers association
that teachers as a class have
made sacrifices of strength, of
health and of time, which is
generally conceded to be theirs
for recreation and of financial
success such as comes from
evual devotion to other callings.
1t is only just that the state
should make suitable provi-
sion for those whose salaries
have scarcely more than furn-
ished a frugal support during
the years of active service in
the schools. Therefore, be it
resolved, that we heartily en-
dorse the action of the legisla-
tive assembly in passing a law
providing for a teachers in
suranCe and retirement fund.
W. urge that the legislative
assembly. at the next session,
so amend the present law as to
afford ample time for all teach
ers who desire to become mem
bers"
No class of public servants
do as much for society as the
public school teachers; none
have such poor pay, so little
appreciation and pay 80 dearly
for serving the public. Many
people think that because
school sessions are not ten
hours long and the days are
only five a week that the teach
er has a "snap." Not bv anv
means.
The modern teacher is re-
quired to put in several years
training for professional work.
In this training they are cul-
tured to a degree of interest in
their work possessed by few
servants of the public, and
many exhaust their vitality in
a short time. The mind held
persistently in the grooves of
teaching the limited range of
studies practicable becomes
'rutty' and their vigor of the
intellect is impaired. The
nerves become tagged and
jaded and the modern teacher
is destined to premature age
because she has given her
vitality to others.
Worst of all we COMPEL the
female to face a celibate's life
because of the prejudices
against married teachers. And
all this is upon a wage less
than laboring men receive.
In the state of California no
teacher in a remote mountain
hamlet can receive less than
$50 per month. This is start
ing rightly but there needs to
be also the adequate provision
for the years when they can no
longer work, and with many
of them this time will come
while they are comparatively
young, the work is 80 exhaust
ing.
Possibly the practice of de.
Quoting something from their
wages to help make a fund has
something to be said in it's
favor, but it looks like mighty
mean business to us, for the
public which takes all that
these workers can give to de.
duct from meager pay checks

the teacher leaves the work, OF
