FOR WHAT PURPOSE sAVED7
Leisurely Englishman at a Loss to Un.
derstand Value of Those Precious
Four Minutes.

In no other metropolis of the world
are similar expenditures contemplated
for traffic purposes, and that for very
obvious reasons. Not only is the
physical conformation of New York
without parallel, but nowhere else is
there a public SO insistent on the sub
ject of saving time" Minutes spent
in transit must be cut down to the
irreducible minimum, no matter how
prodigally the saved time may be
wasted.
In this connection, continues Alan
Sullivan in Harper's Magazine, con-
slider an actual occurrence. An Eng
hshman who recently dropped in at a
friends office in Twenty-seventh
street, was asked to dine. At the near
est subway station they took local
train to the Grand Central, there
dived across the platform into an ex-
press that disgorged them at Seventy
second street, where they entered an
other local train that finally deposited
them at the door of the Gothamite's S
apartment at Broadway and Seventy
ninth street Followed then smoke
and most leisurely dinner. Halfway
through the dessert, the Briton looked
at his host.
I've been wondering why we took
three trains to get here?"
why? We saved four minutes!"
The visitor pondered. Il say" he
questioned, thoughtfully, what are
you going to do with them?"
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-03-20

The claim to have been the first
discoverer of Australia has been put
forward by many men and many ma
tions. Thus the French allege that
Captain Paulovier de Bonneville
made the discovery in 1904. Recent
researches have, however, proved that
it was Madagascar, and not Australia
that this French navigator sighted.
There is little doubt that the latter
was discovered prior to 1912 by the
Portuguese, but no record remains OF
the details of the discovery. The
Dutch yacht Duyfhen, from Bantam,
which had been dispatched to explore
New Guinea, sighted the mainland in
March, 1906, and, in June of the same
year Louis vaez de Torres, a Span
lard, accompanied by Fernandez de
IQuiros, made the same discovery. The
name of this first navigator is the
first authenticated one known in con-
nection with Australia, and his discov-
cry has been perpetuated in, the
nomenclature of the Straits Of Torres
William Dampier was the first Eng
lishman to visit Australia, and Cap
tain Cook the first explorer to give
ANY really authentic and valuable in
formation as to this then unknown
continent.

years dying hard and slowly. Inven-
tors and skilled mechanics found all
their efforts resisted, not so much be-
cause of any particular opposition on
the part of the hand-workers, but be-
cause they were unable to perfect the
correct form of machinery for their
purpose. Even now a considerable
quantity of window glass is still hand
made, but machinery is everywhere
displacing the process. Until about
twenty years ago a. man with blow
pipe represented the only method of
producing window glass, and the
sheets were limited to about two feet
by three feet, even then containing
defects which could not be avoided.
BY the perfecting of the cylinder and
sheet-drawing process it has recently
become possible to manufacture glass
of good quality and beautiful clarity in
about the same manner that paper is
made-that is, in continuous sheet
Machinery does everything, taking the
glass from the molten mass in the fur
mace. handling it automatically through
al its changes until it is delivered on
a table, ready to be washed. cut and
boxed for shipment. These machine
made sheets have already been made
as large as five feet wide by ten feet
long, and apparently the size is limited
only by the size of the machine The
