So much for The details Now let us
see how the apparatus works.
Having located the wreck, the cup is
lowered with its face or elastic dia-
phragm fronting the side Of the foun-
dered ship. The moment it sinks far
enough and near enough to the steel
hull the excited magnet draws the
cup against the metal plating. This
accomplished, air is forced down
through the tube, and this in it's turn
drives the water within the cup out
through the bottom non-return valve.
What happened with the blowing out
Of the water? Why, just what hap
pened when the water was squeezed
out the brick-raising disk; pressure
was transcend TO only one side Of the
cup-the outer one-and the full force
of the enveloping sea pressed the
drained hemisphere against the con-
tiguous plating This pressure of sev-
eral tons per square inch is enough
to make the cup and the steel plating
virtually one. so that any lifting line
attached to the cup would be able to
pull the vessel as though secured to
part of its permanent structure. In
deed, Mr.. Clark has calculated that
such a cup with diameter OF fiYe feet.
when gripping the side Of a vessel only
300 feet below the surface, would be
able TO lift a load of quite 100 tons!
OF course this hold increases in lifting
capacity in direct proportion TO added

But the obstacles, even in the indus
trial trades, need not be utterly mac
cessible to solution if those who are
interested and in touch with the situa-
ton are really determined to bring for

the exhibit concerns the human factor

We have recently heard Of another
scheme for The raising of the Titanic.
in which great electro lifting magnets
were TO be employed. but Mr.. Clark,
although claiming to he the pioneer in
ventor Of submarine magnets for such
work, is really opposed to their employ
ment in operations Of this kind, and he
gives a very good reason for his OBJ
lection. A magnet of this sort is only
effective as long as current is flowing
to it from dynamo. Electricity means
power developed through an engine,
and the running of an engine continu-
ously is a pretty expensive thing-the
outlay growing in proportion to the
volume of the service required. The
moment the electric flow halts the mag
net becomes dead and instantly loses
its grip.
Have you ever pulled "a brick out Of
the sidewalk, as youngster, by means
Of a saturated disk Of thick leather Sc
cured by a stout cord? BY stamping
upon the leather you squeezed out the
water and forced away the film of air
/ at first lying between the brick and the
pad. In other words, you made the
contact between the leather and the
brick a binding one, and at the same
tune shifted atmospheric pressure to
hut one side-the upper one-of the
/ disk. That air pressure, of only fifteen
pounds was enough to fasten the lea
| ;her so intimately TO the brick that the
tugging upon the cord did not break
the tie, and so you were able 10 work
the brick loose and finally to lift it,.
Simple. wasn't it, Now let MS see

wind. Where there is a strong tide
running another difficulty is added, and
it is a hazardous and ticklish opera
ton to get in place and taut the cables
that hold the wreck in their loops. But
just link how much harder the task
becomes if the salvage steamer has TO

merged hulk against such opposition
Well. Mr.. Clark cleverly plans to re-
duce these handicaps to minimum.

HOPE THAT EXHIBIT WILL STIR

~The chief point is that this exhibit
of the business mems group attempts
to put this aspect of the Industrial
problem into greater prominence; not
indeed, to offer a panacea, or TO insist
on any single and ready made solution,
but to stir up thinking and to encour-
age sincere and more thoroughgoing
efforts"

right to complain of what he calls the
ingratitude of the working people, for
he has made the cardinal mistake OF
misunderstanding the nature Of men.
We have many things TO deplore in the
labor world to-day; many mistakes
have been made on both sides; but 1t
seems to me that the one thing that we

How have the employees used their
power? Here is an incident that hap
pened in 1911. The question FOR vote
was as to whether the store should
be closed all day Saturday, June L..
the day preceding being Bunker Hill
Day. a state holiday If this were done
il would give the employees a three
day holiday. A precedent for such
vote had been established some years
before, when they had voted to close
the store on July ca Saturday, July
4, the holiday, coming on Friday
EMPLOYEES VOTE AGAINST EXTRA
HOLIDAY.
Agitation had been intense during
the days preceding the meeting. for
the employees naturally were interested
in having an additional days rest With
pay. The meeting was 10 hear both
sides of the question, and to decide.
After those i'm favor of closing had
made their plea, those opposed brought
out an argument few had considered.
1t was pointed out that "A Saturday in
the middle of June was much more
valuable and costly TO lose than one
i'm July, being the last Saturday before
the bulk Of the school graduations, and
that much more business would in all
probability be lost. When the vote
was taken the employees by an over
whelming majority decided not to take
the extra holiday. The ball game
would have to be played without them
It is the testimony Of the officers oi
the store that similar fairmindedness
has at all time characterized the ac-
tons of the employees and that they
have never attempted TO use Their
power detrimentally TO the interests
Of the business.
The exhibit shows that a beginning
has been made in lettering industrial
relations by the use Of cooperative
methods. but its chief importance is rs
illustration of tendencies AMI progress
rather than Of accomplishment The

CANDIES TO FOLLOW FEAST
Connections That Are Sure to Please
if Care Is Taken in Cooking
and Mixing.

(By MARTHA ELLEN PERRYMAN.)
First there are some hints it will be
well to observe if you hope for good
fortune in candy-making: GRADUATED
sugar Is preferable, and always used
unless some other kind is specified.
Candy should not be stirred while boil
ing. Cream of tartar should not be
added until the strip begins to boil,
and butter should be put in when the
candy is nearly done. Flavors are
most delicate when not boiled with
the candy, but added when it is taken
from the fire, or when it is being
pulled
Butter Taffy.-Boil three scupfuls Of
brown sugar one-half cupful of molas-
ses, and one-fourth cupful each of
vinegar and hot water. When the
candy will crisp in cold water add two
teaspoonfuls of butter, cook three
minutes, flavor with a teaspoonful OF
vanilla and cool in buttered pans.
Hickory-Nut candy.-Boil two cup
fuls of sugar and one-half cupful of
water without stirring until the strip
will spin thread when poured from
the spoon. Flavor with extract Of
lemon or vanilla, set off into cold wa
ter, stir in one cupful of hickory-nut
meats, then into fiat tins, and when
cool cut in small squares.
eppermints.-Boil two cupfuls OF
sugar and one cupful of water without
stirring until the strip threads from
the spoon. Remove from the fire and
beat with an egg-whip until white and
creamy, favor with one-half teaspoon
full of essence of peppermints Qess If
you do not like it SO strong) and drop
in waters on waxed paper to harden.
You can make chocolate peppermlnts
by dipping the cream into melted
chocolate. Wintergreen, lemon, or
nnge and other fiavors may be used
for the mints.
These candies are all easily made
and you will find it pleasant pastlme
to prepare at home the candies for the
Thanksgiving feast.

SEVEN METHODS OF SAVING
Some Good Uses for Utilization OF
Leftovers Which VIII Interest
the HousekeepAr.

/. Save badly cut pieces of hrea1
and slices left over from the table for
a bread pudding or a Brown Betty.
save every scrap and crust 10 crumb
up Tor stuffings or to use for nreading
scailop dishes, croquettes, etc.
z. remove the sinew from the legs
of fowl when it is drawn and the
meat of the leg will be as good as that
of the second joint
3. Cold rice should always be saved:
1t can be added to a soup, mashed into
croquettes. mixed with eggs and fried
like hominy or used in scallop dish.
4. Leftover vegetables, when the
amount is too small to be served
again, may be mixed with gravy for
a ragout, or used separately or togeth-
er for salad. Caulifower, potatoes
and cabbage are good broken in small
pieces covered with grated cheese and
baked in baking dish, Eau gratin."
5. Small portions of leftover cereals
may be added to the pancake batter
and will greatly improve the cakes.
Or they may be rolled into balls and
fried, or added to the soup stock.
6. The tough ends of steak may be
chopped very fine, seasoned we'll with
pepper. salt, butter and a little onion
juice and formed into balls or cakes
for sautes or broiled for luncheon.
Scraps of white meat may be chopped,
mixed with white sauce warmed UP
and garnished with parsley and hard
boiled eggs. The carcasses of fowl and
the bones of roasts should be used
to make nourishing soup. Beef fat
and drippings and the fat from poul-
try should be clarified and kept for
frying. Wings and legs Of fowls that
are left over are good grilled for
luncheon
z. Sour milk may be used for corn
bread, griddle cakes, ginger bread and
biscuits. 1t may be made into cream
cheese or turned into a refreshing
drink by icing it and whipping it for
about five minutes with an egg beaten.

Besides Lerwick, the capital, there
is only one other town of any size, that
being Scalloway. 1t is seven miles
from Lerwick across the peninsula and
was the harbor town of Tingwall, the
old capital of the islands. 1t boasts
castle which was built in 1910 and in
habitated by Patrick Stewart, then
governor of the islands. He was
particularly brutal and inhunan man.
for there still remains a ring on one
of the walls, through which rope was
run. to which he hanged a great num-
her of the inhabitants for very trivial
offenses, or none at all sometimes, SO
the legend goes, other than refusing
TO pay him unlawful tribute. These
executions were of daily occurrence,
and matters came to such pitch that
petitions were sent to parliament
which caused him to be called to
Edinburgh. where an inquiry was held.
Ultimately he was hanged.
His memory was so odious that the
neople destroyed the castle, and now
oil that remains are the four walls and
the keep.
