Cheer Up!

y The business prospects for 1915 grow
brighter every day. Encouraging indi-
cations are coming with the signs of
summer. If our country can keep out of
this horrible war there will be no cause
for complaint. Advertisers all over the
country realize this and business men are
reaching out for trade. There is plenty
of money and the timidity caused by the
tariff and the war will pass away be-
cause the United States may have to
supply the world with necessities.

Is there a three and one-haif dollar
United States gold piece, or was one
ever coined?
No. The two and one-half dollar
piece is common. A three dollar piece
was coined for some time, but it has,
now gone out of circulation, and. is
looked upon as a numismatic rarity.
An experimental four dollar piece, or

would like to know how long these
boats can remain entirely submerged
and any other interesting facts about
them.
A typical submarine is about 14S feet
long by 10 feet in diameter, and is
capable of a speed of eleven knots on
the surface and FIVE knots submerged.
In tests submarines have stayed under
water for twenty-four hours at time.
Some of the more recent have a radius
of action of 1850 miles-that is, they
could cross the Atlantic without re-
plenish.Hg their fuel and stores. While
cruisl.~s Gu the surface they are pro-
PEELED by gasoline engines. In rum
ming submerged they use electric mo-
tors that are driven by storage bat
teries, which are charged by the gaso-
line engines while on the surface.
They at* not a particularly comforta-
bic craft, but if the weather gets too
rough they can submerge and thus es-
cape the worst of the wave action.
Was the American army during the
revolutionary war recruited entirely by
volunteering or was something like a
draft used?
AT the. beginning of the war volun-
teering sufIiced. but with the necessity
for more troops other measures were
used. The Continental congress ap.
portioned its quota of troops for each
state. The state was divided into class
es, and each class was to furnish a
man by contributions or by taxes i'm
posed on itself. In some instances a
draft was to be used as a last resort;
in Others the man was to be recruited
by persons appointed for that purpose
and the class to be taxed with the sum
given for his bounty. When voluntary
enlistments fell short of the proposed
number the deficiencies were by the
laws of the several states to be made
up by drafts or lots from the militia.
The towns in New England and the
counties III the middle states were re.
Spectively called on for Il specified
number of men. Such was the zeal
or the people of New England that
neighbors would often club together to
engage one of their number to go into
the army. The Maryland assembly
ordered the classification of citizens ac-
cording to property. and each class to
furnish recruits accordingly. Virginia
made similar classification and re-
quired every fifteenth man to enlist.
