GREAT LAKES TO ALASKA
Contract for U. S. Coast and Geodetc
Survey Vessel Surveyor awarded

Contract for U. S. Coast and Geodetc
Survey Vessel Surveyor awarded
Washington, ID. c., Sept. 27.-The
contract for the construction of a new
United States Coast and Geodetic
Survey vessel has been awarded by
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld to the
Manitowoc Shipbuilding and Dry Dock
Company, located on Lake Michigan,
at Manitowoc, Wisconsin. The con
tract price was only $1S9000 for the
bare hull and machinery, but the ulti-
mate cost of the vessel full equipped
will be 100000.
The new vessel will be named the
Surveyor" and will be used in sur
veying and charting the dangerous
waters of Alaska and the Bering Sea
in the summer and the coasts of
Washington, Oregon and California in
the winter.
The Surveyor will be a steel steamer
of about 1000 tons displacement, with
triple expansion engines and will use
crude oil as fuel She will accommo-
date &C officers and men and carry
enough fuel and stores to stay at sea
on a surveying cruise for about three
months at a time without returning
to her base of supplies.
According to the terms of the con-
tract, the Surveyor must be completed
within one year, but vice-president
West of the Manitowoc Company who
came to Washington to consult with
f. Lester Jones, superintendent of the
United States coast and geodetic sur
vey, about the construction of the
vessel, says she will be finished in
much less time, possibly as early as
the first of next August, which will
leave ample time to take the vessel
to the Atlantic coast before the close
of navigation in the Great Lakes.
A remarkable feature of the award
of this contract lies in the fact that
a shipbuilding company located on
Lake Michigan should build an ocean
going vessel destined for service in
Alaska. This brings home the import
ant commercial fact that after all the
Great Lakes extending far into the in
terror of the American continent, are
for all practical purposes a part of
the Atlantic Ocean. 1t also speaks well
for the enterprise of the shipbuilding

In these words is hidden the tragedy
Of many woman, housekeeper or wage
Garner who supports herself and is often
helping to support a family, on meagre
wages. Whether in house, office, fac
tory, shop, store or kitchen, woman
should remember that there is one tried

women are prone, and that is Lydia F..

thereby producing poison instead of
nourishment.

The extensive relations sustained by
the state board of health to the public
uncover many interesting peculiarities
of human nature, according to health
commissioner John w. Duke. For eX-
ample, the number of men and women
who attempt to diagnose their own
ailments and to apply self-treatment
is astonishingly large, Notwithstanding
the fact that the causes and nature of
disease sometimes elude the most ca
pable scientific inquiry. The average
man, finding that his automobile, his
telephone or his watch Is out of re-
pair, will at once consult a skilled me-
chanic But this same average man,
whose physical body is the most deli
cately constructed mechanism in the
world will proceed without hesitation,
if he does not feel well, to decide up
on the cause, and to apply self-treat-
ment, thereby showing less regard for
his own health which is his greatest
asset, than he does for his watch or
his automobile. Such persons make
possible the successful quackery in
patent medicines.
1T would be we'll for every per-
son, at least twice year, to receive a
thorough physical examination by a
reputable competent physician" said
Health Commissioner John w. Duke.
Instead of increasing the earnings of
physicians, this course actually would
cut down their revenues, for often
such an examination would forestall
prolonged illness and its attendant eX-
pense. Best of all, there would be no
interruption in the earnings and pro-
ductivity of individuals, which is ar
rested by illness. Again, such eXami-
nations at regular intervals might dis
close the presence of incipent dis
ease at a time when it might easily
be cured, but which might be hopeless
if permitted to become chronic. We
insure our property against fire and
lightning, but neglect the more i'm
portant duty of safeguarding our
health by timely precaution. In dol
lars and cents, there are no losses
more positive than those due to i'll
health. 1t would be difficult to es-
innate the vast gains in every phase
of community life if citizens would
subject themselves to the same kind
of overhauling about twice a year that
is given to the mechanical equipment
of business enterprises"
