Coal for the Navy

From 'h Nrmr and Navy Journal
 Our geographical location has n ma terial Influence upon the construction ., d' Vessels of war. The factors in our geographical position that make TOT thls defference are our isolation and the long stretches between the iittoral or the United States and the ports or its insular possessions. Our comparatively few and widely separ- ate coaling stations, coupled with this 1st 'ht tloh' have made it necessary for our naval constructors to devote es ''"i attention to affording ships the atest possible coal carrying capac- TO remit the necessary weight of

The necessity of linn lung the weight of, and space occu- pied by, the boilers has forced the in stallation of boilers of light weight ana compact design with limited com uston space. The want of coaling stations also makes it imperative that The coal of the United States navy should be of the best kind, so that the coal burning vessels will have the maxlmum steaming radius. In explain ing this Lieut. Commander J. O. Rich ardson, U. s. N, in the Journal of the American Society of Naval Engineers, argues against training men to burn western coal to the exclusion of east ern coal for such men would have to Forget what they now know about the use of navy standard steaming coal, and 1t would result in reduced naval preparedness, because in time of war the best obtainable coal must be used and the men must be qualified to pro- duce the maximum efficiency with this coal. To teach these men to handle a peculiar kind of coal fit only for peace use would unfit them for their war time duties and would be analogous to teaching gun crews to use brown powder at target practice and depend ing upon them to learn at the outbreak k of war the use of smok eless powder the only suitable kind in battle

Just a Word About flow ICOnduct My
 Business

l want you to feel that this is personal-for this Is written just as I'd like to talk personal ly to each individual in Bir- mingham and surrounding dis trict.
 When 1 opened this store several years ago, I started building business that would stand through all times the most rigid criticisms. And my policy at the start and is, to always keep faith with my pat rons, and you may take my ad- vertising year in and year out and you'll never find where single article has ever been misrepresented in any way. If you ever see an article adver- tised over the name of Louis Pizitz as worth $4O.O0, and sell Ing TOT $l.OO, you Il lind that article just as promised or bet ter. Some times mistakes will happen. Errors will be made by some new or inexperienced employee, but in such case the mistake or error will be rec tified the minute it is brought to my attention. And any ar ticle that you may purchase at my store, if it is not absolutely satisfactory, 1 want you to re- turn it and either get your money back or other merchan- disc, just as you desire. My customers, in my mind, are al- ways right and must be satis- fled.

NO SCHEMES

l never have and never will resort to any sort of schemes for business. In other words, l never give rebates, trading stamps" or any kindred thing, supposed to be free to custo- mers, but which really are dear ly paid for by them in the long run. Itis my policy to sell mer- chandise and not promises, and for every dollar of your money l guarantee to give you one hundred cents worth of the best merchandise that money can buy. And furthermore, when I sell you an article as a bargain, it is real bargain and there are never any strings tied to it.
 These are the principles upon which my business is conduct ed. They have been my prin- ciples since starting in business and will be as long as I am in business. I have aimed to "speak" with you directly that you may know thoroughly my business methods and my suc- cess in business. I thank YOU.

At last we have had it doped out
