U. S. SUBMARINES ARE
BUILT THE STRONGEST
Our Undorsea Craft Beat Those
Of Other Nations.

Observation-Disclosures else may be
said of the submarine torpedo boats of
the United States, naval experts ia
mtliar with this type of craft are con
f1dent that the underwater boats of NO
other nation are built on stronger lines.
In fact, naval officers say that none of
the great world powers requires the
construction of submarines to resist
anything like the great water pressure
that is required of American subma-
rines.
Submarines built for the American
navy must have hull strength sufficient
to resist the pressure of the ocean at
q depth of 800 feet. Before these deli
cate craft are accepted they must have
withstood pressure at u depth around
21O feet, which is deemed sufficient,
but must be strong enough to go much
lower. British and German subma-
rines are not required to stand pressure
at 300 feet. the requirement usually
running around 200 feet. German sub
marines, as a rule. are tested at a depth
around $50 feet and those Of the Brit
tsh navy sometimes at a greater depth.
OF all submarine defects those az
fecting the propelling. engines have
been most numerous and bothersome.
The development Of this type Of en-
CINE has been very gradual. Until
very recently. however, engine trouble
has been of common occurrence in sub
marines, and the work of construction
has been delayed more by engine de-
fects probably than from all other de-
fects combined.
For example, while the contracts for
submarines usually call for delivery
within two years. it has been under
stood at all times that the vessels
could not be completed and delivered
In h a time, and the reason given al
ways has been the engines. 1t is be-
lieved. however. that the submarine
engines have been so far perfected
that from now on delivery of the boats
may be confidently expected within
the contract period. Naval experts
concede that Germany may have a Sill
perior submarine engine.
While deeply regretting the loss Of
the F4. with it's crew of twenty-five
men. naval officers take pride in the
fact that that was the only fatal acct
dent to an American submarine. while
similar accidents have happened to
the submarines of the big European
! nations on more than one occasion.
But submarine cruising is hazardous
nc best. The structure of a subma-
rine is necessarily delicate. Any one
of many things might be responsible
for wrecking an underwater boat.

Mobridge, Oct. 1l.-Captain Nels
jacobson. after spending a long life
on the water, met death al Mobridge
when his automobile turned turtle.
He had operated q ferryboat ACROSS
the Missouri river at Mobridge or
points near here for more than thirty
years, starting at q time when his
principal cargoes were cattle, taken
across the river into the Indian coun-
try by adventurous cattlemen, or
bringing those same cattle back after
they had fattened on the rich grasses
of that region, to be driven to Aber-

ket. Prior to coming to South Dako-

BOARD OF HEALTH
VISITS SCHOOLS

The impression that obtains in coun-
ty school house visiting is too general
ly one of dilapidation; first from the
gate on the grounds, when there is a
gate; it often being q part boards and
part wire; then the fence composed of
about the same material; then the
school house steps and platform, often
quite broken and partly gone. The i'm
pressions that the children or the young
people get from these surroundings must
be quite lasting and not what is desired
and the attention Of school officers
should, and it is believed. will be given
to this.
Upon entering the school room one is
impressed more pleasantly; here we
find a globe, maps and plenty of black
board space, generously furnished by
the township; here we e the work of
the teacher, with blackboard drawings.
letters and figures, indicating pains
taking work we'll done.
But there must be criticisms of the
out. houses or privies. None of them
have windows as the law directs; all
except one that have been noticed have
doors opening inward, the law requir-
ing them to open outward and to be self
shutting from springs or weights. The
law also requires that the outhouses
shall be separated as far as they can
be conveniently, and they shall be put
on proper foundations. 1t hardly needs
to be remarked, that conditions of out
houses are sometimes noticed that must
be quite embarrassing to both pupils and
teacher.
The most of the school houses in the
county have been visited and inspected
by the health officers, and proper and
needed suggestions have been made;
and it is pleasant to mention that some
of the suggestions are already meeting
with response by appreciative school
officers. In n district, Fielder, a new
school house is being built.
All needed changes can not be made
at once, but probably another years
visit will note many improvements.
The health officers, in their visits and
efforts to improve school house condi-
ton, are pleased to mention the gen.
eral and kindly cooperative interest
taken by the several township school
officers and patrons of the schools; this
latter is commendable and encouraging.

the }. q. George Chapter u. D. C. and the
Woman's Club of Greenwood. This hand

for Mrs. Fannie Arnold, the furniture for
the gentlemen's rest room, which was given
in memory of her late son, Henry Arnold.
Music was furnished by the Greenwood

city sang 'America" and "Dixie." Quite a
large crowd attended the services.
At the last hour, Mrs. J. H. Price, Pres
ident of the Mississippi Federation of We.
mans Clubs, and Mrs. Lille Scales Schlater,
President of the Mississippi Division Of the
u. D. c., who were on the afternoon pro.
gram for addresses, wired their inability to
