Dental reports received at the navy

new plan Of preparedness II was
also learned the figures made public
by Sec'y Daniels Tuesday were only a
part of the general scheme for a
greater navy.
Here is a summary OF the informa-
ton:
1. 1t is estimated that by 1923
Great Britain will have so dread
noughts OF the first class: the United
States 33 and Germany at least SO.
.. The maximum size of the war

TO $3.50 a ton. as against 1925 to $3.50
a ton demanded by private manufac-
turers.
The cost Of armor has increased be
cause OF a community CT interest be
tween the steel concerns
Experts say the cost Of a battle
ship has increased from $4,000, 600
three years ago 10 $1S.500.000 today.
BY making "A fai= percentage OF its
powder the government has forced
down the price heretofore fixed by
armor for the ships. This plant is
estimated 90 cost about $4,000, 900 and
the powder combination, and a similar
result is expected from the manu-
facture OF a portion of the armor plate

tured at government plants at n very
considerable reduction from prices

The government Is now making pro-

land. Charleston and Norfolk and
Sec'y Daniels says there is no reason
why il should not produce its own Il
inch armor piercing proiectiles.
The general increase in both the ar

of officers for the future. Sec'y Gar

the appointment of IA additional ca

Will ask for $50 additional cadets for

To Meet L. :. Plans.
Navy experts say England is plan
ming her battleship construction on
the theory that for the future she
must have as many ships OF the first
line as the United States and Ger
many combined. No matter what the
program OF this country may be. il is
believed Great Britain viii meet IL

Details obtained show unofficiaHy
that these ships Of 10000 tons will
be Z > feet long. 100 feet beam and

main battery will consist Of eighteen
14-inch guns as compared with the
ten 15-inch guns on the Queen Eliza
beth. the last word i'm British con-
struction and having q speed Of only
% knots.
The possible use of 16 inch guns is
TO be determined by the general board.
Experts point out however that where
ships can see each other the IA inch
is as effective as the Is inch while
beyond the horizon is accomplished
with difficulties and tends TO mac
curacy
The chief objection TO the use OF de-
strOyers as scouts as demonstrated in
the recent war game is they cannot
carry enough coal for an extended
search Of the seas and cannot be de-
pended upon in high seas This def
cheney has made the inclusion of scout
cruisers in the presidents plan i'm

Kin, the only Chinese woman ever
graduated from an American medical
school, will speak at the Connecticut
suffrage convention on Oct. 20, but
she does not believe that the women
Of China are yet ready for the ballot.
They need education, she says.
The woman suffrage movement in
China was a worked up thing. a forced
thing, which made a good deal of
noise, but meant nothing. Men don't
vote in China; they are not ready for

TWO MEMORY JOGGING
DEVICES THAT WON'T


The old method of tieing a string
about q finger to recall to mind some
task to be done at a certain time has
been done away with.
The new way Is to transfer a ring
from one finger to another. On the
accustomed finger the ring feels nat
ural, and does not cause annoyance,
buS on any other finger 1t slightly irri-
tates. This irritation constantly will
aid in recalling the task to be done.
Just try 1t once.
Another and more novel way is to
carry a colored ribbon in the coat
pocket.
Suppose, now, you are in your office.
Your wife phones you to be sure and
bring home q certain thing. Go to your
coat hanging on the office rack. take
out the ribbon and tie it tightly around
q sleeve.
At night when you start to go home
your fist will jam itself against the
tied sleeve. "Oh, yes" you will say to
yourself, there's that cought syrup
Molly told me to be sure and bring
home tonight" and off you will go at
once to make the purchase.
A man who Is notoriously known to
never forget to perform a mission re-
quested by his wife," won his reputa-
ton by use OF the above two methods.
Simply by transferring his finger ring
he has been known never to forget to
mail her letters on the day they were
given to him.

At Wilma, which is temporarily in

ter Laptieff, one Of Europe's "old
men, for he was born in the year
1888. says the London Chronicle.
When Napoleon invaded Russia, and
got as far as Dvinsk, he was in need
of guide, But the inhabitants had
ned, Laptieff's family hiding in the
recesses of forest. But curiosity
drew him, and he hid in a tree to
watch the invaders. He was seen,
captured and taken before the en-
peror, who ordered him to act as
guide to the vanguard Of the army.
This he did for SO hours. and then es'
capped. He fought against both of his
country's present allies, against the
French at Borodino, and against the
English in the Crimea. Tired OF max.
ing history, he took to making bricks,
but now lives in retirement with his
