CURIOUS FACT LITTLE KNOWN
But u 10 Easily Possible for One 10
Boil and Freeze Water al the
Same Time.

II IL n curious fact that water may
DO boiled and frozen at the same time.
The temperature at which water boils
depends simply upon the air pressure
upon its surface, II there b. high
pressure, the water must be rendered
a good deal hotter In order that II
may boil than would be the case II .
low pressure.
In mountainous regions. where the
air pressure Is a good deal lower than
al sea level. water boils easily at q
low temperature. In cooking ye1e.
tables that require q certain degree Of
heat, when the water boils before that
degree OF heat 10 attained. the vege-
tables will not get done Conse-
ouently, they must DO placed In a
closed boiler. no that the generated
steam will create sufficient pressure
for the water 10 boil at or beyond the
required temperature.
In the experimental proof OF this
fact the water Ia placed In a vessel
and the air is exhausted from above
the surface of the wafer. Az the proc
ess Of pumping continues the water
win boil violently. the steam CONCEAL
ing on the sides OF the exhaust vessel.
II the pumping Is continued for SUIT
ficient period, and the outside is cooled
below the freezing point, the water will
continue to boil and bubble. until II Ia
frozen into = snowy mass OF Ice.
The fact Is utilized In the estimation
OF the height OF mountains. Ordinarily
at sea level. where the pressure Ia
about 30 inches Of mercury. water bolts
at 2l7 degrees Fahrenheit. Now. II
II 10 noticed that at n certain place II
boils a few degrees lower. the height
OF that place may be easily sscertained
By the comparison with table made
out for this purpose
In general. for every degree the boil

We have seen that 1t is easily possible for the
est submarines to cross the Atlantic from the
European continent to shores. The travelling
radius of 1000 miles mentioned for these vessels
would permit them to cross and leave them margin
or about 5000 miles for manoeuvring up and down
our coasts: This, of course, would give them enor
nous possibilities of doing injury shipping,
merce and warships.
Along our vast and thnly populated coast there are
thousands OF bays creeks nlets and islands where
patrol vessels

larry great number of such hiding places
for considerable detour out to sea- is about $50
miles. The submarine, after her transatlantic
from her hiding place on the Maine coast to New
York before exhaustng her original supply of fuel.
Boston would be within much easier distance.
The southern part of Atlantic coast also offers
an abundance of hiding places from which the prin-
cpa ports of the South and the Gulf could be terror
lied The Sea Islands of South Carolina would fur
nsh practically undiscoverable hiding places Then
there are the Bahama Islands, five hundred in
number and mostly uninhabited, stretching from
Florida to the West Indies Here any number of sub
marines could hide in safety
Inc submarine could not only come here and oper.
ate for considerable time with her original supply
OF fuel. but there are many methods by which her
supplies could be renewed and she could be enabled
TO keep up her predatory operations indefinitely.
The commonest procedure by the Germans is to
engage small steamships. generally trawlers flying
neutral flags. to supply the submarines with fuel. The
submarine comes to the surface, pipe line Is run
from the tender tanks and the oil fuel pumped
IN TO guard against such procedure by an enemy
we should need a much larger navy than have and
constant vigilance among our patrolling vessels.
!here are. of course, other ways In which the
predatory submarines could be maintained Spies and
agents OF the enemy living in country could
convey oil and provisions the submarines in their
secret lurking places Our coast is vast and so
poorly watched that it would be much easier to con-
duct such operations here than in Europe.

ut is fact that it would be perfectly possible for
fola of German submarines to negotiate the trans
Atlantic passage and maintain itself off our coast by
of secret bases in the West Indies, or even on
the very coast of the United States ITSELF By filling its
ballast tanks with oil in place of water at the start of
it's voyage by travelling at slow speed the surface
by night, and even by day when vessels were in
sight, it would be possible for of the largest sub
marines to reach coast with of oil fuel suf
ficicnt for several days cruising submarine base
for repenishment of oil supplies would be very small
affair." and it could be snugy located some unfre-
quented stretch Of coast especially in the North;
and the refng of oil tanks could be done at night
is as we'll to remember that a surprise submarine
attack within our harbors and naval bases is to-day
physically practicable"-
