Old Tin.

The expensiveness OF pure tin ac'
counts for the care with which 1t is
handled. 1t is astonishing how little
tin can be made to cover thousands OF
cans. Yet tin would be still more ex.
pensive than ii is had not the following
process been invented for its recovery
at very low cost: Great heaps of empty
cans preferably washed and dried by
mechanical meansJ are piled up In an
alright room. Warm chlorine gas Is
forced into the room, where 1t reaches
every nook and corner of the cans.
The warm gas has tendency to unite
with tin and form tin chloride, a nigh
" volatile liquid The mixture OF
gases, consisting of air. free chlorine
and the vapor Of tin chloride. is passed
through a condenser. where the TIN
chloride is separated from the other
gases, and by a simple chemical proc
ess the absolutely pure tin is precip-
itated.-New York World.

Interesting Teachers
Institute on Saturday

There a a large attendance of
teachers and friends interested in
education at the regular county insti-
tute; held at the Idle Hour last Sat
urday under the direction of County
Superintendent Sara Reeve.
Among the out-of-town speakers
who delivered interesting and in
| structive addresses were State Sup
erintendent C. H. Lugg and Profess
sor b. E. McProud of the State col
lege.
Professor McProud spoke particu-
fairly with reference no the social
aspect of the community, while Pro-
lessor Lugg dealt more especially
with regard to the altogether too
common practice of instilling into
the mind of the pupils that they are
receiving thei %reducation largely so
that they won't have to perform the
manual toll that their parents were
called upon to render. This, thinks
Professor Lugg, has a tendency to
create romeo impressions, be-
sides it lowers the dignity of labor.
Mis- Reeve spoke concerning the
school room, the arrangement, the
need of sanitation, means for assur-
ing cleanliness. etc.
Among the others taking part in
the days program were Mrs. F. c.
Hasman and Mrs. w. o. Gilruth in
vocal selections and Mrs. e. e. De-
Croft in readings, whose contribu-
tons, both as to the solos and the
readings, were pleasing features of
the session and greatly appreciated
by the large audience.

1t is a question Of chance
May Ram the snbmarine.

The submarine usually has two
small guns which it may elect to FIRE.
Unless the submarine Is stationary
this fire is likely to be extremely in
accurate. The submarine may dis.
charge torpedoes. Their chance Of
striking home Is lessened by the feet
that the target is approaching head
on. Again, a torpedo might be de.
fiected BY the rush of water at the
bow.
II the submarine elects to dive, its
safety obviously is d question of
time. The probabilities are that al
submarine thus attacked would im-.
mediately begin to dive. Also 1t
would discharge two or more torpe-
does. And it would alter IT'S course
IN precisely the same method that.
merchant vessels should use In try
ing To to elude IL.
