THE FIRST SUBMARINE
WAS UNABLE TO MOVE

INTEREST always seems attached to
first things" and first times"
Wherever a device looms large or bulks
large in the affairs of the world some
man with well developed bump of
for the origin and the originator of the
device or the first thing of it's kind"
Whenever any achievement or act COM
pels the attention of the world, another
man, or perhaps the same man with
the well developed bump of curiosity,
begins to read back into the archives
of human affairs for the purpose of
telling the world when such and such
an act was committed or accomplished
for 1.-The first time"
These comments are suggested be-
cause one of these seekers for first
things claims to have discovered that
the first submarine was built in 1873
by a Frenchman named De Son. The
story has it that it was successful in
every way except that it would not
run, which was a very serious defect.
The boat, so the designer claimed,
would be operated under water with a
clockwork motor. and would hold an
air supply for the crew sufficient for
three hours. An old notice of this I'M
dersea boat, which was resurrected
from moldy manuscripts Of the six
teenth century, reads as follows: THE
inventor of this ship will undertake to
destroy in a single day hundred yes
sells, and such destruction could not be
prevented by fire. storm, bad weather
or the force Of the waves, saving only
that the Almighty should otherwise
will 1t. Vain would it be for ships
lying in harbor to be regarded as safe,
for the inventor could reach anywhere
unless prevented by betrayal. None but
him could control the craft. Therefore
it may truly be called the lightning of
the sea. Its power shall be proved by
a trip to the East Indies in six weeks
or to France and back in a day. for
fast as a bird fieth can one travel in
this boat"
The craft was built at Rotterdam,
but when launched the clockwork mo-
tor would not drive the paddlewheels.
that the automobile goes much farther
back into history than people generally
understand. 1t has been written that
the "horseless carriage" is older than
the steam locomotive, and has been
gradually developed since 1870, when a
Frenchman named Cugnot was the first
to make a vehicle to actually run upon
the road by it's own power. This car
rage was propelled by a tiny steam
engine and was able to run about two
miles an hour. His invention was fur
Their developed by others, including
Murdoch, in 1884 Other men inter-
ested in steam traction, like Trevilhick
and Stephenson, experimental with the
wheeled vehicle driven on dirt roads by
means of the steam engine. The idea
of rails for the vehicle to run on was
born of the difficulties which the steam
carriage encountered on soft roads and
hills.

Old Women.
From the Portland Oregonian.

From the Portland OregOnian.
Boston. which is commonly supposed
to know everything, has been COM
PEELED to go to New York for an
answer to the question when does a
woman cease to be young" The New
York Globe, after many searchings
of the brain, is disposed to reply that
Of woman never grows old as long
as her heart is young. Such women
may be fifty or sixty or seventy years
old. as mere time is reckoned. but their
hearts are filed with love. their souls
absorb the sunshine of life and their
breasts are always ready TO pillow
the head of crying baby" and, tri-
umphantly cries the Globe. they are
never old"
We agree that they never ought to
be. In better-regulated world they
would always be young and fair. The
beauty OF their souls goes far to keep
orr the devouring tooth of time even
III this imperfect sphere. but, do their
utmost. it finally seizes them and in
spite of all our poetical protestations
to the contrary the best of women
grow old and die. The rule is much
the same for both sexes. when the
almond tree shall flourish and the
grasshopper shall be a burden" the
| time is at hand for IMAM to 20 to his
| long home and the mourners to 20
about the streets"

THE GRIST.
Comparison Of College Graduates Of
This and Other Generations.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
Thousands upon thousands of young
men and women, more or less conscious
that after all education is not finished
but merely begun. are face to face
once more with commencement day. 1t
is a time to laugh and a time to cry,
according to the point of view. Many
of these young graduates will have
gained their sheepskins through the
sweat and self-denial of long years of
parental toll and of good honest hard
work upon their own part. Others of
them will have scraped through
the "eXams" somehow and loafed away
four years of time, knowing well that
they have no occasion to worry for the
future.
But on the whole the graduates of to-
day have better education than had
the graduates of the COS. They may
not reason more clearly or excel them
in accuracy, but they will have had a
good introduction to a much larger uni
verse. Half century ago classical
studies were the task of all, today
they are the choice of the few. Modern
languages haze been discovered by the
college world. So has English. The
''old grad" got a good deal of Latin
and Greek, some mathematics, a notion
of the heavenly bodies through a toy
telescope. little Scotch metaphysics.
a trifie of political economy and an i'm
preston that geology and zoology are
not exactly the same thing, together
with an antipathy to evolution. Grad
yates of today. if they are allowed to
speak at all, do not discuss 1.-THE In
fiuence of Skepticism upon Human
Happiness" as did the valedictorian of
Yale in 1920, Theodore Dwight Wool
sey, the future president of the college,
Upon the other hand there are a good
many college Mr.. Dooleys who might
write home just now as one is supposed
to have done not long ago: please
sind me tn money FIR these few bills,
which TIL same was spint FIR sochel
entertainments in TIL colledge course"
But all these things aside the under
graduate who has come into living con-
tact with a great personality cannot
escape acquiring some of the rudiments
of real education, and that college is
rich which has at least one such per-
sonality upon it's staff. He makes in
struction thrill with life, and few in
deed are the collegians who can go
out into the world and ever utterly
lose the resulting Impressions.

has retained it's original principle of
high angle fire and high trajectory.
The mortar was gun that could
give higher angle of fire and
more plunging fire than a howitzer. 1t
was a very short piece of ordnance,
fired from a platform and held down
by ropes Forts and mortar-boats used
it for getting a high angle of fire and
more plunging fire with larger shell
than could be had using a howitzer.
The range used to be obtained by vary
ing the power charge. At this day
mortars weighing at least four tons,
fitted with an elevating device and
range scale and with recoil and coun-
ter-recoil or recuperator devices, are
hauled around on wheels, set down on
platform also carried on wheels. and
producing vertical fire with a high ex-
plosive shell weighing $50 pounds with
Or without delay-action fuse.
The field gun for the purpose of fir
the reverse slope of ridges or across
hills, giving to Shrapnel the proper
slope of fall for effective distribution
and keeping the load light on the
horses has veered away from the gun
as developed in ship and fortress ar
tillery and in the direction of the
howitzerlike properties. Field guns
have had their trails split that the
breech may be further depressed, thus
giving them higher angle of fire de-
signed for use against air craft, and
in effecting useful compromise be-
tween power and mobility the trajec-
tory of shots from this gun is high
and the slope of fall quite steep. And
to further increase the howitzer effect
of field guns when that character of
fire is required the French army has
used and presumably is using in this
war fixed cannon cartridges made up
with half the usual powder charge
that the velocity of the projectile may
be reduced and it's slope of fall in
creased. The result is purchased at
the expense of range.
Guns of high power-high powder
pressure. high velocity and long range
have been built to give vertical fire
or nearly vertical elevation against
aeroplanes or dirigibles.
So. as announced, it is not an easy
question to decide just where gun,
howitzer and mortar divide.
