MAKE PLACE FOR VOLUNTEERS
Men Hastily Drawn Together Have
Proved Themselves Equal to the
Task of Defending Country.

An incident in connection with
the water supply at New York states
hastily prepared mobilization camp
at Beekman recently demonstrates
the ability of the civilian engineer in
the National Guard to cope with the
special problems incident to mill
tary service, asserts the Engineering
Record. The troops were obtaining
all their drinking water from a wei
at a homestead just acros the way
from division headquarters. The
commanding officer wished to be alb
solutely sure that the source was
safe. A captain recommended for
this work Private Nabstedt, an engi-
neer who has had considerable eXpe-
rience in water supply and sewage
work. He was detailed to make a
thorough examination of the site,
and in a four-page report, accompa-
MED by a map drawn to scale, he
indicated all possible sources of pol
luton at the well, and made recon-
mendations for their prevention.
Samples of the water were carefully
taken and shipped to New York for
analysis. Private Nabstedt recon-
mended hat the area in the vicinity
of the well be disinfected, that the
water be drawn by means of a short
length of pipe and a three-way valve
at a point some distance from the
pump-so ms to reduce the possibility
of debris falling into the water-and
that a guard be stationed at the well
to enforce the sanitary regulations
prescribed. Colonel Lucas promptly
issued orders based on these recon-
mendations. Thus work which, in
civil practice, would call for the serv-
ice of a consulting engineer, was
done by a mar from the ranks.

AIR BUBBLES PROTECT PIER
Great Waves at EI seoundo, in Call
fornia, Are Now Broken UP by a
Unique Device.

One of the most unique and Sue
ccssful methods for protecting a pier
during a storm is in use at Eel Seq
undo. Cal, the Pathindec states.
The pier there extended mere than
1000 feet into the bay, but a violent
storm some time ago carried nearly
half of it away and rocked the re-
naming structure to such an extent
that people feared it, too. would soon
90.
As FL SegundO is one of the great
shipping ports of California, it was
recognized as vital to the interests
Of the community that the pier be
preserved if possible. With this end
in Wow a four-inch perforated pipe
was laid in the bay about AS feet be-
vond the end of the wharf and paral-
lei to it.
Each end of this pipe was coupled
to other pipes running back to the
pier and attached to two air COM
pressors. Additional piping was laid
around the end of the pier and also
connected with the compressors,
making in all more than 800 feet.
Now when a storm comes up and
waves begin to roll in, the cor
pressors are started working, causing
innumerable air bubbles to rise to
the surface from the perforated
pipes. Almost instantly the waves
often IS feet high-are broken up
into myriads of tiny wavelets no
larger than those seen on a quiet
summer day, while farther out, be-
yond the protected area the waves
roll as high as ever.
As the pier is a costly structure,
the owners do not feel that they are
subjected to IN unduly heavy expense
in protecting it in this manner.

THE MOTHER OF TO-DAY.

The mother of today, the formed
woman of about t%hirty-ive, has made
a great leap and resembles her chill
dren much more than she does her
mother. Her offspring do not say,
what is home without a mother ?
Peace, perfect peace" She is a little
too conspicuous, perhaps; she has
turned her back rather rudely upon
her mothers pursuits, such as tea
and scandal, and has taken too viru-
lently to lectures on evolution and
proteid. She is too vivid, like a
newly painted railing, but like the
railing, she will tone down. She pre-
tends to be very socialistic OF very
fast on the whole, she affects rather
the fast style. We must not COM
