Many little details enter into the
makeup of house and determine the
impression that the average observer
receives in looking at it. The porch
on the house shown here will perhaps
cause more effect on every one than
any other exterior feature. It's rather
hard to describe just why thing
looks coy, but this porch certainly
has an inviting, coy appearance. This
is probably due to the broad, low roof
and the heavy pillars at the corners of
the porch and at each side of the front
stairs. The heavy construction Of the
porch railing between the pillars also
gives an artistic touch to the porch.
Very often too little time is spent
ON the design of porches because they
gre not considered important enough
to waste much time on. In many eli
mates the porch does not get very

Remarkable Shooting of Big

Much Interest

Sixteen members of the Naval Con-

tary of the Navy Daniels.
Approximately 80 hits we're scored
by the u. S. S. Texas, one member OF
the board stated, out of so shots fired.

en- shots and No. 2 turret 10 hits out
of 10 shots. The other turrets made
equally splendid records.
The close target record, said w.
L. Saunders of the American Institute
of Mining Engineers and yice-chair-
man of the consulting board. was
really remarkable Three shots were
fired from the Texas at small tar
get three feet square at miles dis
lance. The target was being towed at
five knots an hour and the ship was
running 10 knots on an opposite
course Two of the shots were bulls
eyes and the third scratched the edge
of the target"
The night firing and battle practise
by the Minnesota and other ships was
said to have made profound impress
sion on members of the board.

Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
Has Plan to Get Practise
More Accurate

Using old torpedo boats as targets
for the big battleships, the crews to
abandon them. as soon as proper speed
and direction had been secured, is the
unique plan of battle practise pro-
posed by Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Roosevelt, according to the
Philadelphia Ledger's correspondent
In Washington. Roosevelt would
speed the obsolete vessels to 20 or
% knots an hour and head them
toward the battlesAips.
II have proposed to several Off
GERS, he said, that instead of anchor
ing obsolete vessels 70 be shot at, We
get up a good head of steam and start
them directly toward the battleships.
AS soon as the obsolete vessels are
under way the crews can abandon
them The targets can make 20 or %
knots an hour, so it would be a real
test for thec battleships TO figure out

their range and sink them, especially
in night practise. -.
Some officers disapproVe on the
ground that it would be dangerous to
attempt to get the crews off, but they
could leave the torpedo boats just as
soon as the ships had been started
toward the battleships AS it is now
ii is impossible to tow target faster
than six OF eight miles an hour" =
Private adyices from commissioned
officers in the Atlantic fleet show that
much of the criticism that has been
directed at the navy because of its
failure in the past to hit targets with
shells from big guns, will be elimi-
rated by the results of the recent bat
tie practise. ~ .... .. -
1t is learned that exceptionally good
results have been obtained by. shoot
ing at such small targets as obsolete
torpedo boats at comparatively long
ranges, and during the recent maneW
ers it was officially reported that the
Pennsylvania, with a broadside of II
guns, hit a target with five shells at a
range of IL sea miles. :. ..:.. j.

FURNISHINGS OF
TEAkH00b ftBE
IN new VESSELS
Plan Under Way in Navy For
Procuring 100000
Feet of It

Negotiations are in progress In the
bureau of supplies and accounts OF the
Navy Department for the purchase of
100000 feet of teak logs, which guam
tity it is hoped to obtain so as to utt
lie II as one cargo for collier re-
turning from Asiatic waters after the
delivery of coal at Manila, says the
Army and Navy Register.
Some doubt has been expressed
whether ii is possible to obtain teak
in such an amount, inasmuch as 1t re-
quires the permission OF the British
government for its expectation. The
100000 feet will be sufficient, Il Is
estimated, to provide material needed
by the ships which are embraced In
the authorization Of new construction
in the latest appropriation act.
If lesser quantity must be purchas-
ed it will consist of a lot Of 10000
feet. The lowest complete bid OF sew
en- proposals was that of Charles Este
of Philadelphia for ,delivery at Ran
COON in 790 days at $l55 per thousand
feet
