NITROGENN NEEDED
FOR i. S. DEFENSE
Electrical Engineers in Ses-
sion Here Discuss Importance
of Developing Industry.
DANGER AT PRESENT
With Foreign Source of Supply Cut of
U. S. Would Be Handicapped
Delegates Are Told.
DANGER ATPRESENT

National Safety demands the develop
ment of a nitrogen hxation industry as
a means Of producing the prime ingredi-
ent for ammunition" asserted W. r.
Whitney, Of Schenectady. N. Y, in an
address before the American Institute
of Electrical Engineers at the New Will
lard last night. This industry" he said,
"also would furnish a supply of fertilizer
and Of chemicals needed in the dye stun
industry"
He pointed out the danger in having
to depend on foreign sources OF supply
which in time of war might be cut OF.
and without which not a gun could be
hred. Continuing he said:
Two great processes for the produc-
ton OF fixed nitrogen from the atmos-
phere have been offered TO the govern
ment within the past two weeks. They
sre'the Dupont process and the cysnimid
process Of the Cyanimid Company. Both
are OF the greatest public Importance.
Nitrate is Needed.
Judging by past events, 1 think we
are justified in imagining conditions
which might effectively interfere with
our continued supply OF nitrogen. II
We cannot shoot a gun, explode a mine,
or FIRE a torpedo without nitrate, we
ought to be sure of our nitrate before
we are forced in to war. We need pow
der before we need soldiers or guns"
The financial aspect Of the water power
situation was the subject Of an address
by Gano Dunn. of New York. He as
serted that popular prejudice and mis-
apprehension have prevented proper de-
yelopment Of the country's water power
resources.
An earned plea for development Of the
water power resources was made by
speakers at the afternoon session. John
J. McCarty, president Of the association,
opened the meeting with more than 800
delegates in attendance
Lawrence Addicks, president OF the
Electro-Chemlcal Society. spoke on cleo
tro-chenical industries and their inter
est in the development of water power.
DR.. AHerton S. Cushman, OF Washing
ton. director Of the institute of industrial
research. spoke on the water power de-
velopment and the food problem.
Lewis B. Stilwell, of New York. dis
cussed the relation OF water power to

Speed Upon the Water.

A boat has been designed by D. N.
Brown of Grand Haven, Mich, which
on test runs has attained a speed of
40 miles an hour, says Popular Sci
ence. The body of the craft is made
of thin galvanized iron over a bass
wood framework two feet wide and
twenty feet long. Two galvanized iron
air tanks are attached to an outrigger
five feet from the rear end on both
sides. When the four-cylinder motor,
set in the rear, whirls a six-inch pro-
peller, the PROV rises out of the water
and the craft skins along like huge
bird over the surface, the entire
weight resting on about three feet of
the stern. The two tanks maintain
the equilibrium.
The boat has proved a success in all
WAYS, and the inventor believes, with
an improved design, that he will have
n craft capable of making GO miles
en- hour without being crowded.

Attesting their loyalty to the land
of their nativity and as an expression

Before the gift can be officially ten
dered, however, permission must be
obtained from the royal household.
The clock is feet high and IA
by ii inches at the base. Surmount-
ing the entire clock is globe with
a bronze and silver meridian ring
encircling the earth at the equator.

Advice From Seventy Years AGO.

To young ladies, who, regardless Of
hard times, deck themselves as if for
the sacriicial altar: Ladies must re-
collect that because their male friends
do not tell their pecuniary dis
tresses, it does not follow that they
are at ease in these troublesome times.
Many man worth his thousands is
"cramped" now. Ladies': Be econom-
ical; lay off your rings, put on your
soiled slippers, resume and mend your
rent gowns. We call on females to
practice economy, to cut off extrava-
gances, regulate your expenses-cur-
tail your wants, and show your affec-
tionate husbands, kind brothers and
fond fathers that you are ready to
hear a recital of their troubles, that
you will sympathize with them, and if
necessary resign luxuries, and do it
with a good grace, and have none the
less smiles for them for what they
would gladly avoid and what they are
not to blame for enduring.-From the
British-American Cultivator, Toronto,
June, 1913.

ALARM THAT WAS NEEDLESS
Mothers of Soldier Boys Exercised
Themselves Without Cause over
Subject of Food Supplies.

The days of waiting for the word to
mory at New York were touched with
the pathos and humor which accom-
pany high-tension times. On the eve
of entraining when the mothers had
begged and wheedled in vain for adj
mission at the front door of the
armory, they fiocked to the Lexington
avenue side, the back door. Here they
surged at full tide.
AS a heavy truck backed up they
shifted the strong odOr of coffee. The
wagon was piled with sacks of it. One
of the mothers turned sorrowful face
to her companion.
"What! Everyone of those bags full
of coffee?" she asked. "Oh, dear Cof-
fee makes Alfred so nervous he can't
sleep a wink"
Then came an enormous bread wag-
on following the coffee load into the
dark armory. The smell of newly
baked bread floated through the over
wrought group.
"All that fresh bread?" queried an
other mother. you mean warm bread,
just out of the oven? Well, l can see
where Herbert is sick right away. Ii
there is one thing he can't eat it is
new bread"
She borrowed a pencil. The mes
sage on the card to be relayed to the
soldier by the door guard read: Her
bert, don't let me hear of your eating
any of this warm, fresh bread. You
know you will be ILL.,"

BELGIAN BELLS WAR VICTIMS
Famous Towers and cariIlons in Un.
fortunate Country Have Been De-
stroyed in the Conflict.

Among the many unfortunate con-
sequences of the European war is the
destruction of many of the bell towers
and carillons of Belgium. Mr.. William
Gorham Rice, in his "Carillons of Bel
GUM and Holland" explains that the
carillons are a set of tower bells at
tuned to intervals of the chromatic
scale. Sometimes there are more than
four octaves of bells, the lowest sew
eral tons in weight, whereas the small
est scarcely weighs twenty pounds.
The bells are connected with key
board by means Of which the perform
er causes their clappers to strike the
inside of their sound bow, or with
clockwork mechanism that causes q
hammer to strike the outside.
The correspondent of London
newspaper, describing a recital CIV
en- by Joseph Denyn, municipal CARL
lonneur of Mechlin (Malines), wrote:
'Tn these northern countries the day
is long in August, and it was still twi-
light. Against the southern sky rose
the broad, rugged tower of st. Rom
bold's. High up near the top of the
tower shone a faint light After the
clock ceased striking and the yibra-
ton of its deep and solemn tones had
died away, there was silence. So long
a silence it seemed that we wondered
IL it was ever to be broken.
'Then, pianissimo, from the highest,
lfghtest bells, as if very gently shaken
from the sky itself, came trills and
runs that were angelic. Rapidly they
grew in volume and majesty as they
descended the scale, until the entire
heavens seemed full of music.
''Seated in the garden, we watched
the little light in the tower, where we
knew the unseen carillonneur sat at
his clavier, and yet we somehow felt
that the music came from somewhere
far above the tower, and was pro-
duced by superhuman hands. Some
times In winter there comes a thaw,
and one by one the icicles tinkle
down; gently and timidly at first, then
louder and louder, until, like an ava
lanche, the largest ones crash down
with q mighty roar. All that the
music suggested.
''It was low, 1t was loud; it was
from one bell, and it was from chords
of bells; 1t was majestic, it was SIM
pie. And every note seemed to fall
from above, from such heights that
the whole land heard it's melody.
Sometimes the sounds were so
faint and delicate that we found our
selves bending forward to hear them.
At other times, great chords, in the
volumes of many organs, burst forth

Cat Dives for Frogs.

Warren Clement of Millvale, while
at work in his bayfield,, heard a loud
splash in a pond near by, and think
ing that perhaps horse maekerel had
