Japanese. Superheaters

Japan has adopted superheated locomo-
tives extensively. Occidental practice has
been applied here, although it is interest
ing TO note that about 1902-'03, when the
Schmidt superheater was coming into gen
eral use, a smoke-box superheater was
manufactured for trial purposes in Japan
hut the test did not develop the desired re-
suits. The adoption Of the Schmidt super
heater on japanese railways dates from
1911, why some engines ordered from
Germany were put in service on the state
railways. These were followed by other
locomotives ordered from America. Be-
cause of English influence the continuous
vacuum brakes were adopted and are now
in general use.-From The Rail'ooy Age

Impenitent Robbers and
Murderers

TN AN article which he entities "Our
Sons Have Shown Us God" which ap-
peared in "The National Review"
John S. Carroll fays German theologians
and the whole broader notion Of loving
ones enemies" He grapples with the naked
elements, sin and punishment, finding that
Germany is not meekly to be forgiven for
the atrocities committed in this war-that
genuine repentance and condonement must,
from a religious point of view, be de-
manded. He writes
"The plain truth is that it is time to de-
nland that our theologians regain the true
Christian conscience in the matter of sin and
its punishment. One is struck by the way in
which so many Christian teachers discuss the
war without one word of burning indignation
against the unspeakable sin and crime such
as Christ spoke to the scrbes and Pharsees
here is abroad among our Teutonized the
ologians q shoddy Christianity, cheap and
worthless charity, which will not hear word
Of just retribution upon these brigands and
murderers. They declare that TO think OF
such thing is un-Christian and inhuman.
Canon Robinson, indeed, asks for what he
calls 'UlaLeIlal guarantees dkdlIot hHc ANPtbA-

ers should recognize that there are three
moral conditions of forgiveness, human as
well as divine. The first is plain repentance
OF the sinner; even God, as Dante says, can

three conditions also Of the natural con-
tcence. The amazing and discouraging thing

That All Great Wars Are Holy

nothing of the great ethnic turmoils that
redden the history Of Asia! Was the French

"A HENTION of the "Gothas" in the
MI recent air raids on London calls
attention to the newest and most
formidable German fighting and bombing
plane. This machine, capable Of carry
ing two or three men, and so arranged
that three machine guns may also be oper-
ated in turn by two of the men, is distin-
guished particularly for its ''gun tunnel"
device which makes the customary 'un-
der the tail" attack Of an enemy airman
very dangerous for the attacker.
As explained in THE Aerial Age Week
w." the new Gotha biplane has been found
enc of the most difficult machines to at
tack because it has no blind spot" On
the other hand, the under side of the
Gotha is so constructed that an attacker
until very close cannot tell whether or not
the Gotha has a gun tunnel, and so very
often maneuvring for position exposes
him to a deadly raking fire from above.
The Gotha is now the largest of the
German machines, and is considered most
effective when it is in position to deliver
an overwhelming machine gun fire upon
number of attacking planes. On the other
hand, when it is attacked by an equal num-
her of guns carried desperately by swift
and easy maneuvring fighting planes it
lecomes less formidable and a COMPARE
lively slow target. 1t carries twin motors
of the Mercedes type, six-cylinder and each
developing $50 horsepower.
In strong contrast with this fighting ma
chine is the giant Caproni triplane, brought
to this country by the Italians and recently
demonstrated in fights from Newport
News to Washington. 1t is driven by three

lers, any one of which can keep the ma

4 PURE type of pueblo ruin is made
~ the subject of an interesting article
in art and Archaeology" a maya
zine devoted to "the arts throughout the
ages" The article, written by j. Walter
Fewkes, is in part as follows:
"The aborgines of North America may be
culturally classified by their differences in
language, myths and ceremonials. One group,
universally recognized, consisted of people
speaking several distinct languages, is dis
tnguished by the character of the buildings
i inhabits, and is called the Pueblo group.
This division includes the house builders,
ancient and modern, of Colorado, Utah and
New Mexico, but not all sedentary peoples,
who dwell in pueblo-like houses. As is true
Of other cultural areas that have been in
habited for any considerable time by stone
house builders, we find among pueblos both
pure and mixed types of architecture; the
latter modified by acculturation with alien
tribes. The pure type is a terraced,
compact building, composed Of rectangular
ard circular rooms, without plazas, streets or
courts.
"The ruins of stone buildings found in
Southern Colorado and Utah, or in adjacent
regions of New Mexico and Arizona. belong
ing TO this type. include the best aboriginal
buildings in North America. The type is pre-
historic and had ceased to be inhabited when
cur Southwest was discovered by white men.
This type originated in Southwestern Colo
RADIO and spread from the region of its origin,
south and west, and in the course of its
diffusion in these directions was modified by
contact with foreigners. The features of the
Pure type Of building were lost, its masonry
degenerated, and stones difficult to fashion

it may well be regarded as significant, and
comparisons of it with other ruins, especially
the later or modified type, are important

the walls of the court. The building orlgi-
nally rose to the height of 20 feet, and

THE SECRET OF
SUCCESSFUL BAKINGS

Many women entertain the idea that
they can never become thoroughly
good cooks. They may be perfectly
able to prepare meats and vegetables
properly. Still they make a miserable
failure of bakings. When one gives the
matter serious consideration it he
comes evident that the fault rests
nor in faulty baking powder than
careless or haphazard baking methods.
This must be true. For it is a well
known fact that housewives who en-
ploy Calumet Baking Powder are
highly successful. They do not know
the meaning of bake day failure. Even
girls who never before attempted to
bake a cake-a batch of doughnuts-
biscuits-or cookies employ Calu-
met and turn out bakings that rival
those of experienced cooks. This abb
solute dependability Of Calumet-the
unfailing leavening force-that makes
all women good bakers of biscuits
and pastries-has made Calumet the
greatest seller of all baking powders

other brand.
