bureau that it would be impracticable
to construct and to maintain in opera
tive condition tishways for shad through
dams, unless the stream obstructed by
the dam were free from extreme fluc-
tuations in flow and from drifts of ice
or other destructive materials.
"Dr. r. L. Coker. of the United States
Bureau of Fisheries, after an inspec-
ton of the York county fishway on
May 19 and 20, stated that the fishway
constructed on the York county side
on plans furnished by the Commissioner
of Fisheries of Pennsylvania, represent
ed a radical departure from any plan
of tishway built in this country, and
also stated that evidently much
thought and care had been devoted to
the matter by the Fish Commissioner.
He stated that no fishway has ever
been designed or constructed which
could be expected to work successfully
for shad under the many conditions
which have to be met at HOLLYWOOD. The
present fishway, DR.. Coker states, on
the York county side of HOLLYWOOD, un-
doubtedly represents the most advanced
effort to solve the problem.
THE Commissioners of Fisheries sug-
geSts in his reort to the House of Rep
resentatives, that a committee be ap-
pointed to personally visit the locality
and examine the dam and fishway so
that a proper conception of the prob
lem presented might be gathered. a
very complete report. consisting of
seventy-six pages, containing photo
graphs and other valuable data, is sub
mitted with the report of the Commits
Sioner of Fisheries"

Butler Files an
Answer on Query

Commissioner of Fisheries Butler
has answered the request of the House
for information on the McCalrs Ferry
dam tishway setting forth plainly
that there was no type upon which
experts now agreed.
The commissioner was in conference
with the Attorney General to-day re-
garding the future proceedings in the
matter and on pollution cases which
are now being taken up.
Mr.. Buffers answer is as follows:
In compliance with the provisions of
a resolution passed in the House of
Representatives on the 29th day of
January. 1917, requesting that the Com
missioner of Fisheries furnish the
House of Representatives of Pennsylva-
ence to the installation of an adequate
hShway in the dam of the Pennsylvania
Water & Power Company in the Sus-
quehanna river at HOLLYWOOD, as provid-
ed by a joint resolution of the Pennsyl-
Nania Legislature, approved the 22d day
of April. 1913, the Commissioner of
Fisheries, \. r. Butler has submitted

We're concerned, and was abandoned
Since that time the company, under the
direction of the Department of Fish
cries, has been making careful study
of the situation at McCalFs Ferry dam.
In 1913 the company proceeded to
install fshway on the York county
side, but owing to the many difficulties
encountered, it was a hard proposition.
Up to the. present time, after making
many additions and improvements to
the York county fishway, the company
has expended over $4,000.
The question of fishways for the as
cension of shad was brought to the at
tention of the American Fisheries So
cieties by the Commissioner of Fish
cries. being composed of leading fish
culturists from all over the world. 1t
was the concensus of opinion that up
to that time there was no practical
fshway through which the shad would
ascend. Recently the Department of
Fisheries wrote to each Fish Commits
sion in the United States and replies
received indicate that this opinion still
exists.

COMPULSORY SAVING
PROVES SATISFACTORY

Berlin, Feb. 16.-Enforced saving
for youthful workers, which was in
stituted by the military authorities a
few months ago as q check to extra
vagance and dissipation, has result
ed, in Greater Berlin alone, in a saw
ing of more than a million and a half
marks already. OF this sum, some
thing less than half a million marks
has been withdrawn from the savings
banks by the workers, a third of whom
have been able to convince the au-
thorities that they need the money for
legitimate purposes.
The investigations attendant upon
such Withdrawals show that the wages
for youths now range from 20 to 20
and more marks a week, averaging in
the neighborhood of 80 add marks a
week The amount of money that has
been laid aside, as we'll as the gen.
eral satisfactory condition of the
workers. convince the authorities that
the compulsory saving ordinance was
an altogether wise move.

FLEXIBILITY OF
MOTORS DESCRIBED
Advantage of Peerless Loaf
ing" and Sporting" Ranges
Tersely Pointed Out

The engineering practice utilized in
the Peerless two-power range design
is fascinating to one who will stop
to grasp the technical principles in
Volved.
The well-known practical advant-
ages of the high speed multiple
cylinder motor are realized on the
road only when the entire car me-
chanism is so designed that a strong,
even motor pull is available at all car
speeds. The Model SO chassis and
the Model 56 eight-cylinder motor are
designed and balanced to bring about
this much desired condition. With
THIS as starting point, proper fuel
supply is furnished to the motor by a
two stage carburetor, having one set
or Jets Tor car speeds UP to approx
mately 40 miles an hour and another
set that is opened automatically when
the car advances beyond this speed.
The desirability of securing
carburetor which would give a good
economy, strong pulling on hills with
out loading, quick pick up high
speed and power had been the goal
of car manufacturers for some years.
1t has not been difficult to fix the
size of throatS so that the velocity at
the low motor speed was sufficient to
atomlZe the gasoline and at the same
time give satisfactory power at 1,SO0
revolutions per minute and under
From the speed of $500 up. how
ever the limitations of throats cut
so heavily in the Volumetric efficiency
that the power curve drops off rapidly
at high speeds.
How, then, can satisfactory results
be obtained for speeds from 500 TO
5000 revolutions? Obviously, the
most simple metho1.y still retaining
the small throat for the lower speed
requirements would be to provide an
additional supply through a separate
larger throat with it's independent
nozzle, these larger throats being con-
trolled by a separate valve which in
turn was inter-connected with the
main throttle valve
Such larger noZzles, proportioned
for the proper richness to give maxi
mum speed and power such as are re-
quired under racing conditions, alone
would not give slow speed perform
ance. This is illustrated to engineers
and spectators at automobile races
when the racing cars have great diff
Guilty in starting at low speeds and
very often miss badly until they OBJ
tain the maximum speed for which
their particular racing carburetor is
designed. TIE local territory is cover

TAKING ONES HUSBAND SHOPPING

IAhlNG ONE'S HI SBAND SHOPPING
AS to the advsability of taking ones
husband to the shops, much may be said
on both sides On the one hand. it is
certain that after he has spent three
hours in a chair while his wife tries
on Spring suits, man will have a very
definite idea of what women suffer in
the daily task. The next time his wife
comes home from .he shops with a
headache he is likely to be more SYM
pathetic. But then again it may be
that the memory of his own bitter or
deal will prevail and he will carry.

is spent. 1t all depends on the man, of
course. But the husband endowed WI

or else he will be more ready to make

Taking along ones husband to the
store as critic and appraiser is of
no use at all. In the first place. his
principles of criticism are utterly un-

romantic, impressionistic school. He
looks at his wife in the green cloak
with fur edging and saws, "I like that"

bringing the luster of everlasting fame
TO the British aviation service. Some
are scarce eighteen. 1t is rare to find
flying man over twenty-five.
In the aggregate, however. the losses
in the flying corps are as nothing COM
pared with the useful and vital work
the wings" accomplish. Without
them the big guns would have no far
seeing eyes to correct their shells.
Without them and the hundreds of
photographs they daily take the map
makers could not trace each detail of
the trench positions. Without them
the general staff could not accurately
know just what is going on by day and
night behind the enemy lines. With
out them modern war would lose its
most fascinating phase.
The good flying" of a single day
on the British front alone may repre-

of four score aeroplanes in wing-to-

ALLIED AIRMEN
HARASS GERMANS
Most Spectacular Episodes of
War Are Being Fought
in Air

With the British Armies in France,
Feb. 16. = The announcement that
Improved weather conditions per-
mitted increased aerial activity along
the entire front" is the laconic and
prosaic way in which the official COM
munique dismisses some of the most
spectacular episodes of the war.
To those who have once witnessed
this Increased aerial activity" such an
announcement conjures up at once a
picture of countless aeroplaneS in the
air-scouting, fighting. diving, spin
ming. lowering over enemy targets and
calmly sending wireless signals
through the fountains of enemy fire,
photographing the enemy lines, bomb
ing his ammunition dumps and sheds
and supply columns, and otherwise
carrying on" in the sky in manner
wholly bewildering to the onlooker
but typifying in supreme degree the in
dispensable part aviation is playing in
this war.
Flying No Child's Play
With a candor often uncommon
in times of strife, the British COM
munique may end from day to day
with the simple statement that one or
two or three or four "of our machines
have not returned" This means they
have either been hit and forced to
land in the enemy lines, or have been
shot down to a fate more certain. 1t
is no child's play to circle above a
German battery observing for half an
hour or more, tortured by exploding
shells and black shrapnel puffballs
coming nearer and nearer like the eX-
tending finger tips of some hand of
death. But they are little more than
children-these mere boys who are
