Gunboats, among the smallest Of
the warships, are classed with coast
defense vessels. They are of slight
draft and are used largely as auxil-
iaries. Arnored cruisers, which are
being supplanted by battle cruisers,
are larger than gunboats, are seago-
ing and are built for speed, for which
heavy armor and big guns are sscri-
feed. Battleships carry big guns and
heavy armor. Battle cruisers COM
bine the speed of the armored cruiser
with the big guns of the battleship
and have medium heavy armor. They
usually are larger than battleships,
among which, however, is distinct
class of .warship, the largest of all
the dreadnaught, the first of which
was the British dreadnaught, laid
down in 1905. This ship set the
style for all subsequent big battle
ships.-Philadelphia Ledger.

ARE MANY USELESS MOTIONS

think that the ordinary soldiers
craftsmanship is wasteful, we may
well look to ourselves. Our life is
peppered with motions that fly wide
and wild. 1t begins on awaking. We
stretch our arms-waste motion I
We ought to utilize that gesture for
polishing our shoes. We rub our
eyes-more foolishness. We should
rub our eyes on Sunday for the rest
Of the week.
But it is in processes like shaving
that scientific management is really
needed. Men fatter themselves that
they shave with the minimum Of,
gesture. They believe that they COM
plete the operation under five min
utes. But excusing their inaccuracy,
do they know that under the inspec-
ton Of the scientific manager their
performance would look as jagged

New IacOgs Taxes.

AS there seems to be a great
deal of confusion over the new
income taxes. it is worth while
to explain concretely what they
mean to the man of comparative
II small income. The present
revenue bill provides super taxes
in addition to the existing tax
law of just about a yearago. and
the law increases taxes over the
one originally passed early in the
Wilson administration. The ex-
listing law and the one about to
be enacted must be read togeth-
er to understand the total tax.
In the first place, unmarried
men are allowed only $1,000 ex-
emptlon and married men but
$4,000, plus $400 for each depend
ent child, not exceeding two in
all. Let US take the case of a
married man without. children,
with a net income of $4,000,
which is the limit from which
the new super taxes begin; his
taxes for the cnrrent year will be:
On incomes from $4,000 to
$4,000 (new) ..... $40
On incomes from $4,000 to
$4,000 (double) e)....... 40
Total ............. $50
This is based on a net income
after all deductions of taxes,
interest on debts, untaxable in
come or income tax paid by
corporations. Usually this will
represent a man with a gross inN
come of at least $4,000.
If the net income is $4,000, he
must pay five per cent. on the
additional $2500 Cor $l25). max
ing $205 his total income tax, In
comes beyond $500 have rap
idly rising surtax and supertax.
In case the above man is un-
married, his tax will be $l00 on
a net income of $4,000 and 1925
on $500. The new law makes
changes in methods of admins
tration which must be carefully
studied, especially those clauses
dealing with exemptions and pay
ments at the source, which latter
are abandoned except for tax
free securities. 1t is expected
that in a short time the Treasury
Department will issue complete
statement dealing with the law
and regulations permissible un-
der it. The new taxes are pay
able on incomes for the whole of
this year and it is incumbent on
every taxable to have his ac-
counts in good order ready for
governmental inspection if that
is found necessary. Philadelphia
