to you, Iong-suffering and gentle

There has been too much controversy and too
little construction in the federal shipping board
of the United States, up to this time, and 1t is
only putting widespread public sentiment into
understandable terms to say that the country is
tired of this condition
Many keels could have been laid, many ribs
strung, and not few hulls sided or plated, while
discussion as to whether they should be of wood
or of steel has been going on. One of the great
needs of the hour is ships; whether they shall be
wooden or of steel is a secondary consideration
If steel ships cannot be constructed so quickly as
wooden then wooden ships should be built first
and the building of steel vessels should proceed
as fast as possible.
Meanwhile, it will be matter of Indifference
to the governments and the peoples whom the
United States has undertaken to provide with
food, munitions, and merchandise, whether these
supplies reach them in wooden or steel vessels

RUINED CITIES OF FRANCE
Many of Them Have Taken on q
Character of Permanently, So End
less Does War Seem to People.

There is a new kind of city on earth
soday, a strange, nightmare kind of
eity that has taken on for the people
of northern France almost a character
of permanency, so endless is rhis war.
People have lived through so much
SHINE August, 1914, that they seem to
themselves to have been always at
war, and, looking forward, they see
nothing but long years of warfare. The
ruined cities such as Arras. have be-
come part of the natural order OF
things, and the strange life in them has
come to seem a natural sort of life.
Towns like this are found by the score
where the slow pressure of the allies
is forcing the Prussian back, says
war correspondent.
They are the towns that have been
bombarded and bombarded again,
taken and retaken, assaulted and cap
tured, and cannonaded by those who
held them the day before, until it is
marvel that one brick remains on an
other. They are full of ruined houses
and shattered quarters of all degrees
of destruction, and, stranger than all,
they have blocks and sections, that by
some miracle escaped.
Here is row of houses that might
be in the far South, 200 miles from the
battle front. The shutters are up and
the streets are deserted, as though the
people were late in rising. Here is
public square pitted with shellh0leS,
one side fronted by row of buildings,
whole save for broken windows, the
other bounded only by shapeless
masses of brick and stone. Here and
there slow smoke curls upward from
some gnawing fire. A hundred yards
away there may be q stubborn family
still occupying its old home, but no
body puts out the fire. The civilians
are too hopeless and the soldiers are
too busy.
And here is a house with the front
sliced off by q shell and the rooms still
all in order-a strange spectacle-with
beds and bureaus and chairs and tables
all in order, as though some enterpris-
ing furniture dealer had undertaken a
new and ambitious form of window
display. For the most part the noblest
buildings, the churches and public halls
and the lowered relics of the Gothic
period are gone-they furnish too easy
mark for the rangefinder. And ever
and again dull crash tells of another
shell carrying on the barbarous work.

RurqIarproof Gaze.

A burglarproof cashiers cage, To-
Gated in a car house ia an isolated dis
trict, has been installed by the Wash
ington Water Power company, says
the Electric Railway Journal. It is
described as follows:
1.-THE cage is sheathed with iron on
the outer walls and the door, and the
windows are provided with steel cur
tains, counter-weighted, which can be
lowered for complete protection. In
the bottom of each steel curtain is a
trap or hinged box which can be swung
inside or outside without at any time
.affording a direct opening into the
room. Cash is placed in the trap on
the outside, which is swung in to give
the cashier access to it. A small peck
hole with sliding cover is provided
just above the trapdoor."

CAPTURED Yep IS A WONDER CRAFT

men were well built and wore leath-
er jackets.
1t was reported here that another
Zeppelin was captured several kilo-
meters away. when the forward gon-
dola crashed into a tree, dumping
part Of the crew to the ground. The
Zeppelin, relieved Of this load, then
rose, tilted unsteadily and caught
fire.
The Zeppelin brought down intact
near here carried only incendiary
bombs, apparently for the purpose Of
self-destruction In the event of cap
ture. All the explosives evidently
had been dropped in England.
The French evidenced the greatest
interest in the prize, and many
wounded were wheeled to the scene
in chairs.
Several hundred Americans, COM
manded by an aviation officer, are
learning airplane construction In
the most practical way possible at
a French camp a few hours ride
alton school.
French planes Of all types wrecked
or damaged at the front are shipped
to this camp and are taken apart
by the Americans under French in
structors. They are learning how to
make repairs and to build new mo-
tors as well. Each student spends
half a day learning the theory of
airplane construction and the other
half In actual shop practice taking
down motors Of all types and rebuild
ing them.
The French instructors frequently
remove q piece of the mechanism and
then ask the American what Is miss
ing. Similar instruction Is given In
assembling machines. When this
educational training Is completed the
men enter the factory, where ma
chimes are built until they are ex-
perts In all lines of airplane com
struction and repair.

have done. They viii provide the gov
eminent with expert aid in the carry

rank among the most important Of the

will be vastly increased next year If
present plans hold. The number of

GERMAN PATENTS AID Dye INDUSTRY

America In 1914. American chem
lists have succeeded in duplicat-
ing on short notice many of the
processes which were built up by
generations of German dyestuffs ex-
perts. A greater impetus will be given
to the industry, according to American
experts, when the amendment to the
patent laws places patented German
processes at the disposal of American
manufacturers. There are 46 firms in
this country in the new dyestuffs in
dustry now pending 60,000,OOO pounds
of dyes a year.
While the war has created this great
industry for America and has multi
piled the output of many other indus
tries, 1t has also taught Europe the
use of American labor-saving machin-
cry and of American labor-saving de-
vices, according to Albert E. Parker Of
the firm of Marks & Clerk, English
patent lawyers. Mr.. Parker says that
American manufacturers in the past
frequently failed to take out patents
in England and in other countries be-
cause the patented article was pro-
duced in this country on such a scale
that there was not the slightest fear
Of competition abroad.
american manufacturers should re-
member that the war has resulted In
introducing American methods and
machinery all over the world and is
educating workmen so that 1t will not
be safe to rely, after the war, on the
belief that American machinery can
continue to offset the cheaper labor
costs in foreign countries" said Mr..
Parker.
