CUTTING SCOTLAND
BY CANAL is TALK

ow.-tcorresponden ce)-- Plans
for cuttin" ship canal across Scot
land, connecting the North sea and
the Atlantic by voyage of only 60
odd miles, are advocated owing to the
war and the growing Importance of
the British naval base at Ros3th.
Naval men expect that work on such
a canal will be begun as soon as the
war is over. and that the work can be
completed within three years.
The value of canal by which the
largest warships could BASS at will
between the North seat and the At
iantic needs no demonstration, The
commercial possibilities of such a
canal are also large. for it would eff
feet an astonishing reduction in dis
lance between certain important ports
as well as avoid the dangerous. pas
sage north OF Scotland and the con-
gested English channel route on the
south.
The canal would reduce the distance
from Glasgow to Leith by ass miles
from Glasgow to London by 253 miles,
and from Glasgow to Hamburg by 3l2
miles. The saving between Liverpool
and Leith would be 400 miles. between
Leith and Belfast 81 miles. between
tween Glasgow and Antwerp 2af
miles.
Two rival routes for the canal are
being discussed. One would follow an
existing barge canal, involving tho
deepening of the upper Clyde. the
crossing of a plateau with an indif-
ferent water supply. and the construc-
ton of six locks on each side. Ad-
vocates of this route point to the ad
vantages of the canal passing through
Glasgow: opponents point out the
tidal difficulties on the upper Clyde
and say that the river is already badl,
congested.
The alternative route would starr
from Alloa on the Forth and make di
rectly for Lock Lomond across lane
| which is never more than SO feet above
| sea level. As the lake itself is % fee
! above the Atlantic, only one lock woul,
be necessary at each end of the canal
There would, however be a deep cut
| ting of eight miles. nearly two mile.
| of which would be comparable in mag
| nitude to tho Culebra cut on the Pan
l anna canal.
Loeb Lomond would afford mag
nificent inland naval harbor. safe from
attacks from the sea, and ships, as Oh
the Gatnn lake at Panama, eonl,
| steam across it at high speed. Their
is the disadvantage. however. that tn
loch is subject to fogs which nigh
prove somewhat hampering. The loci
would at any rate provide an mex
haustiblc water supply for the SUNNI
level. The canal on this route woul
enter the Atlantic by way of Loo
Long. leaving Glasgow just around
corner
The Loeb Lomond route is the on
generally favored by naval men Will,
for commercial purposes. that throug
Glasgow is regarded as just as goo
and probably much cheaper to con
struct.

(TO BE C~ONTINUED.)
HOW Different SHIPS SINK
Nearly Every Glass or Design Of YES
sci Has a Particular Way Of
Going Down.

Nearly every class or design of ves-
sci sinks in a particular way, For in
stance, the old type of slngle-bOttom
steamers, with few or no b~ulkheads-
that is, in the modern sense Of the
term-almost invariably founders on
more or less of an even keel, which
means that they sink level, and not
with their bow or stern up in the air,
London Tit-Bits says.
This is accounted for by the fact
that at whatever point the water may
enter, it practically finds 1t own level,
as there are no subdivisions to OBJ
struct it.
Now, in the case of a modern ves-
sci, which Is built with numerous SUBJ
divisions, 1t invariably happens that
she founders with her bow or stern high
out of the water; or else she sinks
with a heavy list, or cant. to n side
or the other. The reason for this Is
that the %bulkheads prevent the water
which enters the vessel from finding
its level consequently, when one par
ticular portion of the ship is full Of
water, while the remainder Is prac-
tically watertight, that part which is
water laden sinks first. owing to it's
greater weight.
1t is for this reason that such terri
BILE loss of life frequently occurs in
modern shipwrecks. Owing to the un-
even sinking, it is often found impos-
sible to lower the majority Of the life
boats. as they would fail to reach the
water.

self to any great extent, medium oil
should be employed in the summer
time and light oil in the winter.
There are a great many upholstery
compositions on the market which are
very good. These should be used to
go over the leather and freshen it. If
this is not done from time to time,
leather upholstery will crack and the
car will lose it's bright new appearance.
The same applies to the top, and a
treatment of this will vary in accord
ance with the material of which it is
composed.
THE final step is to refill every
grease cup on the car and turn them
up three or four turns, repack the uni
versal joints with lubricant, oil the dis
tributOr and shaft of the ignition out
fit with a few drops of good oil, and
the same with the armature shaft Of the
generator and all other oil holes. See
that the tires are inflated to their prop
er pressure, and the car is ready to
start the touring season.
