WILL CONCRE TIE SHIPS
SOLVE U-ROAT PROBLEM?

The first concrete ship to be
built in Norway has been launch
ed. 1t is to be followed by
great numbers Of this rare but
well-tried type of vessel. 1t is
Norway $ answer to the U boat
peril.
The launching took place in
the presence of Premier knu sen,
who is himself an old civil engi
neer, and he complimented the
work enthusiastically. He said
ii was "enoch-makin9" A great
point in favor Of this type of YES,
sci is the speed and economy
with which the hull can be made
In this case only three weeks
was required from the start to
the launching The frame or
mold can be used for each later
ship Of the same size, and it is
thought that hereafter the hulls
can be made in ten days.
When the wooden false work is
in place the steel reinforcing
rods are quickly set up, and the
rest is only a matter of pouring
the concrete. The material quick
ly hardens, and as long as it stays
in the water it grows harder
and stronger.
This first ship is of 200 tons
only, but false. work for others of
300 and 1000 tons is being pre-
pared. Could they not be made
non-sinkable by having the hull
and decks very thick. but filed

plan was proposed to our own

THE GAP IN THE
DIXIE HIGHWAY

The route of the Dixie High
way was definitely settled upon
two Years ago. Since that time
a surprising amount of work has
been done on both the Cincinnati
and the Louisville branches of
the highway, as We'll as on the
southern stretch between Chatta-
nOOga and Florida.
In the case Of the eastern
or Cincinnati division, such prog
ress has been made that save for
a seven mile stretch in the Ken
lucky mountains, a continuous
roadway between the Great
Lakes and Florida Is either in ex-
iStence, or in course of construc-
ton. This gap is in ROckcastle
and Laurel counties, Kentucky,
and amounts to a total of only
about seven miles.
1t will require one hundred
thousand dollars to close the gap
Rockcastle and Laurel counties
can not pay for the work. The
State of kentucky, however,
offers to provide fifty Thousand
dollars, and a committee of Gin
cInnatianS under the Leadership
of Mr.. Foley of the Cincinnati
Automobile club, is TT, ing t,
raise the balance. Twenty sis
Thousand dollars have already
been secured and twenty -fou,
thousand dollars additional viii
assure the completion of the
work.
The Dixie Highway between
Cincinnati and Chattanooga lead>
through some Of the most attrac
tive mountain country in the
United States. The scenery in
the Cumberland Range is wild
End beautiful. Hotels are being
built along the line of the road
aud it is safe 10 predict that
when completed the Dixie High
way will be one ef the most
popular touring routes in the
United States.
The completion of the Ciucin-
natl division of the Dixie High
way will mean a great deal to-
this city. There are thousands
of automobiles touring in ore
part of the United States or
anC ther every day N the year
The amount of money spent by
tourists in States which have de-
yeloped a reputation for good
roads is very large. As soon as
it can be announced tina the east
EN- division of the Dixie High
way has been completed, auto
mobiles by the tens of thousands
will pour through Cincinnati
This means hundreds of thOus

lars annually to our hotels, cur
theatres and our stores. 1t will
mean advertisement for the city |
and increased prosperity in
many ways.

For the first timeain the history
of Pulaski county Republican

night for the purpose of advoca
ting the election of the Demo
cratic candidates for county of

the big Circuit Court room were
Judge James denton, former
Collector of Internal Revenue:
Judge H. G. Kennedy, former
legislator and candidate for Cir
cult Judge; County Judge R. f.
Jasper, Charles Gragg, Repub
lican candidate for the Legisla-
ture in the last primary, and h
II. Smith, former County School
superintendent.
The speakers denounced the
Repu blican ticket as the "Bult
Moose ticket, and said it is I'm
worthy of the support of true
Republicans. The Democratic
ticket was pledged 1900 Repub-
lican votes, which would insure
the election of Cecil Williams.

Legislature, and the entire coun-
ty ticket. Judge Rosco c. Tar
tar is the Republican candidate
for County Judge. The Republi-

good order Try to eliminate thru the
skin and intestines the poisons that
otherwise clog the kidneys. Avoid eat
ing meat as much as possible; avoid too
much salt, alcohol, tea. Try a milk and
vegetable diet. Drink plenty of water,
and exercise so you sweat = the skin
helps to eliminate the toxic poisons
and uric acid"
For those past middle life, for those
easily recognized symptoms of inflam-
nation, as backache, scalding vwater,n
