SCIENTIFIC SAVING

One day last winter an aequan-
tance confessed that though he was
doing lot Of saving he did not seem
at the end of the month to have any
more money than before. We have
since discovered a good many people
in the same dilemma.
You cut out meat except two meals
a week You forgot early new pota-
toes when good old potatoes can be
had for quarter the price. You eat
canned peas until the product of
nearby gardens becomes plentiful.
Your wife evolves summer ward
robe for half what she spent last
year. You get virtuous impression
of economizing at great rate. But
when you balance the books the net
result is disappointing.
That, we know from personal OBJ
servation, is a tolerably common
experience.
You must save scientifically, which
means with exact knowledge of what
you are doing. A good way to ac-
complish that is to convert every
theoretical saving-immediately and
on the spot-into government thrift
stamp or war-saving stamp.
A mere general impression that
you are economizing is apt to be a
snare and delusion, because it gives
you an easy conscience when you let
so little here and there; and it
does not take many lettings-go to
douse the halo of the meatless days.
Those million American boys in
France would infinitely better have
stayed at home than to have gone
over there with a mere general I'M
preston that they were going to lick
the Kaiser. Every motion they
make is carefully thought out and in
rigorous subordination to a scientific
plan. They had to be drilled for
months so that their general inten-
tions would serve a scientific plan.
You are not supporting them ade-
Quately if you are going on mere
good intentions and general impress
sions.
Do it on a thought-out plan, with
definite knowledge OF what you are
about. Cinch the saving right at

SALVAGE.

The important part played in the
war by technically educated men is
nowhere better Illustrated than in
the reports now being complied Of
the success of salvage engineers in
recovering vessels which have been
sunk by German submarines For
oceanographic reasons. they have
been most successful near the coast
of Great Britain and along the shores
of France. There in many places
the waters are comparatively shai-
low. The deep waters of the Med
iterranean, unfortunately, have kept
their secrets.
But success of the British Ad-
miralty, with the assistance Of
American experts, has nevertheless
been surprising. Vice-Adnliral Sims.
U. S. n, repored last December that
the British had reclaimed more than
200 ships, of total tonnage of more
than million. The rapid progress
made in this science is shown better
in later reports. which indicate that
between January, 1915, and May.
1918, 4O7 vessels had been re-
covered, 147 of them in the first
five months of the present year This
is the equivalent of ship dag, and
it has been estimated that the time
required to build the same vessels
under ideal working conditions
would have been 5SS months.
If it be accepted as approximately
accurate that the toll of the sub
marine between the declaration Of
war and May 81 last was little
more than thirteen and half million
tons, it will be seen that marine
salvors have restored more than IL
per cent of the loss. But the figures
do not do justice to the efforts of
these engineers, since salvage has
been organized on an effective basis
only about half of that time, and Is
ouls lON bCSiAhiiS W SCI no OIL ANC-
Comparison of ships recovered with
the time it would take to build an
equivalent in new tonnage also fails
to tell the entire story because in
many instances cargoes as well as
ships have been restored Raw ma
terials of the metal industry and
many other products not seriously
affected by their sojourn on the
ocean bottom have added immensely
to the account of the marine salvors.
The methods employed have been
technical, and have reflected much
credit upon the highly educated en-
gineers who developed them. Un-
skilled labor has played relatively
insignificant role in accomplishing
the result. But for the inventative
genius and the skill displayed, these
ships would still be resting an the
bottom of the sea. And the world is
