anywhere on this coast, provided the
water in the river were deepened
enough to float the vessels out.
On the ways of the E. Macrenaris
Shipbuilding corporation there was a
schooner of about eighty-three feet
which will draw about seven feet OF
water, light. We asked how it was in
tended to float this ship out, and were
told that she would be listed over to
one side, thus reducing the draft, and
in this way could be floated out on a
high tide.
The future of Tarpon Springs as a
great shipbuilding center depends en-
tirely upon the depth of water in the
river, for there is no better place on
the coast than this for every other
feature of the shipbuilding industry.
Let us all pull together for a deeper
channel in the river, even if it has to
be started by private capital, thus en-
couraging the government to come
to the rescue and finish the work.
The evening leader., 1918-07-18

The E. -Macrenaris Shipbuilding cor
poration held a meeting and elected
the following officers:
President, E. Macrenaris.
Vice president and general mana
ger, j. Toupouzis.
Secretary and treasurer, N. Macre-
naris.
The E. Macrenaris Shipbuilding cor.
poration is comparatively new or
ganization having received it's charter
a few months ago.
The president of the company told
The Leader man yesterday that they
had absorbed the Greek-American ma
chine shop and would pay all its in
debtedpess; of course, taking over its
assets also.
In looking over the river front yes
terday we noticed that there were
six sets of marine ways, four for
large schooners and two for diving
boats, each with a vessel on it being
worked on, and there were also num-
Der of small boats being repaired and
new ones being built. In fact, th-re
were great number of men employed
on the yard of this new company and
the air was alive with the sound of the
hammer and saw.
The E. Macrenaris Shipbuilding cor
poration has a magnificent location
for the work it is doing and when the
liver is deepened so larger vessels cen
be fioated out there is plenty Of room
For the location Of two big marine
ways on one side of the machine shon
and one on the other, making it easy
to carry on the work Of building as
many as three big ships like those the
government wants, or ships of $500
tons, which seem to be the smallest
vessels built under government can-
tracts. And this work could be car
ried on without in any way interfer-
ing with the work on the smaller
boats now being carried on.
This location is on high ground and
a better site would be hard to find

COLLEGE FOR ORPHAN GIRLS
OPENED IN PENNSYLVANIA

Philadelphia, July 18.-Infornally,
but none the less joyously, Carson
college for orphan girls has been OPP
eysl in Flourtown, Pa. Thirty little
CHS form the first quota of pupils.
Situated on the 4,000-acre estate call
ed Erdenheim, the home and school
for orphan white girls has an ideal
location in the beautiful Whitemarsh
valley, about four miles above the
northern extremity Of Philadelphia. 1t
is the gift of Robert Carson, promi-
nent as a builder of railroads, whose
will endowed the institution with a
$5000,000 fund.
The beautifully built structures COM
posing the college group have been
planned with an eye to homelike quail
ties. The benefactor of the college so
dislikcd the institution" suggestion
that he even desired the girls to be
dressed in clothing of varied design
and material. Nothing in the nature
of uniform will be permitted.
Miss Elso Ueland, president of the
college, has her offices in the central
building, around which many beauti-
full cottages cluster. She has a staff
of trained instructors who will give
the girls the regular grammar course
with certain special studies. The grad
uation age is eighteen.

Capital does not usually buy KS

so much to invest. What will you Of
fer us to come and look over your aG5-

This is the first case in all my ex-
Iperience where city council required

would allow outside capital to even
discuss the advisability of locating an
enterprise in the city, and the extreme
limit of short-sighted foolish things,

And there is mere northern capital

Mr.. Lowe, | suggest that the city
council call a meeting Of the citizens
and organize a commission form OF
government and get the board of trade
to outline all the concessions that cara
be offered and then advertise it. Now
is the time to go after good prae-
teal enterprise, but you can't get

Enfield, ILL.,, July 10, 1918.
Mr.. A. M. Lowe,
Tarpon Springs, Fla.
My dear Mr.. Lowe:
This is business proposition that
the company has to offer some ,own
that can meet the conditions to insure
successful enterprise, and no town
outside of commission form of gov
ernment can meet them.
No town will be considered that is
not in a position to offer concessions
to protect the company from handi-
caps and it takes a united community
to do that.
1t was through my influence that
Tarpon was given chance at this and
we expected an answer offering us
concessions in waterfront, right-of-
way for track, taxes and street ap-
proaches, and vice districts eliminated
from our residence districts, but the
only answer we got was an answer
from you, Mr.. Lowe, which read as
follows:
"a. E. Welsh: l hold the resigna-
tion of West, Durrance, Douglass and
Olympios, effective when you deposit
one hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars in the Sponge Exchange bark
to guarantee the organization and OPP

er industrial enterprises as outlined in
your letter to The Leader. The mat
ter is now up to you. The councilmen
have done their part.
"a. M. LOWE"
Done their part!
If by the council resigning town
could get a good enterprise there
would be more towns without city
council than you could keep tab on.
But that simply won't get them. 1t
takes good sound constructive legisla-
ton, with all the citizens united ard
cooperating and behind them, able to
offer something. 1t was my influence
that brought this feeler to Tarpon, as
the company has not been attracted to
Tarpon Springs,
Has Tarpon Springs anything to of
fer except town without a council
What does the council expect to ac-
complish by resigning, for under this
out-of-date system of running a city
would another council elected in the
same way do any better? 1t is the
system that has failed long time
ago.
1t is real amusing to me to see
the city council rush to you with their
designations on condition that this
company deposit in your bank $780,
900 to show their good faith.
Mr.. Lowe, if you went to Tampa to
buy car and the auto dealer would
come out and demand that you de-
posit $1,000 in the bank to show your
good faith before he told you what
sort of cars he had, and the next deal

Henry Finn, son of Mr.. and Mrs.

name of the young man appears in the

Henry Finn attended the Mnot

was highly regarded by class mates

Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Finn,
Portal, North Dakota.
Dear Friends:
We have just learned that your son
Henry has made the supreme sacrifice
while fighting for his country on the
battle front in France. The news must
be painful to you, for Henry was q
fine young man and you were proud
of him. But he died a glorious death
ad has earned immortal honor for
himself, for you and for his country.
By giving his life for us he has plac-
ed US under everlasting obligation to
himself, to you and to all else that
he held dear. We wish, both for our
selves and for the Normal School, to
acknowledge this obligation to you at
this time. We wish further to pledge
ourselves anew to you to use the
means at our command to assist in
the overthrow of the base German
government which is responsible for
the death of your son and millions
more like him.
