IN CALKING SHIPS

In the upper part of Anne Arundel
County there has been most success
fully tried out during the past few
days a newly patented calking tool
which will greatly speed up the work

men in an amazingly brief time. 1t
is said that the tool can calk the
seams on 10 wooden ships as quickly
as the seams of one ship are calked
under present methods.
