SHIP BUILDING

Ship building, the manysided task
in which much of Americas mechani
cal genius is today engaged as a part
Of the war program, requires mechan-
les skilled in more than thirty trades
besides an army of unskilled workers
With a gigantic building program
ahead, vast force is employed along
in this phase of war work. Today
100000 men are at work in the ship
yards, with 250,000 engaged in trades
that provide material for the ship
builders.
Here are the skilled workers who
are doing the work on the steel ship;
clippers and calker, drillers, plumb
ars, pipe-fitters, machinists, joiners,
carpenters, pattern makers, foundry
men, coppersmiths, heavy forgers,
steel metal workers. furnace men,
shGarers, punchers, anglesmiths ship
wrghts, ringers drop forgers, cree
tors. bolters.up, crane operators, loco
motive engineers. iiremen, loftsmen,
painters and helpers in all these
trades
Sixty percent of Tie work on ship
IS in constructing The hull, and the
remaining forty percent is installing
mechanical parts, Geek furnishings
and other equipment that goes to
make the finished vessel
Obviously, it is amost impossible
to single out enc craft that is the
most important All contribute in
making the finished product and with
ont any one no complete ship could
result Loftsmen, however, play a
great part
Ship plans are first made in draft
ing room: On a small scale. Going to
the mouldloft-a large building with
I smooth floor of sufficient size to
have drawn upon it the plans of the
ship to full si2c-the loftsmen fash
ion the templates or moulds of light
wood or paper from which the steel
for the hull can be laid eff and mark
ed for sheavirg. punching, planning,
and other operations.
The moulds are IaaGe from three
plans that give shape to the ship.
These plans, showing the lines of a
vessel are the sheerplan or side eleva
ton, the half breath plan and the
body plan is most used in making
body plan or end elevation. The
the moulds. for it shows better the
shape of each frame. beam and floor
plate. The mouldS must be absolute
ly correct so that they will join to-
gether properly
The shipfitter is probably the one
metal worker whose trade may be
termed pnrely a slrbuilding trade.
He marks off the steel material for
the parts of the veacels hull, by fit
ting the loftman's mould over the

WEST TEXAS DROUGHT

A strange procession of canvas
covered wagons, drawn by mules, for
more than a month has been creep

and ranchers who have despaired
of trying to make a livihood on the
land that has been parched under
a blazing sun and has seen virtually
no rain for thirty-six months.

We were called the other day to
serve on a jury in a case where man
was being sued for printing that he
had bought from an out of town con-
Germ at a price cheaper than we had
offered the work. We did not get on
that jury because the case did not
get to trial, but just think for mo-
ment what might have become of that
defendant if we had been left to rem
der the verdict. But we really loved
our neighbor then as much as We
do that poor printer now.

The Need of Front Teeth.

A we'll Known society woman of Los Angeles tells this good story about herself. "Neuritis is the latest bug bear to the modern np-to-date physi- clan, and when you suffer from it he immediately orders all your teeth ex- tracted-or at least as n,Any as he dares. My physician compelled me to have six taken cit. N:y dentists office is on the sixth floor laf downtown building, but after my-saeth we're gone I couldn't say sixth, tGt tliicsth. This sounded absurd, coming from a grown woman of my weight and dignity, and I suspected the grins of my fellow passengers in tie elevator. The next day told the elevator boy to let me off at the seventh floor, and this did every day, walking down to the sixth The boy noted my strange conduct, and undoubtedly thought me crazy!"

New York Cotton.

New York, Jan. 22.--Thc cotton market showed renewed nervousness today losing a good part of Saturday's s recovery under liquidation and local pressure The failure of Liverpool to fully meet Saturdays advance was partly responsible for the opening d.- cline of 12 to l9 points, while selling was also encouraged by southwestern weather prospects and sentiment was unsettled by reports from Washington that the president had asked blanket authority to fix prices when deemed necessary upon all commodities es- sential to the conduct of the war
 Many of Saturdays buyers seemed to be selling on the break which extend cd to 30.80 for March and 30.42 for May, or about 33 to 36 points net low CT.
 There was enough trade buying to steady the market at times but very bulge met increased offerings and there was another furry of liquidation toward midday which sent March off to 30.56 and May to 3019, or 57 to 59 points net lower. Houses which Wall street connections were aggressive sellers and the decline was accompan- jed by rumors of an easier spot situ- ation, although very few advances were received here from the belt. Trading was less active during the early afternoon and prices held fairly steady at rallies of 10 to 15 points. Cotton closed steady. The range:

"3ooze' First Meant "ErInk,"

The word ''boo2e' came to us before the fourteenth century, seemingly from the Dutch, in the form "bous" or "bousc.' At that time, as noun or verb, it meant merely drink" and tc speak of gentleman as focusing" his wine was not libclous or even deroga- .oly, writes Robert r. Utter in liar. per's Magazine. Somehow it acquired the added suggestion of excess and bad company. and by the time of Shakespeare we find 1t in glossarles of the nfgot of thieves and gypsies. The process may be understood when we lll!ii% of the sinister meaning we often attach to the simple word drink" HAich might concoiyably run the same course ia VIC misuse 1t often enough

SUDDEN THAW MIGHT
 RESULT IN FLOODS
Heavy Snowfall and Frozen Streams Would Mean Danger if
 Weather Warns.

Little Rock, Jan. 22.-The sixth snowfall of the season occurred here yesterday, making total of 6.6 inches for December and 1924 inches for Jan uary, or total of 26 inches for the season so far. This breaks all rec ords of the weather bureau and all that can be remembered by the oldest inhabitant.
 These snowfalls were as follows :: December 7-S, 66 inches; January 10-11, "A inches; January 14-15, 1.5 inches; January 16, 1.5 inches; Jan- uary 19, ) inches, and January 21, i inches.
 Fifteen inches of this snow remains on the ground. The precipitation. as calculated in terms of melted snow has been Al inches since January lO and all but onc-half inch of this is still on the ground In addition to this, all the streams in the state, in- cluding the Arkansas river, practical ly it's whole length, are frozen over, the ice here being 1-2 inches thick. Should this ice and snow be broken up by sudden warm rain a most dis astrous flood would be the inevitable consequence.
 Section Director Cole of the weather bureau says. however, that it is i'm possible to predict what will happen, and advises everybody to make all provisions for meeting any emergency
 The previous record of snowfall for one month was 13 inches. The largest snow fall for season previously re- corded was Al inches during the months of December, January and February, 1S92-93.
