A gentleman who Goes not reside in
Tarpon Springs, but who comes into
town quite often, called at The Leader
Office this morning and called our at

often noticed in the past two years.
The fountain III City Hall park squirts
two little streams Of water which US
ually fall on the walk ard make it iil-
possible TO walk around the fountain
without getting sprinkied. This gem
tlenlan remarked that if the city was
too poor to buy a nozzle which would
make circular spray, he would pay
for it himself, as it would not cost
over dollar. And while on the sub
ject, we wish to call attention to the
fact that Old Glory seldom flies from
the famous fiagpole in the park and
that one of the guy lines on the pole
has been off its fastening since few
days after the pole was erected;
therefore the pole leans sideways and
is not very attractive to look at. Incl
dentally, the grass and weeds in the
city park need a shave very much.

DIVERS REMARKABLE WORK
SAVES VALUABLE STEAMER
Feat of Underwater Repairing on
Vessel Wrecked off Pacific Coast
an Inspiration to Labor.

One of the most remarkable feats in
the history of American labor, accord
ing to Capt. Louis Turner, represent
ing marine underwriters, was the sub
marine repairing of steamer sal
vaged off the California coast by a
diver named Theodore Wicks. The
success of this man in his perilous
work made it possible to raise the yes
sci for further important service in
the governments war program, where
shipping is so urgently needed.
There were fully 100 patches of tenn
porary nature to be put on the shat
tered sides of the vessel while it was
humping about on the rocks, making
lit by all odds the biggest job of the
kind ever attempted on the Pacific
coast The biggest patch was 10 feet
wide and 16 feet long. Three layers
of inch plank, with canvas between,
Were used in patching. This kept the
water out while the ship was being
pumped.
Large numbers of shipping men Wis
tied the dry dock where the ship went
after Diver Wicke's exploits, and were
astonished that it had been possible
to salvage the vessel at all. The div
Ier's work is viewed all along the coast
as an inspiration 70 labor in its great
task Of vim re the war.

A Preacher is Justified in Using Big

London.-A famous English bishop
has endorsed the use, by the Rev. Sam
Leland, New York preacher, of an
exclamation rhyming with his first
name. Of course the bishop qualified
his endorsement. A. E. Hungerford,
leader of the Y. M. C. A. party of
fifty-seven secretaries who were on
board the Orsona when that vessel
was torpedoed while nearing England,
told the bishop about the Rev. Sans
outburst. Three minutes after Brit
ish destroyer had picked up the sur
vivors of the Orsona the preacher ap-
preached Hungerford ard asked:
"Can a man resign from the Y NJ.
&c. A. service at a time like this"
Hungerford wondered, amazed, if
he had overestimated the man.

The Tampa Tribune does not take
kindly to the advice to wear your
old clothes in order to help win the
war. 1t believes in wearing fine
clothes if you are able to buy them,
and says give the old ones to the
needy. 1t also taboos the advice to
stop giving Christmas presents, and
says that one of the pleasures in life
Is that of giving to others. The Trib-
une is right. There are so many silly
suggestions in connection with what
the people should do during the war
that we are kept busy cutting them

foolish when everybody rich and poor
