Discovery of new protective coat

nounced by the shipping board.
Engineers studying concrete con-
struction are becoming more and
more enthusiastic over the future of
concrete ships" said r. J. Wig, chief
of the concrete ship division. From
our comprehensive tests at seawater
we are assured that such vessels will
last a minimum of several years
without any protection. Appliea-
lions of well-known protective coat
ings make certain an extended life
of several years additional, and with
the further development Of protec-
tive means which we have discovered
l believe the concrete ship can h
made as permanent as steel. if -

TRAINED BOTH TO SERVICE
Great lrishman's Sense of Citizenship
Caused Him to Acquire Use of
His Second ARM

Padriac Column describes A. f.
George RusselD, the Irish leader
as the only man in history ever 20
make a reputation as great writer
through articles printed in a farm
journal, in the New Republic. He
says:
"A. E. indeed, presents the UNI
usual spectacle of two-armed work
er. Most of the worlds workers are
one-armed; they grasp the sword or
the portfolio. the pen, the brush or
the ehisel with one hand, and the
other. because it has been trained to
no service, hangs lame and limp.
But A. f. is two-armed; with one
hand he paints, writes poems and
sketches the outlines of a philosophy,
vast, eosmie and inclusive, and with
the other he leads or pushes a farmer
or an artisan toward the eo-opera-
tive commonwealth.
His Socratic sense of citizenship
forced him to train his second arm.
'My temperament" he says in a
preface TO one of his books, would
only allow me to be happy when |
was working at art My conscience
would not let me have peace unless
l worked with other Irishmen at the
reconstruction of Irish life"
1t is fortunate, indeed, for ireland
that this remarkable son of hers
should have had such sense Of citi-
zenship as led him to train both his
hands.

THIS IS CERTAINLY sERioua

Here's sad news for stenogs. A
chewing gum famine is threatened.
Recently the United States food adj
ministration eonfseated 1900 sacks
of sugar belonging to the American
Chicle company. The sacks each
held 100 pounds of sugar, TO be used
in the manufacture of chewing gum
The seizure of the sugar came when
the administration decided to cut
down the ehicle eompany's appropri-
alton by half 1--WE are helping the
government in every way possible, "
said a representative of the COM
pany, ''and though the loss of sugar
viii, necessarily, affect our output,
we viii get along as best we can. It's
part of the game to carry on" So If
you fail to find any gum in your ia
vorite slot machine, you will re-
member that your Uncle Sam has
decided that chewing is nonessential
labor.
