LARGE SCHOONER ON
FIRST VOYAGE SOON
W. H. Woodin One Of
Largest Vessels Ever
Built at ]. & S. Yard
FOUR MASTER FOR
EMERGENCY FLEET

At the Jackson and Sharp plant OF
the American Car and Foundry Com
pany there Is being completed the four
masted schooner w. II. WoOdin, which
is one OF the largest vessels ever built
at those yards. A sister ship VIII be
launched In about thirty days.
The w. II. Woodin was started soon
after the Emergency Fleet Corporation
began its great program Of ship build
ing. These boats have not been I'm
ished before now because Of the fact
that the local plant also constructed
eight submarine chasers and also un-
dertook the repair work for the Navy
Department Of all the wooden boats 10
the Delaware Bay patrol fleet.
The dimensions Of the w. H. Woodln
are: Length between perpendlculars,
2iO feet: extreme beam, 40 feet; depth,
2i feet inches.
This schooner has a gross registry Of
iiS8 tons and win have a carrying capac-
ity Of 26OO tons.
When the Emergency Fleet Corpora
tion started on its program for building
wooden steamers, the American Car and
Foundry Company requested from them
and received their permission, 10 build
In the place Of two Of those steamers,
the two schooners which they now have
under construction. The steamers were
a new development in wooden shipbuild-
ing, and there was some question at the
time as TO their being entirely success
full.
The two schoOners are constructed
entirely Of seasoned lumber and by eX-
perienced workmen. They have been
given the highest rating for wooden
vessels by Lloyds Bureau and the Amer
lean Bureau Of shipping.
The Woodin is equipped with a i25
horsepower boiler which operates
deck winches used in handling sails and
loading and discharging cargo. The
steam from this boiler is used also tOI
operate the windlass and capsian for
handling the anchor and hawser,
wrecking and circulating pumps, and
also for heating the cabin and crews
quarters.
The officers quarters are spacious
and the bath reOms and fittings are
above the standard usually found I'M
sailing vessels.
The WoOdin has not been sold, and
the builders will probably operate her
her first voyage being 20 South America
or Africa.

May RE-ROUTE some.
CITY TROLLEY LINES.
Utilities Commissioners
Want to Avoid Market
St. Congestion
WILL CONFER WITH
RAILWAY OFFICERS

Trolley car service IN this city came
In for same raps at a session Of the
Public Utility Commission last night.
That there are too many car lines oper-
ating on Market street, was the opinion
Of G. d. Garretson, a member Of the
commission. lie stated that this serves
20 congest Market street. the citys
principal thoroughfare.
Suggestions were then made as TO
the re-routing Of some OF the car lines
running at present along Market street.
The Wilmington and Philadelphia
Traction Company will be asked TO
make any recommendations 1t may
think Mt for the betterment OF the ser
vice The company will also be rC~
quested TO send representatives to meet
the commission at a special session 10
p be called by President p. J. Isaac In the
near future.
The question OF changing the routes
came up during the discussion OF a
resolution permitting Darby cars 10
stop within the city limits only TO re-
ceive passengers bound for points be-
yond Shellpot on the nOrthbound trip
and TO discharge passengers from be-
yond Shellpot on the southbound trip.
This matter was brought 10 the atten-
lion Of the commission at its last meet
ing. At that time residents OF the Ninth
ward protested that the Darby cars
made only two stops between Tenth
and Market streets and ShellpOt, there
by inconvenienclng them. Suburbanitcs
asked that the service be maintained
as Il cut down the time and was run
principally for their benefit.
The resolution was laid on the table.
President Isaac and Mr.. GarretsOn vot-
ing against laying it on the table.
In stating that there ought 70 be a
re-routing Of some Of. the car lines,
Mr.. GarretsOn suggested that King.
Shlpiey and other streets be used. with
loops az possibly Seventh and Eighth
streets and Third and Fourth streets
for some Of the lines now running
along Market street. other members
claimed that cars from north Market
street should be run as far as the p,
y. & w. railroad station In order to
10 away with the necessity Of trans
,erring at Fourth and Market streets
Mention Was also made Of the poor SER
vice which is given on Sixth street.
In connection with the running Of
express suburban cars through the city
the members Of the commission
thought that II better service were
given to the men in the Ninth Ward by
running cars on four instead OF a.
six minute schedule, a compromise
might be reached.
The commissioners expressed the in
lention last evening, 10 have the local
service bettered before any concessions
Nill be made TO suburbanites. G. f.
Robinson stated the only reason men
who live outside the city limits are us
ing the trolley line in such numbers at
the present time was because the Phila-
delphia pike is torn up and the use OF
automobiles, which most OF them own
would necessitate a long detour by way
Of FOulk Road.

EASTER CALL Is
SOUNDED BY CHURCH

With the approach Of Passion and
Holy Weeks and Eastertde, Catholic
priests throughout this city are eX-
horting their people to fulfil their
Easter duty Of confession and the re-
ception Of communion. In accordance
with the new code Of canon law Cath
olics should make their Easter duty
in their own par sh; still, IL may be
received in any parish. However, II
this duty of confession and receiving
communion is made outside Of the
parish they should notify their own
pastor.
The special concession granted 60
tho United states by Pope Plus VIII,
by WHICH the time appointed for the
fulfllntent Of the Easter duty extends
from yhe first Sunday Of Lent TO Trim
Ity Sunday, which falls this year on
Juna -, remains in force. Although
the law Of the Catholic Church obliges
its members to go TO confession and
receive Holy Communion at least once
during the prescribed time from the
first Sunday Of Lent TO Trinity sun
day, still this precept is not only gen
eraty carried out by Catholics in this
citt. but thousands OF members Of the
Catholic Church have formed the habit
OF frequently and even daily attending
msts and receiving communion during
Lett and the Easter season.
