democracy, but these made things only for the
very rich.
The large difference between the American
mechanics and those of old world is that the Amer
leans devoted their efforts and ingenuity on ma
chinery and tools and dies to produce thing in
quantity and at low cost, while the Europeans put
their efforts on merely making few Of the things
itself.
The worlds modern manufacturing methods in
the production of mechanical devices grew out of
the New England clock industry.
In 1903 Boston merchant saw large mar
ket for small shelf-clocks if they could be sold
cheaply enough. ..s....
He offered Eli Terry, wooden-movement clock
maker of Watertown, Conn.,, an order for 1000 of
them if he could procure them for 81 each and
make delivery within three years.
Terry, in order to carry out this contract, in
vented crude form of gear cutting machine, a
semi-automatic lathe, applied water power to his
machinery and divided his workmen into groups,
each engaged upon separate part. a..
He thus produced the parts with such uniform
accuracy that they were interchangeable-the
could be assembled by comparatively unskilled
labor. <a
This was about the beginning of MANUFAC-
TURING things rather than merely MAKING
them. .,,sr.
This method Of production has since been APP
piled in more perfected form to sewing machines,
typewriters, the bicycle, the automobile and now
the airpane-every mechanical devise of war and
peace
Yes, the American mechanic has been fully rs
important in the democratic scheme Of things as
the American statesman.
The statesman gave us the formulas of gov
for the free expenditure of our efforts,
but the mechanic has economical our efforts and
made our modern life rich and fruitful in COM
forts and pleasures and where those of our fore
fathers were poor and barren by comparison and
filled with burdens

THE MECHANICS PLACE IN DEMOCRACY

THE MECHANICS PLACE IN DEMOCRACY
The American mechanic has been as large a
factor as the statesman in the democracy we have
attained up to date. sEr$
The mechanic has economical and distributed
human energy for the ease and cheapness by which
we obtain the necessities, comforts and many OF
the luxuries of life. ~
And the ease and cheapness by which we OBJ
tain our wants is quite as important in a demo-
cratic program as the expressions of our will in
the matter of law and government.
The average man or woman of today carries a
watch that only king or queen could have af-
forded century ago.
Many Of us can in our homes and at will hear
the worlds greatest symphony orchestras and
human song birds.
These, together with the more utilitarian items
OF our modern life, are due to the efforts of the
American mechanic-every desire for increased
and low cost production, including the modern
plow, the reaper, the automatic lathe, the punch
press, the power loom and sewing machine 81
It is true that there were great mechanics in
the old world long before the conception of social

Lamb VS.. Chicken.

Lamb meat altho almost as edible
as chicken. has not been used
great deal by housewives. One
reason has been that the price of
lamb was considerably higher than
chicken. Market prices of the two
are about equal now however, and
many experts on meat flavors and
other values, urge that more lamb
be used
The price of lamb is around fiji
teen cents a pound, live weight.
This insures that the dressed meat
ordinarily does not cost more than
twenty-five cents a pound, very
reasonable price considering the
quality of the meat.
Farm killed lamb often exceeds in
quality that which is to be bought
from the butcher, because Of the
fact that slow demand for the meat
compels the butcher to keep it so
long that it loses freshness and fla
vor.
Mutton is another meat that gen.
orally is unappreciated, and for this
reason many farmers send their ewes
to market when they are no longer
useful in the herd. Such animals
can be made to produce excellent
meat if they are fattened rapidly
and if the meat is prepared as NUT
ton and not as lamb. If the ewes
are slaughtered while they are thin
the meat is tough and unsavory.
Present prices should make both Of
these meats staple articles of diet.

gressing at differing speeds, usually above 80 knots per hour, the R-34 proceeded on her epoch marking trip, Varying, atmospheric conditions gave cause to sudden rises and abrupt falls in the ether. Thunder showers and head winds huTetcd her about when she had reached these shores, but she drove on. and did what was planned, though unexpected, at the last minute.
 A description, in the log of the air a ScNtant, using the cloud banks be- low as an horizon instead of the soa horizon was most worthy of note to the mariner. While tho scaGoer is familiar with the placing of tCrresiria bodies upon the sky and water line with his arrangement of mirrors and thereby measuring the angle of the body in the arc above him from which he -deduccs his position, it proha blv had not occurred to him that it was possible to do so from higher posi- ton, using the cloud strata for d horizon exactly as ouc would use the sea. However. it becomes immediate ly aparent hat such a thing is poSsi- hle as soon as mention is made of it. The cloud banks above the sea are as much a part of the great circle of the heavens of which the earth is the cen ter as tho ocean is. Clouds hang a certain altitude above the globe and have exactly tho same Contirma ion as the sea. They form part of an arc and determine angles from the earths center as well as the water. There fore they are available for use with the sextant Naturally the height of the clouds from the carth's surface and the altitude of the observer from them must he accurately known. Even If 1t IS not there is the possibility Of fairly accurate reckonng It was figured on the R-34 that A circle of 100 miles would contain the position estimated. With a gas bag this is Suf- icient. The possibilities of an aCci- dent to tho ship through an error in navigation are not as great as they arc upon the sea. There are not the rocks and reef, to hit. The chance for picking up a point of land is also greater from the higher altitude. The air&hip has nothing to fear from hit ting Subm ergeh objects. She can make her destination by CirclnE in the proper direction if she makes a land fall 100 miles from the point decided upon, a ship cannot.
 The R-34 is now planning to make tho return trip Tuesday, tomorrow. She will waste no time in returning. A few hours for refuollnE and for rest for he> crew and she will be off for England again. May she have the best of luck on her last lap.

TETFl R-31 LANDS.

By way of a pleasant surprise for Saturday night and Sunday news paper readers who expected that the giant British dirigiblc, on her way srom Scotland to the United States, would not be able to make the com plete Journey as originally planned md would be forced to land in Bos- ton through lack Of fuel, the R-34 managed to make Mineola yesterday and come down safely in the quarters arranged for her. It was thought that the affair as 1t had been mapped out would not he a complete success because of the fact that the ships & wireless had been calling for help, while over the Bay of Fundy, stating that she was short of fuel But there was a three hour supply of gasoline left in her tanks when she finally ar rived at Mineola.
 Starting from East Fortune, Scot land, 3,1GO sea miles away, with over fifteen tons of gasoline in her tanks for the long journey she finished with but a little to spare. However, there was enough. Owing to uncertainty about landing preparations messen- ger was put over the side in a para chute and he dropped 2,000 feet to see If all was we'll on the field. Interest ing people, these bird men.
