PLAN TO SALVAGE MUCH COAL
?. 49, 49,
Valuable Fuel Now at the Bottom OF
the ssa May Be Brought
- Surface.

Coal estimated at 100000 tons
will be salvaged from the bottom of
Long Island sound with five special
y constructed boats built by Simon
Lake, submarine inventor, according
to plans announced by the Lake En-
cheering company of Bridgeport,
Conn. Il first salvage operations
are successful. it IL planned to SAL
wage coal all along the New England
coast.
The work promises to be one Of
the most interesting after-war indus
tries in that section Of the country.
Simon Lake, who invented the Lake
submarine, now in extensive use by
the United States government, said
that the possibilities are unlimited.
A new era in national thrift and con-
servation Of wasted public utilities
heretofore overlooked or ignored is
heralded BY Mr.. Lake.
Thousands Of tons Of coal are at
the bottom Of the sound within $50,
feet Of the surface, according to Mr..
Lake. The amount Of coal in the
sound is Insignificant compared with
the vast tonnage at the bottom Of the
Atlantic near the New England
coast, the result OF hundreds Of
wrecks.

Chief of Red Cross Riddles

The children all over the nation, real
izing that they must work together,
were asking what they could do. II
was in this spirit that the Red Cross
was organized, and having proven It,
self Of SO much value and so vital
to the social accomplishments of the
school, teachers throughout the coun.
try have learned that this spirit Of
service that the children have devei.
oped during the period Of war must
not be allowed to die.
w. J. Studebaker, formerly city su.
perintendent of schools at Des Moines,
Iowa. himself an educator. who has
taken over the work OF National Di.
rector of Junior Activities, realizes
what potent factor the education Of
the children OF America In the spirit Of
service has been in the period Of war
and what 1t can develop under the new
Peace Program for the Juniors. This
new spirit OF service, this new power
to do, the new impulse to give ID
awaiting the new Peace Program t.
find its outlet.
But the spirit Of service, as epito
mixed in Junior Red Cross. must have
the power Of sympathy and the love
of mankind behind II. in order to pre-
vent mechanical effort. When these
three factors are properly mixed IN
the work OF the Juniors 1t makes the
thing that stretches the hands 81
help across the sea.
