a decent time Mr.. Henry. to preserve
the estate. married Miss Alison, al
though he no more than any other
doubted her love for The Masters
memory.
But The Master was not dead. He
had escaped to sea- his escape being
not to his credit. At sea he was cap
tured by pirate ship. By the most
ingenious deviltry he secured the
treasure OF the pirate ship as she was
about to fall into the hands of a kings
cruiser. and escaped with it to the
swamps On the American shore. One
man he took to guide him out of the
swamp. and dirksd him to death after
they were safely clear OF il. Thence
he continued his march to French
Canada. although forced on his way
to hide his treasure in the wilderness
This we learned from a Col Burke, an
Irish soldier of fortune. who came in
night to plead money for the support

 zine.
 Foch and Petain are the purest glories of our military history, for they are free from the stains which have so often tarnished great leaders in war, the lust of conquest and personal ambition. Their task was to liberate France, which had been invaded, and small nations, which had been crushed. They have been the soldiers of justice. They have been exemplars Of The genius of France. We see in them the logical reasoning power in prepara- tion. the harmony in effort the adapta- bility in execution of the French mind. never confused by surprises, always master of the most serious situations. They are born leaders. Because they are men of faith and reason, they are optimsts. They come from different branches of the service: Foch is an ar tilleryman and Petain an infantryman. They possess, however, common char acteristics, and have been able to work out common doctrine. Superficial geNeralizers have tried to differentiate between them in pretending that Foch's mentality is offensive and Pe- tain's defensive What an error! Pe- tain, at Carency. showed more offeI- sve spirit than any other commander of an army corps, and if he had been followed the German lines would have been broken through. Foch, the south erner more impetuous, more fntuitive, has flashes of genius, but he has espe- cially an imperturbable faith which holds sway over all those who sur round him. Petain, the northerner, i5 more cold more calm perhaps more But there Is nothing of the cynic in him. His firmness of soul cannot be better expressed than. by the splendid old Latin word fortitudo All the world knows his marvellous as- cendancy over his soldiers, strikingly revealed to an anxious and expectant world in the dark and critical days of Verdun.

work as is necessary to the fitting to- gether of the materials.
 Now to get an idea of the immensity and scope of one department of this shop, what would you say if you were shown a drawing board large enough to draw the "full-size" plans of a 9000- ton steel ship? Yet such a drawing board exists in the fabricating shop of the Fairfield steel mill. Get this: In the drafting department of the fab ricating shop all the plans of ship in every detail are made full size" tenn plates or patterns of each part are made full size" and on one gigantic board.
 To make homeIy comparison, the comparison, the design of
 ship worked out just as a dress or
 cont is designed then the tenn | plates are made full size, just the patterns are made full size, then the templates are laid on the plates |s and marked off, just as the patterns are laid on the cloth and marked off. then the plates are cut into the proper shape and size, just as the cloth is cut into proper shape and
 size, and just as these pieces of
 cloth are joined together by needle and thread and the result is gar ment. these pieces of steel are put together by bolts and rivets and the result is the keel of s ship. STILL OTHER BUILDINGS | Below the fabricating shop is the ma |chine shop, an immense steel structure, |where it is contemplated that the en- zines for the ships will be built in the future, the forge shop where the pro- boiling shafts and other parts of the ship machinery will be forged, the foundry where the casting will be made. These are rapidly nearing com pletion and will soon be in operation. This brief description can but give Ia faint idea of the magnitude of the plant and its wonderful equipment, and 1t must not be inferred that the build ling of ships is it's only purpose, as flor instance, the building of marine engines is yet in the future, yet the machine shop will be in full operation pn other construction. The plant must be seen to be properly appreciated and its possibilities understood.
 Even a brief summary of the plant would be incomplete without some ref erence to the safety first" movement, for in every detail of construction, from the laying of the foundation to the fin tshing touch of the completed plant the Eafety first idea has prevailed and the loss of life or limb everywhere is safe- Ruarded. Every piece of moving ma ehinery is covered as far as possible hnd every electric wire Is underground
 By the way, in speaking of electric wires reminds that the motive power bf the mill is entirely electrical, which further reminds that the most powerful motor in the country has been installed to drive the rolling mill-a motor o1 t6, 900 horse power. This powerful mo- tor is but another evidence of the fore light of the Builders of this mill. for It is designed not only to meet the present demands but the requirements Pf years to come.
 Truly the Fairfield steel works marks An epoch in the industrial development hot only of this district but of. the 4outh.
