AMERICAN OF CLEAR VISION
John Willis Griffiths RevoIuticnIzed the
Science Of Merchant Shipbuilding
and Naval Architecture.

John Willis Griffiths was the man
who revolutionized the science Of mer-
chant shipbuilding and naval archi-
lecture In 1871 he appeared before
the American institute in New York
and proposed model for new ship.
He succeeded in interesting William
Aspinwall, one of New York's China
trade princes, who in 1912 signed a
contract to build a ship of $50 tons
according TO Griffiths' designing.
The ship was completed in January,
1915, and named the Rainbow. The
Rainbow sailed for China In Febru-
airy. and was back home again in Sep
tember to reward her owners with 200
per cent over what she had cost.
John Willis Griffiths was born in
New York in 1909, and died there
In 1882. He was the inventor of the
trap style of hull construction the
builder of the United States steamship
Princeton. the first twin screw ocean
going vessel, and was the inventor
OF the process of bending ship TIM
her in vacuum. In 1851 he pub
lished privately a treatise on naval
architecture which attracted compare
lively little attention in this country,
but its merits were recognized in Eng
land. and he became lecturer in Ed
inburgh university on naval architec-
ture.

The knocker is q common wild an

FIVE DELEGATES FOR ANNE
ARUNDEL

An interesting development is
promised as the result of the ma
tional census taken sduring the
current year for it seems to be
certain that Anne Arundel coun-
ty will gain an increase Of repre-.
sentation in the House of Dele
gates.
Under the Constitution Of
1861, Anne Arundel county was
allotted three delegates, and by
a subsequent section of Article
3 of the Constitution. it was pro-
vided that the apportionment OF
representation in the House OF
Delegates should thereafter be
made on the following basis:
Each of the several counties of
the State having a population of
$4,000 souls or less, shall be en-
titled to two delegates; and every
county having a population of
over $4,000 and less than $4,000
souls shall be entitled to three
delegates; and every county hav-
ing a population of $4,000 and
less than 10000 souls shall be en-
titled to four delegates; and ev-
cry county having a population
of 10000 and less than $4,000
souls shall be entitled to five
delegates; and every county hav-
ing a population of $4,000 souls
and upwards shall be entitled to
six delegates and no more"
Anne Arundel county has for
several decades been in the four
delegates class. its population
being given under the census of
1910 as $1,000, while under the
census of 1900 it is given as co.
553. According to the figures
just published for the census Of
1920, this county has a popula-
ten of 43, 40s. which puts it we'll
into the five delegates class.
In this connection it is inter
esting to note that. had it not
been for the recent annexation to-
Baltimore City of the upper por-
ton of the Fifth district, embrac-I
ing an estimated population Of
10000, Anne Arundel county
would have reached above the
$4,000 mark and would have been
entitled to the full limit OF six
delegates.
The next step in the matter OF
this apportionment of representa-
ton is prescribed by Section 5 Of

Improved Distribution Through

The present distribution system
throughout the city has entirely
toe much 4 inch line. The best
practice in laying distribution
mains at the present tine permits
the use of nothing smaller than
inch mains. FouI-ineh pipe lines
are adequate for domestic service
aione. but are entirely Inadequate
in furnishing fire streams for
lighting fires.
The best location for larger
mains in Annapolis depends upon
the location of the line which is TO
be designed in the future to carry
the water 10 PASSPORT. Until this
point is determined. It is practi-
cally impossible TO recommend
the sizes and lengths of new pipe
which should be placed in the
town.

in town location, however, are
that the pumps would have to
work against the friction losses
in the 10000 foot line from the
pumping station TO the tank.
The present Wood pump has a
capacity of approximately $780,
600 gallons OF water per day, and
If this pump were employed to
pump water into the elevated tank
in the town, the friction loss in
this 10000 foot of line would be
almost 100 feet If the pump is
slowed up. its efficiency would be
greatly cut down. Even with a
pump of 100000 gallons a day
capacity, the friction losses in the
delivery line would be between SO
feet and 40 feet.
The length of the delivery line
from the pumping stations to the
service reservoirs is less than
1000 feet, so that the friction loss
against which the pump would
have to operate would be only
one-tenth of the friction losses
pumping into a tank located in
town.
The loss of head in delivering
1000 900 gallons per day into the
town would be approximately 1870
feet, and the elevation of the
water surface in the service reser-
voirs is 1870 feet The highest point
in town is approximately go feet
above tide, so that if stand-pipe
were built at the service reser-
voirs with water surface 60 feet
above the water surface in the
reservoirs, the water could be dis
charged from this tank TO the
highest point in town at the rate
OF 100000 gallens per day. While
this is not up to the standards
recommended by the Fire Under
writer's, it is a big improvement
over the existing situation, as
only little over 100000 gal
Ions of water day can be deliv-
cred in the town from the present
reservoirs.
We therefore recommend that a
stand-pips 40 feet in diameter and
of such height as to have water
surface so feet higher than the
present service reservoirs, be con-
structed.
We have estimated that the cost
of such a stand-pipe, with the
necessary valves and pipe connec-
tons. would be $1S.S92.
Such a tank, when filled, would
give an additional pressure
throughout tn etown of between
% to so pounds.
Considering that the tank will
not always be filled, YOU can count
on an average increase of pres
sure throughout the town of about
20 pounds
In The future. when the price of
pipe is lower. we would recon-
mend that the present 10 inch line
of the town be taken up and be
replaced with a 20 inch line. If
the Naval Academy should desire
the city TO furnish them with wa
ter, ii nigh. be possible that you
could get the L. S. Government to
join with the City of Annapolis in
laying this main, and also to as
sist in the development of the Ba-
con Ridge supply. The cost of
20-inch pipe line in the town at
the present prices of pipe, $50 a
ton, we estimate would be s165.-
