In appreciation of the American
feeding the local youngsters present

ut is not only agreeable to eat the
lovely American bread and sugar
but it is pleasant to think they come
from America. We like to read about
America. We particularly love Mark
Twain and Thomas A. Edison. Tom
Sawyer and Huck Finn are friends OF
ours. We know that Edison made
many ingenious inventions. We beg
you to express our gratitude to the
American people, especially the little

Several times during the past three
yars a movement has been started in
the Chamber of Commerce here to or
ganiZe a cannery. If we remember
correctly, at one time, under the di-
rection Of Mr.. Carbery, while he was
secretary, the plans came near to be-
ing carried out. But, somehow, the
movement failed. 1t was wise sug-
gestion; and, if it had been carried
to realization, Union County would
today be facing very much more sat
isfactory situation. The trouble was
40 cents cotton. Forty cent cotton ran
us all crazy, as the fellow says
plumb crazy" We could renew our
interest in the Chamber of Commerce
if it could bring about a revival of
the movement to build cannery. If
the farmers all over the county knew
they could find way to dispose of
their surplus, they would produce veg
etables in sufficient quantities to sup
ply the needs of a cannery. The or
ganization wold not pay in the begin
ming, for it would take year or two
would be a good market for their
products. But it could be made to
pay after a year or two. We do not
believe n small, poorly squippcd plant
would ever pay. But a modern plant
that would can and properly label the
cans and create a market for the
products, would pay and pay we'll

American Engineering
Triumphs Again

New York, Nov. 30-For the second
time within three years, American en-
gineering skill has triumphed over
obstacles tending to prevent the
giant steamship Leviathan, the former
pride of Germany's merchant feet,
from going to sea.
The first time was in 1917, when
the great $4,000 ton liner interned
here at the beginning of the war, was
wilfully damaged by her own engin-
eers to prevent her from being used as
a transport for American and allied
soldiers.
American engineers repaired the
damage and made her ready for a
trip within few weeks. Her record
for the war was 10 voyages on which
she carried going and coming 1S4, 1858
American soldiers. Signing of the
armistice laid her up.
Then the United States Shipping
Board, her custdian fir the United
States government, began to plan to
restore her to the transatlantic trade
as the premier American passenger
liner. Fitting her. for troops had
stripped her of her former palatial
cabins, saloons and dining halls. These
had to be restored.
Her German builders were cabled
and asked for a set of blue print plans
giving details of her construction.
They consented to provide the plans
for 81, 100000.
With nestimated cost of between
$1,000, ,Q0Qxand $10,OOO,OOO facing them
for restoration, the Shipping Board
declined the offer and decided to make
it's own plans. A small army of en-
gineers and craftsmen were put to
work to ascertain the details of her
construction. q
Partitions were removed in part,
floors ripped up in certain sections,
miles of telephone, electric light and
signal wires were traced, equal miles.
of pipe lines controlling heating and
plumbing systems were followed,
plates from keel to hurricane deck
were bored into and measured. The
Leviathan was at last "put on paper"
to the most. minute detail.
Consequently, when bids were
asked of shipbuilders last month to
restore the ship to her original gran
deur and with additinal facilities and
accommodations, the Shipping Board
was able to submit to each bidder a
complete set of plans and specifica-
tions. These bids will be opened De-
cember 20.
Under plans now prepared for the
bidders she will be entirely restored
as beftting her size. The grandeur
of her original great dining saloons,
lounges, smoke rooms and libraries
will be retained and improved upon.
An immense tiled and marbled plunge
bath with accompanying rooms for
Turkish, electric and other baths, will
be one of her attractions. Suits once
designed as personal quarters for his
former Imperial Majesty the Emporer
Of Germany, will be retained but sug-
gestions of royalty will be replaced by
luxurious fittings desired by modern
democracy.
Who will operate the Leviathan
when restored to service and under
which houseflag she will sail is yet to
be determined by the Shipping Board.
