Nancy and Nick, as you have
heard. are twins who have a fairy
friend called the Magical Mushroom,
who is a servant OF the Fairy Queen.
He gives the twins a pair OF Magi-
cal Green Shoes. which they wear
whenever the Fairy Queen wishes
an errand done.
The Mushroom himself possesses
the magical gift OF speaking any
language.
The Green Shoes not only can
carry their wearers safely over land
and sea. but they can change the
size OF their owners at will.
Already have the twins been of

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15-Excluding Great Lakes vessels the worlds steam tonnage today totals nearly 5000 900 gross tons. according to the new edi- tion of Lloyd's Register of Shipping for 1921-22. This is an increase of about 14,O0O.OOO tons since June 30, 1914. Within this period the steam tonnage of the United States has null tiplied six times while that of the Unit ed Kingdom has gained but ? per cent. We now have nearly 75 per cent as much seagoing tonnage as the United Kingdom and 23 per cent Of tho worlds total. In 1914 we had a trifle more than one-tcnth as much tonnage as the United Kingdom and less than , per cent of the worlds total The following table shows the worlds steam tonnage for 1914 and 1920:

 It will be noted that the United States occupies second place in point of world tonnage in 1920 and this is the position we must strive to occupy in the future. While world sailing tonnage decreased during this 6-year period, the United States was the only country to record gain and at present fl per cent of sailing tonnage is under American registry, the world sailing tonnage for 1914 being &,6S6,- GOO compared with 3I2S,O00 for 1920; that of the United States increasing from 943. 900 to l,lSGOO0 tons.

PRISON REFORM BYDAUCHERTY
 PROPOSED
By International News scrvlcc)

WASHINGTON. Oct. l5.-Prison re form that will re.mold bad characters into good ones today stood out as one of the big things that the administra- tion must do to improve citizenship At torney General Daugherty declared. discussing new system he has evolved for handling federal prisoners
 Attorney General Daugherty's plan, now about ready for President Hard ing's approval soon will be ready for congress. It calls for the establish. ment of new federal vocational train ing plant. where prisoners can be taught trades and otherwise rebuilt" so they may become useful citizens after their terms expire
 There are about 800 young first termers in federal prisons. who would be elegible for transfer from prisons where now confined to the institution which the attorney general proposes to establish.
 The attorney general will ask con. gress to authorize him to take over one of the big cantonmcnts. left on tre governments hands at the end of the war. and rcconvert it into an educa. tional institution, with industrial feat ures somewhat along the lines of ex- isting reform schools.
 What many of these prisoners need more than anything else is a chance to make good" said Mr. Daughcrty. "To let them remain among hardened criminals, the life termers and others. seems to me. a big mistake.
 "I maintain that citizenship can be made better by some system that will reconstruct these prisoners. restore their selfrespect, and equip them to face the world with some earning power ut the end of their terms. After a further study of the problem and conferences with the president and others. am convinced that we are working along the right line"
 FAITH IN THE FALLEN
 Mir. Daugherty took the position that it is not a good thing for the country to release from prison those types of offenders who have become hardened in their criminal tendencies and are likely to continue in evil ways after the laws hands have been re. moved from them
 "I can walk into any prison in the United States and pick out ten men l would be willing to trust" said the attorney general That applies to any prison anywhere Put those men on their honor, let them know that there is someone who has an interest in them and they will make good"
 NIT. Daughertys psychology has been tested and found loo per cent He cited his experiences with prison CTS in reform institutions in Ohio and elsewhere. He has aided in the estab. lishment and operation of some of these reform schools He has watched the development of the inmates into useful citizens. He has found them in later years, law-abiding, honest with their fellow men and in some instances filling conspicuous roles, as leaders in civic undertakings for community bettermen.
 Good results achieved in the han. ding of the young offender in Ohio reform schools can be extended upon much broader scale to feleral prisons, he believed. It is possible to make such federal vocational school practically selfsustained by introduc- ing factory equipment. MT. Daugherty said. Such an idea may be embraced in his plan.
