WRECK ALONG COAST NOT
THAT OF NAVY TARGET
BY GEORGE HI. MANNING
washington Correspondent of the
Perth Amboy Evening NewS)

feTth AluUOy LbCHuhss 4NC"oJ
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE
wreckage which was thrown up on
the coast near Margate City. N. j.,
about a month ago is not that of a
navy target raft, as has been sug-
gested by the Margate Chamber of
Commerce. This information was
conveyed to Representative Isaac
Bacharach by the Navy Depart
ment yesterday.
The report is that some strang ge
mass of timbers was cast up by the
tide early in November. Some one
suggested that it might be the re-
mains of a target used by the At
lantic Squadron; on this sugges-
ton. the Chamber of Commerce,
considering it in the nature of a
public nuisance, decided that it was
up to the Navy Department to dis
mantle and remove the blot on their
fair landscape.
They communicated with Repre-
sentative Bacharach, who referred
the complaint to the Secretary o.
the Navy. An investigation was
made; but the department disowns
all connections with the wreck. say
ing that from the description given
of it, it could not be target ratt.
So the proud claim of Admiral
Wilson that no targets have been
missed by the Atlantic Squadron is
confirmed; and some one, else VIII
have to be found to remove MAJ =
garte's orphaned wreck.

Rereading as Summer Reading

"O every summer reader there
comes an hour when the
--latest fiction" begins to cloy
and the newest things in history and
science pail. Something akin to
psychical indigestion attacks the
readers capacity for mental enjoy
ment, and he or she suffers a revul-
sion at the sight of a new book much
as the dyspeptic does at the sight Of
dining room table that must be
faced three times a day.
Then is the proper moment for the
confirmed reader to set about a cure
for this temporary ailment. for no
real addict Of reading ever wishes
to be freed wholly from this most
delightful Of vices. And there is no
remedy so completely satisfactory in
its results as that of rereading old
books. This method combines the

be overlooked in this prescribed
course. AS one of the main causes of

porary society, one may get ages

great story teller, and to reread Paul
Patoff" or "The Witch of Prague" !"
"The Tale of Lonely Parish" or the
"Sarinesca" series is to enjoy once

fresh in interest and charm. One
great advantage of Crawford is that
if one begins rereading him there is
a whole treasure list of him to draw
upon, including the rather saccharine
"Dr. Claudius." the ingratiating
pathos Of "a Cigarette Makers Eo-

his name, the absorbing "Mr. Isaacs. :"

While Dickens could not have
foreseen the luxury and conven-
fences Of modern transatlantic
travel, he was apparently quite con-
scious of the inadequacy of such ac-
cornmodations as the Britannia of
fered. Incidentally, the fare between
Liverpool and Boston was thirty
eight guineas. which ten years ago
an experienced traveller would have
regarded as decidedly Steep" but
which at the present moment unfor-
tunately seems startlingly reason
able. In American Notes" Dickens
wrote of the cabin shown in the
accompanying illustration as "an

OF the saloon of the Britannia
Dickens wrote: Before descending
into the bowels of the ship we had
passed from the deck into a long,
narrow apartment, not unlike gi-
gantic purse with windows in the
sides, having at the upper end a
melancholy stove, at which three or
four chilly stewards were warming
their hands, while on the other side,
extending down it's whole dreary
length, was long, long row of tables,
over each of which a rack, fixed to
the low roof and stuck full of drink
ing glasses and cruet stands, hinted
dismally of rolling seas and heavy

such sea stories as came from the
pen of Clarke Russell, whose Sailors

Grosvenor" have still all their old
power and charm for those who love
to go down to the sea in ships from
the comfortable depths of an easy
chair on summer veranda.

The rereading of old books is a YER
table tonic; yet, unlike most tonics,
it is an agreeable medicine to take
and is absolutely certain in it's
effects. Moreover, it is cheap and
easily obtained everywhere; for an
old novel, for example, costs just
about one-quarter the price of new
one, and the shelves of the average
country town library are filed with
those books, which are seldom "out"
when you ask the librarian for one
of them.
One very strengthening and reviv-

British Authors at Sea;
Eighty Years Apart

T n 1912 Charles Dickens made his
first visit to America. In 1922
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle came
to see us and then went home again.
Here are pictures of the stateroom
Of the Britannia of the Cunard Line
In which Dickens came, and of the
stateroom of the Cedric Of the White
Star Line, in which Doyle returned
to England They illustrate better
than any descriptive words the de-
velopment in comfort and luxury in
transatlantic travel that four score
years have brought about.
The Britannia needed nineteen
days to convey its illustrious passen-
ger from Liverpool to Boston. There
were eighty-five other passengers,
and Dickens described them: "Such
collection of beasts never was got
together upon the sea since the
days of the Ark" After the first
day Dickens never visited the sa-
loon, finding the noise, the smell and
the closeness there quite intolerable
A midatlantic swell was no light

them from disappearing altogether,

course of every rubber we are all
flung from our seats, roll out at diff
ferent doors, and keep on rolling

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The most en-
crossing picture 1 have seen in quite
a time is 1.-The Mystery Box" 1t has
no love theme, little humor, no star
player, no beautiful settings. In short,
it has none of the elements by which
the entertainment value Of a picture
is usually estimated.
THE Mystery Box" tells the story
of radio. 1t is one of those Bray
films of combined line drawings and
photographs. 1t makes the transmits
sion of sound waves in expressive
forms as easy to understand as the
most abstract physical phenomena.
The amateur radio operator is
shown just how and why the various
elements Of the receiving and sending
sets work. He sees how the radio
wave is varied by the sound of the
voice IN the transmitter and how this
variation is recorded in the receiving
set, the sound being converted again
into its original form, that of the
voice.
Humans have communicated by
sound ever since the beginning of
human creation. yet the secret of
sound transmission has been known
