FATHER Of BLOCK SIGNALING
Name Of William Robinson Written
Large in the History of Rail-
way transportation.

An automatic electric system of
railroad signaling was put into sue
cessful operation for the first time 30
years ago. II was the invention of
William Robinson, and the trial to
which he submitted his signaling APP
planes was made early in September,
1872, at the town of Kinzua, on the
old Philadelphia X Erie railway In
northern Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Robinson is very generally re-
ferred to as 1.-The father of automatic
block signaling" His invention is
recognized as the f%orerunner and at
the same time the basis of practical
ly every automatic electric block sig
nal system in use on railroads today"
This tribute to his work appeared
in a recent report of the Interstate
commerce commission: Perhaps no
single invention in the history of the
development of railway transportation
has contributed more toward safety
and dispatch I'm that field than the
closed track circuit"

OLD RAGS USED IN ROOFING
Discarded Odds and Ends Play an I'M
portant Part in the Nations
Housing Supply.

Old rags play an important part in
he nations housing supply, as most
of the roofs on mOdern homes are
partly made from them. In the form
of roll roofings and prepared shingles.
old rags cover more American homes
than all other types combined. In the
preparation of asphalt materials for
roofing purposes thousands of tons of
rags are made use of every year..
Thrift states.
After the housewife has thrown
away her accumulation of odds and
ends or sold them TO the leathern-
lunged junk man who roams the
streets of all American cities and
towns with his j~lngllng bell, they pass
through many hands before eventually
reaching the factory, where they are
sorted and reduced to "A pulp. This is
made into a raw, coarse fabric of long
fiber and great durability. Into every
pore and opening of this cloth hot as
phalt is pressed and the material is
then covered on both sides with as
phalt and crushed slate. The product
of the process is a very durable, wa
terproof solid material which is used
to cover most American houses.

SOCIETY MEN WEAR CORSETS
Fad Spreading in England, and Said
to Be by No Means Confined
to Fops.

The corset-wearing habit among
men is coming into vogue again, says
an investigator in England.
"A leading London corsetiere who
supplies most society men, puts down
a good customers bill at $3.50 per an
nun Let no n imagine that it is
only fops who wear them. The major
ity of wearers are military men, who,
| learn, require Il greater AMOUNT of
padding than civilians. Others are or
binary well-dressed men, given TO man
ly sports, and by no means effeminate.
"A mans figure has TO be gradually
coaxed into shape, and It is put first of
all into a soft silk corset with scarcely
any bones, until he attains by degrees
to the full glory of the perfect figure.
This process usually takes three
months, and five special makes Of cor
sets are employed in the development,
or perhaps it would be more accurate
to say the repression of the figure"

NAVY DAY was celebrated through
~ out the United States on Friday
which also was the anniversary OF
the birth of Col. Theodore Roosevelt.
The occasion brought forth many APP
peals for the maintenance of the eff
cheney of the navy personnel, which,
according to Rear Admiral ROGERS.
should number not fewer than 100000
men. To maintain our ratio under
the Washington treaty, said the ad-
mlral, we should build fifteen or
twenty cruisers of 10000 tons each in
the course of the next few years, be-
sides large submarines. President
Harding in a letter to Secretary DENLY
