Rebecca of Prudence
 Island At Throttle

Prudence Island. R. T., Nov. IT. This island today boasts the only wo- man licensed ferry engineer in New England, and possibly in the country. She is Miss Rebecca Chase, of twenty seven summers, and she rises early every morning to take her place at the throttle of the ferryboat Harvest, connecting the island with Bristol s That she is at home on the sea is demonstrated by her license, which grants her the right to navigate a power boat. Frequently she directs from the pilot house, handling the Harvest with the skill of the ablest skipper.
 Shortly after America entered the World War her grandfather, owner of the ferry, unable to obtain an en- gineer, called upon Miss Chase. who was an exprienced automobile driver. She succeeded in passing the neces- sary examinations
 Miss Chase keeps her domain below decks spick and span. She believes in being a good -housekeeper on ship board as we'll at home.

my action I was doing my duty, that was all.
 But LfIlian's laugh had shattered my self-complacency, and realized anew that one of the penalties-or preroga- eves-of wifehood. is the fierce protec- tive maternal instinct a woman has for her own man. I could no more bear to have Dicky belittled, than I could have endured hearing someone speak slight tngiy of my small sons abilities.
 'T Need Quiet"
 I glanced furtfvefy at Lillian. sha was gazing straight ahead of her at the veranda where my mother-in-Iaw stood, rigidly awaiting us. There was nothing in her attitude to indicate that she had anything on her mind save curiosity as to Mother Graham's mood. But decided that she had wished to be sure of my real attitude toward Dicky before I started my journey and had obtained the answer to her mental query by one of her own char acteristic methods.
 For Q second or two I was fierceIy resentful of the ruSe she had played Then as heard her cheery call to my unsni1ing mother-in-1aw and saw her spring to the ground from the car and go up to the elder woman in a conf dential manner and take her aside, my resentment was swallowed up in grati- tude.
 How should have explained Dtclzy's predicament and my proposed journey to his mother, did not know. I was certain of only one rnfng-that I could leave this perplexing angle of my prob lem in Lillian's hands.

 You probably wish me anywhere else" she said brfskly, "but I'm going to be the original little Buttinsky this trip. It isn't good for you to sit alone and null over things. So I'm going to be the real domestic article and mend for change while we wait for develop ments- I need little quiet recreation anyway after your mother-in- law"

 Lie on your back on hard mattress, hands stretched down at your sides, palms down.
 Now bend your knees slowly, drawing your legs up till your knees are bent as far as they can go and your heels are close to your body.
 With sudden jerk, straighten your legs out perfectly straight and flat against the mattress. toes stretched out as far as they can go.
 DCAw up slowly, counting seven.

HUMAN EYE CAMERA YIELDS
 MOVING PICTURE IN RELIEF
Depth and Background Produced by Ingenious New Method of Photography Employing Two
 Sets of Lenses.

Do you remember looking through a "stereoptican'' when you were a child, and exclaiming with surprise that it seemed to make the pictures stand out'' so that you felt as though you could reach out and touch them.
 A landscape scene looked so realis- tic that you felt as though you could walk right through the lenses onto the turf, lean against tree, or climb a neighboring hill. Water scenes showed all of the little troughs in the waves and the shore s1oping down to the edge!
 But "stereopticans' aren't found on the centre table of the parlor any more. The indoor sport has given away to movies and other forms of diversion. Right here, however, is where one learns that there isn't much new under the sun after all, for the stereoptican process has now been ap- piled to the movie, through the me dium of the "camera with the human

eye.''
 The process was invented by Harry K. Fairall, movie photographer.
 Stereoptican projection of motion pictures is looked upon as one of the most important developme in the picture making world The effect is accomplished by the projection on the screen of two positive films super imposed, which have been photo graphed at the same time through a single camera having two lenses, separated distance apart equivalent to the position of the human eyes.
 The films are treated in such a way as to allow projection at any distance. and the use of viewing screens sini- lar to spectacles, consisting of a blue and red Tense which are, complem en- tary colorS, makes possible stereop- tican vision in that each eye sees a single picture of it's own, which is necessary to obtain the relief and perspective.
