The navy department has been working on a device for measuring ocean depths by means of reflected sound waves, but as yet has not perfected if to a point where it wishes to give out information regarding it. A recent German device of similar nature which is described in an illustrated article in Popular Mechanics Magazine has been developed. by means of which depth measurements, acegrais to within one foot, can be made even when the ship is moving at full speed.

Just one Of my race that has been

He is neat and quiet in his work.
He goes about his dancing seriously,
making every tap of the foot count
and going from one step to another
with the utmos. ease and technic.
While he may not do the most diff
ficult steps, he is expert in the ones
he does do, including doubles" and

admiration as we'll. He makes funny
noises with his mouth, sounding like
muted trombone or cornet, and US

Forest Fire in
This Play Reaches
Height of Realism

One Of the biggest attractions
booked. for vaudeville this season.
from a scenic standpoint-is "The
Storm" Langdon McCormick's spec
tacle, which comes to the Orpheum
theater next week. Vaudeville pat
rons have become accustomed to
mammoth productions by Mr.. Nc
Cormick and they have been thrilled
by his former efforts. "The Forest
Fire" and "On the High Seas" This
season he has utilized his rare gifts
in stagecraft for the production of
even a greater thriller, called "The
Storm" 1t was this same piece that
thrilled audiences in the legitimate
theater in New York and Chicago
for many months before it was con-
sidered for vaudeville purposes.
All the possibilities that are sug-
gested by the title have been met for
stage purposes in this latest produc-
tion. For realistic effects Mr.. Nc
Cormick probably has no second il
theatricals. In his "Forest Fire" the
audience first got glimpse only Of
a cloud of light smoke, supposedly
several miles away. This soon gained
headway until the stage seemed to be
ablaze. So realistic with the illusion
that the performers in the tense
drama seemed to be in danger Of

hooks OF the eonntry's conservative
dramatic critics will suhstaniiate this
claim.
The play itself is notable enough

parts arc seemingly made to orde;

Betty Linley and Robert Renie!
Certainly Mr.. Drew has never been
seen to better advantage. and what
is true OF this very important actor
holds equally good for Mrs. Carter.
For the presentation OF "The Cir
Gle" the Selwyns have provided a
production that is worthy OF the SUBJ
ject, and while the play encompass
es only one scene. this is set with
lavish care for detail that would
please the sensibilities oi an inte-
rior decorator. And by the same tok-
en- Mr. Vaughan has provided a
play that is worthy OF its produc-
| tion.
Since starting upon the present ex.
elusive tour. which will last until
July. THE Circle" has tabulatcd un-
heard OF box office records and this
goes TO further prove that playgo-
er., outside OF New York, will re-
spond TO attractions OF a worthy ma
ture, thereby extinguishing the cry
that il is a dual season.

known dramatic power, has the stel-
lar role in Langdon McCormicks
spectacular me o d ra ma, The
Storm For the closing week OF
the Orphcum, beginning with to-
day's matinee. this is to be the chief
attraction. The vaudeville produc-
ton retains all the thrilling fire ef-
fects that characterized the expand

startling forest fire is displayed at
the climax of the play. At first the
blaze appears far off, but steadily
creeps nearer and nearer log
cabin wherein three people. two men
and little French Canadian girl

It's a tough life they lead-these

I heard about something tho
other day that made me feel good
for q week.
IL seems that . young fellow
landed . good Job and was max.
ing good on the works when ho
rot . little bit wild and started
playing the races and gambling
and playing around with Wild
James.
His work up to date had been
fine and when he started TO show
up In the morning "aI in" for
sieep and made little mistakes
through carelessness II looked
bad for him, especially when tho
boss called around TO have . look
Mt him on the sly.
Taking In the situation ut .
glance, old side whiskers didn't
give him tho gate like some OF
the mob who was In line for i'd
vancement thought he would, but
nc rang the gong and had the
young guy sent In.
Knowing only too we'll that he
had been slkidding, the chap fig
ured that now he was In for the
air and he took . little time pre-
pairing himself for the interview,
cause you know nobody likes to
hurry into bad news
REAL TALK, REAL HELP.
Well, Il seems that when he
went In to see the boss the old
guy smiled kindly and told tho
young fellow to take q chair, that
he wanted 70 have little talk
with him.
And then the boss went on to
tell him how satisfied he had
been with his work up to GER
tain date and that he knew there
must be something wrong. some
thing worrying young Jones, to
have him skid like that.
And Of course young Jones
coughed and laughed . cholxy lit
tie laugh and mumbled something
and then the old party comes
around and puts his arm on.
Jones' shoulder and says to him:
something like that, II Amt for
got when was . young fellow
first making a little good money.
I remember how I wanted to dOu-
BILE Il on my luck and how ] usts
lose at playing cards, and II was
. long time bfeore I found out
you can't beat the horses, and
that some women are hard to get
rid Off
Young Jones tried to pretend
he didn't understand, but ne did,
and then the boss went on and
told him that he was too fine .
fellow 10 70 under on account Of
. few first mistakes and all he
wanted young Jones 20 tell him
was how much he was In bad and
he'd straighten him out II he'd
swear to stick 10 the job steady
after that.
RIGHT KIND OF CHARITY.
Well, Young Jones just broke
down then and the boss wrote
out . check for what was .
comparatively small sum, and
handed Il to Jones, and Jones
walked outts that office Q now
man. but not before he had
shook his boss's hand and
thanked him and -omised to
give. the best he had ever after
wards to the firm.
Gee! II there was only moro
real guys like that to work for.
Many fine. young fellow
would have pulled himself to.

only had . boss. like that.
