Weighing a Train.

WHEN railroad company decides
u purchase new locomotives.
three questions Immediately present
themselves. These are the weight,
the distribution of the weight. and the
effect Of the weight upon the tracks
and bridges of the system. The first
question is, apparently, not hard 10
answer, as the dead weight may easily
be ascertained by placing the loco
motive on a huge scale. However,
1t is important that this weight he
so distributed that the rails. the road.
bed. its bridges, CulVerts and other
structures will be able to withstand
the stresses imposed by the modern
engine in motion. Each wheel of the
locomotive bears its due proportion
of the weight. and therefore each
wheel has a direct relation TO the
stress on the road.
Engineers have found that he hearing
weight over the wheel varies greatly.
even on opposite wheels attached to
the same axle. so the dead or axle
weight of the locomotive as taken on
the ordinary scale would not be a
u lAtcl Ioii III teStlHE Ine distribution
of the pressures on the roadbed.
This variation of weight also affects
the adjustment of the springs of the
locomotive. To ascertain the various
weights which go to make the total
weights of the locomotive, a special
scale has been designed.
At the end farthest from the scale
beam a heavy main lever projects he.
yond the frame a sufficient distance
to catch under the wheel and permit
the weighing. Here a pivot is set
for receiving the wheel the frame
hears upon the base of the rail at
which point all of the weight is con-
centrated. BY turning the hand wheel
located below the beam upward. the
bearing pivot can he placed to its
lowest position and pushed under the
wheel. The frame. bearing upon the
rail, is leveled by the other hand
wheel.

the plans for the Maine from a Brit ish
architect, thus dramatically illustrat-
ing the result of years of naval in
activity and insuiiicjency after the
Civil War.
But there is another immediate re.
suit from the education md training
involved in the maintenance of tie
Navy of the United States. That is
the value of such training to the in
dividual as an individual. and the in
cidental value to the community of the
increased ability and productivity of
this individual. This result is wholly
apart from the value to the Nation
from such training, first mentioned.

gineer, the coppersmith. the machinist,
the bookkeeper, the stenographer, the
naval architect, the handsman. who

serve the public with their knowledge
acquired in the Navy. This is also
true of the pharmacist, the nurses and
hospital attendants, the st0rekeepers.
doctors. engineers, both steam and
electrical. who have received their
training in the Navy. The value of
this output of the Navy is augmented
by our system of four-year enhstments
and by restricting enlistments to
American citizens.
Before giving some details concern
ing the Navy as an educational insti-
tdtiOn it should be observed that not
only are the enlisted men of the Navy
and Marine Corps under the tutelaee
of officers. but these officers in turn
are constantly under instruction from
their own superiors. The main func-
ton of the admiral of the feet in tims
of peace is to train his own staff ana
the Junior admirals under him, who in
turn train those below them. Thus
from the day a young man enters the
Naval Academy as midshiDman
until he retires a 81 as an admiral he
is both teacher and scholar This
situation must he considered in de-
termining whether there are too many
officers.
But in that connection it is also es-
sential to note that admirals cannot
be created in a day. Under our sys-
tenn we allot from So to ~ years for
the training of an admiral. An Of
ficer who cannot at SIS years of age
qualify as an admiral is retired AS
captain. If it takes this long to edu-
cate admirals to exercise that high
command it is obvious that we must
have in the service in times of peace
those who could take immediate com
mand of the large number of decom-
miss oned ships which would prompt
ly be put into commission in an emer-
gency. If work at sea multiplies, this
increases the activities on shore. SO
the demand for officers of long train

Spelling Machine.
GONE time ago there was inven.

SOME time ago there was invented
an ingenious electrical spelling"
machine. applicable not only to Ger.
tain commercial fields, but even to
kindergarten work.
The simplest form Of the machine
is that employed for kindergarten
purposes. 1t consists of an oblong
sheet of metal pierced with Sits run.
ming both vertically and horizontally,
In each slit is inserted a curved strip
OF tin. silvered so as to distinguish
1t from the sheet frame. Normally
these tin strips are out Of sight be.
hind the frame. but may be drawn
out by means Of a magnet. BY
drawing the magnet down over the
frame, letters and characters may
he formed that are plainly visible.
Although the form just described is
a popularity for educational
purposes. there are other and wider
fields for use of the sa me principle.
Perhaps the greatest commercial
az the principle lies in
the electric daylight sign The main
frame is posted in a conspicuous place
and may he OF any size desired, the
tin movable strips being ready to
spell out the letters of the sign. The
strips are then turned out into view
not by a hand magnet, as in the
case Of the kindergarten device, but
by an ingenious arrangement Of elec-
tro-magnets and electrical circuits

board arranged for closing the cir.
cults to operate the sign. One step
farther in this idea is TO fit the type

fOrating a paper strip and then run
this strip through special machine

tact for the various circuits being
made through the perforations. In
this way an operator is only required
TO perforate the string. which, aft
by an automatic machine,
may he made 10 operate the sign.
Such a sign, operated direct from

THE days of the Jack of all trades

The Navy Of today is made up Of
corps of ira ned specialists in both the

Thousands of dollars are spent an
nually in training these specialists.

the same as corresponding trades in
civil life. II the man trained in the

ing commentary upon the success of
Navy training thac 20 per cent of
our trained men are now re-enlisting
to take advantage of the many Oppor
tunities offered by continuous service
in the Navy.
In considering the value Of the ed
ucatiOnal output Of the Navy to the
public it must he borne in mind that
there are many boys who are finan-
cially unable to go beyond the gram

high school but who cannot complete
the course. and others still who can

places at the disposa. OF such young
