The motorvessei Sa;urnia, like her sister ship Vulcania, has a gross tonnage of 24,000, dis placement of 35.500 and length of 6S2 feet. Both ships were built in the ccmpany's yards at Mentfalccne, Italy
 The profile os .ha vessel is dis tinctive, in line with the new trend of motorvessels. The single short stack, the close masts, the gradually ascending super struc- tare give it an original aspect, which many say represents, the approaching type of ship. The Diesel engines, the most power- ful in the world. are two in num- bea, each of eight cylinders, and they develop over 24,0o0 horse power, giving speed of P knots. Auxiliary power brings the total horsepower to .oyesa 33,OO0.
 She is of the latest type safety construction, having a double bot- tom and ten transverse water tight bulkheads. Fireproof com partments are another element of safety. The nine decks are reach- ed by eleyptors and staircases, with acconlmodations for several elasses of passengers. The matter of safety has also been considered from the navigating viewpoints for which the latest electrical devices have been installed.

The public rooms in this class are in period style, from fifteenth cen tury Tuscanian to Louis XIV. and from Chinese to Neo-Greak The de luxe suites incorporate numerous applrtenances beyond the ordinary. Several well-known firms of the continent have had hand in turning cut this part of the ship; among tnem being Portoix and Fix of Vienna; Marsh, Jones and Cribb of Leeds; and Copede of Flor enee.

RURAL HIGH SCHOOLS
GREATER THAN CITY

Washington, D. C.-There
are a greater number of high
schools in the country than in
the city, but those in the cities
arc larger and tlz~ir numeri-
cal total of attendants is much
greater than that in the. coun-
try schools, according to sta
tistics of the Department of
the Interior. 1t was stated
that the country youth had
less opportunity to continue at
his books through the second
aTy stages of education than
has the city youth.
These facts are compiled by
the federal Bureau of Educa-
ton. 1t states that there are
today in the United States 21,-
700 high schools. Reports have
been received from 17,711 Of
these, Of which 1850, or 22.4
per cent, are urban high
schools, that is, they are To-
Gated in centers Of $500 or
more population; 1851 or
IT'S per cent, are rural IOcat-
ed in centers of $500 or less
in population.
In the 1851 rural high
schools in the United States
there are only 1,079,086 child
rem, or 28.8 per cent of the to-
tai high school enrolment; in
The $3.50 urban high schools
there are 1862, 1854 children, or
71.2 per cent of the total en-
rollment.
It is estimated that more
than 18 Of every 100 children
is to 18 years Of age in urban
areas continue their education
beyond the high school, while
only ~ Of every 100 children
Of fhe same age-group in rural
areas seek further education
preparation.
As secondary education has
and is now funct-
Joining, the urban high school
child has a much better chance
to 90 to high school, and when
he does 60 he enjoys an edu-
cational opportunity much
better adjusted to ifc's need
than that now available in the
rural schools.
