BUILDING OF JETTIES
AT RESORT PROGRESSING

Jesse A. Rowland & Sons, builders
of the north jetty at Ocean City, now
nearing completion, will build the
south jetty also.
This announcement was made pub
lie by Col. E. J. Dent, district engi-
neer at the same time that the award
of the contract to the Rowland firm
had been made and that preliminary
work on the south jetty already had
begun.
The construction of the south jetty
will involve an interesting and spec
tacular engineering feature in the con-
struction of a trestle 400 feet in
length. Of this length, 1900 feet
will extend over the Sinepuxent Bay
The remaining length will extend
along the line of the jetty itself and
will be used to switch the railroad
freight cars to positions required for
dumping the stone into the ocean.
1t is believed that virtually all the
stone can be dumped directly from
the cars, but if this is found imprac-
ticable, the stone will be trucked from
the end of the railroad line on the
trestle.
The stone will be brought to Ocean
City by railroad from Port Deposit
Md. The railroad has given the How
land firm permission to remove the
railroad ties and tracks in Ocean City
where the railroads tracks and ter
minal have been abandoned since the
storm last year, damaged the railroad
bridge across the bay. The work of
removing the ties and rails is now
going on.
The contractors now have two shifts
of 25 men each working on the south
jetty and one shift still working on
the north jetty, which will be COM
pleted in 80 days.
Under the contract, the south jetty
must be completed in 116 days from
the signing of the contract.
Col. Dent announced that he would
permit the work of dredging the
Ocean City harbor to continue until
after the south jetty's construction
had been sufficiently completed to pre-
vent interference with the stone con-
struction.
The inlet, which will be completed
with the finishing Of the south jetty
will have an entrance from the ocear
side SIS feet wide and from the bay
side LOO feet wide. The south jetty
will be two feet higher than the NORTH
jetty. They will run parallel.

 The cenotaph erected in Poreand, Oregon, last June during the first Canadian Legion convention ever held outside of the British Empire is symbol of a great peace movement, according to an atrcle 'Iegions Against War in the November American Legion Monthly
 The cenotaph was erected last June dur ing the first Canadian Legion convention ever held outside of the British Empire--a convention which brought across the border several thousand men and women who before had been United States sofia convention itself which both Americans and Canadians declare already has done much to cement further the friendly relationships be- tween the two great English-speaking na- tions.

so that after q watch was removed
from q strong magnetic field the rate
was not subject to the irregularities
usually found with the old assembly
Gould says the ideal watch should
keep perfect time under all condi-
tions. But this ideal cannot be at
tanned, he points out, because OF
severe limitations placed upon such
q timepiece.
The mechanism is small, 1t Is driven
by a spring which does not apply q
constant force to the gear train. 1t
Is subject to extreme variations in
temperature and it Is called upon to
operate In all possible positions.
Gould says so far as time keeping
is concerned the most important part
of q watch is the vibrating assembly,
consisting Of the balance wheel and
hairspring. Both the wheel and
spring are Influenced by temperature.
The position of the watch also has
q marked effect on the rate, al
though fine watches may be adjusted
to as many as five positions. The
gradual lessening Of force as the
spring unwinds also influences the
rate, but watches generally will main
tain a reasonable rate for at least "a
hours.
The new hairspring, designed to
overcome some Of these difficulties, is
made of an alloy called "elinvar, 4"
and the balance wheel is solid and
made Of but one metal.

"HE Federal Radio Commission
has just granted permission to
WLW, Cincinnati, to operate
L its new 500 ,000-watt transmit
ter over the 700 kilocycle clear
channel for its full day and night
schedule (6:30 am to l ann. The
station will be more powerful than
any broadcaSting station in the world.
The date on which WLW will advance
its power from $4,000 to 100000 watts
will be announced shortly.
The Radio Commissions approval
followed weeks Of careful study and
exhaustive tests during the last three
months.
These tests have definitely estab-
liShed the fact that the new trans
mitter meets in all respects the
rigorous requirements originally set
forth as to its operation and per-
formance. The most important Of
these, from the point of view Of the
