 FRESNO BEE, CALF

A Happy New Years greeting card was received in the last mail by the editor of the Nugget, from a real cd sourdough friend, Arthur Buel who is working on the Fresno Bee. Fresno, Califor- mia, as cartooniSt and special writer. Some 40 years ago MT. Buel and ye editor of this humble sheet, worked side by side on the Klondyke Nugget at Dawson dur ing those hectic stampede days, when chalk plate cartoons were all the go. Later we met again and worked on the NoWe News during the stampede days of 1900. About 3 years ago the editor of the Nugget while stopping a few days in Fresno opened up the evening paper, his eye caught a cartoon, which appeared like work seen before and sure eno- ugh down in the corner was his usual trad mark-"Buel'. No time was lost in meeting him af- ter an absence of some 34 years and talk old times over, which he is glad to do with all old tim CTS from the north ountry. MT
 Buel is married and with his fam
 fly are permanent residents of

Front Drive on Boats Is Easier
 On The Rivers

MANNHEIM, Germany, JanlP5 Trial runs here of new river craft, with propellers inthebow instead of the stern, indicate the boat may revolutionize shipping on canals and small rivers.
 Steadily increasing speed of riv- CT and canal craft has been 8 source of constant worry to au- thorities in charge of the water ways.
 Narrow canals and rivers have suffered from fast craft because suction, created by waves formed by these boats, damage the em- bankments and river bads.
 50 far no remedy had been found except reduction of speed a step, however, which is not eco nomical because only part of the boats engine power is utilized.
 The newly constructed vessel. measuring approximately 220 ft. in length and driven by two Die sel engines of l35 horsepower each, has eliminated these diff culties. It goes through the wat CT like fish, it's constructors say.
 This is made possible, it is ex- plained, by placing the two pro- pellers at the bow, thereby secur ing a pulling power instead of the usual pushing force.
 Furthermore, the two propen- CTS run in steel cylinders-the so- callsd Kortsche Uuese-With an extended diameter at front. This construction no, only eliminates all wave formation, but creates additional pressure, thereby in- creasing the effectiveness of the propellers, t was asserted.
 Trial trips conducted on the Neckar Canal under critical eyes of the canal authorities proved the boat travzIiing al speed of seven and a half miles an hour more than twice the canal speed limit-did not produce any waves

Some OF the ships yesterday disap-
peared completely as they darted
through darkened canyons. Ice
formed on the windows of other planes.
