 Since 1906 which happens to be the same year that the Navy first inaugurated the Navy "E" for excel- lence in gunnery, engineering and general efficiency, Waterbury has been turning out valuable equipment for the Navy. Tn that year q high speed gear application, involving the hydraulic transmission of pow CT for the turning of gun turrets was developed by this company and installed for experimental purposes aboard the battleship U. s, s. New Mexico. This system was later made standard throughout the Navy and as far as is known, represent ed the first time that any Navy had ever introduced such an appli- cation for hydraulic transmission of power.
 Speed Gears
 Until 1895, when it was acquired by the sperry Corporation, Water bury continued producing speed gears for the Navy and industrial purposes. The company then conn prlSed 100 employees and utilized 30,- 0c0 square feet. Tn l040, Waterbury Tool was merged with VlckerS, Inc, c subsidiary of the sperry Corpor- ation.
 Waterbury Tool Is now producing a large number Of high speed hy- draulic machines used in annluni- ton, powder ana protective hoists aboard the newest battleshtps, cruis-' CTS, deStroyers, aircraft carriers and other types in tho rapidly expand- ing two-oceaii navy. Another very important contribution that Water bury makes to the excellence of Naval gunnery is their fire control equipment and hydraulic transmits sion of power for the high speed control of guns.
 Almost every ship in the Navy for the past 30 years has been equipped with steering gear pumps and trans missions for windiasSes made by Waterbury.

She flew cut of the room. He had
been foolish and he knew it.
That winter was cold, with deep
SHOWS. His practice had picked up
again, but when he made out his bills
at the end of the year, he found that
outside of his city work he had earn
ed less than two thousand dollars in
II months. But at least it was good
to be tired, to drop into his bed, so
that the alert censors in his brain
could shut Beverly even out of his
dreams. Like Lily in her drugged
rest, he asked only to forget; and he
was never to know that the unpol-
ished stove in the kitchen with its

gy crematory of his dead life.

couraged and heavy-hearted. Never
thless he got through his first two
months creditably. Weary as he was,
the familiar sights and smells of the
operating room never failed to rally
him.
Now and then Grant or one of the
other men would wander in to watch
his work. He was a fast and sure
worker and they felt certain pride
in him.
Chris was modest, and they liked
his work, but when it was over,
they would go down in the elevator
to their waiting cars, feeling as if
they had built up a young Franken-
stein to destroy them.
"Works too FAST" they would say
to themselves. Brilliant of course,
but reckless, too. He'll get into

He got into trouble during the
third month of his service.
He had gone down to his usual
cherries breakfast, to find trem-
bling Lily waiting for him in the
doorway. Some one, she said, had
got into her room during the night
and stolen the rent money from her
pocketbook.
Got in?" he said incredulously.
"How?"
"By the shed roof" she said tone
lessly. II never heard a thing, Doc
tor. That's the truth. My window
was open, and you can see the marks
in the snow"
She had many faults, but she was
no liar. Chris, examining the roof,
saw that she had told the truth, but
he suspected her of guessing the
identity of the thief, as he did him
self. He said nothing, however, and
ended by forcing her to take some
coffee and stating that he would not
go to the police.
"Not a chance in the world of
finding him." he told her. "But I'd
open the other window hereafter"
1t was disturbing even serious, but
he picked up his newspaper to avoid
her tragic eyes and saw confronting
him the announcement of Beverly's
engamements to Jerry Ames, cabled
from Paris. He sat quite still, hold
ing the paper in front of him. Per-
haps he had never abandoned hope
until that moment. Now, dizzy and
shaken, he realized that that particu
lar page of his life had been turned
over and the book closed.
With a set face he picked up that
everlasting bag of his, got his hat
and coat, and started for the hospital.
He was apparently quiet enough.
