are worth only about cents, while
the used ones are fewer and thus
far more valuable. The overcircu-
lation Of stamps by Germany dur
ing this period explains how Billy
obtained SO many. From the British
Empire he has the complete corona
ton series, including the ones from
all the possessions.
The stamps differ in size as much
as in the distances they've come
One from Italy is a4X12 inch,
while Brazil issue, shaped like two
triangles put together, is about 2
inches square. The latter shows a
piece of manuscript written by a
South American composer, but the
oddity is that the picture is not set
square with the frame A tricolored
series from Ecuador also is unique
as the stamps represent Columbus
voyage with his three ships and are
about 214xl12 inches in size.
A determining factor in evaluating
stamps is the quantity available and
whether the ma ajority of the ones in
circulation are used or unused. Some
old United States airmail stamps
which Billy has are worth about $40
apiece. He also has half of the
United States Columbian issue of
1898, one of which is priced
around So.
Billy states that his pastime has
helped him in his studies of geogra-
ply and history. After the death
OF Queen Astrid the stamps of Bel
gium had black margin. Germany
has the sWastika on its stamps, while
England's stamps with King George
VS. picture contain the dates of his
reign. Thus from stamps skeleton
of the rulers of a nation may be OBJ
tanned.
All philateists have been ham
pered by the war in their collection
OF foreign stamps, especially in get
ting those OF enemy powers. Billy
has bought some of his but prefers
to obtain stamps by trading or from
other sources. His father, captain
and leader of the Marine Band, has
been able to help him keep up to
date with foreign issues through his
work at the Marine Barracks. For
the duration. though. Billy is con-
centrating his efforts on United
States stamps, which will include
first-day issues and State centen-
malls.
AT Mckinley High School, where
he is a sixth semesterite, Billy holds
the position of color sergeant in the
cadet corps and is a cabinet member
of the Students Citizenship Council
He also is in the Chevrons and
Chemistry Clubs, and with his high
scholarship average he's almost al
ways on the honor roll.

Experiments of Four
Centuries Lie Behind
Modern Submarine

The modern submarine is the re-
suit OF centuries of experiment by
men who wished to sail below the
surface of the ocean. Even as early
as the 18th century attempts hac
been made at underwater naviga-
ton, but it was not until TITS that
successful voyage was made.
The inventor of this first success
ful submarine was an American
David Bushnell. The boat was large
enough for just one man and con-
talned enough air to support him
for 80 minutes. 1t was guided and
propelled through the water by
means of oars operated by hand and
was lowered and raised with lead
ballast and with water taken into
and expelled from tanks by hand
mechanism.
The first cigar-shaped submarine
was built by another American,
Robert Fulton, in 1901. He demon
Strated his ideas to the governments
of France, England and the United
States, but never was able to obtain
continual support for his labors, al
though his boats seem to have been
remarkable for their time.
Several submarines were built in
America during the Civil War and
in Europe during the Franco-Prus-
sian War of 1901. Finally really
practical boat was first built by an
American inventor named Holland.
