It is said to be ca pable of sailing as fast and as far as the battle fleet in any kind of weather and will not need the services of a “mother ship.” The huge boat, the first of a fleet of nine similar fighters to be built, can cross the Atlantic and return without re plenishing its supplies of fuel. With a displacement of 2,IM tons, it develops a speed of twenty-one knots at the sur face and nine knots an hour submerged. It is 341 feet six inches long, has a maxi mum breadth of twenty-seven feef eight and five-eighths inches and will carry a crew of seven officers and eighty men. ♦ « worlds Record Smashed!

One lionm owner could not afford the g!iuw jiorch, but ho could see no reason why he could not make the storm door as artistic as possible. Almost every storm door on the street was painted a dull gray, regardless of the color of the house or its trimmings. His house had rich brown shingles, trimmed with eream, so.he made the storm door of tongued and grooved cypress, which has a pretty grain, put in a generous win dow, and staim d the door with a dark oak oil stain, then finished it with spar varnish. The door was bung with iron T-hinges painted with gold-bronze paint, which gave a pretty effect against the dark-brown stain. The result was a sturdy storm floor which hnrmonized with the quiet tones of the house and was not an eyesore. This hint, may be useful to other house holders who are dissatisfied with the ap pearance of the front of the house in storm-door time. • * * nil! b hh li'£ T \ As j *1 '-a.

The call letters and other data concern ing the various sta tions are printed on a strip of paper, which is held on two rolls and turned for ward or backward by means of two small knobs. When a station is received as loudly and distinctly as possible, one of the knobs is turned until the call letters of that station are found, and the dial readings are jotted down so thnt the same station can be tuned in later without de lay. There is plenty of blank space on the paper so that, call letters, etc., of new broadcasting stations can be added. ¡■fa •s PAPER Johns Manville Brand Our Price Is Right < ’ollie ,’Hid see olir stock.
