DIVING FOR THE SUBMARINE F-4 The sinking of the F-4 of the Ha waiian submarine flotilla during ma neuvers In Honolulu harbor on March 2.". when It failed to rise after diving with Iwenty-one members of its crew, is the first fatal disaster that has oc curred to an American undersea craft. An account of the disaster appears in the June Popular Mechanics Maga zine and a number of Illustrations show the work of locating the position of the lost craft, which involved some remarkable diving. The article states: "In making the unprecedented dive to the bottom of Honolulu harbor the naval operative wore an ordinary div ing suit. Altogether he was under the water for about two hours. The de scent wa.« made very rapidly, only five minutes being consumed. After In specting the hull of the submerged vessel and ascertaining how the lines were lying he commenced to be raised to the surface. An hour and 4 5 min utes was spent in doing this, so as to accustom him slowly to the decreasing pressure and the final change to the :rmal atmospheric pressure. This procedure Is made necessary by the tremendous pressure a diver Is sub jected to when under a great depth of water. At 300 feet this amounts to aproxlmately 130 pounds to the square inch, or for a man of average stature, an aggregate load of possibly 140 tons. A quick descent Is possible, since an increase In pressure can be readily withstood by the body, up to a certain point, but on ascending every possible care must be taken to allow the body to become accustomed to the lighter load. This Is the reason that seven eighths of the time the diver was In the water was spent In raising'him to the surface." CAPTAIN AND CREW SAFE Port Huron, Mich., July 13.—Cap tain Charles Fox and, the crew of the steamer Choctaw, of the Cleveland CUfTs Iron Company which laden with coal upbound, was cut In two off Prepque Isle In Lake Huron during a heavy fog Monday morning, are safe • in port at Sarnia, Ont.. opposite here where they arrived to-day aboard the steamer Wahcondah, of the Canadian Steamship Line, Limited. The Choc taw sank Immediately. , TUESDAY EVENING, CHANGE iS EDED' Blf ALLj*yS DIXON, Commissioner of Health Gives Some Idea in Regard to the Care of One's Health The average man needs a change aaid should have it, says Dr. Samuel Q. Dixon, the State Commissioner of Health, In his weekly hygiene talk. Dr. Dixon discusses the danger of get ting into routine habits and not taking proper recreation or change. In his comments the commissioner says: The majority of people who are oc cupied for fifty weeks out of the year should seek in the remaining two to find, not necessarily rest, but a change of environment. , The man who haa struggled through the crowded streets of a city, ridden on packed trolley cars and railroad trains for months on end should make his way to the quiet country side, the camp in the woods or some spot equally free from the press of human- i ity. ; The man who lives In the country or small town may find a correspond- , ing benefit from a week or more spent ; amid the rush and turmoil of the city. Each at thees widely varying environ ments holds the possibility of afford ing a mental stimulus to those who are unfamiliar with their moods. The mind no less than the body needs refreshment and change. It needs the stimulation of new ideat*. It is more difficult to acquire this in ; our ordinary surroundings than where everything Is strange and unusual and I the mind is stirred to activity. It Is j out. of the question for the man who I maintains his regular routine day in and day out to continue to put into !iis work the same vigor. We can become over developed along one line mentally just as readily I as physically and the results may even I more seriously affect our welfare. If in seeking for a change we en counter surroundings, which owing to unfamillarity, are not agreeable, in the long run we profit. If in no other way, at least they make our own daily round seem more acceptable by con trast. , So plan your vacation that it will bring you to realize afresh how multi farious and interesting are the activ ities of mankind or how soothing lo the weary mind are Mother Sfature's marvels. Pittsburgh Steel Plants at Its Full Capacity Pittsburgh, Pa., July 13. Orders just issued from the executive offices of the United States Steel Corporation and the separate statement made by various prominent officials of sub sidiary organizations are "to speed up all operating iron and steel plants to maximum capacity, to rush repair work to earliest completion, and to stand ready to turn out more steel products than ever before." The orders which were received by operating managers in the gigantic steel corporation chain, located far and wide throughout the country, pre ceded by a few hours the statement given to Wall Street Saturday noon, which showed the aggregate of un filled orders on hand at the end of June. The unfilled orders on June 30 totaled 1,678,196 tons, an increase of 413,598 tons over May's unfinished tonnage. Running full, with its present capacity, the iron and steel industry of the United States will give employ ment to approximately 500,000 per sons, and will establish a payroll of 5450.000.000 a year. Those figures are far above the figures of any other single manufacturing industry. A PEARL-FISHER OF THE MISSISSIPPI "Good morning," said I, and "Morn in'," said he, as I ranged alongside in a borrowed skiff and inquired of the pearl-fisher if he were getting any clams. He was of large build, smooth shaven and ruddy, deep-voiced, and of the age which he himself described as "gettin' along in years." Facing -tt in the stern of his power-skiff, he was drifting slowly down-stream. With the lines of -a sort of canvas drogue called a "mule" ip his hands he controlled the slow movement of his craft as it dragged over the river bed a long iron bar, to which were at tached the many lines and leads for the clams to foolishly close upon. "No," he said; "don't expect much this time o' year. Ain't any market, anyhow, on account of this pesky war. Looks as though that Dutch Kaiser 'll get what he's been lopking for. don't it? Any news this morn in?" But I did not come to discuss world politics. and steered the conversation to other channels. "Oh yes. get some good ones some times, but they're mostly "slugs' or 'dog's teeth.' Get a quarter apiece for 'em. Use 'em in this here new fangled jewelry. But it's the shells we depend on most. Brought twenty dollars a ton regular till the war broke out. They send them to Germany for imitation mother-o'-pearl in inlay work. "I got a dandy pearl once—was new at the game and lucky. It was as big as a pea, round as a shot, and pure white 'ceptin' on one side, where there was a tinge of pink like you see on the clouds at supup. It weighed five grains and was considered the best stone ever taken out of the river around here. "I didn't keep It long—worse luck. There was a Chicago chap up at the hotel who heard about it, and soon as he saw it he offered me five hundred dollars for it. I was green then, as I r say, and I let him have it, sayin' I'd leave it to his hqnesty that it wasn't worth any more. Guess he kinder mean about it afterward, as the next time he came he brought me a gold watch. Could afford it, I suppose, on my money."—W. J. Aylward in Har- Iper's Magazine for July. x CHA It I.IK CHAPLIN IX HIS LATEST REI.E.ISE, "A WOMAN," AT THE REGENT TODAY Charlie Chaplin, in his latest release, "A Woman." at the Regent to-day.

L**———i—l STATE TO EDUCATE 42.187 CHILDREN Board of Education Arranges For Distribution of the Burden of Maintenance Cost Plans have been completed by the State Board of Education to lighten as far as possible the burden of the expense of maintaining the con tinuation schools provided for by the Cox child labor law to be opened after I January 1 and a system was worked out at an all day session of the State Board of Education yesterday whereby the State appropriation will be dis tributed. There are 42,167 children in the State who will be affected by the Cox act according to the data gathered by the State Bureau of Vocational Educa tion and over half of them are in Philadelphia. The plan is that all funds appropriated for the con tinuation schools will be expended j through the local boards of education as far as possible on the per capita basis. Small districts will be given a minimum. The members of the board consult ing yesterday with Gevernor Brum baugh are very desirous of having the burdens of education made as easy as possible. The plan is to have every thing ready this Fall. The board elected William Lauder, of Bedford, as vice chairman and re elected Dr. J. George Becht as executive secretary. This is taken to mean that Dr. Becht will remain here and not become vice president of Lafayette College. Robert C. Shaw, Greensburg and Dr. W. C. Jacobs, of Philadelphia, the new members of the board attended. There are two places to be filled on the board. A SURE CROP OF MELONS The secret of raising melons in a dry time has been discovered by a Kansas farmer, who had an abundant crop last year, while the fields of. his neighbors were dried up with drouth. Farm and Home thus describes his methods: The previous Fall he dug holes as large as a barrel in the field at the right distance for the melons, and filled them nearly full of corn cobs. They were left open through the winter, and in the Spring he shoveled back a foot of good soil and planted the melon seeds. The vines grew vig orously and produced abundantly. Frequent examination showed that the bed of corn cobs always contained plenty of moisture, even when the sur rounding soil was quite dry. HARRISBUR TELEGRAPH Miss Adams Returns From Peace Conference.

In the first place, they used a side-de livery rake and made the windrows just large enough so that once around the field with the wagon made a load. Following the raking came the load ing. and here Is where the trick of un loading so qulakly came In, writes L. W. Chase In Farm and Home. They used tight bottom racks, so that no time was wasted In finding a place to step, and no sores were made from missing their footing and slipping I through the cracks. They used slings. I When the team arrived in the field, I the slings were in place. One sling was laid across the front half of the I rack with its ends placed over the I sides and held there with short ropes, tied in an easy slip knot. The other ! sling was laid across the rear half of | the rack In a similar way. After the loader was hooked to the wagon, the I loading began. One boy drove the I team at moderate speed and the other j loaded the hay, first filling the back I half of the rack to its proper height, then the front part. At the barn one boy untied the front sling and tossed the ends up to the boy on the load, who coupled the sling to the hoist hook the other went to drive the hoisting team. After the load had been -tripped, one boy pulled the sling back while the other drove the team back and untied the rear sling ready to remove the last half of the load. A DRY SHAMPOO Equal parts of orris root and corn meal make a good dry shampoo and one that Is pleasant to use. You can buy ten cents worth of orris root In any drug store and mix It thoroughly Into the hair and scalp and let It re main for two or three hours or over night If possible. Then brush your head for quite a while, until the pow der does not show. Wash the hair as soon as convenient after giving a dry shwnpov.—l4**, CUHI GOES AFTER LAW BREAKERS Sends Notices That Repetition of Auto Law Violations Will Mean Loss of Cards Dozens of owners of automobiles and chauffeurs have been officially warned by Highway Commissioner Cunningham since the first of tha month that they have been reported for violating automobile regulations in operating cars without front and rear tags, without lights and In other ways contrary to the State regulations. These warnings are accompanied by stQtements that a second offense will necessitate a hearing to show causa why license should not be revoked. As high as twenty complaints of this character have been received by tha Highway Department a day. In addl* tion there are pending several cases In which men have been summoned to show cause why automobile licenses should not be revoked on the chargtt that cars were operated by Intoxicated people.
