2 UNCLE HARRY EXPLAINS HOW TORPEDOES WORK "Toll us about torpedoes, Uncle Harry—the kind that the submarines are using in sinking ships, and how they are used/" asked Jimmy. "How big was the torpedo that sank the Lusitauia?" asked Joe. "About 16 or 18 feet long, and it 'weighed about a half a ton," said L'n cle Harry. "Some of the torpedoes that are being used in this war are 14 feet long and others are 19 feet from tip to tip." ' "How far can one of these torpedoes 'be shot?" inquired Jimmy. "Well, an officer in the United States Navy was telling me on the .train this afternoon, tliat it is pos sible for a torpedo to travel 4,000 Jards, and if it strikes a battleship, even at that distance, sink the big .ship," said Uncle Harry. "Isn't that more than two miles?" asked Joe. "Yes, and 4 10 feet over two miles," id Uncle Harry. "Although most of the torpedoes that have struck ships have beeu tired at a shorter distance — 1.000 or 2,000 yards. You under . stand, boys, the shorter the distance .the fa-ster the torpedo is traveling when it strikes, and also, the more accurately it can be aimed." "How fast do they travel?" asked .Jimmy. "If a torpedo is fired at a 4.000 yari range—that is, 4,000 yards from ' the object it is aimed to strike, it goes at a flite of about 30 knots an hour," explained Uncle Harry: "But if it is Jired at a 1,000 yard range it goes very much faster—anywhere from 35 to 40 . knots; and a knot, you know, is 6.080 feet or 800 feet more than a mile." "Why are they called torpedoes?" asked Joe. "They're shaped like ci gars, aren't they, and torpedoes are round.'' "That's right about the shapes," said Uncle Harry, "but a torpedo does not gets its name from its shape, but from the cause and manner of the ex plosion. The kind of torpedoes boys have on Fourth of July contain a cap and a lot of small stones—all encased in a little paper bag. When you throw a hand torpedo against a wall 'or a etone step, the cap explodes and drives the little stones through the paper cov ering. The war torpedo has, at the .pointed end, what is called the 'war head I ,' which is a compartment contain ing a mixture of dry and wet guncot ton and mercury, which, together, make a dreadful explosive. When this 'war head' strikes the side of a ship an ex plosion occurs, just the same as when SUBURBAN TOWER CITY Twelve Members of High School to Graduate Friday Night :nl Correspondence Tower City, May 25.—0n Sunday evening the Rev.

The directions with every I>ox ere very valuable—eepecletly to women. a Fourth of July torpedo strikes a stone step or the pavement. The explosion tears a hole in the ship; the water pours in; very often the ship's boilers explode and in a few minutes she sinks." "But. how is a torpedo fired what makes it go through the water?'' inquired Joe. "It is fired through a tube (or big pipe that runs from the inside of a submarine out into the water), by the expanding of compressed air and it carries a compartment filled with com pressed air which is automatically re leased the v instant the torpedo strikes the water," explained Uncle Harry. "But what's compressed air?" asked Jimmy. "Just what its name says it is," said Uncle Harry. "You use com pressed air in your bicycle tire—air pressed or pumped into the rubber tube. If a tack or a piece of glass cuts a hole in your tire you have a puncture and the air that has been pumped or compressed into the tire, hisses out with force, just like a stream of water from a hose. On the sub marines and battleships—yes, battle ships have torpedo tubes—there is ma chinery for compressing air and letting it out in such a way that the force drives the torpedo out the tube and starts it on its journey. Then—in the torpedo itself, is a tank containing more compressed air. The instant the torpedo touches the water the com pressed air in the torpedo's compart ment is released. This force is ar ranged to drive two little propellers at the rear end of the torpedo and it goes scooting through the water—a combina tion of a boat and 1 a shell fired from a big gun. In another part of the tor pedo is an instrument called a g-y-r-o --s-c-o-p-e which steadies the torpedo and keep it from going off the line of aim.'' "Torpedoes are wonderful things, arn t they, Uncle Harry?" Joe. "Yes, they are wonderful, and fear ful," said Uncle Harry, "aud, boys, it seems awful that such a wonderful in vention should be used to destroy peo ple's lives. I want you to understand what torpedoes are and how they work, but I also want you to remember that the world would be a much better place if there were more talking ma chines and fewer torpedoes. The talk ing machine is just as wonderful an in vention and many times more important because it gives people pleasure and helps them in their work."—Copy right 1915 by The M-C Syndicate. position in the Health Department at Harrisburg.
