LINER "IMPERATOR" NOW IN
ATLANTIC SERVICE. '
The liner "Imperator," which was
launched in May, 1912, made its maiden
voyage from Hamburg. Germany, to
New York recently, anil is now regu
larly engaged in the transatlantic ser
vice. This is one of the three largest
ships afloat, being exceeded in size on
ly by the "Vaterland" and the "Aqui
tania." In the construction and equip
ment of the "Imperator" thorough pro
vision has been made not only for the
comfort and convenience of the passen
gers, but for their safety. The hull is
divided by steel bulkheads into 36 wa
tertight compartments, which are still
further divided by the steel decks, giv
ing Ihe ship a cellular construction
throughout. The vessel carries 83 life
boats, enough to accommodate every
one aboard. Two of these lifeboats are
motor driven and are designed for tow
ing the others.
Several of the original features of
the "Imperator" are shown in illustra
tions in the August Popular Mechanics
Magazine. Among these is the. Roman
bath, reproduced from the famous
Pompeian hall in the Louvre, Paris.
This bath extends through two decks
and is 65 ft. long and 41 ft. wide. The
pool is 39 ft. long. 21 ft. wide and 7 ft
deep, and is surrounded by special
baths, rest rooms, etc. The vessel car
ries five anchors, the main anchor
weighing over 13 tons.

Wood never failed to let everybody

liner, and when the newspaper men
wouldn't come to him he went to the
newspaper, in a very Mahometian
way. Result publicity.
There was a great deal of interest
expressed around the Grand Circuit
in the Arizona State Fair, the xcel
lent race track out here, and the
chances of getting in on the $29,500
in purses that will be hung dp as
prizes for the winning horses. And
it is more than likely that here will
be an influx of headliners of the
racing game in Phoenix for next fair
such as has not been seen before.
Already there has been the promise
of a number of fine harness horses
for the harness races of fair week.
Another matter that attracted atten
tion was the automobile races, es
pecially the road races, of which the
effete east has heard a great deal. Of
course C. B. Wood immediately told
all about it and more publicity re
sulted. He explained that a road
race in Arizona was no sociability
run, but a sure enough race over
the country roads at breakneck speed.
Additional result. More publicity.
Further result, more people here fair
week. All of this is fine.
C. B. Wood went down to his desk
in the fair offices immediately after
arrival and put in a good day's work
getting a strangle hold on the work
that has accumulated since his de
parture. While away Mr. Wood took
occasion to visit the old home in
Fulton, Missouri.
