ALL-ELECTRIC SEA CRAFT NEXT Less Steel and Labor Required for Ships. PHILADELPHIA, July SP—Th* ship f the future -will be entirely electric welded and of electric power. It will contain about 15 per cent less steel, will take 40 per cent less labor, 25 per cent less time for construction, 2 per cent less power for propulsion, will be cheaper to maintain and will have 5 per cent more capacity. These figures are the result of a long study by research engineers of the Chester Shipbuilding Company, who have prepared plans for a 9,300-ton freighter, single screw, with a speed of eleven knots an hour and a cruising radius. They mean a revolution In shipbuild ing. WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life CHAPTER CIII. His h“* flung back, his eyes ablaze, and spots of color showing lurid on his cheeks—my seemed aflame with the far spirit I could never touch, the spirit of flying. That was sacred. It held me silent, awe-struck for a moment. And In the pause Jim went on—bnt now he struck another note—irritably: ‘Tor pity’s sake don’t preach, Anne. Leave that to Virginia. Suppose a fel low does like to take a chance now and then. Taking a chance discovered America, didn’t It? All the big guys— the inventnfs and discoverers —gambled, didn’t they? 1 guess adventure’s in my blood. And now that I can't fly any more, don’t begrudge me the one harm less little outlet I can find." His questions burst about me like bul lets.., I couldn’t fend them ofT. I couldn't reply. When he said “Don't preach like Vlrginta,’’ I realized how deep a hol gambling must have on his nature. Foi it, he could criticize the sister he adored. Because of it he acknowledge that this same sister who adored him, “preached." And there I had the whole sad story. In a panic I ran to Jim and laid my hands on his shoulders while I lifted my eyes to his: '.‘Dear—couldn’t you give it up for my sake? Gambling I mean. We can’t af ford to risk so much. We have to get established in the world. Just that Is exciting enough—a real gamble. You’ve done without the other kind for months— ever since I’ve known you.

Illinois St. Open 4 Doors South of Ohio Street I§lll|P‘ Saturday £mm . Night The hull of tbs ship is to bo electric welded throughout and, therefore, wholly without rivets ip its construction. All plates are abutted without lapping straps or angles and then are welded with a joint which the engineers claim will be 95 per cent as strong as the steel members themselves. This eliminates all overlapping steel in plating, angle irons or rivets. The saving of steel in this design will bo 450 tons. “Owing to the elimination of about 450 tons of useless metal in hull, the initial cost of material will be redneed accordingly. “By the substitution of electric weld ing for riveting a great deal of labor will be saved. “Due to the elimination of loose, leaky rivets, and elimination of air and water pockets in riveted joints where rust may form, and the substituting of smooth, for irregular,, surfaces. tbc By/ANN LISLE. tore my clap from his shoulders. He flung me off—my husband flung me off! ‘Tn tired, I tell yon—and I don’t want to listen to any sermons. What are you complaining about? I won two month’s salary In a minute, didn't I? You aren i the loser —are you? I’m lucky at betting. It’s the only thing I am lucky at.” ’’But, Jim, it’a such a terrible habit”— I began. ‘Habit!” Jim laughed. “Habit noth ing! The thing hasn't got me—you se% that for yourself. If It had I couldn’t put it off for months, the way I do. If I can take a little flyer now and then and clean up a tidy little pile, why should you whimper?” It was brutal and cruel. The Jim who spoke wasn’t my Jim at all. I didn't know how to .answer the tense, eagle like, glltterlng-eyed man who had taken his place. In the second I stood hesitating, the door opened and Neal came whirling in. He wasn’t tired at all; he looked happy and young and vital. Jim turned on Neal with a snarl that held all the venom I had called up. “We got in half an hour ago,” he as claimed. "Where have you been, young fellow?" There waa no anger, no resentment in my quick-tempered young brother's man ner as he replied. Only gentleneas and sweetness. His voice was bushed, full or young happiness: ”1 was with Phoebe," said Neal.— Cepyrigbt, 1920 (To be continued). maintenance costa will he considerably reduced. “The exterior, or wetted surface of the welded hull la smoother than the riveted hull, so that resistance to pro pulsion, fuel consumption and the ca pacity of propelling machinery, will be about 2 per cent less. “Girders that cross each other become continuous and therefore no compensa tion need be allowed for discontinuity. “Water tightness is easily and com pletely attained even in most difficult places. “As much labor and material will be saved, considerable time will be saved In the construction of the hull.
