' ""*• Though paper clothing was invented a hundred years ago, it w«« never made any real us« of till the Hun found himeelf cut of? from the world's â- applies of cotton and wool. In 1917 alone over 45,000 tons of paper In Germany was converted into paper yarns and woven into fab- rics of all kinds. This yarn is mad<i from the best quality paper. The paper is cut by special, revoh'lng knives into strips a little less than half an Inch wide. These strips are ti^'istud, and then treated with a special mixture to preserve them frcm y«, \ncer, damp. After this treatment this pa- \j ijit per yarn can be woven into almost any kind of material, varying from coarse canvas to cloth used for mak- ing sheets, underlincn, tablecloths, and so on. Every kind of material, in fact, usually made from cotton or wool has been manufactured by the Hun from this paper yam. Blankets, dress materials, waterproofs, even towels and stockings, are made from the yarn, which stands sending to the laundry almost as well as ordinary goods.

Discovered by Traders. This far northern port on the Dvina River, twenty-eight miles from the White Sea, was discovered, like Am- erica, in the tireless efforts of traders to find a short cut to the East. On August 24, 1553, Sir Richard Chan- celloi', who had been sent out from London to discover a sea route to [ndia and China around the northern 3nd of Norway, landed at tho mouth of ihe Dvina. He was summoned to Mos- cow by Ivan thi Terrible, and re- ceived important trading orivileges for his co'.intrymen. His little settle- ment, of which no trace now remains, was called Kholmogori, and the pres- ent site of Archangel was settled in 1581. Daring the seventeenth century it formed, as the only seanort of Rus- sia, the trade outlet for Moscow with Entrland and Holland. ITie little town took its name from the Convent of Archangel Michael, which was erected at the southern end. In tlie principal cathedral is a wooden cross, fom-teen feet in height, which was carved by Peter the Groat, nie University of London is allow- ,ing such students to oacs a simple examination of a personal character the place.

Peter played an important part in the history of Archangel, for. when Archangel had established itself as the only port in that region, the Czar tho only pert in that region ejimM saw in its nro?perity a serions obstable to his ambition to make St. Peters- burg the great city of Russia. In order to divert the trade of Arch- angel, he placed it under vexatious :ommercial disadvantages and for sixty vears traders had great hard- shio there.

The shortage of shipping will give an immense impetus to sal- vage enterprise, which will doubtless result in the raising and refloating of a very large number of the vessels which have been sunk in the com- paratively shallow waters around our kory of the northern city is that of coasts, the Narioleonic wars, when all other ports were closed and it did a rush- ing business, dominating tho sur- rounding places in everything. This prosperity lasted for only a short time, and the even tenor of its old life was resumed. War Brought Changes. Few were the changes which came to Archangel until the outbreak of the worl(l war. The closing of the Baltic brought to it an opportunity such as would not have arisen in centuries of faculty other than medicine. These degrees will be placed on a special Hat with the word "War" after the short title M.A.. B.A.. or others. Twelve British prisoners while in Ruhleben camp, in Germany, pas'^ed the London University's matriculation e:camination and others took inter- mediate examinations for degrees in science, engineering and economics. Remedial Measures. The Law Institute is caring for its young legal students by haN-ing pas- sed the "solicitors' articled clerks act," whereby students who have been articled may count the period of war service as part time under articles. The Institute of Chartered Account- ants has already planned similar re- duction of time for serving, while the Royal Institute of British .A.rehitects has decided to allow "war" students to forego their final examination pro- vided they passTne intermediate one. Orders have been introduced into the bylaws of the Institution of Civil Engineers which will allow students' war service to count as having fulfilled a similar tin.a in study, apnrentice- ship or other practical engineering service. The appointments branch of the Ministry of Labor has obtained grants from public funds toward the train- ing expenses of demobilized ofiri"ers and men who desire financial aid to prepare for a particular vocation. â€" g Don't Walt until you set tho Spanish Induensa.

Can* It is anticipated that the sub-sea magnet, â€" invented in Japan, â€" will play no small part in these salvage operations. Certain salvage engin- eers state that not only will the exact location of a sunken vessel be indi- cated by these magnets, but that the vessel herself v/ill actually he brought to the surface by tho same means. According to this scheme, n sunken I Sure!

The magnets, having been electrically energized from their respective steamers, would then be placed against the steel sides of tho ship. The pov/eiful cables attaching the magnet to the steamer above would be slowly wound up by means of a special low-geared winding-drum, after the sunken vessel had been lift- ed to near the surface, divers would make the necessary temporary repaint and close up all hatches, etc. The water would then be pumped ont of the vessel, and she would be towed to the nearest port. The placing of the magnets in the correct positions against the hull of a sunken vessel would have to be | accomplished by means of divers if ' the vessel lay in shallow water; but ! if at a greater depth than 200 feet â-  an electrically-controlled submarine i would be employed. In the southern portion of the North Sea, where the largest number of ships have been sunk during the { war, the average depth Is not much j over 100 feet, which would make sal- ! vage operations comparatively easy.
