B. Willlamson, inventor of the "Photosphere" -- a device for taking pictures on the bed of the ocean in his exciting book "Twenty Years Under the Ses." p 3 During the filming in the Wesé In: .dies of Jules Berne's wonder story, "Pwenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," some of the divers engaged in making the picture -- under Mr. Williamson's direction -- were impa-| tient to catch a certain steamer for New York, but as the undersea work was net completed. in time, the boat left without them. It was the steamer"s farewell whistle heard faintly by the divers be- low, that broke the bad news to them. They had missed the boat, Let Mr. 'Williamson carry on: "Then suddenly and unexpectedly, amazingly clear, a human voice brqke through the silence of the ocean's depth. ' ' 'Hey, Crilley, there goes boat!' "Clear and distinct. as if in'the open air came the words in Jack Gardner's voice. I gazed at the diver unbelievingly. Was it possible?

"The next minuté the water was filled with excited voices, with exple- tives as the divers suddenly and mir- aculously having discovered that they could converse, gathered in a group and shouted and talked to one an- other. They were like deaf mutes with ' volce and hearing suddenly restored. -+- "Garden had solved the problem, He had made an epochal discovery. Impatient at delay, chafing under the restraint, he had sought to ease his mind by ragging Crilley, He had re- moved the breathing tube of his self- eontained suit from hig lips and had spoken, taking a chance on breathing "the foul air in his helmet.

No other ship has ever had five funnels and six masts! "Noah's Ark was 300 cubits long; BO cubits wide and 30 cubits high; since a cubit is about 18 Inches, Noah's Ark must have been a formid- ____able craft 450 to 500 feet long," points "out Eric Hodgins and F. Alexander Bagoun, authors of "Behemoth: The Story of Power." "No modern marine engineer had been sufficiently courageous to build a competing ship, untll, in 1845, Scot Russell, and his associates began, "upon the banks of the river Thames, the construction of the premature le- viathan known ag-the "Great East- ern," state Messrs Hodgins and Ma- goun. "She was 692 feet long, 83 feet beam (118 feet over the paddle boxes) -- BS feet in depth and 28 feet in draft. Her displacement was some -- 28,000 _ tons. Tt took four years to build her. "She was a famous and picturesque craft, and a triumph of naval architec- ture. She had a double bottom (its first appearance), and 'fifty water- tight compartments, Yet for all these physical dimensions, she wag tr ic ally under-engined for her size. After living an unhappy and frustrated life ghe was -- in 1887 -- turned over to the ship-breakers and her twenty an- chors scattered to the seven seas."

At the No. 6 shaft, necessary preparatory work prior to sinking a two-compartment shaft from the 425- ft. level was completed and the winze is now bottomed at a horizon which is equivalent to the 1,050 level at No. b shaft.. A drive on this level is now in progress to connect the No's. b and 6 shafts. Four new levels from No. 6 shaft were opened up on which 600 ft. of sinking and 143.5 ft. of station cutting was completed. While sinking was in progress, development was tensions to previously known veins. A total of 1269 ft, of drifting, cross- cutting and raising was carried out with 21% of work in ore.

Machines Writes the St. Catharines Standard ---1t has been common in the last five years for people to blame the machine age for the depression, and the proposal seriously put forth re- cently that "all adding machines, cash registers, calculators and similar business machines be put on the scrap heap in order to make jobs for a mil- lion more office workers," aroused the ire of a writer in American Busi- ness and, in the opinion of The De- troit Free Press, proved the case that machines have not diminished employ- ment but have increased it. of the type-setting machine is typical. Here is where the investigator found: The typesetting machine came into general use in 1890 when the popula- tion of the United States was about 62,000,000. At the same time 30,060 typesetters were at work. In* 1930, after the American people had doubled in number, 183,432 com- positors, linotypers and typesetters were at work. % In other words, the niimber of men and women employed at setting type had multiplied six times. And the average weekly wege had increased three fold. . A great deal more could be said about the improvement to the service to the public, the enlarged part ad- vertising ie able to plav. and the betterment' in. general working condi- tions. It would be interesting, too, to have the figures of the more or less dismastled industry manufactur- ing buggies and sleighs and tlie in- dustry which has replaced it, the manufacture of the motor car with its dependent services and employment.
