MAY RECOVER WORKS OF ART
Possibility That Waters of ths Rhone Will Give Up Sarcophagi Long ' in Their Keeping.• An ancient story’ of the greed of kings has been resurrected by an erudite member of the Institute de France, Mr. Adrien Blanchet. The fact 18 there Is some prospective work on hand for the utilization of the Rhone water power. Thus do ancient history and modern enterprise come to hobnob in the revue des etudes anciennes. The story tells how the king of France, Charles IX, coming one day to Arles, saw the Roman sarcophagi and wished them his. He did not covet long, for the next act in this kingly episode, .was the shipping of the most perfect of Rome’s monuments en route for the capital city. This may have furnished a later king of France, namely, Louis XIV, with the precedent for the removal of tlpe statue of Messalina from Bordeaux; not that that monarch ever needed either precedent or encouragement for his actions. The sarcophagi started on their journey. It was in the year 1565. They had unfortunately not gone beyond the famous Pont-Saint-Esprit, before the boats sank beneath so unusual and weighty a load. Now. the congress for the development of water power, which sat in February this year, discussed among other schemes the transformation of the Pont-Saint-Esprit. The question is —and It will be admitted to be an absorbing one —during the excavations in the bed of the Rhone will those sarcophagi, lost nearly four centuies ago, be recovered?
MORE THAN WILLING TO GO
Senator’s Suggestion, Meant as Sarcasm, Probably Was Wish Closest to Adventurer’s Heart. Maj. Cushman A. Rice of Minnesota, the original “Soldier of Fortune,” dropped In to see Senator Knute Nelson the other day, on his way back from war. This last war made about the fortieth Rice has been in, so the veteran Minnesota senator thought Rice had had enough. “Cushman,” the senator said, “why don’t you quit roaming around, go home and run for office? Your male relatives have been governors, senators, etc., and there is no reason why you should not serve your state.” Rice did not seem greatly impressed, so Nelson became somewhat warmer in his remarks. “If you’re bound to fight, why not get over Into Russia, among the reds, and get some real action?” Nelson said, sarcastically. ... Whereupon Rice leaped into the air. "Say, senator,” he shouted, “if you’ll fix it up so I can get over there, there Isn’t anything I wouldn't do for you." That’s the curse of the wandering foot, as the poets would remark. — Washington Star.
Didn't Know Ty.
Hiram Johnson, Republican senator from California, is one of the hottest baseball fans in the country, Jim Phelan, Democratic senator, knows nothing about the game. Here is proof of the latter statement The other day Walter Johnson, premier pitcher of the American league and Ty Cobb, the greatest ball player in all history, perhaps, paid the senate a visit. After they had been introduced all around and been the subject of a great deal of hero worship, Phelan went over to Eddie Halsey of the senate staff, and asked: "Who is this Ty Cobb, anyhow?” Halsey almost passed away, but he managed to tell Phelan that “Cobb Is a fellow who plays ball for—a-11-vißgJ’-Meantime Johnson was enjoyftg hugely the visit of the two ball players. '
Next Morning.
My brother told me this. Marie Is his lady friend, Mrs. Hemming, the mother of his chum. He said: “You know Marte has one, of these bright-red sweaters. I took her to a dance In the park one night and she wore it. Some of the fuzs from the sweater rubbed off on my coat sleeve. Next morning I was in a rush to catch my train and forgot to brush It off. Mrs. Hemming and Dud were on the train and we all sat together. While I was talking Mrs. Hemming leaned over and began to pick this lint off my sleeve. Well, that was an embarrassing moment. —Chicago Tribune.
The Engineer's Eyes.
The importance of the eyesight test is understood in a general way, but few people realize the tax laid on tM eyesight of an engine driver during a" long run. It takes years for a driver to learn thoroughly all the signals on a complicated system, and he must be able to pick out his own at a gjance in the maze of a great junction On the Northwestern railway alone more than 17,000 signals are lit every night, and a driver working from London to Crewe and hack Is controlled by nearly 600 signals.—London Chronicle.
Aunty Would Help.
Bill Bush of L.A.A.C. was showing an elderly lady the virtues of the car he sells. He made many turns and at the proper times extended his arm as a turning signal. - I The old lady watched the proceeding for some time. Then she craned her neck and looked at the sky. “Mister,” she said sternly, tapping Bill on the shoulder, “you just tend to your driving. It don’t • look like rai» no bow, but if It should. I’ll let you know ."—Loe Angeles Times. >
FORD COMPANY BEGAN ON STARTER IN 1911.
Henry Eprd tested the Ford start- | ing and lighting system on his own I car for one year. Ten months ago the Ford Motor company was not manufacturing electric starters; today the output of its starter department is greater than that of any other manufacturer of electric starting devices in the world. Its nearest competitor makes one thousand a day, whereas the Ford company’s output is fast approaching the three thousand mark, I two thousand eight hundred and I eighty-one already having been manj ufactured in one day. The Ford starter—and generator, for it is really two separate units:is not the result of a new idea or of a suddeii’’ dicision. More than ' eight years ago Mr. Henry Ford’s vision saw the need, and his electrical engineers were instructed to begin experimenting. After seven years of constant research, which took into consideration the many different climates in which the Ford 1 car is used, together with the factors of size and weight and an adaptability to quantity production, I twenty-three trial jobs were built. , These were tested in many different ways. Mr. Ford himself used one 'on his car for -a year. Still the en- ' gineers continued their experiments and improvements. : . Then came the order from the government for. 15,000 three-ton tanks, each one of which was to be' equipped with two synchronized Ford Motors. A starter was so the one now being installed on Ford cars was evolved. But, only one starter and generator was used to turn over the two Ford motors in each tank. January first, 1919, the Ford Motor company began equipping enclosed cars with this new starting and lighting system. Ford engineers say that although the entire system—starter and generatorweighs only thirty-one pounds, it produces a higher torque output (constant rotary motion) pound for pound, than any other system on the market When the department for building the starting and lighting systems first began production, fifty hours’ labor was charged to each unit, but now that machinery and equipment have been installed, the time per unit is four hours. Two huge armature impregnating ovens have been installed, each with a capacity of 1,700 every eight hours. In these ovens the armatures are dried, soaked in varnish and dried again. Eight hours’ time is required for this one operation. The power from the starter to the motor is applied through the well known Bendix drive, which automatically engages the starter and then, once the motor is started, the starter immediately disengages. It is equipped with oilless bearings and needs practically no attention. Within another thirty days or six weeks, the Ford -company expects to be making enough starters so that every Ford car will be equipped with the new electric starting and lighting system.
