Washington and eight in the SUbtreasuries, have been in operation four years. They are combination washers and ironers. Two girls work at a machine, which is operated by electricity. One feeds the dirty money to the washer and the other catches the clean money as it leaves the ironer. The bills are laid on a moving belt of wet blanket, which carries them on
to meet another moving blanket from ? ST, 5 secured between these two blankets they pass over and around a number of rollers m a tank of soapy suds which cleanses and sterlizes them. Then they pass through rinsing water, and on to heated rollers which cry and iron them. They drop out at the end of the course into the hands of a girl, who scrutinizes each bill to determine whether it is fit to be sent out into circulation As she assorts the bills she stacks those which she considers perfect into piles ready for the expert counters. When the counts are verified the laundered bills are made into packages containing 4,000 of one denomination and kind, and sealed for redistribution among the banks. 3Ubli(loplnion in bankinS circles is divided," Miss Thomas explained, on this subject of laundered money. Some of our banks desire new money and stipulate that they will not accept any other, while many banks request the washed bills, saying that they are softer than the others and are easier to handle. i

cents more than his soldier fellow in the national defense. It is not overStating the case to say that the major part of the fleet's efficiency and the contentment of the men is due, either directly or indirectly, to the generous and varied provender which is now given them whether the ship be in port or plowing her way through stormy seas. There was a time, not long ago when tinned foods, were extensively served on-board our naval craft but the lleet is using less and less ol these all the while. tJpon this point Admiral McGowan, chief of the bureau of supplies and accounts, has recently said: "There are certain things that it is almost necessary to use as a part of a ration. For instance, there is canned corn beef, which is so well understood and so well liked in the navy that its use to a certain moderate extent is not only welcome, but most welcome to the men tney like it. Then canned tomatoes and a few other staples; canned fruits and some vegetables canned are very serviceable and are used right along. But the groat majority of all the fond fnrniowi fn ti, .
