London.—That Britisn shipyards
and allied industries have double
the business they did a year ago
is a statement made in the Daily
Telegraph of London based on the
latest quarterly bulletin of Lloyd’s
Register; that every admiralty
navy yard and all auxiliary en
gineering and steel works ere re
turning to full time with the prospect
of additional output and added con
struction in non-admiralty yards, is
the conclusion drawn by Hector C.
Bywater, the paper's naval corre
spondent, who lays special em
phasis on the creation of the new
post of director-general of muni
tions.
The $30,000,000 scheduled to be
spent by the Cunard • White Star
line in the construction of eight
liners of from 14.000 to 30.000 tons
has enabled contracts to be placed
at Clydeside, Northeast cobs , Bar
row. Merseyside. South England,
and North Ireland Orders for
more than 300 guns and 30.000 ions
of armor plate have been r*i*« ed in

last three months, an increase of
49,799 tons on the corresponding
total for the March quarter. Dur
ing the last three months there
were launched 167,958 tons, a de
crease of 26,317 tons, so that the
new work exceeds the shipping
launched by 114,364 tons.
In comment Mr. Bywater writes
of the naval program:
“iyx months from now every
shipyard in the country which is
qualified to undertake naval work
will have warships on the stocks,
ranging from 33,000-ton battleships
to submarines and sloops.
“At the same time, every impor
tant engineering establishment and
many smaller concerns will be hard
at work making propelling engines,
boilers, and auxiliary machinery
for dozens of new fighting ships.
“Gun and armor plate factories,
hitherto barely subsisting on small
orders — if not closed down alto

ume of work Plant which has

Why does the lamp of courage
and enthusiasm at times burn low
within the human
heart? Why does
the world seem
“stale, flat, and
unprofitable” or
“sicklied o’er
with the pale
cast” of fear? Is
it not because we
are physically
and mentally fa
tigued? The old
saying “All work
and no play
makes Jack a
dull boy” is true
in our every day
experience. The spirit that is fa
tigued finds a waning interest in
common tasks. The more serious
responsibilities fail to challenge our
courage or creative impulses. When
we are fatigued it is easy to lose
confidence in our friends and in life
itself. Gone is the zest of conquest
and the pleasure of achievement.
I At our wits end we cry. “What's
the use? What it the meaning of it

"right to hold who can.” We con
done gambling by calling it the
spirit of adventure. We argue for
the creed: “Every man for him
self and the devil take the hind
most” as man’s inalienable right
to happiness by force of selfishness.
Thus, physical and mental fatigue
plays havoc with our psychic cen
ters. It “doUi make cowards of us
all.”
Let us remember that every bat
tle in the emotional as well as the
material realm is first won within
one's own mind and heart. This
must be so. Just as the power of
an argument is the product of one’s
own personal conviction, so the suc*-
cess of mastery of an intricate
problem is the direct result of one’s
inner state of mind and heart. Just
as we cannot convince another of
that which we know is false, so we
cannot fool ourselves by thinking
we can build our outer world with
norms and ideals different from
those which we harbor within.
“There is something irresistibly
convincing about the man who is
increasingly becoming everything
that Me is urging others to be.”
Man, the automaton, soon discov
ers that all his efforts are like
“poems without words, music with
out notes and landscape without
color.”
The most effective cure for fa
tigue Is not drugs which are perni
cious. but rest created by change of
environment and the impact of new
and aptifting impulses.

by right be the possession of
everyone, and that is good health.
It is a treasure not to be con
sidered lightly. It deserves to be
sought with determination and
kept with due appreciation of what
it will provide when there comes
a strain on one’s energies. Then
is the time when its worth is es
pecially signifi
cant, although in
times of pleasure,
vigor is impera
tive for full enjoy
ment. While dif-
f e r e n t constitu
tions require dif
ferent treatments,
there is certain

against ill health,
and a certain aid
to keeping good

universal. The

A new use for Bat candlesticks
has been discovered Instead of
the regulation purpose to which
theta candlesticks were used, and
still are in homes minus electricity
selves. Perhaps this quest for
something with which we may re

the store house of human capacity,
and reduce fatigue gave meaning
to the magic word: vacation, the

or gas, a thoroughly modern use
has been discovered. So, if you
have any of this style of candle
stick, now is the time to bring
them out to use for match box
ash trays. Or if you have none
of these sticks, you can follow the
fashion by purchasing one or two,
as they are now fitted with matches
formed into conical peaks, and are
on sale. They are a gift shop
specialty.
The term flat candlestick is de
scriptive only to a degree, for of
course the candlestick is not
actually fiat. It is so by compari
son with tall candlesticks. Another
name for flat candlesticks is bed
room candlesticks. Once upon a
time in the far distant days, can
dles and wicks served as illuminat
ing agents and candlesticks and
lamps were the lighting fixtures in
homes and other buildings. For
candles, tall and flat candlesticks
were chief fixtures.
Flat candlesticks were generally
used to take to bedrooms, being
distributed downstairs, so that the
light from the candles would il
lumine the way through the dark
halls. Because of this use the
name bedroom candlesticks was
sometimes given them, although
they were flat candlesticks. The
holder for the candle is fixed in

MOST IMPORTANT
OF FIVE SENSES
Scientific rasa arch disdoees that
the ayes receive 17 par can* of all
impressions we receive. Our ears
receive but 7 par cent; our sense
of smell, S.5 par cent; touch,lJ
per cent; taste, 1 per cent.
These five senses form our sole
contact with the world and the
people in R. All that we know
comes to us through our senses.
Though the eyes represent our
most priceless physical asset,
most of us subject our eyes to
needless abuse. That this If so, is
seen in the fact that 22 per cent
of all children in the country have
defective sight At college a je, 42
per cent have impaired vision. At
age forty, the figure jumps to 60
per cent. And after the sixtieth
birthday, only 5 per cent have
unimpaired eyesight.
These statistics are the more ap
palling when we consider that our
own carelessness is largely re
sponsible for these deficiencies.
Yet it may not be so much of care
lessness as a lack of understand
ing as to what causes eyestrain.
Of all the abuses to which we
subject our eyes, poor lighting is
said to be one of the greatest.
Oddly enough, this is also the
easiest cause to prevent.
It is significant perhaps that de
fective eyesight is common
among farm families. This is
thought to be due to the fact that
there are still several million
farm homes to whom the dvan-
tages of electric lighting are not
available. Yet if this is so, R
again reflects a lack of under
standing of the need for good light,
for there are available today,
types of portable lamps that pro
vide daylight brilliance for every
night-time task.
Perhaps the moat popular of
these are the gasoline and kero
sene pressure mantle lamps.
For reading, sewing, and all the
after-dark pursuits which require
prolonged and close use of the
eyas, abundant light is imperative
to those who would protect that
greatest of God-given gifts, the
eyas. And this la more especially
important where there are chil
dren in the family. Children's
