Any one who stand ou the clifTs at Dover overlooking "the Piccadilly of the Sear' was sutprieed as well as de- lighted tit the rare moments when a vessel cane into view with a suit of white sails instead of one or two fun- nels belching out black or brown smoke. The sailing ship, which for so many gmterations had added a pic- turesque element to the lonely waste:; of waters, was thought to bo dying, and tree indeed dying.

Not much more than 5 per cent, of our shipping on the c, e. of the war kept alive the memories of earlier gener:;tiene of tteamet:, And then cane the great corns trophe, from the effects of which we are still suffering. During the period covered by the. submarine campaign, the sailing -chip, iii hie to be becalmed and thus to fall an easy prey to the enemy, was condemned es an 000- eln•onlem. Even the slower steamers were regarded as an inconvenience, not only because they remained longer in the "danger z: ne," but because they could be overhauled by the swifter types of submarines, and possessing little capacity for quick "zigeeagging," had small chance of escape. Almost everyone was convinced that the thing we should have to a,im at in the future. was speed, and the Admiralty responsible for the safety of shipping, urged that all new ves- sels of the cargo -carrying classes should have higher horse -power. Everything seemed to suggest that the sailing ship wee not only dead, but damned. The poets were too preoccupied to eing of the close of an era in ocean transport full of romance and interest, and to deplore the triumph of the smoke-emiti,ing vessels of the new ago. The prophets and the exponents of economics failed to take any account of the coal miners and other workers, and par tiell larly rise former, who had ideas of their own as to the hours they - should work and the wage width they should bo paid. Peace—or what was described as peace—dawned; the cost of coal soared higher and higher, and - production decreased, Less Coal, but higher Prices. Though only 12,000,000 tons of coal were used by shipping last year, as compared with 21,000,000 in 1010, the charges rose from anything between half a guinea and Os. to as much as 25 EL ton, all even more than that pre- posterous sum was paid in the Port of Landon. That rise was partly artifi- cial, being due to a vagary of the Coal Controller, who decided that shipping should be penalized to the apparent advantage of the domestic and indus- trial consumer. IIe forgot that in the end the consumer has to pay. But that is a side issue. The sub- stantial fact was that it because appar- ent that bunkers could never be cheap so long as the high wages in the coal mining districts continued, and there- fore shipping people, not only in this country, but abroad, began to think in terms of salts once more. Scandinavian ship owners had al- ways remained more faithful to the sailing ship than the ship owners of other countries, and soon their vessels began to visit our ports, having been equipped with motor engines. That de- velopment opened tip fresh possibil- ities of competition with the steamer, for under those conditions a sailor, on losing the wind, could continue her passage by turning round her screw, thus combining the economy of sails with the speed of mechanical power. Sailing Ships Cost Less. Seining ships, which are for the most part constructed of wood, have always been far less costly to build than steel ships with engines, and the dispropor- tion is greeter today than over it was, owing to the freight to Which wages in the engineering, and steel shipbuilding industries have leaped during the last seven years. and thus it has happen, - ad that these two classes of workers, the 'coal miners and the eng'lineerst have given a new tenure of life to the sailing chip, which will resist the buf- fetings of the sea for fifty or more years—twice as long as an ordinary steamer drill last. gay so.
