FORGET SPRING FEVER
Are you slowing up because the
day is warmer and 'you have "Spring
fever"? Are you proving to your em1
ployers that ythu are like time major-
iitY of persons Working fore'thern• so
g,.overried. 'by personal comfort or 'dis-
comfort that you cannot giV`e an
honest 'day's' labor' unless you 'feel
lige it? Sure you are uncomfortable,
,hilt why complabi:about it. As every
spring has just the same effect on
everybody, why comment 0n it and
exaggerate the ennui that,:everyone
feels? Get .more interested in your
work and then you will forget your-
self. It can be done, and you can do
it if your will: If; you could shut up
shop and "go -a. -fishing" you would
not complain. Why? • Because you
would be' vitally interested in that
sport. The reason you let yourself
voice sb ' much discomfiture is be-.
cause you *are not really thinkingof
what you are doing or of what you
should do next. Fretting, about con-
ditions •does not change them. Why
make yourself unhappy?'..., There are
plenty of tin/avoidable reasons for an-
noyance -without allowing:the weath-
er .or. the, season to upset your sys-
tem.

;191 as far as human knowledge
goes, yet ever changing, ever new,
There are still some among us", grey
haired men they are, who remember
the clipper ships which years ago
forced the galleon from the sea, and
• the great four -masted barques that
• are now seen only in island trade on
• southern seas, but these men ate
•the privileged few. Except for a
few schooners which ply the fishing
banks, the sailing vessels have gone
'the way of all things, and in their
place we see the steam driven ves-
sels, gigantic, palatial, and so dif-
ferent in almost alltheir aspects
from the wind propelled Vessels as
to almost belie their origin, There
came coal. Coal revolutionized the
shipping inchistry. As the marine
engine was improved upon and de-
veloped, this eonnnodity became
• more and More in •demand until it
,became a necessity. Larger ships
were designed and operated than
ever before; they beeame more spa-
cious, commodious and faster than
ever befere. Cabins were improved
upon, the sleeping bunks could be so
arranged as to ensure privacy for
the occupant; the state room was

And so the shipping world goes
on. Oil is now doming into its own,
The navies of the world are con-
verting their older war ships into
. oil burning vessels and designing'
many of the additions to fleets for
the u8o of oil; and fox' some years
• past, the steamship companies of all
nations have been turning thoir at-
tention to oil as well as to coal sup.

the Company is that of the EinpresS

some time held the record for the
lastest voyage between the St. Law-
rence, and Great, 13ritain, and it is
anticipated that the time made on
the record trip will be beaten by
the Ximpress after her recondition.
Another important change is the
replacement of all sleeping bunks on
the ship by regular bedsteads and
mattresses aisd the conversion of the
cabins into rooms similar to those
