A nervous girl was chatting to feer vicar about fishing, on which he was keen. "Did you manage to get any f is.hing while you were way?" Inquired the vicar. "Oh, yes," replied the girl, "quite a lot mostly perch and hub, though they're not partic- ularly nice to eat. Which do you prefer, vicar," he added, "eherch r pub?" Tlr school mailer was ex- plaining vulgar fractions. "If I take m potato, cut it in half, then in quarters, and then in halves Again, what shall I have?" he asked. "Chips, sir," was the Im- mediate response. It was the first day of a new term, and the teacher asked * n/all girl in her class a new pupil - what her father's name was. "Daddy," replied the child. "Yes, I know," said the teacher. "But what does your mother call him?' "She doesn't call him any- thing," was the quick reply. "She HktB hirr." Betty: "Did you hear about the fellow who stayed up all night figuring out where the an went when it went down?" Oliver: "No, what hap- pened?" Betty: "It finally dawned on him."

WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING WIRE WRAPPINGS The big naval rifles such as are used on battleships may be wound with wire. The purpose of such winding is to strengthen the gun's resistance to the tremen- dous pressure exerted by the charge that propels the projec- tile. In Great Britain, where wind- ing guns with wire is a general practice, the wire used is one- fourth inch wide and .06 inch thick and has a breaking strength of over 100 tons per square inch. This ribbon-like flattened wire is applied in a continuous band, layer on layer, with increasing tension in each layer. In some types of gun the wire wrapping extends all the way from' the breech to the .nuzzle. In other types only the breech the part subjected to the first shock of the propelling charge is wrap- ped with wire. * The number of layers of wire (in the case of a 15-inch gun) varies from 20 turns at the muz- zlo to 79 turns at the breech. In the making of E single gun the use of some 22 tons of wire is involved, and the total length of the wirt is In the neighborhood of 186 miles. The blanket of wire is usually applied outside the tube or lining and the first layer of shunk-on metal hoops. These hoop**are of such size as to be barely large enough to fit snugly when red hot. On cooling and shrinking they exert a strong pressure on the tube. A casing is shrunk on over the wire after the winding ! completed. * It ha* been estimated that the wire wrappings provide more than double the strength of the steel in the hoops of an ordinary built-up gun. However, wire wound guns tend to lack longi- tudinal strength and rigidity. As result of this lack the gun muz- zle may droop and "whip" when the gun is fired, somewhat de- creasing the accuracy of the weapon. Other types of big guns in- clude built-up guns consisting of two or more concentric cylinders hrunk one on the other, and cold-worked guns, made up from a single cylinder with a bore slightly less than ' the desired, calibre. The bore is enlarged to the correct size by enormous in- terior hydraulic pressure, with the result that the inner layers of the metal are put under com- pression by the contracting fo\cf of the outer* layers just as though a jacket had been shrunk on.
