"The standard ship now being built in British shipyards to make good the loss of tonnage due to submarine warfare, is of about 8,000 tons, and all the ships already laid down are of identical pattern.
Eight thousand tons seems to have been hit upon as a middle size between 6,000 and 10,000 tons."—Pearson's Weekly.
A very good hit too.
From an Indian cinema advertisement:—
"'The Marble Heart' from 'King Baggot': A splendid drama dealing with the loves of a young sculptor whose daydreams partake of an astral separation from his own self, and carry him to the scenes of the times in which his 3 statues were living persons. We are introduced to old Greece, and meet Diagones; Georges; Philideas and live over again the old times."—Civil and Military Gazette (Lahore).
But with a lot of nice new friends.
