LIFE SAVING SERVICE.

OPENING OF THE STATIONS ON THE ATLANTIC
CoAsT-THE HERALD SUGGESTIONS ADOPTED
The Atlantic seaboard of the United States has
since the caravels Of Sebastian Cabot venured
across from the old country enjoyed very unen-
viable reputation among mariners. There was
time when vessel arriving on the American coast
considered lucky in getting to her destination in
quiet harbor, instead Of beating herself to
pieces sandbar or rocky shore. The coast from
Cape Hatteras to West Quoddy Head in Maine has
been investigated by . HERALD reporter. and it
shows significant "reminiscences OF the fury of tho
Atlantic asserting its power It's western barrier
few years since the government organized the life
saving service into condition that had the elements
of efficiency.
THE HEROES OF THE SURF.
The larger part OF Atlantic seaboard presents
low, sandy shore. Hence the surfmen mostly to
be depended upon by mariners who get into trou bic
at this side Of the ocean. Suppose vessel, even
coaster at that. gets ashore. Instantly in the
treacherous. yielding sand. and with wild breakers
"combcrs." as they call them on the Long Island
shore-she begins to break up. The term breaking
up" to those who have not been ''down to the sea
in great ships is little understood. 1t is
ship. 1t is huge mass of iron and
Then the life saving service OF the United States
government becomes an angel guardian. and those
brave men who constitute the crews there are few
teeth of storms that banch the cheeks OF the oldest
fisherman and go to the rescue. Those surfmen
risk their lives night and day to gave others, an yet
think nothing OF It.
OPENING THE STATIONS
The Last of the Atlantic stations opened yes
terday. The fall and winter season of the life
ing service has commenced. The psrlance of the
theatrical manager may be used here to some ex-
tent, theatre can exhibit during the season

which these surfmen belong.
