of boy the more influence you have
over him. I've had three grow up tCz

graced me. Discipline is all right but
but when a boy gets to certain age
nothing but love will control him.
You must allow. him certain degree
of liberty, yet, by taking the right
course you can get him to do about
as, you want him to after all. There
is nothing made by trying to drive q
boy. Nine times out of ten he will
rebel and do things he would never
have thought of DOING
These and other words of wisdom
were uttered proudly by this mother

She is not an overly neat housekeep

particularly brilliant nor is she hand

of good fellowship with her that is. sc.
much to be desired between mother
and son. She is never too busy to &c

Entering the Navy,

When a boy wishes to become a
sailor in the navy he applies to one
Of the three receiving" ships. They
are the Vermont at the New York
navy yard, the Wabash at the Boston
yard, and the Richmond at the League
Island navy yard in Philadelphia.
boys must be between fourteen and
sixteen years ago, sound in health,
and be able to read and write to some
extent. No distinction il made in race,
and 1T lis singular fact that the color
ed boys who apply are almost invari-
ably able to read and write better
than the white boys. On board the
Vermont the only reading test applied
is contained on card, which is as
follows:
81 - :. BE it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the Uni
ted States in Congress assembled, that
fraudulent enlistment and the receipt
Of any pay or allowance Hereunder
is hereby declared an offence against
naval discipline, and made punishable
by general court martial
What I have just read to you is a
law Of the United States, and it means
that if you do not tell the truth about
your age, parents, or guardian, or if
you are a deserter from the naval or
military service, you may be tried by
a court martial, be put in prison, or
punished in some way
The last paragraph of this is what
boys are usually required to read. The
officers are not very strict about the
hard words, and so almost any bow
can pass the test. After being admit
ted, Uncle Sam gives each boy an out
fit. His parents or guardian must
sign q paper giving him to the govern
ment until he is twenty-one years of
age. He becomes known at once as
q third-grade apprentice, and in a few
days he is sent to a training school at
Newport, where he is taught rudi-
mentary things about sailors life
and work. After remaining at New
port for six months he is transferred
to one Of two training ships. These
are the Essex and the Alliance. He
remains on one of these FOR six months
md takes a cruise On tile VOYAGE
he learns how TO handle tile sails,
how to sew and splice, and how to

things about sailors life he also
