The practice OF serving a ration of croc
to sailors and marines was discontinued in
the United States navy many years ago
as the custom was found to be preiudicial
to discipline and morals. Grog is still
served, however, in all the other navies of
the world. The advocates of temperance
in Great Britain have been trying for wears
to the practice, but in vain. The British
bluejackets have way of saving their dai-
y ration of grog for several days, in order
to have a glorious drunk on it: and this
abuse of the custom may lead to its dis
continuance.

listened with apparent interest and under

her words sank into comprehending hearts,
she inquired: "Now, children, what do |

readers of The Phoenix are disappointed
when such mistakes are made. and they
were greatly disappointed last Friday even
ing because the weekly papers were not on
ly due at that time but important war news
was due from Commodore Dewey.
The "Brattlehoro Evening Phoenix is on
sale at the Immersion post-oifce. There
is n brisk call for this paper because it con

form. The reader gets more information

than in reading the city daiies half an hour

newspaper, but it was a monstrous cru
