Admiral John G. Walker, president of the
dreary whiskers which give him familiar
nickname in the navy. One day young ensign
entered his office and in cheerful tone ad-
dressed the colored messenger: Hello Bones
where's old Whiskers ~ Before the conversation
could proceed any further the admiral stepped
out from behind the screen drying his hands upon
the towel. and remarked quietly to the young
officer: Take seat; I'll be with you in one
moment. AS. the floor did not open to swallow
him up, the ensign sank into the nearest chair
with heavy and remorseful heart He had
come to ask favor Of the man who assigned all
officers to duty and had power to send him to
either pleasant or a painful berth as he
pleased. When the admiral reappeared and took
his seat at the desk. the young officer. with
shaking limbs and flushed face. began to explain
that he did not intend to be impertinent For
you must know, ADMIRAL he stammered .sthat
the boys often call you old Whiskers' hope
you don't mind it. "Oh, no. answered the
admiral II don't mind it. but If it's just the
same to Won I'd rather youd call me John
