The committee which was composed
of Walter Macarthur and j. w.
Sweeney from the city and Chief Gun
ners Mates G. Austin and j. Buckley,
Chief Quartermaster J. Smallbone and
Chief Woman H. Humphreys from the
Goat island naval training station,
went deep into plans for a series of
dances where Jack can toss overheard
every ounce of bashfulness and enjoy
| himself To quote the naval men again,
/ blue jackets on the dancing floor are
Beau Brummels in their glory, every
| last one of 'em. The problem Of how
to introduce them to the young ladies
of the city brought forth a novel plan.
/ How are we going to have every
I body meet everybody else and not
| leave some one out?" asked Macarthur.
That's easy" said Yeoman Humph-
/ reys You can get around that in
great shape by having introducing
! committees. Just ask the captain of
each ship to send 10 of his best look
ing young sailors ashore the day be-
fore the dance and let EN- meet the
young ladies. You can depend on 1t
that when those committees get back
to their ships there won't be a man
} Jack in the feet who doesn't feel tnat
he knows personally every lady there
: when the music starts up. Don't worry
on that score"
The committee decided not to worry
and adopted the suggestion.
= Members of the California Womans
club will help the committee to make
the dances successful by preparing lists
of the nice young women of San Fran
cisco and asked them to attend the
balls. More than that, the navy men
themselves volunteered that the sail
ors would have a man present from
each ship to turn away every JacKy
not on his best holiday behavior.
"And they will do it, too" said Gun
ner's Mate Buckley grimly. you
might not think so, but at times like
" this the sailorman has notions of con
=, duct about twice as strict as those o
8 most people"
According to the plans outlined, thu
dances will be given to the men o
each of the four fleet divisions sepa
rately and Admiral Evans and the Off
GERS of each ship will be sent invita-
lions to attend. Coffee and lemonad
will be the strongest refreshment
served The committee has not We
\ chosen the halls where the balls vii
be given.
Just before the meeting adjourne
the navy members brought forward
little plan of their own that made a
instant hit. After the city had en-
d tertained the sailors, they said, tn
10 sailors would want to entertain tn
" city. This phase of the situation hadn
a struck Macarthur ond Sweeney before
il but they concurred at once when YeC
= man Humphreys said that every wal
NJ ship had it's own minstrel talent an
"a good talent, too; its ApXers, its oart
,e men, it's swimmers, seball player
A. and amusement makers of all sort

o to which the public would be invited

A good many people get mad when you tell' them they've got dyspepsia, but way down deep in their stomachs they know they've got it.
 "Pd love to eat it, but I can't" is one kind of dyspepsia.
 T hate to think of it, is another kind There are thousands of people today who hate their meals, and love them at the same time. They haven't that fine empty hungry eat-everything-in-sig kind of feeling which goes with avery good strong healthy stomach. That's because they ! have dyspepsia. And then there are others whose mouths don't water at meal time or at any other time. They sit at the table and go through the motions, only because it's time to eat. These peo- pie, too, are dyspeptics.
 Every possible kind of stomach trouble can be cured by taking something which will just take right hold of all the food in your stomach and digest 1t alone with out the help of the stomach, and let the stomach take a rest.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this very thing They are composed of the best di- gestve known to science, and are abso- lutely safe. One ingredient alone of one of these tablets will digest 5000 grains of food! These tablets do exactly the work that good strong healthy stomach does
