OF Taeks, the fighting bulldog of the
cruiser West Virginia, it has often been
Lsaid that he is SO ugly that he is good
looking. Certain it is that his face is
Scared from many battle, and his
legs are as bowed as are those of any
thoroughbred bulldog. Tacks had an
experience the other day, though, that
will probably last him until he hits
the long trail for dog heaven.
1t was ont at Waikiki beach, where,
for the first time, Tacks was taking an
afternoon swim in Hawaiian waters.
A couple of sailors from the West
Virginia had the dog in charge and
| they finally got him to follow them out
to the raft which is anchored Just off
the Moana Hotel. The sailor boys had
an ordinary cane with them which they
would throw out in the water from the
raft and which Taeks would promptly
retrieve. And the only way that the
sailors could get the dog to unfasten
| his jaws from the cane was to say the
magic words government propertyi''
Immediately on hearing this, Tacks
would drop the cane, but would not
allow it to be picked up by any one
until ordered to do so by one of the
sailors
! A number of people had swum out to
| the raft to watch the tricks and antics
of the big bulldog, and they were treat
ed to a sight such as is not seen every
day. For suddenly two flying fish,
rarely seen inside the reef, leaped from
the water, and, skimming just above
the surface, landed slap-bang on the
raft directly in front of Tacks.
Now Tacks hadn t received any or
ders from headquarters about the mat
ter, but he knew exactly what to do.
/ One of those flying fish didn't have so
much as one opportunity to flop on the
/ raft before Taeks' powerful jaws closed
! over his body. It was goodbye to Mr..
Flying Fish right then and there. The
second one was more lucky, one wiggle
and slide carrying him off the raft
into the water.
just at the moment Tacks' Jaws
erunehed the life out of the finnv FLYER
one of the sailors turned his head, and
Just getting glimpse, thought that the
dog had hold of the arm of one of the
bathers. He shouted government
property at the top of his voice, and

'Well," explained Charlie. ''when I

are you giving all this away if you
were working for Heinzman?"
"I'm workin' for you now" replied
Charlie with dignity. And. BESIDES
you helped me out once yourself"
"1f that crews been sent in there it
means only one thing at that end of
the line" said Orde.
Sure. They're sent up to waste out
the water in the reservoir and hang

What would you do?" asked Orde.

can't spare the men from the work.
