No longer will the company COOKS

Washington, Oct. 30-After years
of persistent though quiet effort, a
new meaning has been impaired to
the phrase the American Navy"
The navy of Uncle Sam is today
more truly American than ever be-
fore, In that 1t is now manned al
most exclusively by citizens of the
United States, whereas only a decade
was usually an unnaturalized Euro
pean.
A rule is now in force in the navy
f~orbidding the enlistment OF any but
American citizens. Naturalized citi-
zens of foreign birth are accepted,
but men born in the United States
are much preferred. Foreigners
who were in the navy before the
rule was promulgated are accepted
for reenlistment, but these men are
rapidly disappearing from the war
ships.
At present more than 95 per cent.
of the $1,000 sailoros who. make up
the American naval personnel are
Americans. In former years the
majority of foreigners used to be al
most as great. What Is more, the
average American bluejacket today
is from an inland state. The navy
is gathering its men from the farm
and the factory, instead Of picking
up the of humanity which loaf
ed along the wharves, unable to
make a living on land. In the old
days, of course, real seafaring men
were required to man the warships.

things away except for dark clad &C.

of hot water to which little am

prised at the dirt that will roll out
A good brushing with soap and a

ing process. The bag should now be
rinsed in clear hot water and rubbed
