OHIO CONDENSATION LAW.

Washington-At the instance of Ohio
manufacturers, the attorney-general OF
the state has decided to commence a suit
to test the constitutionality of the new

be upheld by the courts, before they
commence to contribute to the state In
surance fund, provided under the law.

The enterprise. [volume] (Harlem, Mont.) 1899-1926, 1912-12-05

training facilities limited the navy has turned
out some of the best men in the boxing world
today.
For example. there are Sailor Burke and Tom
Sharkey, both graduates of the navy prize-fight-
ers and Sammy Robideau, lightweight champion
of the navy, who is considered of the best
lightweights in the country either in out of
the navy.
''The constant change in the personnel of the
men," says Paymaster Bovine, mot only means
constant work on the part of the officers to mold
them into shape, but it also means that Uncle
Sam is just much richer by every man who
leaves the navy after serving his apprenticeship
He has just so many to call on in of
necessity for man never forgets the A B G OF
the war game he learns It, So for this
reason, as we'll as because it contributes to the
health and pleasure of the men, nothing they can
get in the way of training is thrown away on
them.
"And, too, the sailors life is pleasant one.
There is lots of hard work. to be sure, but there
is plenty to eat, clean place to sleep and good
share of recreation. In the matter of athletics,
as we'll as in other ways, the government does
for its sailors than any other country.
Where will you find 1t matter for active educa-
ton and concern 1t is with us? Certainly not in
the British navy.
"The superiority of the American sailors In
athletics has been demonstrated often Our men
satisfied with nothing but the best They
want to be expert in whatever they undertake;
therefore they train systematically and fur
nished with every facility in the way of equip
ment they need. This is provided for from the
canteen profits 1t is arranged that the profits of
the ships stores be disposed of for this pur-
pose. the men lack nothing in the way of
paraphernaia that will conduce to their success
in athletics"
"As illustration Of the aptness of the Amer
lean sailor in athletics officer tells this expo
rience of his when on the China station The
ship was stationed at Hongkong and one day a
group of American sailors tried to induce some
British sailors to join them in a football game
The latter preferred soccer. Finally, however,
the Britishers agreed; they would play football

around the deck
Personally Jack has love of betting. Gambling
amounts to a passion with him and at the Dig
athletic events considerable sum OF money -
ant to change hands. But Jack doesn't conhne
himself to big events, for as one sailor Says ne
bets at the drop of hat.
He carries his propensity for wagering to the
possible destination of the ship whether he
will have salt fresh water in which to wash
his hammock, and thousand and one things be-
side. You see one of Jacks duties is to give his
hammock thorough scrubbng once a fortnight,
and sometimes when the vaporizers that turn salt
water into fresh fail to work he has to use salt
water for the purpose.
Every minute of Jacks day has a correspond
ing occupation for him. and from revellle when
the buge's II can't get 'em up penetrates to
every part of the big battleshp. until taps Is
sounded the sailors life Is busy one. First of
all Jack arises at $500 His first duty is to turn
to and wash down decks and slick up things gen
orally. Mess gear comes at 7:15. which interpret
ed means letting down the tables for breakfast
Then comes pipe down for mess. This is q
long drawn note on the bo's'ns whistle.
Mess lasts half an hour usually and then fol-
lows the call for colors quarters, prayer and
drill and before he knows it Jacks morning is
gone and it is a quarter to twelve, when dinner
time has arrived.
Stand by, scrub and wash Clothes, is the
next order from the bosn, and this comes at ten
minutes past one. This arduous duty over, there
is drill until AGO. when the bo'sn calls "Pipe
down clothes if dry" for meanwhile Jack s
clothes are swinging on the line. Now the
Smoking lamp" is lit and for a while Jack is
lost In contemplation of the delicious weed.
Lighting the smoking lamp is one of the pic
turesque customs that have come down from the
old navy and at this time the men privileged
to enjoy their pipes and cigars. In earlier years

ingly done and the American sal
lors beat the Britishers at their
own game. fr'~
One of the newest amusenfents
provided for the sailors is the
moving picture show, and this
they enjoy hugely. The films are
rented for the most part, though
the navy recently bought a. set
which Mr.. Edison took depicting
the life of the sailor. This is very
popular. How often exhibitions are
given depends on the weather and
where the ship happens to be. II
in port where the men can get
ashore, there is little need OF spe-
cial recreation. But if on cruise
or the weather is bad, then the
!. ...auovies" are given two or three
exhibitions a week. Apropos OF
this feature Capt. H. B. Wilson OF
the North Dakota is considering
plan to introduce the Kinemacolor
pictures soon.
Another innovation which Cap
tain Wilson is also responsible for,
according to Paymaster Bovine, IS
the setting aside of one of the gun
compartments on the ship as a
reading and writing room for the
sailors Though small, 1t is a
great boon to them, for now they
can write comfortably at desk In
stead of on their ditty boxes. More
over, there are provided between
thirty and forty magazines with
two or three copies each of the
daily papers, so the sailors, when
at leisure, can pass the time read
ing if they SO elect.
"The sailors like dancing, adds
Paymaster Bovine and though
they may not always take advan-
tage of the band concerts given
every noon and night, if a popular
air like Great, Big, Beautiful Doll

C. & 0's. Progress in Recent Years

The growth OF the Chesapeak & Ohio
in the past seven or eight years has been
very interesting For great N any years
the company was unable to do itself JUS
tice and make go good a showing as it's
progress entitled it to make, because of
the fact that inadequate financing had
saddled tine property with very heavy
floating debt, which for great many
years was not properly taken care OF ard
which made the net result of each year
show up less favoraby than would have
been in the case had the property been
reasonably well financed. Some four or
five years ago, however, those controlling
the property decided to clean house, 80
to speak. to get the property on sound,
financial basis, and as result of this step
the company has been enabled each year
since to make showing in keeping with
Its earning power.

Now Confronting the
American Voters In
the Greatest C0un-
try on Earth.
THE APPEAL TO VOTERS To
AWAKEN-TO RESPOND.
Latest News will Be Given on a
Canvas By The Progressive.

The general election now about to take
place will snrpaes ell others since the
COS, and perhaps we are confronting the
greatest in the history of the United
States. We see at the present the once
grand old Republican party now rent in
twain, making room and giving opportu-
nifty for new and better things. We see
men wavering IN their once-prejudiced
maids as to what step to take-we see
ardent supporters of Democracy now tax
ing things more serious and just wonder
ing if they are on the right track for pro-
gress, and in line with principles for the
betterment of the grandest government
under the sun. ~
Men are thinking on public affairs to-
day as they never thought before-the
voter is in as much suspense now as the
candidate-the under current OF serious
thought has taken root, and men-high-
minded men-are no longer slaves to any
one political party, nor like sheep follow
ing political leader, except few who
will not heed, who do not know-and OF
course from these nothing is expected but
straight ballot-''the way my father
and grandfather voted" Out OF date to
be sure, but following the old rut that has
been grinding them into closer submits
sion to the powers that be.
Fellow citizens Awake Hear the
cry-the call that summons you to pro-
tect like a king your interests at home, IN
the state and in the nation.
Give meat to your thoughts by diligent
inquiry, search and research. This may
he the last time you will ever be permit
ted to again register your convictions on
a ballot. Do your duty as you thin
best-not as others think-for, dear voter,
you are the sovereign ruler
Then after you have done your whole
duty. come out on the evening OF Nov
5th. at Belington and receive the news
both far and near. Perhaps your vote
will decide some important Issue.
The Progressive will endeavor TO give
news bv bulletins on canvas by flash
light near the Teter Building, on Grim
avenue.
You can't tell which way New York
state will go, and others as well, so it will
be real interesting to get the first news.
If the weather is cold some fires will
be kindled in wood stoves on the streets
so everybody will be made comfortable
Resolve to be real mana real intel
igent voter-a citizen worthy OF the COM
monwealth OF West Virginia and a SOW
ereign of the grand old U. S. A.
