A NAVAL CRITIC.

The presidential year always pro
duces critics. and this year Annapolis
and the Naval Academy have q few
1t does seem that mems brains are be-
fuddled and bemuddled at every presi-
Dental election and one expects at such
a time erratic people to pop up oc.
casionaIly with erratic notions.
The latest in town is a naval officer
who has stopped bis subscription to
this paper because Of its patent medi.
cine" ads. and the editorial on
'Schrank Was Crazy"
AS we have said again and again.
stopping your subscription TO this pa
per is about the same thing as putting
your finger in a pail of water. and pull
ling il out to find the hole. The paper
will go on just the same and the
subscription will not be missed. The
officer in question, however, will miss
great deal of local. news that some
Of his friends who DO take the paper
will have to tell him.
Again, patent medicine ads. pay. and
pay well. We could not meet our ex-
penses II we did not take foreign
ads. as the merchants in town do not
paIronize this paper to any great ex
tent. You cannot find an ad. of any
local lumber firm. drug firm, the lead
ing grocery and meat store. the lead
ing candy store, or jewelry store
and the only department store does
not advertise. Advertisements are
the life Of paper, they keep
it going. 1t is not the cost. q
penny for the paper that pays its ex-
penses. 1t is the advertisements.
Annapolis merchants who do not ad
vertise belong to the days and time
whep Annapolis was the Athens OF
America, not today. Mr.. Naval Off
Ger, and we have to take foreign ads
to keep Us going.
| Again, the editorial on "Schrani
| Was Crazy" may have been bad
taste" from the Naval Officers view
point but there are others who have q
different view point. 1t is very nice t.
criticise. but just try to write editorials
every day TO please everybody aud
well even anybody so high and mighty
as a naval officer could not do such {
thing. judiciously.

Any Kind of Oil
May Be Utilized.

Various kinds of oil may be en-
ployed Fish oil appears to be a
favoiite with many; others prefer
lard oil or some kind of vegetable
oil, stnl others cylinder oil or min
eral oils In fact any kind of oil
is effective. although not all are
equally So The general method of
application is to put the oil in
loosely woven bags, such as gunny
sacks or specially prepared canvas
bags. together with oakum. and
then to pierce the sacks with holes
through which, the oil may slowly
escape When at anochor the bags
may be bent to the cable ahead Of
the boat. From a ship running be-
fore gale the oil may be dropped
from the quarters. The bags may
also be suspended over the bow or
along the quarters. or fastened 10
the forward catheads. or allowed 10
drip through the forward water
closets
Whatever the manner Of applica-
ton. the chief essential is that the
OIL shah as far as possible, be made

the highest position of authority,
either in this country or any other,
seeking to crush his antagonist and
to deliver to him his death blow, is
a situation both distressing and

: SMOOTHING THE SEA :
by Use Oil Waves
Bv GARRETT P. SERVISS
Bv r. Z. POWERS.
Copyright. 1912, by International News Service

called to the attention of naViga-
tors by observa ton of the slick"
which forms In the wake of
whale 1t may also have been sug-
gested by the effect of oil accident
ally spread upon the surface Of
wind driven water At any rate. it
was known as long ago as the time
of the early Phoenician navigators,
and vet it is only in modern times
that its use has become general.
Even now there are seamen who ex-
press little confidence in ii prob
ably because in their experience 1t
had been improperly applied, or be-
cause in great storms it has not
proved effective When ship is
driving through a heavy sea the APP
plication of the oil must be con-
tinuous in order to afford any pro-
lection. Means must be found. If
practicable to make the oil spread
to windward in order thai the
crests of the waves may be smooth
ed at the moment when they rush
upon the ship
Undoubtedly the effect of the oil
is more pronounced in the case of a
small boat than in that of a large
vessel The impact of the waves
against the bow or side Of the latter
is sufficient to cause them to break
loser and rightly Judging the prop
boat offers less resistance, and If
the surface of the waves is suffi-
GENTLY smoothed to prevent the
wind from combing them the boat
rides triumphantly over the stormy
water. Still. there are many cases
on record where large vessels, in the
opinion of the nayigators, have been
saved from damage. il not from de-
struction. by the free use Of oil.
The effect has sometimes been de-
scribed as almost miraculous. and
there is. ] believe, a rule prescribed
by the conditions of marine insur
ance requiring the use of oil at sea.
and this rule insures the use Of oil
even by sea captains who, person
ally. have BUT little faith in IT, One
Of them IS quoted as saying y
use oil according to prescribed
rules. because I have valuable lives
and cargo in charge. Suppose nv

vestigation disclosed that ] didn't

use oil? I'd be censured. probably
lose my certificate, and have
deuce of wait before getting an
other command"
But this same old salt who ap-
parently personally prefers to fight
it out with old Neptune with bare
fists, makes this statement, con-
tanning significant confession.
One big sea generally does the
damage in hurricanes. sea as big
as mountain, that may not have
another anywhere as large in "a
hours. Oil might smooth that par
ticular sea enough to enable a boat
to live. provided that you hadn't
wasted all your'oil before it hap
pened along"
In other words it is a question
either of having enough oil to out
last a storm or of outstanding the
store and rightly judging the prop
er moment to use it,
