training facilities limited the navy has turned
out some of the best in the boxing world
today.
For example, there are Sailor Burke and Tom
Sharkey, both graduates Of the navy prizefight-
ers, and Sammy Robideau, lightweight champion
OF the navy, who is considered one of the best
lightweghts 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 so much richer by every man who
leaves the navy after serving his apprenticeship
He has just many to call on in Of
necessity, for man never forgets the OF
the war game he learns It, So for this
reason, well as because 1t 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 a 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 well as in other ways the government does
more 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
are satisfied with nothing but the best. They
want to be expert in whatever they undertake.;
therefore they train systematically and are fur
nished with every facility in the way of equip
ment they need This Is provided for from the
canteen profits. It is arranged that the profits OF
the ships stores can be disposed of for this pur-
pose, so the lack nothing in the way OF
paraphernalia that will conduce to their success

group Of American sailors tried to induce some

The Wltchea, Tree.


In many rural communities the eld-
er is still called the witches tree"
though no longer deliberately planted
near homes and barns for the express
purpose Of keeping away the witches.
The idea that the elder should not bs
allowed to grow near a well, for fear
the water will be spoiled, Is not ex-
tinct. Anciently other than ignorant
and superstitious persons regarded the
elder askance and Evelyn wrote: ct
do by no means commend the scent OF
1t. which is very noxious to the aif."
Cattle rarely touch the elder, and
the mole appears to be driven away
by the scent. Transfers frequently
place branches on their horses heads
to keep away the flies. Nothing seems
to grow well in the immediate prox-
unity OF elder trees, and when they
have been removed and the roots care

as it is generally built to shelter the
family the year round and provide
comforts month after month and year
after year. Such houses look better
and feel better II the furniture Is not
so very expensive. 1t may be good
and plain. The chairs may be uphol-
stored with cotton-covered cushions;
the floors may be covered with car
pets or rugs designed for wear rather
than looks; and the windows may be-
curtained In a cheap, tasty manner;
but in such homes you will generally
find comfortable, lounges decorated
with soft, inviting sofa pillows, very
often representing many different de-
signs; and there is always an easy
chair for each member Of the family,
and an extra one for stranger, and
the stranger feels at home the minute
he enters the door.
The size of this house on the ground
is 81 feet by 40 feet 6 inches, but the
front projection is quite narrow. The
parlor is In this projection away by
itself, so 1t may be shut off from the
main part of the house; and this Is
another economy which works out in
the saving of fuel in the winter time.
1t is very cheerful room, especially
when there is fire in the CRATE, and
1t is nice cool room in summer.
The dining room, with its three
windows, attracts the family more
than the parlor in such house 1t Is
larger and more central, and feels
more comfortable. When necessary
the dining room may be used in con-
nection with the parlor by leaving the
sliding doors open. In general this
arrangement Of the rooms is good. No
space is taken up with hallway, be-
cause hall in such a house is not
necessary. 1t is an easy house to do
the work In, and 1t contains all the
conveniences necessary for a small
family.
There is need OF just such houses

ingly done and the American SAL
Tors beat the Britishers at their
own game.
One of the newest amusements
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 a cruise
or the weather is bad, then the
movies" are given two or three
exhibitions a week. Apropos OF
this feature Capt. II. 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
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

GRANTS PASS WITHDRAWs.
Fruit Growers Association VIII Be
Formed There.

At meeting of the Rogue River
Fruit Growers Association held in
Medford last Tuesday, Grants Pass
withdrew from the association
through the representatives of the
board of directors, Messrs. Wood and
Gale of this city. These gentlemen
resigned their places on the board
and the vacancies were filled by P.
w. Hamill and DR.. George Dean of
Medford. 1t is the intention of the
fruit growers of Grants Pass to form
local organization, and provided it
can be arranged to work in harmony
joint arrangement may be entered
into, but each district will be sepa-
rated and apart in the way of or
ganization.
The matter of forming an organ
ization of this kind has been under
way for several months, but even
now it has not reached any definite
form. Those most interested are
fruit growers and dealers in fruit,
and from what can be learned it will
not be long before the Grants Pass
association will assume a perma-
nency of organization.-Gr Grants Pass

WILD MAN IMPRISONED.
Has No knowledge of American
Problems and Wants None.

San Francisco.-Andrew Reese,
known as THE Wild Man of Sutro
Forest" brought to the city Jail
Thursday to answer one of the peri
odical protests of society to his care
free existence, protested feebly that
he did not want to be civilized
Struggling with vocal chords rusty
from lack of use, Reese admitted
that he never knew the time of day
or year; that he had never heard OF
the high cost of living; that it was
immaterial to him whether Roose-
welt, of whom he had never heard,
ran for president, whatever that was,
or not; that he had never been mar
ried and knew no more of women
than he did of witches.
Reese has spent Is years, except
a few terms of 10 or 20 days in jail
for vagrancy, in Sutro forest, on the
hills overlooking Golden Gate Park
and the city. He lives in a cave, and
coyotes sing his nightly lullaby. His
trips to Jail are endured patiently
because he receives a much needed
outfit of clothing with each sentence.
How he secures his food is a secret
he has never divulged
