Secretary Daniels aims to bring
sanity and common sense and square
dealing into the navy. He hopes to
rid it of the intrigues, the politics,
and the snobbery which now domin-
ate it. He knows the great majority
of naval officers are splendid types of
the American citizen, but that num-
Der of sinister influences must be
eradicated in the near future.
While Secretary Daniels has been
dealing broadly with certain aspects
of the service, has also has proved
himself good man for detail and an
excellent administrator. He is one of

danger that he will fall victim to

the department officials are learning

Mr.. Daniels is in favor of greater

influence will carry great weight in
building up the prestige of the Unit
ed States at sea.

(By Sidney Espey)

Washington, June 21.-Washingto
roughly divides her bureaucrats AID
departmental officials into two types;
the rubber stamp" sort, and the posi-
tive, creative kind. The capital sees
a great army of newcomers take pos
session of the big places in the gov
eminent with every new administra-
ton, and every year sees some i'm
pOrtant changes in the personnel of
the administrative offices, mainly for
political reasons.
OF course, the Rubber stamp" type
is in the majority. The chief inter-
est that Washington has in the Sc
lection of a cabinet is to ascertain
what proportion of it can be classed
as rubber stamp" The average is
very high, for cabinets are mainly
composed of politicians who believe
their places are decorative ones. They
do not care to become known as ef-
ficient administrators, and could not
if they would.
The capital quickly found out that
Woodrow Wilson had reduced the
rubber stamp" tradition to mini
mum in the selection of his cabinet
Nearly every member of it has posi-
tive personality, with ideas of his
own, and will and backbone to car
ry them out. For three months they
have been knocking traditions and
customs and "red tape" procedure
right and left, shocking and discom-
fitting the old civil service employees
who have been trained to regard their
little rut and their little way OF do
ing things as sacred as the govern
ment itself.

MORE THAN MILLION
CHRISTIAN SCIENTISTS
How Christian Science Has Helped to
Make Healthier America.

There are in the United States in
round numbers a million Christian
Scientists. This means that there are
a million optimists spread over the
country, enjoying good health and
helping others.
A life insurance company recently
announced that persons are living
longer-that 70 years no longer is
life's limit. AS matter of fact, it is
said that if one lives in a right man.
ner he may exist a century. One
million Christian Scientists and 5000
healers are practicing what they
preach among the other millions of
America and even as little leaven
leaventh the whole lump, so have
they inspired the country with the
spirit of Mrs. Eddy.
This woman discovered of a great
truth has been partly, at least, re-
sponsible for the better bodily and
mental health of this country. Doc
tors did not do it; they work on the
bOdy-Christian Science works on the
mental and the moral nature.
There are no pessimists among
Mrs. Eddy's followersAthey preach
and practice the doctrine of hope and
good will. That the country is better
and enjoying health is do much to
education and elevation of thought,
and these Christian Scientists can well
claim their share of credit.-Wash-

swivel chairs in the capital for good
many years.
FIe ordered many of the officers of
assured social standing in Washington
out to sea, and forthwith upwent a
great cry of protest. 1t was Mr.. Dam
iels' idea that the choice berths of the
Navy-the Washington assignments
which are full of good times and lit
tie work-should be as widely distrib-
uted among the officers of the navy as
possible, and should not be confined
to favored few. The idea was so
original and precedent-smashing to
the seasoned old sWivel-chair admir-
ais that it shocked them, and they
have been dolefully talking about the
decadence and the decentralization of
the service ever since it became evil
dent that the new secretary was man
of his own mind and could not be
shaken out of his determination.
Mr.. Daniels also frowned upon res
ignations among the younger men of
the navy. This has been a growing
evil for many years, and it has flour
ished unchecked because of certain
political influences in the service.
Whenever a young officer, who has
been educated at the expense of the
government and taken an oath to
serve his country throughout life, tir-

getting good position in civil life, he

an alarming bump of curiosity and
shocked various bureaucrats by ask

and promptly announced that he

could be offered why they should be
accepted. Is it any wonder the new

The sailing race which got under

a classic in long distance runs for
