NAVY WRITERS MAKE

You remember the old-style. antique.
diamond -fronted type of theatrical press
agent, who could conjure a gorgeous
galaxy of beauty out of hardened old
chorus veterans and a "resplendent
scenic investiture" out of few faded
strips of canvas? You do?
That press agent. over whose neg
lected grave Truth weeps not in mourn
ing, has little or nothing on the United
States Navy of today. When the navy
goes out cunning for recruits. 1t puts a
magnificent imagination and an abso-
luteiy awe-inspiring optimism on the
job. 1t employs literary 'alen. of
unique order
To read Of the life of jolly Jack Tar
aboard a Dreadnaught is to read tale
that fairly makes the blood thrill with
the JOY Of adventure and of glorious,
care-free life that would make Captain
Kidd and Jack silver green with envy
That Is, as the publicity bureau OF the
United States navy recruiting service
paints it,

To the average man the $500 per

never been thought idyllic, ideal, OF
exactly fitted for the young blood crav-
ing adventure. But hearken to this
bIissful word-painting from the navy
circulars which are being spread broad
cast over the country in the EFFORT to
stimulate enlistments:
Would you enjoy meeting the men
who drive our great Dreadnoughts
through the seven seas; men who can
shoot with a ninety-ton gun as &C
curately as you would with a twenty
two caliber rifle, probably more so;
men who put an S0O-pound shot through
moving target miles away?
Would you like to talk to men who
from long travel and experience are
really citizens of the whole world; men
and Panama. as you talk Of the suburbs
of your own town?
More Things To See.
Would you like to associate with
spirited. athletic young men who love
open-air life. football, boxing and other
sports? Men who love the salt tang OF
the sea, whose days are filled with new
sights and new experiences, who have
travelled and know foreign countries,
other climes?
Men who are like this and do things
like this are navy men. You would like
to talk with these men and know them
well, wouldn't you? Why? Because
their life has been an interesting one
their experience has made them inter-
esting. How much finer II is to be one

One investigator declared that he

two minutes It boiled up violently as
from subterranean spring. Through.

exactly the appearance Of extensive

These and similar phenomena are
frequently Observed In this part Of

she has experienced violent shock
similar. to that which is felt when a
rock is struck. Sometimes a great
rumbling is heard, like that of heavy
chain running through the hawse
pipes, and the vessel quiyers like a
leaf in the wind. At another time. in.
smooth water. a vessel has been
known to heel over suddenly. as If she
had run on a sand bank.
Before this part of the ocean was as
thoroughly sounded and surveyed as it
is now these phenomena were attrib-

A FIRE HOUSE ROMANCE.
The Old Horse Did HE Part, but the
Old Chief Weakened.

H
Not long ago a fire. horse was brought
in from the farm, horse thirty-six
years old. that had not had harness
on his back for eleven years. This
horse used to pull the chiefs wagon.
He had the faculty Of getting under
the shafts quicker than ever any horse
did that stood on four feet. He never
made a mistake, never a false move.
BY the time the driver was in the wag-
on the horse was ready to go. and
when he went he went on the high
speed So behold the old horse brought
in from the country witnessing again
the frllls and friyols Of the city.
The horse was harefo looted. his name,
tail and fetlocks grown. out long and
shaggy. The FIRE laddies. went to work
cleaning him up with loving caress.
The old redswagon of the chief was
brought out, The shafts were lifted in
the air with the harness hanging. The
horse was standing, loose, 200 feet
away.
At a signal the gong was sounded,
and like a fash Of light the old veteran
leaped for the shafts. A fireman snap

FIRE chief watched the whole perform

Altho there are evidence that ply

the persians, Egyptians and other
Oriental nations, yet we must sCudy
the old coins, manuscripts and frag

tan Museum, or look at the painted
vases and prizes in private collec-

attached to physical training in past
ages.
Altho men at that time. relying
upon ths strength Of their limbs, and
b ardihood Of their bodies for the de-
fence of their homes. their property,
their lives and their country, were
naturally led into the paths Of physi-

and Greeks that we must look for a
prominent and public acknowledge

1t is said of the Spartan mother
that she left her child upon the
bleak mountain top to see if il
would endure the rude winds and
biting frost before it could be- con

of constitution that went to make
up Spartan warrior. The Athenian
child was inseparable from its mother

ing of mind and body.
That this was a proper course of
education is testified by the brilliant
array of intellectual as well as physi-
cal athletes that the period has handed
down for our modern edification and
benefit. Statues were erected of
Venus, Apollo and Hercules, embodi-
ments Of beauty, grace and strength.
Annual athletic gatherings took place,
as minor preparations for the grea
Olympian festival, which once in
FIVE years took place upon the banks
of Alpheus. Here all Greece repair
ed, and athletes from many shores
made long and arduous journeys to
test their strength, their speed or
skill on this glorious occasion, which
gave them the opportunity of so prom
inently distinguishing themselves.

alone the laurel wreath, but civic hon
ors awaited him, escorted by his
couutrymen, psalms were recited and
chanted in his praise, a state COM
memorative of his fame erected and
