The old-timer drew a slice of ships

himself to q liberal portion. began:
This all happened before you rub
Der boots ever knew what navy was.
1t was in the old sailing days, when
we had wooden ships and iron men.
/ was on little clipper-built ship and
we were cruising around in the Pa
cific. We had been out of Frisco
about 40 days and we're hoping that
there'd be sufficient breeze to bring
us into some port within the next few
days.
I'VE didn't have a big crew, and
because we had been so long out OF
civilization some of our young officers
grew boards and mustaches and we
sure were a fine looking crew. This
old packet was at home, though, and
we got along fine As said before
we were just moseying along, just
making steerageway some days, and
the old man began to get impatient.
I'D sure like to see blow, ne said
to the First Luff one day. I'm getting
tired of just creeping along.
81 was at the wheel then and over
heard them. Yes, I'd like to get IN,
too, says the First Luff. There's
pretty little lady at Hongkong who
makes delicious tea, and | would like
some real tea.
Wind Began to Ereshen.
"They had hardly finished this talk
when it began to freshen up bit and
Il
the old man started to swear ioyfnlE
to himself. Just what we want, he
said, and he sent few men aloft TO
spread some more sail. We started
scudding along at lively pace, AMI
in q short time we had all sails spread
and sure were making knots. This
kept up for about six hours and all
the time the wind was getting fresher.
About eight bells the old man came
up to the topside, took look around
and called out to the First Luff to
shorten sail. I'm afraid we're going
to have little blow he says, and I'd
rather have things ready for 1t when
it comes
"In a fifty we had our sails reefed,
for we were sailormen those days and
everything was put snug and ship
shape for any blow that would come
along. In short while there was q
regular gale on, and all the watch was

taking green seas all the time. You
know that winds travel In circles.

.'The orders that the old man had
given when it started to blow came
along and we sure didn't know what
to do when we heard them. However,
the old man had the First Luff Delay
all the orders as fast as they came
along, and pretty soon VIC had things
to rights once more. The sails cane
back and louk their regular PAGES on
the masts and we reefed them as last
as they came back. -.
Only one thing happened to trou-
BILE us, and because OF. this you rarely
ever see an officer in the navy who
is not clean shayen. This is the real
reason. We had one red-headed en-
sign on the ship and his whiskers
blew on to the face of a real dark
officer whose whiskers attached them
selves to the red-headed chap. As
soon as they saw US an laughing at
them they rushed down to their state
rooms and soon had their faces clean
