funny. The one at the head of
our division is surely a charac-
ter. He was giving commands
yesterday and noticed a fellow
who had his belt on wrong and
stopped talking all at once and
said, eff that man wants to have
his belt on right, he will have
to stand on his head" He got
it off SO quick and without hard
ly delaying his commands, it
sounded real funny. If a man
turns to the left when he should
turn right-the officer will say,
right and left here is the same
as it is in Virginia or North and
South Carolina"

This is what they call fed day
on board ship. Everything is
cleaned and aired, we are sup
posed to work most of the morn
ing at it, but the civilians are
dismissed from work to attend
all drills so the work is left for
the crew to do.
We did not have to get up last
night for torpedo defense as we
expected-thus SO far the war
has not caused us any great
hardship. l think tomorrow is
the last day of the war, So if
the enemy do not land before
then, they loose. Yesterday the
Pennsylvania passed going at a
fast clip. 1t is the last ship the
u. S. has built and is the larg-
est batt.eship in the world. 1t
is some boats run by oil and
electrical machines for every
thing cooking is done by cleo
tricity, laundry and all. They
carry twelve 14-inch guns and
it can make about % knots an
hour.
Aug. 26, 1916.
Today is inspection of quar-
ters and uniforms, SO we are all
cleaned in our white uniforms.
While waiting for the call to
quarters we can't sit down be-
cause of getting our clothes
soiled. Of course, everything IS
scrubbed clean, but then white
clothes find dirt nevertheless.
Northing has happened yet
regarding the war game. The
last hour or SO the ships have
been running abreast of each
other. | don't know what that
means, though | hear we will &c
into port somewhere tonight for
over Sunday. Monday We Will
be in Tangiers Sound for target
practice. After a few days there
we go to New York for four
days from the 4th on and Their
down to Norfolk to disembark.

AS GOOD AS
A Chew OF
''SPEAR HEAD
That Means the Supreme De-
gree Of Rich, Luscious
Tobacco Flavor
NO OTHER Chew EQUALS IT

Nature varies the flavor she puts into
the different grades of tobacco leaf
and the best of all is the flavor of
choice red Burley that pleases you so
nightly when you chew Spear Head
The delicious fruity flavor of chew
Of Spear Head is a revelation to the
man who has never chewed or who has
been chewing neargood tobacco.
For chewing is the one way to get
all the wholesome, healthful, appetizing
flavor of the tobacco leaf-provding
you chew high-grade Plug like Spear
Head.
No other tobacco can compare with
Spear Head in the wholesome salts fac
ton it gives.
You get more savory sweetness in a
chew of Spear Head than in whole
plug of ordinary tobacco.
And you get it in its purest form
for Spear Head is made amid the most
wholesome surroundings, in a great,
new factory that's kept absolutely clean
and sanitary.
Try this rich, mellow, satisfying, pure
chew. Such chew cannot be obtained
in any other tobacco than Spear Head.
In SC and 10c cuts.

COueTGnL WIFI STleI ana excitement
when the steeplejack arrived.
1t was to be the work Of an hour to
reach the weather vane, on which
Jocko was perched. Ropes had to
be adjusted, There was nothing to
be gained by waiting half way UP,
from which point nothing could be
seen. Mrs. Lane and the crowd de-
scended to the street again. From
a hundred opera glasses, Jocko could
, be seen, seated with his legs about
the vane, his faced turned now east,
now~west, as the wind blew the vane
to which he chung. In his arms, sus-
pended with light precision, was the
baby.
It seemed an eternity before the
steeplejack was seen to be making
his slow ascent upon the ropes, hand
over hand. Arrived half way. be-
tween the vane and the belfry, he
halted and readjusted the ropes,
casting them up before him, and
notting the plank seat on which he
was to sit.
Somebody cried out that the CHM
panZee was becoming. uneasy. Mrs.
Lanes piercing shrieks could be
heard all over the little town. She
fell into mysteries and it required
three men to hold her.
Suddenly Jocko was observed to
chatter excitedly as he saw the head
of the steeplejack advancing toward
him. He lifted the tiny body into his
arms as if to hurl it at the intruder,
and then, changing his mind, he
perched himself north and south and
glared defantly, while he rocked the
baby in his arms.
If he, should let it fall! There was
no man present whom the thought
did not terrify. If he should be bad
gered into hurting it! They shouted
to Banks, who paid not the least at
tention to their cries; it was, doubt
full if he heard them. In fact, he had

Suddenly he was seen to stand
upon his seat and wave his hand to
the crowd below. The ape, startled
by the action, showed it's teeth in a
vicious snarl. The crowd was terri
fed. The mother, still in Mysteries,
did not know what was happening,
fortunately for herself. No one could
hear what the steepleiack was shout
ing, but a surge Of angry dismay
passed through the people below.
Keep quiet" they shouted. "He's
going to brighten the beast into
throwing the baby down. they said
among themselves.
"Shut upp' yelled fifty voices.
But the steeplejack continued to
shout and wave his hand. He was
hauling himself up all the time Now
The was, almost within reach of the
ape, which, cinging to the Yane witha
it's arms, was holding the baby with
it's feet, high out over the village.
And still the steeplejack was yelling
and pointing toward the beast.
cts hnurderw shouted the mayor.
'"The mans got no more sense than
a hog! Can't he see? Cans some ,
body stop him?"
Nobody could stop him. And all
the time the ape was becoming more
and more agitated It was swaying
from its giddy perch, swinging to all
the corners of the compass. One Of ,
the; feet that held the child was
raised threateningly toward Banks,
the other held the little body by the
waist out over the people below.
Hes going to let her fall!"
shrieked the mayor, purple in the
face.

GOOD WISHES
BY FORTUNE FREE.

OMEONE said that the richest
- person was the one who was
~ fullest of good wishes for others
and who received their good
wishes in return. Wishing others we'll
did MIN or her all the good in the
world. and the good wishes in return
were powerful for good. Don't we find
1t 80 ourselves? No one can do with
out them. They are our dearest pos
sessions.
Montague Williams, the celebrated
British barriSter once related the story
Of a rather unIovely old gentleman of
miserly habits and rejoicing in the
nickname amongst the urchinS of the
neighbOrhood of "Old PickboneS." Cen
erOsity was not one of his virtues, and
If he wished any human creatures we'll
he kept it Il secret to himself He was
a man who seemed imperviouS to all
good wiSheS--a solitary old grudger
who cared nothing for the good or the
bad wishes of any human creature.
When he died. however, it turned out
that he had been by no means as thick
in which he bequeathed money to diff
ferent persons, and ten thousand
pounds to some unknown individual
whom he directed his solicitor to dis
cover il possible. That person had
been accustomed to send him yearly
an anonymous post card with just,
BEST wishes at this time to you
The writer gave no clue as to who
he was. Did the old gentleman tear
the cards up or throw them into the
fire? Not bit Of it. He had carefully
preserved theIn-tied them up in =
nice packet. III the writer can be dis
covered" he ordered in his will, II
bequeath him ten Thousand pounds for
his good will
would dearly have liked for the
sender of those post cards to have Yot
that money, but all efforts to find him
proved unavailing.
One cannot help wishing we'll to the
person who wishes others we'll. Good
wishes are the biggest bond on earth.
Isn't it delightful thing to think that
others are thinking OF us?
The well-wisher is thinking OF US.
He also puts his good thought for us
into words: II wish you every good
luck" or something of that kind. 1t
is like grasp Of a hand pressing
ours It blesses both the giver and
the receiver. l don't know which gets
the most out OF it.
There are times when the world
breaks out into mighty shout as it
were, OF good wishes. Christmas time
is the great season. Never had we
more need Of them than at this coming
Christmas time. 1t is an enormous op-
portunity fol the good wisher to make
his power felt.
The Glasgow courier., 1916-12-15

1t is curious and beautiful
thing about this Christmas spirit
that year after year it leads us
to attempt the all but impos-
sibIc. in order to give pleasure
to others; while in the end ev-
eryonc's JOY is the result, not OF
what he has received from 9th
ers, but Of what he has done
for them.

SIMPLICITY FOR UNDERSTAND
lNG.-Why make life so dense and
complicated that we cannot see day
light through it and cannot under
stand its simplicity.
A senator, Bourne, gives this rule:
''NO two people in the world are ex-
aCtly alike; consequently each indi-
viduaI has a different point of view or
flea as to what constitutes his own
particular personal or selfish inter
est"
Is this so? If 1000 persons look at
a red apple, there is but one idea to
ala red apple-at least, that is the
normal majority idea. There are not
1000 differing ideas of this red ap-
pIe-there is unity of agreement.
We need for life a few generally
conceded useful things, such as
drink, food, shelter, activity, rest.
This does not mean that life's ne
Cessities are dependent on 100000
differing ideas from 100000 people.

DON'T KNOCK. - Don't be a
knocker. Honest criticism is always
welcome, but knocking don't pay. It
hurts the knockers as much as the
victim.
Since we all have made mistakes
it would be more appropriate for US
to cultivate the characteristic of
boosting instead of knocking. A good
many Of us throw out our chest and
expect the admiration of our fellow
men when we say we don't believe
in knocking a man when he is down,
but very often we forget that we keep
on kicking a weaker person until we
are sure he is down.
When we think of our own T. r.
we cannot help but think of hyphen-
ated Americans continually knock
ing against a certain class of hy-
phens. He was always hasty in con-
Yicting a man before trial, calling
men undesirable citizens and even
refusing an invitation to dine with a
club because one of its members
was under a cloud. The man under
a cloud was LOTimer.
When thinking of Lorimer we think
Of a booster who gave many a man
a lift, but was turned down cold
when he got in bad. They ignore him
because he was exposed not be-
cause he was dishonest We know it
is next to impossible to be absolutely
be honest and rich or a politician.
w can learn a good lesson from
Bill LOrimer Even though we don't
believe in his politics, we must admit
he had an opportunity to knock, but
did not All the world loves a booster.
