Fuel for the Navy

Figuratively speaking the United
States navy consumes mountain

No navy in the world has given
the problem of coal supply, coal
capacity and speed in coaling ships
more attention than has that of the
United States.
Coal used by the navy depart
ment for our fleets comes from the
bituminous regions of Virginia,
West Virginia. Maryland and
Pennsylvania. This coal is ship
ped from the mines to the coast,
the principal tidewater ports on
the Atlantic coast being Philadel-
phia, New York and Hampton
Roads, Va. Government colliers
carry the coal from these ports to
the various coaling stations of the
navy in Atlantic, Pacific and Asi-
attic waters.
The chief coaling stations are at
Bradford, in the state of Rhode
Island; San Francisco; Honolulu.
Cavite, P. l., and smaller stocks al
Guantanamo, Samoa and Guam.
The supply at these stations is kept

Our Country

This is the country of our birth,
the fairest land on all the earth.
Here freedom is living thing, no
fake invented by a king. No gall
ing yokes are on our backs, we
groan beneath no unjust tax, the
government is all our own and not
the ukase from a throne. The
great republic of the west! The
haven of the worlds oppressed,
the vital text of all who plan a
worldwide brotherhood Of man.
America! Ten million eyes are gaz.
ing where her banner flies, and
countless hearts forevermore make
plans to reach the freeman's shore.
Besides the Ganges' sullen flow,
and by the winding, storied Pc,
wherever men are tired and worn,
wherever heartsick toilers mourn,
wherever life is sad and gray, the
eyes of thousands turn this way.
And that their eyes may to us
turn, and that our beacons still may
burn, informing all upon this
sphere that freedoms still existing
here, we take once more the sword
and brand to battle for our native
land. For freedom, in the peoples
sight, if we surrendered what is
right, would. be as dark and foul a
thing as though invented by a

for it gives the largest percentage
of 'steaming radius" per given
quantity of coal. The navy must
have clean, dependable coal, for it
means miles and, as far as possible.
preservation of machinery.
Coaling at sea may we'll be called
the nightmare of the navy. Every
man On board, both officers and en-
listed men, breads it. Laborious,
tedious and nasty, it is an unwel-
come duty, to be performed as
quickly as possible and then for
gotten with fervent sighs of relief.
The coal is lifted from the
collier's hold in huge buckets
raised by derricks, which carry
them to the warship's chutes, the
coal being dumped in great piles
on deck, whence it is shovelled by
the men into the chutes. Trim
mers down in the bunkers do their
part in properly distributing it.
The work is heavy, dusty and
dirty, and rolls, hot sausages and
coffee are served to the men every
two hours during coaling. To
further stimulate them the ships
band often plays stirring airs.
When a warship is in port she is
coaled from barges lying alongside,
the coal being lifted by derricks in
huge bags which hold 800 pounds
of coal each. The battleship Ar
kansas can stow 2,754 tons of coal
and the Texas 1900 tons.
The use of fuel oil in the navy is
increasing yearly and will continue
to increase, as the new ships, es-
pecially the new dIeadnaughts,
consume oil, and more oil burners
are planned for the future.
According to the navy depart
ment, there is much to be said in
favor of oil. 1t effects a consider
able reduction in freroom compile
ment. It is more efhclent than
coal in that 200 gallons of oil (two-
thirds of a ton) do the work of one
ton of good coal, and there is
great deal of refuse in coal (ashes,
etc. } with much additional loss due
to fine particles of coal going up
the stacks unconsumed.
The United States navy has two
oil supply ships, the Kanawha and
the Maumee, each Of them capable
of making fourteen knots an hour
and carrying 1854 tons of fuel oil.
Oiling a ship does away with much
of the labor and all of the dirt so
trying in coaling. In port the
problem of pumping the oil from
the huge tank or dock into the
pipes on the side of the vessel is
comparatively a simple one.
Supplying oil to a ship at sea,
however, is not yet satisfactorily
settled. Experiments in fueling
ships at sea with oil form an inn
portant item in naval strategy at
this time. Just what has been &C

er approach you but to cheer, they
never speak to you but to inspire.
Such people will scatter flowers
wherever they 60. They have
that happy social alchemy which
turns prose to poetry, ugliness to
beauty. They see the best in peo-
pie and say pleasant and helpful
things about them.
Let US open up our natures,
throw wide the doors of our hearts
and let in the sunshine of good
will toward man. Let US be at
least as generous in Judging others
as we are in Judging ourselves. As
tolerant of their weaknesses as of
our own. Let US throw away all
animosities. and try to be broad
minded enough to see the God in
the meanest man.
The habit of holding a kindly at
titude of mind toward everybody
has powerful influence upon the
character. It lifts the mind above
petty jealousies and meannesses.
Wherever we meet people, DO mat
ter if they are strangers, we should
feel a certain kinship for them.
We should feel that if we only had
the opportunity of knowing them,
we should like them. In other
words. the kindly habit, the good
will habit, makes US feel more SYM
pathy for everybody. And if we
radiat this helpful, friendly feel
ing, others will reflect it back to
US. Life is short at most and what
a satisfaction it is to feel that we
have scattered flowers instead of
thorns; that we have tried to be
helpful and kind instead of selfish
and churfish. The world builds it's
monuments to the unselfsh and
helpful and if these monuments
are not in marble or bronze, they
are in the hearts of those whom
their inspirers have cheered, en-
couraged and helped.
We were all planned on lines of
nobility, we were intended to be
something grand: not mean and
stingy, but large and generous.
Selfshness and greed dwarf our
natures and make US mere apollo
gies of men God intended us to be.
The way to get back to our own;
to regain our lost birthright, is to
form habit of holding the kindly,
helpful, sympathetic, good-will-at-
titude toward everybody.

HYS8H Theodore Roosevelt, "whe

which many of us push, drive, ell

our mad rush for the dollar, that
there was no tie of humanity bind

Everywhere we can see men in

them because we consider it as

nothing so brutal. so hard-hearted

its nobler instincts, whose nature

ner, a generous spirit. Do not be
stingy with your cordiality, your
praise, your helpfulness. But fling
out the best to everybody, every
time. Learn to say pleasant things
to people, and about them. Do
generous things, and it is surpris-
ing to see how our own life will
enlarge, our soul expand, and our
whole nature become enriched.
The persistent effort to give every
body a lift when possible, to make
everybody we come in contact with
a little more contented, to radiate
sunshine, cheer, hope, good will,
not only brings light and joy to
other hearts, but opens wide the
door to our own happiness.
There is no habit which will give
more satisfaction, that will enrich
us more, than that of doing a good
turn for others at every opportuni-
ty. If we cannot give material
help, we can always help by
cheerful spirit or by cordial words,
sympathy, kindness and encourage
ment. There are more hearts
hungering for kindness and SYM
pathy than for money, and these
we can always give. We all like
the person who filings the door OF
his heart wide open and bids us

HSSggGN either. as most of them
lgWgy were known to the local
fans-cavorting around the dia-
mond in NJ. S. P. uniforms piqued
the curiosity of the khaki-clad
crowd and started the tongues to
buzzing at Recreation Park last
Saturday. And these players didn't
act bit like the Nj. S. P.s usually
do either. One fan said: Il come
pretty near wising up the visitors
as to who these players really
were." The joke would have been
on him if he had, for the Wilcox
Trux knew. When they arrived
they we're apprised of the fact that
they were to meet a team composed
of Interstate League and other
professional players. Their reply
was that they'd have to play all
the harder in that case.'' So ev-
erything was strictly on the level
from the umpire's opening an
nouncement to the close of the
game. The crowd left the park in
positively happy frame of mind,
for they'd had an afternoon of
first-class sport.

are the amateur champions of the

scattered, except in the second
frame, and did not issue a single
pass. The team headed by Capt.
Wines is a dandy and we hope to
see them here again soon.
The Saltwater Stars presented a
stronger lineup than any we have
previously seen here and they cer-
tainly played a beautiful game.
The pitching was divided between
Nelson, Swanman and Kienholz-
each one hurting three innings in
the order named. The hits were
kept down to a total of five. No
less than eleven bases ON balls were
issued, but not one of them figured
in the scoring. Doar caught a
swell game. In fact, the whole
team was full of the ''old pep"
throughout the game and each
player did we'll. The boys have
the thanks of the local fans for so
kindly consenting to come here and
entertain us.
A large crowd of visitors came
to see the game and we venture to
say they were we'll satisfied because
they fingered until the game was
