Influenza and similar affections Of
the mucous membrane of the throat
and nasal passages are diseases, con-
tagious diseases. which are trans

PEELED from the passages of the head

and even in talking.
These diseases in themselves are

he really is; they cripple his highest

physically. and. therefore, they are
expensive and they are preventable
Upon these basic facts the asser-

right to force upon another person

actly what he does when he coughs
or sneezes in the presence of others
without covering his face-his
mouth and nose with his handker

He has not the moral right, even

In the event of war with Germany,
the Gulf Coast is considered well
protected, for two flotillas of subma-
rines are distributed at strategic
points, supplemented by several de-
stroyers. The cruiser Columbia,
Monitors, Ozark, Bushnell and Nc
Donough and six L-boats, as well as
the destroyer Rowan are here.
Under orders issued last night by
the navy department all vessels are
keeping full steamed, and ready to
depart at q moments notice.
Under these orders many of the
men from the vessels here who came
ashore Saturday afternoon were or
dered to Immediately report to their
ships, and were forced to do so.
Many who were attending the W. o.

following the order.

FOR SERVICES
All Vessels of Navy Could
Be Brought Into Action
at an Hours Notice.
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Washington, Feb. Mobilization
of the u. S. navy has been planned
to the minutest detail. Within an
hour after an order from the pres
ident the American fighting ships
would have their orders and would
be moving to their stations. Hun
dreds of orders have been made out
and signed ready to be turned over to
telegraph and wireless operators.
All these orders fit a general plan
which has been worked out by the
navy experts for use in the war
emergency when it comes. Every
ship has it's station and every off
GER his duties.
One of the first tasks in the mob
iization of the fleet will be to man
every available vessel with its full
complement of men. To do this many
Of the land stations and navy yards
would have TO be drawn upon. In
case of war it would be necessary
also to enlist additional men for the
navy who would be used to put the
reserve fleet into commission. The
principal ships of the fleet-the bat
tleships and cruisers at Guantanamo
off Cuba-are fairly well manned
and could get into action on short
notice. They would, however, have
to get their tenders and lay in sup
plies and ammunition In addition to
the amounts carried in peace time.
The department has already acted to
the extent of sending officers to their
ships and warning them TO be ready
in case they are needed
