Matter Of Clothing.
In the matter of clothing war has
| brought the navy even greater activ-
ity. This winter for the first time in
many years Uncle Sans Jack tars re-
quire heavy winter clothing. For in
the peaceful winters since the Spanish
war most OF DUR warships have spent
the cold months In the West Indies,
where chiefly the lighter summer
clothing was adequate and the amount
Of heavy winter clothing required very
| small.
Take the old navy Of $1,000 men,
Increase 1t in a few months to more
than 100000, and send 1t into the chill,
| damp climate of the submarine zone
| Off the British isles, from latitude 20
straight up to latitude GO, and anyone
can see that a whole new scheme OF
| clothing Is required.
Just the other day the navy was
| compelled to Issue q statement on this
point to discredit rumOrs that its men
in northern waters were inadequately
| clad and that thousands OF patriotic
women would have to knit sweaters,
| socks, mittens. and other heavy wooden
| garments for them. Nothing to 1t
Admiral MCGOWAN started knitting
sweaters early last spring, when the
! first division Of destroyers was sent to
European waters, and rs a clothier and
| furnisher for the navy he has been
able to set n pnce which left volunteer
| Rnitters far behind months ago. The
naiy's new scheme Of winter clothing
IS on q scale Of magnitude. variety,
md fitness far beyond anything that
could be attained through volunteeg
