EINHE Navy mule is an animal that
for most persons does not exist.
and this particular mule came
mighty close to losing its existence,
for the reports were against him.
came from Missouri. That is a COM
bination you cannot kill. Mike is not
exactly a perfect specimen, for this
Is the way the board that condemned
him to death described him: He is
badly crippled. His legs are becom-
ing stifr and he has difficulty in using
them sometimes, in a mule, a good
quality; the muscles of his feet are
contracting so that he is walking
on his toes sometimes it is\a good
thing for persons to be on their toes)
and he staggers a good deal when he
first gets up from the ground. His
hips are affected and sometimes he
suffers pain"
The subject of this report had spent
nearly eighteen years of his life in
the government service. and under
the regulations he might have been
c1hdemned and sold. The first report
Ibat selling price of S25 on poor old
Mike with the crippled feet, but this
4 oard, more merciful, reported that
e should be shot, and that was the
recommendation to the chief of the
department that controlled the des-
tinies of a poor old mule without
3friend at court.
But in the Navy time is found to
look into the case of even a sick mule,
for this is the formal and final dis
position of the case:
1.-The bureau feels that in this in
stance it must give recognition to the
long and faithful service of this now
decrepit animal, and it directs that
Mike be relieved from all active duty.
be pastured, provided with all crea-
ture comforts and be maintained until
such time as death shall intervene"
Behind the story of the mule Mike,
as another story, that of body Of
/ officers who are sacrificing everything
NG their world for their country and
sSr their Navy, but they can find time
fGr an act of thoughtfulness for q
par old mule. And the form it takes
shows a state of unruff1ed mind that
is capable of guiding the destinies
of TIC Navy and is a warning to any
trifasi,

NAVAL ordnance, although well
AN equipped at the beginning Of the
was. has been forced to it's best to
keep ahead of the calls made upon it
for guns and ordnance material for
the huge feet of war vessels and
growing numbers of merchant ships.
-maintain its lead it has employed
all the naval gun making resources
and all the civilian plants that it
could induce to take up this work for
the department.
The Poole Engineering Company of
Baltimore. which has been engaged in
making guns for the Navy, last week
held formal flag raising at the OPEN
ing Of their great gunshop extensions.
OF course the capacity of the addi-
tions cannot be told, but 1t IS the re-
verse of Insignificant. Real Admiral
Earle, chief of naval ordnance: his
senior aid. Capt. A. t. Kearney. U. S.
N, and the gun and mount officers of
the bureau went over to Baltimore for
the exercises and to see the beginning
of gurfmakipg in the new shops. Rear
Admiral Earle and Capt. Kearney made
short addresses. and the latter partic-
ularly talked straight from the shoul-
der to the workmen concerning their
duty to keep the work going continu-
ously at ffll blast. The words went
home, and 1.-THE enthusiasm of the men
at the idea of their responsibility to
the fighting men showed that it would
be dangerous for any one to propose
strikes in that shop
AS at present planned, nothing but
strikes can stop the Navy in the race
to keep gun production ahead of ship
building, and 1t must keep ahead If
the production of ships is to have the
desired result.

forming their natural functions, away
goes Indigestion and stomach troubles.
