experiencing my first touch Of sea-
sickness.
About six bells in the morning
(three o'clock) the door opened, and
there standing in the opening was a
huge Swede, encased in oilskins. The
icy blast sent a cold shiver through
me. I wondered what he wanted, but
did not wonder long.
"You bane get tea and toast on

bewildered. The door slammed and
once again I was alone. Fifteen min

opened again and in rushed the
toughest-looking seaman 1 have ever

"One-eyed Gibson" "Blue-Noser'
from Nova Scotia, and man whom 1t
was not safe to trifle with. Without
word he stepped into the glory hole,
grabbed my shoulder in grip OF
steel, and yanked me out of my bunk
into the icy water which was awash
on the deck. This was my first in
PRODUCTION to him.
"Get out o. that, you landlubber.

idly asked, ,"Where are we, sir?" With
look of contempt he answered.

south for the Horn, and she's blowing

l stepped out of my glory hole onto
the deck. We were dipping our SOUP
pers, and huge seas were breaking
over the weather side. One minute
the after deck would appear like a
steep hill in front of me. and nor
rible churning sound would come from
the racing propeller. Then the deck
would slant away from me and a loud
chug, and shiver through the ship
as the propeller sank again into the
water.

as second steward, and I got the bill

that that night, about ten o'clock, !
would go aft on the poop deck with
the pelican's skin down my back, and,
with my face Smeared with black,
would do a mystic dance. He was to
take Monday and hide behind the ven-
tilator, and while I was doing my war
dance, he would explain to Monday
that was in communication with my
father, the great American medicine
man. He did this and it made quite

grunts, beseeched Bill and Monday
to come and receive the token. Mon
day came trembling aft and pointed
to the little black bird which was
weakly gasping it's last, but 1t saved
the day for us. How we honOred and
respected that little bunch of black

day would do, we left him. He sat by
the bird for over an hour, chanting i'm

British West Indies. From that time
on Monday was our slave.
Two days before reaching st. Lucia,
the captain sent for us, and said that
he knew that Bill aud l had slowed
away Monday. We, like couple of
fish, fell for this and admitted it.
whereupOn the captain coolly In
formed us that we had forfeited all
pay and allowances due us for the en-
tire voyage. The joke of 1t was that
under the board of trade laws, the
Cushllo had to go two hundred miles
out of her way to get to st. Lucia and
put Monday Ashore.
We dressed him in a long pair or
white pants; the carpenter gave him
red vest: Bill placed derby hat
on his head and he went ashore In a
small boat. When the boat returned
we lifted anchor, and as st Lucia
again faded into the distance we could
see solitary little figure on the dock
waving his white pants around his
head. He had removed them upon
reaching port. We felt a pang Of re-
gret as he faded out of sight.

WITH THE EDITORS
CARRY ON!

Why throw cold water by disputing those who
predict an almost immediate peace?
The answer to that is given by conversation
overheard in Duluth yesterday, in which one man
said: "Why should | strain myself to buy Lib
erty Bonds when the war will be over before get
the bonds paid for?
That's the menace Of premature hopes, and that
is the fruit of them.
Conditions are good-they never have been bet
ter since the German repulse at the Marine four
years ago. Victory is certain. We shall none OF
Us entertain doubt of it. But the war isn't over
until is fought out and though peace might pos
sibly come sooner through collapse of the Ger
man nation, anybody who figures on even pos
sibility of peace before next fall is inviting bitter
disappointment and helping to bring that disap-
pOintment to pass.
In that connection, an address recently issued
by the American Alliance for Labor and Democ-
racy is timely and pertinent:
Ultimate victory is as certain as the coming
of the dawn, but in the very joy Of present
success there is a danger that is as menac
ing as German arms.
Already, from numherle,s sources, we are
receiving information that the disintegratlng
forces of over-conidence are at work. People
are saying: "What is the use of the draft
law" and what is the use of another Lib
erty Loan? The war will soon be over
Germany could we'll afford to spend millions
to spread that point Of view. In its essence
it is defeatism of the worst sort. 1t Weakens
the will to save to serve to give and, above
all, it weakens the will to fight and the will
to win.
Let no one ask 'When will the war end?"
for it is question that tears at the very heart
of resolution. This war will end when we
win and ot until Ih2G.
And the question each of us should ask is not
'When will the war end?'' but what can do to
| help win the war quickly?'
The word today is sane optimism that never
fails to reckon possible disappointment and de-
lay and that never neglects to guard against al
possible contingencies; that hopes that the wal
will end tomorrow, but keeps willing to fight till i,
ends in victory, if it takes ten years.
