- And fired the shot that echoed round the world
Has come to pass the epoch Of their dream
When to the April breeze their flag mfm1ed
TODAY, where floats the Stars and Stripes we deem
Each star defiance at the tyrant hurled;
Each stripe bar 'gainst despots, too, would seem
To inerpose for human rights impenled.
TODAY, in foreign lands, the flag is flung
Against crimson sky across the sea,
Where battles bane from out the land has wrung
Its dreadful toll Il promises to free
Each nation, and to number each among
All peoples in worldwide liberty

naires and to speed up the examina-
ton and classification of registrants
reports of progress have been asked
IN the form of charts.
Registrants of September who en-
ter the Student Army Training Corps

where individual induction has been
arranged for.
Government appeal agents have
been called upon to devote as much
time as possible to their duties dur
ing October and to famlliarize them
selves with the registration and be
/ prepared TO advise local boards. Re-
ports have been asked from all local

Ship Board Solves
Officer "Problem'

Washington. - The problem OF
finding American officers for the
vast new merchant marine of the
country mas been solved, the United
States Shipping Board states. The
number of Americans skilled in sea-
going and competent to serve as
deck officers or having mechanical
knowledge fitting them to become
,,1.rine engineers who have come
forward IN response to the board 5
caI1s for officers. has aStonished the
most sanCuine prophet in the Snip
ming Boards recruiting service.
In anticipation of the demands for
officers for the new merchant fleet
his service began training officers IN
Iune 1917, at navigation and engi-
npering schools established for the
nurnose. The goal of the service
was then to secure 10000 students
for these schools in eighteen months.
This total was passed early in Sep
tennber, and this week the total
reached 1000. The present attend
ance at the schools is l'6bZ students.
1'be engineering schools lead with
S65 and the navigation schools are
coming strong with 1877. There are
thirtv-two OF the schools
ADnIication for attendance at
these schools have come from all
sections of the country, from Alaska,
The Far East, Hawaii and the Canal
zone. Those from the latter place
have been equal to the attendance
nj some of the schools. A majority
of the applicants, and all the stu-
dents accepted, are American citi-
zens. .,. r.
the great emergency fleet simplicity
of living quarters is imposed by war
conditions; yet these quarters would
appear palatial to the early Ameri-
can sailing-ship sailor.
ON a 5,000-ton freighter-this
being a moderate-sized vessel as
freighters go-the captain has a
suite of his own on the lower bridge,
reached from below by gangway
from the bridge deck. His bedroom
has a liberal built-in bunk with chest
of drawers beneath or in some ships
a brass bed Off this is a bathroom
with porcelain tub. and toilet.
The captain also has an office.
with table, arm chairs and roll-top
desk. where he conducts the ships
business and receives visitors. These
ouarters are steam heated against
UiterS cOlu anu ndNe SCTeeHS anu
fans if the ship is running in south
ern waters.
The first mate shares the meain
deckhouse with the captain, having
room directly under the bridge.
This is often twelve feet square, with
white iron or brass bed, built-in
couch with drawers under it and
ample clothes lockers and shelf
space. The mate usually also has n
nrivate bath. The second and third
mates and each of the engineers have
a good sized stateroom with a COM
mon bathroom for each rating.
In the main deckhouse is the din
ing saloon or messroom. Here the
officers, from eight to ten in num-
Der, have their meals. On the new
ships this is bright and cheerful
room. finished in oak or some other
hard wood vanished. having side
board and leather upholstered chairs
and lockers. ~
