on board government training ships,
to take their first steps as merchant
saIlors-methods born of the war, and
the country's need Of large numbers
Of young American sailors to man Its
commerce fleets.
In short, this chapter is the one for
which the others serve as a lure-for

being "put across" in behalf of mod.

This message is intended for the
home folks Ia a thousand towns that
have sent young men to the sea coast
for service In this new and strange
merchant marine, which has come
upon the screen Of national events as

may see her boy, or the like Of him,

individual tastes and preferences IN
matters Of dress, are more clearly de-

drawn-out period of popularity. It Is
picturesque to start with, and since
the war, the glamor Of the Blue Devil
of France has cast a spell about It.
This particular tam is made Of beige
coiored beaver cloth, mounted on
beAdnAnd OF grosgrain ribbon In the
same color, tucked at intervals A
dat bow Of the same ribbon fastens the
feEded-In-crown to the band. These
hams are made in all the popular col
