The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-10-26

Morning, early dawn. and first
call. You can clearly see there is
one sailor footing his bugle which
makes everybody mad. The sail
or in his cradle is not Baby Blunt
ing. He really is our Seaman Si-f
las Simple. They just string them
up to the'ceiling that way to make
them used to staying where they
are and not falling overheard.
After falling out OF bed five or six
times, they either have their heads
put out Of commission, or else they
prove that they are bony enough
to endure the navy. Good idea,
I'd call it.
Silas Simple was about to throw
his shoe at the disturbing noise,
but finding that his shoes are dang
ling from the wrong end of the
hammock. he is about to use his
foot instead. We can imagine that
the bugle is not exactly in tune.
Seaman Simple is said to feel
very strongly about that bugle call.
He has emphatically stated that
when the war Is over he is going
to hire the bugler to come below
his window and toot the same as
always. After the footing goes on
for some time, he will say. go find
the KAISER" and then turn over to
sleep for another hour. Our hero
maintains that such great salts
faction will make up for all the
time he has endured that noise dur
ing the vsas

GOING FOR WoLETs.


Three little maidens,
Pretty and good,
Seeking for violets,
Went through the wood.
They saw a little bluebird;
They saw a little sparrow;
They met a small boy
With bow and arrow.
Don't shoot the birdies!"
Cried they all three.
Come and hunt viOlets
BY the pine tree"
"1'll break my arrow"
Said the small boy,
And in the violets
Ill find my JOY"

Taps. 1t could be called Toots,
though. according to the way some
fellows howl it out
Notice that no sailors are to be
seen. Even our hero. Seaman ST.
las Simple is gone from the land
scape. He, like all the rest of the
Jockie boys, are strung up to the
ceiling to see how many can have
sense enough to, stay there, in
stead of falling out. 1t seems kind
of funny, but then, with cots, like
we have in the army, you do have
some trouble in keeping the legs
from being broken. There are ad
vantages to all sorts of things, l
suppose.
Taps means that one more day
has been thrown into the dump
pile, as the poets say; and we
close our beautiful and instructive
portrait Of the navy with a little
verse which Longfellow or some
body wrote, only of course / have
fixed it up to be little more like
the navy All the sailors can take
this as a good thing to say just be-
fore they go to hammock (they
don't have beds).
The night has come, but not too
soon,
And sinking silently,
All silently,
The little Jackies drift to seas of
sleep,
And sweetly sleep
Till morn is nigh.

SECOND CHOW iE4s

Second chow shows every one
sitting down except our hero. Sea-
man Simple. He is making a great
speech to his comrades, cheering
them on with their chow. He is
saying, "Give me liberty or give
me breath" He got some breath
so he went on.
He next made a little poem. It
was inspired to him by knowing Of
several fellow-sailors who had
gone down to neighboring lunch
room to try to buy what they want
ed for meal. His poem follows:
"There are lines that make US
happy.
There are lines that make us
sad,
But the noon hour line at
lunch rooms
Is the line that makes us mad"
The fellow mess-mates cheered
and applauded SO long after this
burst of poetry, that our hero had
ample time to eat all that he wish
ed before they stopped clapping.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-10-26

This expressive portrait Of Silas
Simple, with all the ditto marks,
is to illustrate one novel feature
of the navy which few notice off
hand. Look carefully, and you will
see that there are no wrist watches
on Seaman Simple or any of his
dittos. They are keeping time with
their feet.

A picture of the first chow. No
tice the wavy white line curling
up. That means it has been burnt
TO a crisp, and is still smoking.
Also notice that our hero is in
the lead. The next picture will
show what happens after such pre-
sumption.

Assembly call. This means that
all who have survived the first por-
ton Of the day, are called to real
work. Notice the grimly deter
mined expression on the face of
the man in the foreground; the
pale, wan and generally panied ex-
preston on the second, as his head
slightly droops forward. Also no
tice the relative size Of the men
coming up in the distance. The
picture is symbolical. We believe
you are only as big as you feel.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-10-26

Seaman Silas Simple immediate
ly after chow. They had navy
beans. He ate a great many. Now
he is wishing he hadn't. However,
being true nephew of Uncle Sam,
he does not sink down in a pitiful
heap, but does all in his power to
overcome the trouble.

We Are Winning tho War; Govern
ment Asks Your Continued Help. ,.
The satisfaction of knowing that you
did your best In the production OF poul-
try, eggs, etc. win be- great comfort
to you when the war is won. Even
then our boys and Allies will need
our best efforts for long time after.
In this connection Mr.. Olof M. Sundt,
Willmar, representing In this county
the National Department of Agricul-
ture and State Agricultural College
in poultry work offers the following
suggestions for the promotion Of bet
ter and more poultry.
The great drawback for profitable
poultry keeping in very many cases is
the lack of careful and timely consid'
Grafton and not ignorance as many
suppose. Chicken pox, roup, lice, and
many of the ailments that commonly
infect and affect poultry are due In al
most every case to the carelessness
of the owner. The Government and
State college have given deep thought
and spent much money in trying to
have more and better poultry produc'
ed, but their good work will avail very
little If the farmers and poultry pro
ducers in general do not take more
thought and care of their poultry
There is no greater point than santa
ton. The house, shed or whereve,
poultry is kept should be clean and
sanitary. The fowls should be free
from lice The water should be fresh
and in clean vessels. Almost every
known disease can be avoided If q
little care is used. Do not overcrowd
Do not keep weaklings. Do not handle
your poultry on any less degree OF
efficiency than you do your cattle
horses, hogs or sheep.

 Waterbury, for example, was ais vided into s districts and subceni: mittees were assigned ta canvass these districts and report daily numb: e. sf rooms vacant or available for purposes of the campaign. Informa- tion was obtained regarding the mum. ter of furnished and unocupied rcms
