.Paek Up Your Troubles.

SPaek Up Your Troubles.n
We arrived at Swinemunde, on the
east bank, and after we had had our
drink Of water and had been rousted
back into the bunkers, Badewitz went
across to the west side in launch
with Joyce and Hill and guard Of
sailors. They were to be shot the
next morning, with some others, at q
public shooting.fest. The rest Of M
wrapped ourselves In Jumps Of coal as
best we could and tried to sleep.
In the morning crowds Of Germans
came aboard us and were turned
loose on the boxes in the hold. It
was sight to see them rip of tho
covers and gobble the salami and 9th.

table. I guess. but IL you had seen
them, you would say these Germans
did not even have trough manners I

While they were at 1t, hand to hand
with the chow, giving and receiving
terrible punishment, we prisoners
were mustered on deck, counted.

the west bank, where the mob was
waiting for us. My wounds, as you
can imagine. were in a pretty bad
state by this time, and were getting
more painful every minute, 50 that
found I was getting ugly and anxious
for an argument. I knew that IL l
stayed this way I would probably
never come out alive, for there 10
every chance you could want to pick
a quarrel while you are a prisoner
that will mean freedom for you-but
only the freedom Of going west, which
I was not anxious to try.
When we got near the west bank.

up against q battle with our arms tied.
Over half the crowd was women and

Think right. and you viii generally
be right.
If you haven't measured up to exbse-
fdtions during 1918 YOU must find tie
reason.
The truth will doubtless Jar your.
self.opinion a little, and you would
hate to see the analysis in the news
paper. But the results will be just as
public IL you fail ar4 men who read
between the lines know the facts. So
II you're concerned about the future
you will respect the verdict and hon
cstly set out to avoid the foolish things
done in 1918. You will make your
DIRECTIONS at once. II you continue
In error you will damage your work.
Ing ability, not to speak of your repu-
tation and character. 1t isn't bust
ness to toy with things costly. You
can better afford to down foolish
self-pride than be dOwned by tasks
too big for you. If you make the cor
rections to your life Mt once even the
balance of this year will profit by
the stock taking and you will start the
year with little practice.
The best assurance of success is found
~ taking stock of the means of attain
'ng il: 8:
over.zeal. Faith does wonders, but it's
healthy process to mix considerable
good Judgment with it.. Promises to
pay IRE Of no value without the abil-
ity to redeem them. You must count
the cost before beginning the new en-
terprise. Scan your personal fitness
before undertaking new ventures. IF
you stand the test you are bound to
win. You have no reason to expect
that simply because you attempt some.
thing beyond you some mysterious
power is going to pull you through.
The New Year will be full of chal-
lenges and for that reason l want you
to take stock and be ready for the test
Ing when 1t comes.
There's nothing like knozving zvhat yos
dare expect of yourself.
It's just as foolish to attempt Jobs
too big for you as 1t is to he afraid
of what you can do easily. There are
some organizations that put on cam
paigns these days to help people find
themselves. II you want the same
results without the publicity go after
your own case and don't be too easy
with the subject. The coming year
Will be full of great opportunities and
yen won't know what to do when they
come unless you take stock in advance.
To be sure some lucky turn of for
tunes wheel may put you in high
place. but you IRE far more likely to
stay ut the top II you rise by merit.
You o7Ue yourself dnd your friends
your best record for the coming year.
1t should be matter of satisfaction
to know that you have the ability to
do big things. It's equally important
to know your weakness If you should
be confronted with big things. In any
case failure does not add to your
credit. Many of life's failures could
be avoided II men would only take
stock. This is business, and you
should not shirk it IL you want to sue
coed. Rise to power and criticism
go together. You will escape most OF
the latter, If you take time. to find
yourself and fit yourself for being
your best. Take stock before othera
toxic 1t for you and corrections arc
too late.

THE DEATH OF THE OLD YEAR

Full knee-deep lies the winter snow.
And the winter winds are YEARLY siRh.,

And tread softly, and speak low,
For the Old Year lies a.dying.
Old Year. you must not die;
You came to US so readily.

Old Year, you shall not die.

fore the sentry even had told his
story. After a while Badewitx quit
pounding the cook, and listened to the
sentry. Then Badewitz said the cook
had put note In the dixie before he
dropped it, SO they beat him up again
and put him in irons. After that they
sent the rest Of the cooks back, and
would not let them. on deck again.
They had plenty Of canned goods and
meat aboard. but they would not give
us any.
Five Of the men were buried at sea
that day. More men were going mad
every minute, and It was a terrible
place; pitch dark, grimy, loose coal
underfoot, coal-dusty air to breathe,
body-flth everywhere. Some Of the
crazy men howled like dogs, But we
were not as much afraid Of these as
we were Of the others who kept still,
but slipped around In the dark with
Jumps Of coal in their hands. We
got so we would not 60 near each
other for fear we were running into q
crazy man. Those Of us VINO were
sane collected as near. the flddley %
we could, and we would not let the
others get near us, but showed them
back or SHE'D Jumps Of coal at them.
And every once in q while some one
Of us would begin to act queer. May
be he would let out d howl suddenly,
without any warning. q Or he would
just quit talking and begin to sneak
around. Or he would squat down and
begin to humble. We could not tell
just when . man had begun to lose
his mind. He would seem Just like
the rest Of us, because none Of % was
much better than q beast.
We could not take turns sleeping
and standing watch against the crazy
men, because when we talked about
Il. we agreed that none Of us could
tell whether or not the sentries would
go crazy while on watch and have the
rest Of us at their mercy. It was aw-
ful to talk about going crazy in this
way, and to figure that you yourself
might be the next and that It was al.
most sure to happen II you did not
get some sleep soon. But It was, worse
to find q man near you going, and have
to boot him out with the other insane
men. 81.
The days passed like that. with
nothing to do but suffer, and starve
and freeze. It got colder and colder,
and all we could wrap ourselves in
was the coal. We began to speculate
on where we were. It was not till
later than an old skipper in our bunch
told us that we had rounded the north
ern coast Of Iceland.
Finally. one day, q lad yelled down
sLandp and we all dove for the I'D.
dley K8e wild men. and those who
could get near enough looked out, and
sure enoughi there was the coast Of
Norway. very rugged and rocky and
covered with snow. We thought II
was all over then, and that we would
be landed at Bergen sure. Then there
was the usual running around and
yelling on deck, and we were not 80
