RESCUE SHIPS DOG
Naval Men Show Concern Over
Pet During Battle.
Flash Signal to Flagship for PERMITS
sion to Save Animal, and It's
Granted.

LOndon.-Interesting stories of ma
val life were told the other night by
Maj. II. COrbett Smith, speaking at the
Old Vic Waterloo. One concerns a
dog. The naval men love a dog and
dogs love the men in the navy.
During a battle with aircraft, when
bombs were dropping all about the
sea and destroyer was running
around, taking shots the best she
could at the tantalizing foe, signal
was shot over to the flagship:
May we rescue the ships dog?
He's fell over"
The greatest danger having passed,
the word Eyes" was flashed back, and
the dog was picked up.
A seaman whose wound necessitated
the amputation Of leg during the
Jutland battle "came to" unexpected
ly, and, reaching for the missing part
of his anatomy, said:
where's my leg? It's got all my
money in the stocking"
Gardeners, sculptors, architects,
painters and shopkeepers Joined the
navy as utility" men. One day one
of this nondescript group was put to
work with paint pot He was mess
ing away when an officer looked at his
work and said:
''For heavens sake, what kind of a
painter do you call yourself?"
''Well, l usually exhibit in the Royal
academy"
Another Jutland battle anecdote was
told as follows:
A destroyer reported certain minor
defects" Those defects were that she
could neither steam, signal nor steer.
'If you ask the men Of the navy
who take the biggest share" said Ma
jOr Smith, "they will answer: It's
hats off to the destroyers every time
These men stand at their stations,
wet through, cold, dog-tired and green
with sea sickness, with nothing hot

they stick it out. It's the job of the
navy. There is never week, assure
you, but there is some real hard at

Brunswick RECEIVERS from the wounds
received" says the writer of the arti-
part as follows:
"The great international strike has
come to an end in Brunswick, and the
labor movement is richer by very
grievous experience. The strike was
brought out by few agitators, and
had been in preparation for long
time.
Consumption Methods Used.
'"The authorities in Brunswick in
deed knew more about the threatened
strike than the leaders Of the local
trade unions, who were unable to take
ing people.
"The most INSCRIPTIONS methods
were used to persuade the workers to
take part in the strike. RumOrs were
put out to the effect that the strike
was for the purpose Of putting an end
to the control Of food exercised by the
authorities, also that 1t was to exert
pressure on the employers to grant de-
mands which had been put forward
by the Metal Workers union. 1t was
also declared that not only in Ger
many, but throughout the world, in

bring about peace.
"The number of persons out on
strike in Brunswick the first day was
5000, which was increased the next
two days by female workers from the
jam and spinning factories.
"On the breaking out of the strike

military command. He added that the
working people would suffer heavily If,
against wiser cOunsels, they persisted
In the strike. The strikers voted to
continue the strike.
"a few hours after this fateful deci-
sion had been taken the orders of the
military authorities were pasted up in
the streets. These required that work
should be resumed on Friday morning,
in default Of which strict conditions Of
martial law would be introduced.
Special Military Court
