BOARD
IS USING BOATS
TO TRAIN BOYS

Unique in war equipment is a
national squadron of training ships
now being formed by the United
States Shipping Board, on which
young Americans between the ages
of II and 81, may learn the trade
of seagoing preparatory to service
in the new merchant marine.
Heading the squadron is the ex-
transport Meade, well known to
American sailors as the former
Atlantic liner City of Berlin. Built
in Scotland in 1874 for the avowed
purpose of lowering the trans-At-
lantic speed record, the City of Ber-
lin was not only the finest but the
fastest ocean greyhound of her day.
She captured the record both east
and west between New York and
Queenstown in 1875, her eastbound
time being days, Is hours, and
as minutes.
Taken by the, United States Gov
eminent in 1898 and renamed the
Meade, the former record holder
served as transport in the Spanish
war and for a dozen years there
after.
In spite of her "A years, the
Meade is still a sound and hand
some vessel. Her model is finely
proportional. Her bow, long and
sharp and adorned with an old
style figurehead in the form of a
woman, is a sort to delight the eye
of sailor.
The Meade is 523 feet long and
A feet wide, and registers 5,641
tons gross. She has capacity for
900 apprentices. The ship is now
being overhauled at Newport News,
Va, where she has been laid up for
several years.
She will be taken in the early
spring to Boston, the home port of
the Shipping Boards training squad
ron. Here are stationed two other
vessels of the squadron, the Calvin
Austin and Governor Dingley, sister
ships, 800 feet long and so feet
wide, formerly in passenger service
on the New England coast. Each
of these vessels already has on
board a large complement of ap-
prentices.
A fourth ship for the squadron
is now being fitted out q New York
and will join the others in the early
spring. ~-..~.:..--. =. 49," -: 49,. r:
When all four ships are in com
mission, the training squadron will
have capacity for more than 2,700
apprentices, who will be drilled as
Seamen, flremen, oilers, water
tenders, coal passers, cooks and
stewards.
Intensive training, including life
boat and fire drill, from month
to two months on the training ship,
is to be followed by actual service
on board new cargo vessels of the
merchant marine.
The training squadron is under
the direction of the Shipping Boards
recruiting service, Henry Howard
director, national headquarters Of
which are in the Boston custom
house.

The territory of Alaska, because
of differing commercial conditions
themselves, due to climatic, geo.
graphical and vocational causes, each
having a direct bearing on the
character and quantity of licensed
commodities purchased and used,
and upon the time of purchase and
arrival at their Alaskan destination,
is hereby divided into three regions
in order that the rules and regula-
tons of the United States Food Ad-
ministration from time to time pro-
mulgated by the President of the
United States under authority con-
ferred upon him by the act of con-
gress, approved August 10, 1917,
and known as the Food Control Act,
may be fairly and reasonably ap-
piled as promulgated or as modified
in said territory, to dealing in
licensed commodities, which said
regions are hereby described as
follows: ~x.s Laa
Region A
The Pacific coastal region con-
sists of all of Southeastern Alaska
or the First Judicial Division, and
all that part of Central Alaska or
the Third judicial Division, lying
south of the coast range of noun
tains and east of the 153rd meridian
of west longitude, including therein,
however, all cities, towns and settle
ments directly on the several lines
of railroad extending from the coast
which penetrate or extend beyond
the coast range.
Region B
The Bristol Bay apd Alaskan Pen
insula region consists of the Alaska
Peninsula and adjacent islands in
either the Pacific ocean or the Ber-
ing Sea side, and the mainland Dor
dering on Bristol Bay and lying
west of said 153rd meridian of west
longitude and south of the Goth
parallel of north latitude.

Age and Youth.

The older man who remembers a
younger whom he has once met and
greets him on the street Is an excep-
tional person. And the younger man
who, on being thus remembered and
greeted, feels neither pleasure nor
gratitude, is an exceptional person. If
the deferential respect OF the young
is gratifying to the elderly, the notice
and the interest Of the elderly are
stimulating to the young, observes a
writer In Youths Companion. To
think Of each person whom you meet
as an individual, however young he
may be, to try to discover In what
ways be is individual, and to charge
the memory with the impression Of
him-those should be regarded as so
cial obligations By people who have at
tanned middle age and who with Il
should have acquired some degree Of
wisdom and Of interest In the human
kind.

no relief. It was the same old story,
oft repeated-different doctors with
different remedies, often nauseating,
which left me really worse off than
before. Then, one day, an old parish
Toner friend told me Of Acid Iron
Mineral. And | am now so grateful
that want all suffering humanity to
know of this wonderful natural iron.
All can say is: God answered my
prayer"
This is but one of many thousands
of similar letters received during the
past thirty years from doctors, cler-
gymen, lawyers, pharmacists and lay
men who have first known peace and
happiness after taking Aim. And
the best Of it is that the patient takes
no risk, financial or physical, in TAX
ing this marvellous organic iron, for
it does not discolOr the teeth, as do
other irons; and it aids, instead of
detracts, in all forms of indigestion.
Statistics show that 1t benefits over
ninety-four per cent Of those who
use it. The proprietors can we'll af.
ford to unqualifedly guarantee 1t to
Jail, and accept the losses Of the mi
mute few it fails to relieve of all suf-
fering. Therefore, all druggists have
been instructed to refund its pur-
chase price if, after taking the first
bottle the patient does not feel Wig
orous, hearty and hale-or so much
better that he insists on continuing
its use.
Acid Iron Mineral not only thins
the blood, but strengthens and invigo-
rates it. For those who suffer from
the effects of thickened, heavy blood,
coagulated and polluted with the
waste matter of the winters accumu-
lation, Aim stands without a peer;
for it not only thins and purifes the
blood, but carries the various inn
purities out Of the system naturally
and effectively. AS a general "spring
tonic" and as prompt relief for that
stirred feeling" and rundown condi-
ton so prevalent at this season, it re.
mains the only natural, non-corrosive
fully assimilable and digestible iron
known to medical science.
Therefore, reject all spurious imi-
tations, which profit-seeking druggists
try to thrust upon you, and demand
the original Acid Iron Mineral.
Acid Iron Mineral is on sale by all
progressive druggists in the United
States, Canada and Great Britain.

-LoHSleliOW,
These are the heroes-real heroes
the people who, wracked with bod
lily pain, and suffering untold misery
and agony-still greet one with a
smile, and uncomplaingly complete
their daily tasks.
Such was the life history Of the
Rev. E. E. Sullivan, of Savage, Miss,
who, though he suffered the solu-and-
body torture of ever-present pain,
still mounted the pulpit an dpreached
happiness and content to his unsus-
.pecting congregation.
SO accomplishing, his human flock
never suspected that he spent those
''long nights of misery and days de-
void of ease"-and yet heard within
his soul that music of beautiful melo-
dies"
Have you one such in your family
perhaps crippled up with the insa-
table agony of rheumatism, the
Notwithstanding misery of continued
back-ache, Of the soul-defying troture
Of chronic indigestion who still
manages to greet you with a smile
and conceals his agony with words
of happiness and cheer?
If so, the words of DR.. Sullivan
should interest you--in the cause of
humanity alone; and you should seek
to create for that beloved one such
"surcrease of sorrow and misery" as
the last stanza of this famous poem
portrays:
"Then the night shall be filled with
music, and
The cares which infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs,
And silently steal away"
"For years / suffered the tortures
Of the damned" DR.. Sullivan writes.
Through the long vigil of sleepless
nights, ] prayed my wonder
ing why l should be so cursed. But
He at last answered my prayer, and
today am well and vigorous man
again. May His Name be praised
"Many years l suffered the excru-
ciating agony of sick headache, heart
burn and pains in my back. Horrible
misery beset me, leaving cramps in
my sides, arms and legs. But tried
to bear my cross, as He would have
me.
