NEWSIES AN INSTITUTION WITH CREWS OF SHIPS
 OF BIG PACIFIC FLEET

WITH THE PACIFIC FLEET, Aug. 25 (by maiD Nearly every ship in the Pacific fleet has it's own newsboy, who, by train, follows it from port to port and serves the officers and men with the latest papers and, often, also, With the latest papers from the several large nome towns" usually represented among the crew
 The newsboys who serve the Paci- fic fleet are mostly New Workers. They remained with the units of the fleet until they left Hampton Roads for the west coast. They reached San Diego by train in time to greet the ailor when the fleet arrived there. Since then they have been following the ships up the coast and plan to continue indefinitely "on the job.'
 These "newsies" become the gen uine friends of the sailors. They become familiar with affairs aboard ship. They serve the sailors in many ways. They take them supplies. They post letters. They deliver mes sages. Tn many other ways the act as the sailors agent ashore.
 Tn return, the sailors patronize the "newsies" liberally and the boys who have the naval trade in papers prob ably make much more than any city newsbOy.
 By right of seniority, Peggy Brown is considered the "chief'' of the newsies of the fleet. He finds his patrons among the men on the dreadnaught Mississippi, which he has followed about ever since it was launched.
 Before that, he served in the navy and in an accident lost leg. Be- cause of a wooden one he uses, he is called Peggy" Recently there was a rumor that he had been killed in Los Angeles. Gloom enveloped the Mississippi like a fog. When he reap peared the Mississippi's crew felt happier than if a days liberty had been granted.
 Others of the> newsboy force are F. MugIar, who serves the flagship New Mexico; L. Sullivan, the Yer mont, Nebraska and Georgia; Joe Messin, the Texas and Seattle; |. Sherman, the Wyoming, and E. Brown, "Peggy's" brother, the Ar kansas.

HOW SOLDIERS MAIL
 OFTEN GOES ASTRAY

vLADIVOSTOK, July 15 (Corres- pOndence of Associated Press)-Hun- dreds of letters intended for Ameri- can soldiers in Siberia have gone astray because of incorrect addresses, according to s. A. Cisler, United States postal agent in Siberia, who was sent here with the American eX- peditionary forces to look after the mail for the doughboy. Many letters intended for Siberia were sent to Archangel when American troops were there, and many letters intend ed for Archangel were sent to Vladi- vostok.
 The correct address for letters to Siberia is: Name, unit, A. E. F., Si- beria, via San Francisco, Writing the unit to which the soldier belongs in the address saves at least twenty four hours delivery of mail upon reaching the A. E. F., base in Siberia. Mail addressed to units is delivered from the ship at VIadivostok without being redistributed at the main Unit ed State post office here.
 All the big trans-Pacific liners are used for carrying mail to Japan and thence to Siberia, and some ships make the trip direct from Vla- divostok each week for Japan, con meeting with the mail liners for Amer ica. '"The soldiers in Siberia are long way from home and every letter from America makes the stay here that much easier" says the United States postal agent, who urges that more letters be written.
 Three American potoffices have been established in Siberia at Amer ican troop centers. One is at Shko- tova, 30 miles northwest of Vladl- vostok. These postoffices are for use of the A. E. F., the American Red Cross. the Y. M. c. A., and the Rus Railway Service Corp. American civilians in Siberia obtain their mall through the Russian pOstOffice.
