Enough of Land
 And Love- Jack
 Prefers The Sea

Of course, as the saying goes, sailor has a sweetheart in every port. But some of the sweethearts who pick up the sailors from off the boats are not what they are cracked up to be.
 Floyd J. Robinson, 20 years old, among those waiting at the county jail for the mills of the gods to start grinding, will say so.
 Floyd is a fireman on the U. s. s. Georgia, and his home is in Jack sonvglie, Florida. A week ago today he got shore leave at San Diego. Softly hummine "Ja Da!", he donned his freshly ironed jacket and bell bottomed trousers, stuck a newly scrubbed white hat on his head and dashed off down the gang plank to wreak havoc among the southern California belles. There was one in particular, but
 Just where he was when he woke up on Sunday morning he can't re-
 member, but his money belt was gone. So was his sweetheart.
 Sick of the sea and not very proud of himself, Floyd started home to Florida, but he was so hungry by the time he reached Maricopa he turned himself over to Deputy Sheriff Cooper, who brought him to Phoenix "Wednesday morning. Until next Tuesday Robinson is A. w. 0. L. After that he will be a deserter, unless word is received in the meantime regarding his disposi- ton from the commanding officer cf his ship.
 Floyd is right keen to go back. He loves the big oceon and wants to get back where the flying fishes play. and the only women present are the Charles Dana Gibson models, 1900, smiling seductively from the walls of the officers ward room.

Visiting EIks.

Ensign O'Beirne is out Of money
again. It's no new condition this
being out OF money. Ensign O'Beirne,
however, has extenuating circum-
stances considering the fact that he
has on his hands large sized family,
outside of his own kiddies. During
the summer months the Salvation
Army nursery has been thriving at
its cool Nursery Camp near White
Rock. In spite Of everything, these
babies continue to eat and grow,
which means grocery and dry goods
bills must be paid. Merchants are
heartless enough to require this.
There are other bills besides The
Ensign says he would like a bit Of
help from Fairmonters again If they
will be so exceedingly kind and In
order that they may not feel they
have put their hands down in their
capacious pockets without some re-
turn, he is selling DoUGHNUTS on
Thursday Of this week all day long.
A number OF veil known ladies in
the city have consented to attend to
the selling part and some Of the fin
est doughnuts you ever tasted will
appear most anywhere along Main
street next Thursday, from Quincy
street to the Y. W. c. A. Stands will
be placed in front Of the courthouse
and ladies with baskets or trays well
filled will occupy prominent places In
other locations. Five thousand
DOUGHNUTs are to be made fresh
the last thing Wednesday Most Of
them viii be rolled in delicious pow
dered sugar, If powdered sugar can
be found, and all Of them are expect
ed to disappear long before the day
is over. A charge of anything you
would like to give will be asked, no
special price being quoted. The plan
was suggested by the Elk's Club and
