SAFETY ORDERS

X GU use non-skid tires, don't you
And rubber heels, and chew your
SpDd, and are careful not to stick head
ssAf arms out of the window? Then
aAere's accident insurance, dentists,
Ad pure food laws to keep you out
E trouble.
But do you have list of things that
lght happen? And do you keep that
w In sight7 I've ten-spot says you
on.
An the navy we do. Ammunition and
s&uns are Of course the dangerous part
our equipment, almost of our lives.
after years of experience and many
accidents we have been able to cata-
apgue all the possible misfortunes that
night befall a loading crew. We have
'suevlsed a complete set of instructions
which, IL properly carried out, consti-
sfute stitch-in-time against all such
miss stitches as fire, explosion, and
destruction Of the ship.
This list is called the warship's
safety orders.
Almost the first safety order is that
shey all shall be printed and posted
ia every part of the turrets and near
all guns. Men must know them back
wards and forward, and one at time.
Men must know this safety first" cate
chism so perfectly that when the emer-
gency arises no instant shall be lost
remembering just what to do.
Safety orders are of two kinds, pre-
sentiye and stop-it-iye. The former
discourage the DEVILS visit. The latter
entertain him after be has arrived. OF
the former some samples are those In
regard to ammunition: Don't take
naked lights" into magazines. Don't
drill with 'live"-that is, loaded-am-
muniuon. Don't expose too many
charges at one ttme-two or three are
the limit with the big guns. Don't
handle shells and powder bags rough
ty-they are strong, but much stronger
u they go OFF In your hands.
Most care is taken at the guns
themselves After each shot the plug.
: man must sponge of, his breeeh-bIock.
Suppose $50 lbs. of smokeless powder
are showed In for the next shot. Sup
pose the red-hot plug is swung home to
stop the powder. Before it locks the
whole mass may ignite. And the only
possible advantage that can come out
of such carelessness is the afternoon
of you may get while burytng the
ashes of your shipmates who were in
that turret, Safety orders say
SPONGE" And, believe me, we
SPONGE! .T
There are over 200 safety orders.
No more important set of commands
exists in the feet. No day passes
without some drill and instructions In
Guiding them. And the result is safety.

THAT last year Of the eighteenth

TSHAT last year Of the eighteenth
century Hayslope was a pleas

was far enough away from the noise
Of @Boney'st battles to sleep In peace.
Men chatted Of crops and rents, and
listened to the gossip Of women folk
regarding Dinah Morris Of Snowfield.
Mrs. Poyser's own niece, who had
turned "Methody" preacher and would
stand right before men on the village
green. talking to them Of the comfort
they could find In their friend, Jesus
Christ.
And, worse stiIl, Dinah was so at
traetiEe and so grayely loving that the
men, and women too, gladly listened
to her. Big Adam Bede, the carpen-
ter, would have liked to see more Of
her, had he eyes for any one except
cid Poyser's niece. Hetty Sorrel. As
for Hetty, she had no thought for
Adam; Captain Arthur Donnithorne,
heir of the estate, had whispered too
many things In her pretty ear.
1t was natural enough. There. in
her aunt's white dairy, rounding her
dimpIed arm to lift q pound Of butter
out Of the scale, Hetty had the beauty
of q fuzzy kitten. Her large dark eyes
had soft ROBUSTNESS, and her curly
hair. pushed away under her cap. stole
back In delicate rings on her forehead
OF course, the dashing captain had no
foolish ideas about marriage, but them
as he bent over her shoulder. he was
soldier enough to feel his head turn
very fast. He had no wish to harm
her. you may be sure OF that, for he
had great pride In the Donnithorne
estate, and II Is pleasant for rich
young man 70 be liked and admired
One August evening Adam walked
homeward through grove of grand
beeehes, the glory of the estate. As
carpenter and woodsrnan, he delighted
In fine trees. and paused to look at q
huge beech which stood at the turn
ing before the grove ended In an arch
way of boughs-
All his life he remembered that
moment. for there. not twenty yards
away, stood two figures, close. with
ciasped hands. They started. The
girl hurried away, while Arthur Don
nithorne walked slowly forward He
was flushed and excited. but treasured
himself by remembering that Adam
was 8 sensible person. not likely to
hahble. That the big sober carpenter
loved Hetty. Arthur had no Idea.
