THE u. S. NAVAL ACADEMY
T INCLE SANS great training school
~ for the development Of the GENT
who are to guide the desttnies Of
the American navy was founded In
the year 1916.
1t Is located at Annapolis, the
quaint little capital city Of the state
of Maryland. which, to this day, re-
tains a distinctly English favor-On
tract of land where formerly stood
Fort Severn. Its position ON the River
Severn, which connects it with the
Chesapeake bay, is both a fitting and
an advantageous one.
When the Civil war broke out q
change Of location was considered ad.
yisable and the academy was moved
to Newport, r. 1. In 1865 1t was
moved back to- Annapolis.
Since 1898 most of the buildings
have either been enlarged or recon
structed and many new ones have
been built. Today this academy Is
considered the. beSt-equipped and hand
soonest naval institution Of learning In
the entire world.
The present course, much Of which
Is usually spent at sea, requires, four
years to complete. After graduation
a midshipman is commissioned, an. en-
sign In the navy and assigned to reg
ular service.

WRITING 1T AT HOME

A BUNCH Of fOur-fOur happy kids

All four a mighty big expense,
But ev'ry one treasure.
And when want it quiet like =;
So I can do my writing,
The noise that bunch begins to make
Sounds like two armies fighting.
One Chambers over my machine;
One asks for help with numbers;
One for my pencil makes demand;
One my tired knee encumbers.
"a dozen eggs cost forty cents,
What will three dozen eostT'
And by the time work 1t out
My thread of thought Is lost r
One sticky hand is reaching cut
To grasp my thinning locks.
One piercing voice makes loud demand
For help with building blocks,
my pencils broke; please, sharpen 1t
So can write the rest
And then the thoughts I've garnered In
Are all knocked gally west. :! 49,,

But when. at last, the sandman comes
And all four little heads go
Are resting on the pillows white
OF two soft, downy beds;
And all Is quiet round the house
Where once the noise did ring,
I start to wrtte-and then can't think

In Memory of Banks Watkins

A dear brother from us has gone,
And for him we all mourn.
He was always patient. kind and true
Which made you feel he was a friend
10 you.
We VIII mss so much his faithful
life,
But We know that he is through with
strife.
Wherever he went he made kind
friends,
Who were ready 10 minister 10 him
TO the end.
|, is so hard to give him up.
But me must drink the bitter cup.
For We know that with all our love,
He has gone to 1--we in his home above.
He is up there now. with the heav-
enly band,
Where the followers Of Christ are
able to stand.
He is through with all sorrow, pain
and woe.
And may we all be wiling that he
should 90.

Contribution Went to New Bern
Sufferers Wednesday Afternoon
Mrs. Beckett Kept EN- Sober
While She Sat

Enforcement of prohibition is not
listed in the statutory catalogue Of
the maternity bureau of the State
Board of Health, but if the field
representative of the bureau, just by
sitting down somewhere can compel
sobr.e,y for a whole day, even if
she didn't know about il. nobody
ought to kick. The department is
against Ticker anyhow, as medicine.
There's no medicine in il, DIR. Rankin
mas often averred.
This impromptu drought hap
pened in a remote community in a
remote mountain county some weeks
back when Mrs. Thomas Walter
Beckett, and companion were sched-
uled to spend an afternoon with the
mothers Of the neighborhood, says the
News and Observer. About 25 of
them were assembled at a home that
happened to be the central point in
the community. Mrs. Bieke,t had
spoken and had taken her seat on a
great chest at the back of the room,
while the discussion continued.
The maternity bureau appeals
solely to women, but the husbands
of most of the women accompanied
them to the meeting place and tar
ried on the outside while the women
held their meeting within. Mrs.
Beckett could hear a good deal of
what was going on outside while the
other speaker was talking. The men
talked of this and that, the election,
crops, the coming of winter. Now
and then another would arrive and
join the group.
Into the midst came somewhat
more boisterous person. He talked
very loud and his choice of words
was rather more forceful than ele-
CANT. Frequently so. He wanted
liquor. The master of the premises
told him to be quiet. He wanted Ii
auor and he wanted it then and there.
The master told him he lust couldn't
get it. He reiterated it, and repeated
1t until it became sing-song.
"Well, why can't | get it? Haven't
| been getting it here twenty years
and getting it whenever | wanted il?
How come | can't get it?'
"You just can't get it today-they
amt any use talking any more about
it. You just can't get it."
"Well, tell me how come | can't
get it. H'aint allus been getting
it here?"
"If you just rot to know, that
Beckett woman is se,tin' on the chest
where it's at"

Ruskin, the great English writer,
insists that the life that does not
know any giving up of self is an
unworthy life. Again and again he
calls to self-denial and self-sacrifice
if we are to follow our Master. Rus
kin was born heir to nearly million
dollars, and by his writings earned
another fortue. Possessed of wealth,
of youth and fame, he was courted by
all the rich and great, but gave him
self and his means to the poor. He
saw multitudes of men and women
toiling in shops for eighty hours a
week, and decided to devote himself
to their uplifting. To this purpose
he gave tenth of his fortune, then
third, a half, and finally all his
means.-Exchange.

NOTHING SMALL ABOUT
The PEOPLE OF MONROE
This is What DIR. Burrell Said on
Seeing the Stock of Clothing. and
Mayor Pro TEN Trull Said Amen
CLOTHING PROBABLY BEING
WORN BY NEEDY TODAY

Nothing small about the people of
Monroe when they 90 to do things"
said DIR. W. X. Burrell as the con-
tributions TO the New Bern sufferers
rolled into the Mayors office Wednes-
day afternoon.
Amen to that" said Mayor Pro
Tenn Trull. who. with DIR. Burrell, was
very active in directing the eollec-
tions of the contributions.
The people had been asked to act
quickly. and they did. The ladies
who solicited the contributions did
so Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday
morning, and the boxes went of by
express Wednesday afternoon.
There has rarely been such col
lection of garments here. Several
automobile loads were collected and
the contributions were not shoddy
stuff at all. The call had been made
for women's and children's garments
and these came in. including shoes,
Bed clothing underwear, dresses,
we're included, most of it perfectly
clean, much fresh laundered, and
ready for use.
The express company gave the
goods free passage to New Bern, and
the. probably arrived there yester-
day afternoon and are being worn
by this time.
DR.. Burrell and Mr.. Trull wish to
thank every one who helped and
who contributed. The work was done
quickly and generously. and a rough
estimate of the value of the goods
placed il at one thousand dollars. Dry
goods men said that had the goods
been new they would have been worth
$4,000.
