1N up they go back to
I~Z passing I b o u t
looking. as they did
the hrst day. Ii by that time you
haven't got everybody's number. you
are just plain dumb.
There has been enough heads to-
geather In the meantime to patch up.
or I'LL In any odds and ends that might
be missing about some of en-. Its awful
hard to be on . boat anywhere, and
not be recognized by sight by some
body. Then II you have any past, the
one that knows 1t, trades 1t for some
thing about somebody that they know.
Then II there Is any missing lnforma-
ton you can always go to the purser.
There is nobody in America. or the
civilized world that a purser on boat
don't know. he makes a hotel clerk
look like a man that was deaf, dumb
and blind. He has had this or that man
on the voyage. away back when they
used to have their wife, or husband
with en- That's how long he knows EN-.
Then to help out your information
you have the folks on q boat that do
nothing but ride on boats. They will
hem you up back over the propeller
and tell you how many times they have
crossed this particular stretch OF
ocean. Ii its to Honolulu they a point
out the various sharks and call EN- by
name as they swim along by the boat
and beg for an arm or leg.
Then there is always the Buyers"
on there that change clothes a few
times a day and make a play for all
the ONE They are what the old time
country drummer was. They know all
OF Wynn's and Pearls latest jokes and
What the country will come to II they
ke ep on carrying on like they are. Then
the girls with all the colored Stacks on.
1t takes an awful rough sea to keep
them from walking the deck. And there
is many OF EN- on that you wouldent
hardly call a girl anymore.
Then there Is generally a diplomat or
some breed on board. He always looks
like a f~at-footed secreat police. Because
you cal tell one a ships length away.
You hem him up In the smoking room
and he talks very mysterious about his
trip and his mission. He tells you he
Is being called home for q .Consulta-
ton" but its generally for an examina-
ton. Then the children God Bless
EN-" they are running and tripping
over everybody. 1t takes a rough day to
quiet them down. And you almost wish
It. Then there Is the fast walker
the deck. They never walk at
home. but they are going to be athaletic
on this trip.
Then too there Is the exclusive ohes.
They are on the same boat. but they
look on the others as lepers- They don't
want to be contaminated. They look
like the minute they get on the boat
will fly to a castle somewhere
from all earthly things. Then
there Is the ships officers who are al.
pleasant and nice. And that must
be quite a trial at times. with all the
questions that are asked OF them.
Officer tell me which Is the port and
which is the %starboard side OF this
boat. just cant get 1t straight, and why
N the world do they call EN- by those
odd names?"
"Oh Captain. what time win we
lock-! How about my camera, they
say these laps are cranky as goats
