Letters received in Seward indicate that men seeking
t( join the* navy are looked upon askance, The men are
wanted for the army. But why? The New h ork Herald
recently printed an article that out of 2000 men examined
for the navy. 1800 failed to qualify for they were driven
an examination on stormy waters and—became seasick—
something' that will make the best of men absolutely use
less. Then why discriminate against the navy? Trans
I orts loaded with troops and supplies must be guarded;
dost rovers must be manned to defeat the submarine; sub
chasers and scores of other boats are always requiring
trews, men and officers, all for the navy.
<)l»servance of meatless meals, for the time being, with
tiie exception of one meatless day, Tuesday, has been or
dered void. This is owing to traffic conditions on land
and overseas. But wheatless days and wheatless meals
are to be observed more extensive than before. Follow
instructions and we will win the war.
It's an ill wind, etc., but where in the great blazes does
the good come to a man going home from work at 2 o’clock
in tlie morning, stumbling, slipping along; losing his
breath an 1 then catching it again, soaked in the face by
particles of icy snow—where does the wind blow some
rood? Don’t all answer at once for it will take some
thought.
Don’t forget to register if you expect to vote at the
eitv election.
