'MODELED ON BFITISH NAVY German Fleet May Be Said to Be a * Copy of the Famous War Ves- : sels of England. , Strange though the assertion may sound, it is nevertheless literally and absolutely true that the German navy -’}s the child of the British navy. : t There are people still' living in ortsmouth who can recall seeing & E;ttle boy in a sailor suit, who, more han forty years ago, used to wander bout the dockyard looking at the hips there with eager curiosity and king all sorts of questions concernfing them. : .

" This little boy was nohe other than *he German emperor, who in those days was a frequent visitor to his randmother, Queen Victoria, at Osborne. The then newly created Gerempire had at that time praccally no fleet, and the child, old beFond his years, was frequently heard o lament this fact. : { “When I grow up I will have ships built like these,” he was once heard fto remark, indicating with a wave of ?is hand the stately ironclads moving in and out of Spithead. Meanwhile, s he himself told us, he talked ships by day and dreamed ships by night, }whfle at home in Germany his favorte recreation was to sail a beautiful 0-ton model of a British {rigate on e Havel lakes near Potsdam.

FIND SCRIPTURE A PUZZLE ‘Youngeten Frequently Take Odd { Meanings From Even Simplest : Passages of the Bible. : Rk . ! “On whose side does the Lord altvays fight?” asked the Sunday school uperintendent, who had striven hard f‘.o impress a valuable lesson. ' “On the side of the Republicans,” guessed young Philander, whose fa:ther has been “in politics” for years. . The little boy who feared to enter n empty church because of the myserious “Zeal” that, according to scrip;tural imagery, ate up the Psalmist, the other little boy who did not want lto go to heaven because he liked to {eat and in heaven they “dine (die) no }more," the little girl who, being removed by main force from a '“zog,” wept because she had not been al’lowed to visit the “consecrated crosseyed bear” are well known to many, tbut they have a less famous contemporary and rival ih.the small maid ’who mentally translated “Pity my simplicity” in “Pity mice and plicity” and lat last inquired of her surprised fmother:" ! “Mamma, dear, what do the plicitys f!ook like? Are they little like mice ior big like bears?”

: Bad Custom in Industry. ¢ At least one state in this country hasg ftaken definite means to prevent tha ‘dangerous custom of ‘“shuttle Kkiss :ing,” a custom which results in dis !seminating tuberculosis and other idiseases. Similar action is now be. !mg sought in England. As reported yin the Scientific American, United :States Consul Ingram of ™~ Bradford lEngla,nd, refers to the threading oi ishuttles by the quick sucking motion 'known as “kissing the shuttle” and ta ‘the dangers resulting directly from :the inhalation of lint and dust and ’the further danger of infection as shutitles are interchanged. It appears that !disinfectants are employed and refer ;ence is made to the fact that one «weavers’ association in a report sugSgests that the real remedy is a selfithreading shuttle, while another as‘isociation expressed the opinion that 'a regulation making the use of self {threading shuttles compulsory could tbe made without any harm to the trade. While self-threading shuttles |have been devised, it would seem that {the field, in the event of compulsory jregulations, is sufficiently large to en-: {courage improvements. _

‘ Lit His Pants, Not Pipe. Dave Bosler, an employee of the tMathews Boat company at Port Clin: ton, 0.,, had a peculiar accident recently which might have proved seri{:\;s. Bosler was sitting on the pier ! d attempting to light his pipe with ‘a match, which he struck on his trousers. He had just had a grease spot emoved from the trousers with gas~‘ line, which was not thoroughly evaprated. When he struck the match the fireworks started. ‘ Bosler jumped into the river to ex. nguish the flames. He was slight. burned about the body and the ;trousers were reduced to an irreducis {ble fraction. : Progressive Office Boy. y The modern office boy is as progresive and up-to-date in his way as is s employer. “Mr. Benton,” recently remarked a presentative specimen of this geus, scornfully placing upon the head lerk’s desk a collection of small coins ound about the office! “here’s the oney you threw around tryin’ to ee if I was honest. But if you think 'm any kind of a thief or grafter, lease forget it! Gee! llf I'd only ved all the money folks have tried catch me wit’, why, I could buy s firm out!” ‘ :
