SHIPS THAT FATTEN SAILORS
1 •
Modern "Tankers" Are Now Blamed
for Added Weight Taken On
by the Seamen.
Shipping experts continue to argue
regarding the advantages of oil fuel
over coal. At present the question
is occupying the attention of medical
men.
The adverse effect of oil fuel upon
such surfaces as steel, canvas, rope
and other rflipping accessories are
widely known; ships’ doctors are now
divided’on the question as to whether
it is harmful or beneficial in its effect
upon sailors, a writer in London Tit
Bits states. %
Sailors on oil-fed vessels are fatter
and plumper than those who work on
coal-fed ships. Some naval surgeons
declare that the fattening effect is pro
duced by the slight fumes exuded by
the dormant oil fuel; others ridicule
the suggestion, and maintain that the
former are fat simply because they
have less work to do.
“Coaling ship” is one of the finest
exercises in the world for reducing
superfluous flesh. It is hard work that
has to be maintained at high speed all
day. Ships vie with each other In get
ting their coal aboard in record time,
and even after the operation is finished
the sailors still have a few more
ounces of avoirdupois to work off in
cleaning up the mess below decks.
Usually three days are occupied in
cleaning a vessel after a bout of “coal
ship.” On the other hand, oil-fuel
ships perform the task In about three
hours.
Doctors nre asking themselves: "Is
the fat a healthy fat, or an injurious
parasitic growth?” If a hammock is
splashed with oil fuel, all the scrub
bing and boiling fn the world will not
prevent a hole from appearing in it;
nhd If it eats through double-ply can
vas, what will oil fuel accomplish in
the case of human beings?
"Tanker” hands are noticing that
after two or three voyages they begin
to put on flesh.
FAMED FOR ITS MARASCHINO
Dalmatian Town of Sebenico Really
Has Little Right to Other
Claims to Honors.
Sebenico vainly boasts of being the
Roman colony Slcum, where Cladiua
quartered his veterans, and so styles
Itself in public inscriptions and Latin
documents. But Slcum stood farther
south, near Salona, at n spot still
marked by Roman remains.
It is to be feared that Sebenico
had a sadly ignoble origin, says the
Manchester Guardian. The name is
said to be derived froni a word that
means the fort from whence bandits
watched the sea for ships which they
attacked and plundered. The little
Dalmatian pirates’ lair remnined quite
unknown until selected in the early
Middle ages by Croatian kings for their
favorite residence. Apart from pos
session of a picturesque land-locked
harbor, the only cathedral in the world
built entirely of stone gnd metal, and
the nncestral house of the Orsini, Se
benico hns few claims to distinction.
However, by some people Sebenico
will always be held in high honor
for being the place where they make
maraschino, an insidious liquor dis
tilled from small blqck cherries.
The Wrong Saint.
Childhood’s propensity for getting
names mixed was well Illustrated a
Sunday morning or two ago when
little Richard, on the way to Sunday
school with his mother and sister,
met' another little boy afflicted with
St. Vitus’ dance. '*•
Richard was deeply Impressed by
the Incident and asked his mother
what was the matter with the little
boy.
‘‘Poor child,” the sympathetic moth
er replied. ‘‘He has St. Vitus's dance.”
Back at home, Richard rushed In to
tell his father of the Incidents of the
morning and closed with the re
mark :
“And—and—and we saw a poor lit
tle boy who jerked all over. He had
the Ritcomb Riley.’* s

The Man in tne Moon.
Observations made from August,
1920, to February, 1921, by Prof. Wil
liam Henry Pickering of Harvard, who
is one of the world’s leading astron
omers and an authority on lunar and
Martian plienomepa, tend, he asserts,
to prove beyond doubt that life exists
on the surface of the moon. The
fu<J?es9or bases his assertions on a
series of telescopic photographs of a
crater with a circumference of 37
miles. Hundreds of photographic re
productions have, it it stated, proved
Irrefutably the springing up at dawn,
with an unbelievable rapidity, of vast
fields of foliage, which come into full
blossom Just as rapidly, and which
disappear In a maximum period of IT
days. The plates also show that great
blizzards, snowstorms and volcanic
eruptions are frequent. “We find,”
says the professor, “a living world at
our very doors where life in some re
spects resembles that of Mars—a
world which the •astronomical profes
sion has in past years utterly negle ted
and ignored.”
Ship Has 18,000 Spoons.
We may be cutting down our war
ships. There is no reduction in our
liners. This applies to size as well as
to number.
Take the White Star liner, Majestic.
The largest steamer in the world is
aptly named! Its tonnage ifj 56,000
and it is to carry 14,000 Knives, 10,000
forks 18,000 spoons, 45,000 piecA of
plate in all, 178,000 pieces of linen
and 270,000 pieces of crystal and
glassware.
When one adds it cargo, crew and
passengers, one’s brain almost stag
gers at the responsibility which will
rest on the shoulders of the captain.

Shoved Off.
The Chasseurs Alplns, those classy
French fighting men who helped train
the “marines who first went to France,
could never quite get accustomed to
some of the marine corps lingo. One
of the Blue Devils had learped the
meaning of the sea-going phrase
“shove-off,” but when he had his first
chance to use it lie was—as the say
is—not there.
“Hey, French,” said a Leatherneck,
“have you seen our lieutenant
around?”
“Oul, monsieur, oui,” said the poilu,
struggling to remember the elusive
phrase, “he have—wliat you call
pushed over.”—The Leatherneck.
