Itis a that Ufodn a warship dunna orulso what CaptainIt I His treatment ofwhat renders of cornfortablo or uncomfortable a torment orpleasure

To realize the Influence ot the Caplain the naty simply to roawhat Medical Inspector H E Ames of thnavy has to taper whichhas Juibeen published by the Naval Institute H

describes three praises thathe made at In-

tervals of eight and ho mentions thIncident or the cruises to show what ln-

proveraenta boyd boon rondo In the treatmerit of our sailors

The first cruio woapnii black ship DrAmes does not mention numos Ho saytie rules and regulation woreout to the letter

The vessel to keelShe would have Impressed any one not atInched to her as a model Her appoarono-wasyachtllkeout comfort of and men

an unhappy ship becausewas ruled with a rod of The men rooelved no consideration from the Captaliand the officers In nearly tlusame fashion all w6rk and no play

Describing the situation on tho vesselDr Ames says

There was no Joyous laughter everwithin hor nombro there wad no

skylarking about her docks no music

either or instrumental ever brokethe stillness of the evening air either hiport or at sea No pete were about the shipbelonging to the men

The dally Inspections were superb wFar as bright clean arms tidy uniformsperfect decorum and sllenoo were conrented Look In the faces of the crowThey were clean they were Intelligent butthere wes not face that bor-ei soft expression The quick momentary

leld on board Were the officers happyJo they were a discontented lotrlth the happy ship I laid loft

Dr Ames asks what was the cause of allhisand he answers his bysaying-

It was simply a applicationf a good set of regulations by a narrowalnded man A little on the part-

f the Captain a little consideration forin offlonrs and by thenk for the men anowledgo that the Admiral and Jack havequal claims on the Almighty that theyre built the same have the sameeelings appetites In fact the same

were locking In other wordshad been used and properly

pplted the ship could naii been A pleasantme

Eight years later Dr served onnether ship and she was painted whiteho ship was very like the black one Thererere the same dlsollpluyt and the same kindif crew but there was a mighty contrastetween this cruise sect the one the blackhip I r Ames puts the contrast in this

The cheerful voices of the men wereeardln vibrating in the airatural hearty of laughter would
