He was accompanied by his mother, who will visit here fpr several weeks, when both will return to Illinois.

Richardson of the local Naval Recruiting Office, "every ship in the Navy has its own distil lery. Sounds bad, doesn't it. But all it's used for is to distill water: It's part of the engineering plant. You see, our Navy spends most of its time floating around in salt water, and salt water will put a ship's boil ers out of commission mighty quick. You can't always be running to port to get fresh water cither, so they put a lot of salt water into an evaporator, a big tank with steam pipes running through it. These pipes heat the salt wnter until it boils, and changes to steam, which passes through pipes into a distiller, leaving the salt be hind. All the distiller docs is to cool the steam until it changes to fresh water. Good drinking water, too they use boiled water in the hospitals, I hear. Takes out all the germs. That is the reason why sailors are so healthy. "I was showing an old lady vis itor around i,iy ship one day when she saw the name 'distiller' in the engine room, she started to boil over herself. Wouldn't lot me explain, and left the ship saying she would write to the Navy department about how all the sailors were making whiskey." : : i if.
