Harry Pallas, a guard at the Chester
Shipbuilding Company's plant, has
pent twenty-one years In the United
States military service.
He served one enlistment each In the
Seventh, Eighth, Eleventh. Fourteenth
and Twenty-third Infantry. Fifth Artil
lery and Flrat Battalion of Engineers. In
that time he was stationed at Fort
Wadaworth and Governors Itland, N. Y.,
Fort Whipple, Aril , and Vancouver,
Wash.
Discharged from the service April 23,
1912, Pallas returned to his home In
New York and was guarding the docks
there for the quartermaster's depart
ment before he went to Chester.
Another man doing guard duty at the
me place Is O. W Thomas, of Lara,
Northumberland County, Vn. This man
stands guard at the main entrance and
one must bo ktioun to him to get
through the gate. Thomas Is also an
yeoman service man.
Just a few days befot the Maine was
blown up In Havana harbor he en
listed In the Fourth Coast Artillery
and was stationed at Fort McHenry.
Baltimore, and Forts Du!ont, Mott and,
Delaware. He was In the service until
August, 1900, but never saw foreign
tervlce.

keeping In Lara, Va , but soon tired of
this humdrum existence and went back
to Baltimore, where he worked for the
Baltimore. Chesapeake and Atlantic
Steamship Company as special ofHcer.
He went from there to Chester.
One might as well be careful In ap
proaching Thomas's gate without a pass
or button, fpr he Is no easy man to
brush aside with his 238 pounds
avoirdupois standing like a wall. No
body has yet tried to pus", him out of
the way. From 8 a. m. until 4 p. in.
Thomas stands with both eyes vvlde
open and very little suttee on either side
between him and the gateposts.

terest In the doings of the soldiers
guarding the Merchants' shipyard.
Here, as at other shipyard, changes
among the guards and their officers, es
pecially he latter, are of common oc
currence, and as a rule the newcomers
put "pep" Into the social life of the
place.
A shift has JuBt occurred In the per
sonnel of the troops ouartered at Har
rlman. and Company C, Twelfth Battal
ion. U. S. G , .National Army. Is now
commanded by Captain Joseph B. Much.
tv newcomer has served his country

shal of Washington. He nlso served In
the navy for five years, and during the
Spanish-American War was on the
United States battleship Texas -at the
destruction of Cervera's fleet. Much also
has had wide experience In sports and
was a member of the-Easton Athletic

Captain Much seeks the closest co
operation with the shipyard officials and
intends to see that every man In his
charge keeps up a neat appearance at all
times. Captain Much is planning many
amusements for the soldiers. There Is
to be a dance In the near future. Sev
eral of Harrlman's prominent women
will act as chaperons and the young

LAUNCH 15 SHIPS LAST WEEK
Tonnage of Vessels Built for Hur
ley's Board Now 1,500,000
Fifteen more vessels were launched
during the last week in shipyard
throughout the country. Ten of the
ships were of steel with a tonnage of
63,250. The Ave wood ships aggregated
19,200 tons
The Paclflc coast yards again led In
the number of vessels launched, seven
ships gliding down the ways in that sec
tion. The Great Lakes yards turned out
six ships and one each was launched
from a Oulf and Atlantic coast yard.
In addition eight other ships were
completed and delivered to the shipping
board. The Bethlehem Shipbuilding
Corporation at Sparrow's Point, Md
was the only eastern shipyard to deliver
ship. The recent deliveries bring the
number of ships built for the shipping
board to nearly 2B0 with a total tonnage
of approximately 1,600,000 tons.
BARGAIN BOAT IS TRICKY
Jinx

Action Into
Craft's Motor
Boys In the paint snop at me aer-
Muna h nvnrd nt liarriman nave a
motorboat that runs backward, and prob
ably would shoot In the same direction
if it had a mount of guns.
But It wasn't bought for making war.
It was "picked up" at a "bargain" sale
to give the painters a little fun in their
leisure hours, but to their dismay when
the engine was started the craft began
to back.
Time proved to all .outward appear,
ances that that is the only way It will
run, and those who are able to get any
fun out of running astern nre welcome
to It some say. The majority of the
boys 'are cured of bargain hunting.
ATHLETE IS CANDY EXPERT
Hsrrlmsn Stenographer Approves His
Judgment
Charlie Ooetx. one of the athletes at
the Merchants shipyard, at Harrlman,
spends a good deal of Bpare time in the
candy shops here and there. When he
Is not canoeing Saturday afternoons and
Sundaya he Is picking sweets, and one
of the -fair stenographers at the ship
yard Is the best Judge of his judgment.
The Coffee Club at the Merchants
yard has disbanded to save sugar, not
money, as has been reported.
It's been two days since the engineers
of the construction department at the
Merchants yard returned from their

takes most of their time to brush their
uniforms When not doing thai they're
straightening the part In their tialr so
as to look thir best.
Chester organizations are vying with
one another to make things pleasant for
the soldiers. The last affair was a dance
given at Liberty Hall by the Junior Cen
tury Girls' Club. Everybody went early
and stayed late, and an orchestra and
band, alternating, with only Ice water
and ice cream for stimulants, kept the
music going until the croud got to
gliding this way and that In their diz
ziness. Then the lights were turned out
and everybody had to go. But they had
a fine time.
Misses Kate Barker, Marlon McCloud,
Marjorle wlack, Sarah James. Louise
Evans, Helen Blckley and Marian Hanna
were among the girls who kept the sol
diers In happy mood In the waltzes and
fox trots Miss Kitty Jones missed this
affair through a previous dancing en
gagement of the Bon Air Country Club.
"NEVER AGAIN!" SAYS JIMMIE
Carrying Best Girl's Purse Not
Profitable for Boilermaker
"Jlmmle" Mehorter, assistant to
Charlie Morris, head of the Sun Ship
Company's engine and boiler shop at
Chester, says he will never hold another
girl's purse.
While calling on one of Germantown'p
fair daughters a few evenings ago,
"Jlmmle" was appealed to (It was a hot
evening) to carry the girl's pin money,
and ho carried it all the way to hla
home.
"It's hard to keep such little things
as that In mind when saying good-by to
the sweetest girl In tne world, saia ne.
There was only twenty-two cents In
the purse and It cost "Jlmmle" thirty
cents for a messenger the next day to
return It. But what's that?
