PHOTO OF MR. WHITE AND 50 MEN EMPLOYES
Mr. Albert von Kamp, who was as
close to Mr. J. B. White as any man

for the deceased Augusta merchant
prince for a great many years, rising
from the bottom rung of the ladder to
the top in tlit White establishment, has
a picture of Mr. White and 50 of his
male employes, taken in 1885, 32 years
ago. Mr. White is in the center and the
others are grouped around him. He did
not look in 1885 as he did when he left
Augusta nearly ten years ago, being then
a man ill the prime of life with a flowing
black mustache. He had a keen eye
and wan ever alert to business opportuni
ties. Mr. White was held in the highest
esteem by those who worked for him.

GOOD FOOD COMBINATIONS
How To Use "Left Overs” and Save Fuel and Labor at
the Same Time
uuashinaton. D. C. —Numerous palatable
combinations of two or more food ma
which can be prepared oy me
housewife with but little trouble '"‘hem
selves will supply the major part of a
well-chosen meal. Such combinations
should be used very frequently to sirn
jlify and make more economical the ®erv
Ing of a rational diet for the family, say
specialists of the U. 8. Department of
Agriculture. Combining left-overs into
a palatable dish, for example el T ec ‘"f
considerable saving in material, in fuel,
and in the labor of preparing meals and
of Cleaning cooking utensils and dishes,
r.ood use thus is made of food which
ndght otherwise be wasted, when one dish
is prepared, cooked, and handled, instead
of several.
The character of any one of the daii>
meals should be determined by that of
the other meals that are served. A light
breakfast and a light supper or luncheon,
for instance, usually make desirable a
heavier dinner. In some families the pref
erence may be for a hearty breakfast and
dinner and a very light supper, and so
on through a considerable range of in
dividual tastes. If the meal Is to be a
light one, the combination dish together
w*th the bread and butter, which usually
accompany American meals, maj be all
that "is wished. If the combination dish
forms the central part or a heartier meah
it Is In accordncae with our usual food
custom" to serve with it in addition to
bread and butter, such foods as garden
vegetables, fruits (fresh or cooked), and
simple desserts, flood planning necessi

order that all the varied nutritive sub

The following are some suggestions for
a few of the many nutritious combina

Battleship Texas In The War Zone
Lyon Describes His Transport
to Uncle Sam’s Battle Fleet
In First Article Written
on Warship Guard
ing Coast
EDITOR’S NOTE—C. C. Lyons,
staff correspondent, has been a blue
Jacket aboard the super-dread
naught Texas with the Atlantic
fleet, since he finished his train
ing course at the Norfolk naval
training station. In thiß and other
articles to follow, Lyons tells of
his life aboard ship.
3Y C. C. LYON.
I’m a regular bluejacket now—aboard
the super-dreadnaught Texas, con
sidered by many naval experts the
world’s greatest fighting ship!
The strict war censorship forbids
divulging the whereabouts of the
Texas. But, we’re "some
where on the Atlantic.
It was a red-letter day for me —
Just as It is for all other naval recruits
the day I was told at the Norfolk
training station that I had been as-,
signed to "sea duty.”
Eleven of us were in the party.
Captain John Dayton, commandarYt
at the Norfolk station, gave us sonj.e,
parting advice. .. .
“Now, boys,’’ he said in a fatheMy
way "don't forget that the most Im
portant thing for a man aboard fihip
is to do what he Is told to do by his
superior officers. Go aboard with a
determination to win every proiy.otlon
open to you.”
We went to ma on a great, fU'moitod
oil tunker that was taking oil out to
the Atlantic fleet.
It was a long trip.
' Every time an officer on tlfie tanker
would yell below, "All hands on deck,”
some regular member of the crew
would be sure to pass the command
along to us recruits, with: "'/’hat means
you fellows; get ft hustle csi.”
We recruits would hurr// up on deck
and help roll barrels, puH ropes and do
other odd Jobs.
After awhile we dlucfiyvered It is a
favorite pastime with old salt* to let
recruits do their work, for them!
The fellows who would send us on
deck to work alwayif remained below
and played cards.
Even the ship baiK>er took advantage
of our Ignorance.
"You fellows wot/ldn’t dare report to
the fleet without new haircuts and
Clean shaves,” hy told us "They’re
mighty strict abGut such things.”
fir, |,e shaved f.nd cut the hair of all
eleven of us, a/nd only the especially
strong charaet/ira among us escaped
without shnm/poos, hair tonics and
toilet waters.
Night camfe on, with the tanker
pounding out to sea at about 18 knots
an hour.
The wind had risen until at times It
almost bl</w a hurricane; arid occa
sionally a, wave would break high up
against tl:e ship's side and splash the
top deck, Rsln was falling.
"We'll, reach the fleet about 9 o'clock"
( overlyeard one officer tell another.
"It's a rotten night to transfer those
new men to their ships, Isn't It?"
“Pretty risky with the sea running
the Way It Is. Maybe we can keep
them here until morning.” the other
repy.-efl.
I had visions of being set off the

SCRUBBING DAY ON THE BATTLESHIP’S DECK. MEMBERS OF THE CREW HAVE TO KEEP THE GIANT
tanker In the blackness of the night In
a row boat, and then hunting around
In the open sea until we could find the
Texas!
I didn’t know at the time that all the
transferring from one ship to another
Is done In Immense motor boats, prac
tically unsinkable, and capable of car
rying 195 men.
After supper aboard the tanker wo
recruits sat around and tried to make
conversation, but the thought upper
most In the mind of every mother’s
son was: "Will they transfer us to tin
fleet tonight? ’
The old sailors added to our misery
with outlandish talks of sea horrors.
It was just such a night as this that
a small boat In which I was pulling
an oar capsized off the coast of Cuba
three years ago, and I was the only
man who reached shore," said one par -
ticularly proficient liar.
About 9:50 the call came below:
"The fleet.”
Everybody scurried up the hntches.
There, straight, ahead of us, appar
ently some miles away, was the At
lantic fleet.
A dozen powerful searchlights from
the battleships were playing on the oil
tanker, and < very once In a while we
sailors would get the blinding flash' -
From one of the ships In thh fleet,
presumably the flagship, the wireless
was flashing messages.
•They're talking to us," ssld a sailor
near me who was an amateur radio
operator. "I Can’t make out the nurne
of this ship.”
"What are they saying?” a lot of the
fellows asked him In chorus,
"Can’t rnulu It out; It’s In code,” he
said.
I’retty soon an offler r crime up.
"You recruits won’t he transferred
to tin l fleet until inorntug," he an
nounced. "We have onders to keep
you here tonight.”
Three cheers! and then three more!
