Naval Oadets Learn to Splice Ropes, Furl Salla, Etc, Leslie's Weekly. 4 It la probably not generally known how the United States government trains the youth upon whoae should era will rest the responsibility of main taining the high standard of the navy. His apprenticeship la not unlike that of any other young mam learning a trade; the fundamental principle be ing the proper kind of tools when and how to use them. A midshipman's tools, so to speak, are ships, thus rendering a thorough knowledge of a steamship and essen tial part of the training. This begins with leaaons In splicing hemp and wire rope, after which th young me i are given practice In handling saiia on the Indoor mast In the seamanship building, which la an exact counter part of the mlixenmast of tha tranl Ing ahip Severn and la 72 feet In height. , The midshipmen go aloft, furl, reef and set Balls, etc. in fact, go through the entire seamanship drill. A net Is spread at the foot of the mast for protection, as a fall on- the concrete floor would be far more aerloua than on the deck of a ahlp. Accidents, however, are Infrequent. Drills on the Severn begin early In the spring and continue throughout the cruise; which lasts from June un til September. The midshipman thus becomes accustomed to ahlp life. The work la hard and the discipline sever during these drills. There Is little tendency to shirk duty, and the fu ture admirals do everything on ship board, on deck and aloft, even to clearing up the deck and atowlng away the ropes . From a plrtureaque point of view aeamanahlp practice on the Severn surpasses all other similar exercises It aeems that pn shipboard the sense of the reality of the thing la ever present, and one accustomed to wit nessing these drills notices that on th deck of the old- Severn the middles are more active, more In earnest, and the manner In which they climb and to an old sailor. Eaoh man starts in with a practical aeaman's dutlea, and aa he continues his course Is advanced to the duties of the petty officers and later to those of the junior commissioned officers.
