"When I got Into some clothes and got out to see what the trouble was I was surprised to see dozens of sailors as busy as hees helping care for tlu wounded and making people as com- fortable as possible. It developed that our train was carrying two day coaches fllled with bluejackets, and a few sec onds after the 'crash came they were out of the cars and making them selves trenerallv useful. "Some time later representatives o the railroad company came through tne crowd settling with the passengers for slight damages. Some asueu pu, oin era S100. and checks for the anioun asked were forthcoming. One big man said that $100 would about square thlnifs with him. but added that the check shoyld be made out to "those sailors out there." Accordingly tne check was drawn In favor of the men who had been working like Trojans ever since the crash. KM "The sailors refused to accept the monev. "The check was then turned over to the lted Cross to be used In naval re lief work." Uncle 8am Returns Glasses.
