Tb'e next day a German officer was sporUn« a beautiful shiner. The Britlah captain was enraged.

"Who dld that?" he rurfoustj- aslce1I tbe damaged N a,.zl.

One o~ uie younger British officers was named by the victim. and was called to tlWk immediately.

"You a r e n disgrace to Hi:s Majji:j:;:;tv's Na.v'},! What have ron to a.a.y in

"Well. atr, t!his morntng, a~ I carne up OD deek. I met tht, chap behind the aft turret. Before I had. a. chance to say even 'Good Mornln~' he satd to me:

.. 'God dill-mn the King!'

"Well. I controlled my~elf. and said nothing. Tben he came closer to me, stuck Me. race up to mtne. and yelled: .. 'To hell with tbe Quee.n!'

nTho.t was almost Impossfble to bea.r, hut sun I remembered tha.t I &111 a. British otrlcer and controlled myselt. But when he walked over to the parapet, grinned at me contemptuously. and spat into Our ocean! That err, was tOD much. [t was then that [ lost my temper!,"--Charla8. Derrtcott,
