Show oo ENGLISH TEA 1 BLACK COFFEE "Let me sit on a home-made couch and eat a home-made cookie," shouted a happy sailor as a naval invasion of the canteen was made this morning, upon the arrival of the 10:10 west bound train at the station. "I smelled this place. five miles out, and my mouth's been watering ever since," greeted another. Most of the boys who stopped over were sailors who had seen real service serv-ice and had been across many times. Some were going home for good, others oth-ers just to be assigned to some boat now stationed at San Pedro. The canteen saved on sugar and cream this morning for some unknown reason for sailors want "strong black coffee" when they can't get "English tea." And "English tea" can't be had while in uniform. And when the train left, coast bound, hats were doffed and a rousing cheer was given the canteen at Ogden, "Tho best place on either side." ; oo |
