Navy boys to the rescue : $b or, Answering the wireless call for help
Davidson, Halsey
United States. Navy -- Juvenile fiction; World War, 1914-1918 -- Naval operations -- Juvenile fiction
Altogether, both Philip Morgan and George Belding had become quite happy
and content when the _Colodia_ finally signaled the _Redbird_ good-bye
and turned her prow north once more. She had been ordered to follow the
captured raider into Hampton Roads, there to refit.
Nevertheless, as America’s activities in the war--especially her naval
activities--were increasing rather than diminishing, the Navy Boys did
not expect to be idle, even if the _Colodia_ was laid up for a while.
“No rest for the wicked,” quoted Al Torrance, wagging his head.
“Oi, oi!” cried Ikey. “You know you are not looking for a rest, Torry.”
“Seems to me,” Belding said, “that it will be rather nice to walk on the
streets once more.”
“Bet we’ll all be land-sick when we get ashore,” grinned Frenchy
Donahue. “How ’bout it, Whistler?”
Whistler said, thoughtfully: “But wouldn’t it be nice if we could have
had our leave ashore at Bahia, with the girls?”
“Wow, wow!” shouted the Irish lad.
“He’s hopeless,” groaned Ikey Rosenmeyer. “He is even worse than Frenchy
ever was. Why, he can’t keep his mind off those girls at all!”
But the older lad only grinned. It was small matter to Whistler Morgan
whether they tried to worry him or not. Lilian Belding was certainly a
pretty girl!

12mo, cloth, illustrated and with colored jacket
The true story of the American Jackies of to-day--clean-cut, brave and
always on the alert. The boys join the navy, do a lot of training, and
are then assigned to regular service. They aid in sinking a number of
submarines, help to capture a notorious German sea raider, and do their
share during the taking over of the enemy’s navy. A splendid picture of
the American navy of to-day.
