SILVER OF THE NAVY.
walden Fawcett Tells Of Beautiful
silver Services That Are Kept
en Uncle Sans BattleshiDs.

In Woman's Home Companion Wal
don Fawcett has an article on Pre-.
senting q Silver Service to Battle
ship" He not only describes some
of the most interesting pieces OF
plate, but goes into the details OF the
presentation. The following 10 an
extract:
"The method of procedure when a
sovereign state undertakes to procure
some handsome tableware for the
Jolly tars whom it regards as spe-
cially under its care is an interesting
one. It is customary, almost as soon
as the navy department has an
nounced that one Of the battleships
building or projected will bear the
name of certain state for her rep
resentstives in congress to hold a
meeting and launch project for pre-.
senting the vessel with q silver serv-
ice. Next prominent naval officers
have to be consulted with regard to
the number of pieces considered de-
sirable, and as to their design and I'm
ish. 1t is notable that the author
tiles consulted under such circum.
stances are certain to be almost
unanimous in their advocacy of sim.
plicity of design. The naval officers
are also very likely to suggest the
desirability of securing massive ware
and pieces large enough to prevent
their being easily lost. The regular
committee, which has meanwhile been
appointed, embodies this advice in q
circular, and invites all the leading
silversmiths Of the country to submit
competitive designs. Not infrequently
these sketches are all completed and
on exhibition long before the fund'
have been raised. Thus there is am
pie opportunity for the thorough dis
cussion of the artistic merit Of thu
various suggestions. Then comes
the award of the contract, and finally
after a year or two, the formal pres
entation ceremonies. which are at
tended by prayer and music and mucl
speech-ma<ing. The presentation ad
dress is made by the governor or som'
other state dignitary, ard the captain
commanding the new vessel endeav
ors to express the gratitude Of tn
ships company"

the American civilians and soldiers
who were in the islands. He is now
coming home, and upon his return will
doubtless be able to tell something OF
how soon a thorough census of the is
