Screw propellors, like most other in
ventions, had great difficulty in getting
recognition from authority. For in
stance. Sir William Symonds. surveyor
and principal designer to the British
admiralty, could not be brought to be-
lieve in them. He declared that
steamships of any sort were
'monstrous" and that the screw was
ampossible. The day came when
choice between paddle-wh and
screw propellers had to be made. The
navel authorities tied two ships stern
to stern. and when the screw propelled
vessel had triumphed over the paddle
steamer in this ludicrous tug of war
the lords of the admiralty felt justified
in modelling the British navy anew.

honors which he loved 50 well. Great
was his surprise one day when the
sentinels took absolutely no notice of
him. Burning with Indignation, he
rushed to his father and told him this
terrible fact with the utmost excite
