ORDER OF THE BATH
ANCIENT DISTINCTION
Is MUCH COVETED.
Its History and Construction
Sir Hundredh Anniversary
Celebrated.

tCopyr;xht. 1909. by the Brentwood Company
Very quietly. and without much pomp
or ceremony has the Order OF the Bath
5ust celebrated the 600th anniversary of
its foundation. 1t may be described as
the Ultima Thule OF every servant of the
British Crown, differing therein from the
Orders Of the Garter. the Thistle and st.
Patrick, about the distribution of which
there is, in the words OF Lord Palmers-
ton, mo question of any damned merit"
Whereas these three orders are bestowed
upon peers Of the realm IN recognition
OF the political influence which they are
able 10 exercise and of the support
which, through their territorial possess
eions, they are in a position to accord
TO the administration OF the day. the
Bath is restricted to distinguished Off
GERS Of the army and navy and to mem
bers of the Civil Service In one word. il
IS conferred exclusively for services to
the state. as distinct from services to
any mere political party that may hap
pen TO be in power.
IL is divided into two branches. namely.
the Military and Naval knights and the
Civilian knights. and each branch into
three classes, consisting of knights
Grand Cross, knights Commander and
Companions of the Order. The knights
Grand Cross or the order may not ex-
ceed fifty-five Of the military and naval
division and twenty-seven of the civilian
branch; and whereas the latter comprise
veteran ambassadors. such as Sir Frank
Iascelles and Sir Francis Bertie. the
famous administrators like Lord Cromer
and Lord Miner, the military and naval
knights of the first class are such men
as Admiral of the Fleet Sir Edward Sey-
nour. Field Marshal Sir Evelyn Wood.

Field Marshal Lord Wolseley

known AS knight commanders. may moi

services and los for the civil service. the
naval and military knights consisting
as rule, of lieutenant generals and of
vice-adnlirals. while the civil servants

years of service and the permanent

There have been attempts made to do
away with this abuse. which attracted
a considerable amount of attention at
the time when Field Marshal Lord Rob-

lutely refused to pay the fees. on the
ground that he could not afford them.

he embraced him, saying, BE thou a

The new knight was then taken back
to the chapel, where he offered his sword
on the altar. On leaving the chapel he
was met at the door by the Kings chief
cook, who stood there with his white
apron and sleeves. and a chapper in his
hand, and challenged the spurs of the
new knight. who had to redeem them
with noble in money, threatening them
nevertheless that if they should not be
true and loyal to the King it must be

THE GOLD COLLAR.

Besides this. the knights of the first
class-but they alone-reCeive on their
invcstiture long gold collar. 70 which
the badge of the order is suspended.
The collar is composed of nine imperial
crowns. alternating with eight enam-
elled combinations of roses. thistles and
shamrocks. the whole series being linked
together by seventeen golden knots.

NOT WHOLLY KINGS GIFT.

While the sovereign is free to confer
the Victorian Order upon any body whom
he pleases to single out for the distinc-
ton, without interference on the part
of the administration, he cannot bestow
the Order of the Bath without the ap-
pointment being countersigned by the
Secretary of State for War, who thereby
assumes responsibility for the nomina-
ton to Parliament. And this again en-
phasizes the fact that possession of the
Bath denotes service to the state rather
than royal favor.
Military men predominate in the order
over officers of the senior service, that is
to say, of the navy, by some 40 and
even so per cent. This is due to the fact
that while England has been almost con-
tinually engaged. during the last forty
or fifty years, in succession or small
wars on land, in addition TO the more
serious ones in South Africa, Afghanls-
tan, Egypt and the SOudan, there has
virtually since the bombardment of
Alexandria in 1882. been no opportunity
al sea for officers of the British navy TO
win that distinction in the face or the
enemy. which, according to the statutes
of the Order of the Bath, is a sine qua
non to membership thereof.
There is considerable difference be-
tween the insignia of the civilian and
the naval and military branches of the
Order of the Bath, although the red rib
bon and the motto, "Tria juncta in Uno'
are the same The badge of the military
knights of every degree since the begin
ming of the nineteenth century has con-
sisted of a gold and white enamelled
Maltese cross. with gold lions in the
four angles. in the centre the rose, the
thistle and the shamrock, as well as the
three imperial crowns. The civilian
KNIGHTS retain the old badge of the or
der. namely. a gold medallion, on which
a rose, a thistle and shamrock, Issuing
from a sceptre between three imperial
crowns. are encircled by an oval band
of gold. on which is inscribed the motto.
These badges are worn by the members
of the third class. attached 10 short
piece of ribbon fastened on 10 the LEFT
breast of the uniform; by the members
of the second class, suspended 10 RED
ribbon encircling the neck. and by the
knights of the first class, on the left hip.
fastened to a broad red ribbon crossing
the breast diagonally from the right
shoulder. The members of the first and
second class wear in addition thereto
star on the left breast. formed of rays or
flames of silver. with the badge as de
scribed above reproduced in the centre.

seems to have been derived from the i'm
rortant role played by the bath in the
ceremony of their initiation. for, accord
ing to Froissart, the knight on ar
rival at court, attended by his two
osquires, was undressed by them and
placed in a bath prepared for him by
the Kings barber, this functionary re-
ceiving the candidates clothes as his
perquisite The knight-elect was then
removed from the water with the words,

being clothed in rich apparel, he was led

kind to his friends aud 20 all men.
No bad man ever lived the life OF
Joseph Smith. The accusation that he
was an enemy Of mankind Us absolutely
false. II he did anything worthy OF
placing him among the enemies OF
civilization this should be pointed out.
Elder Thomas then went on 10 show
that at the age Of IA Joseph Smith
wanted 20 know which OF all the
churches In the world was right II is
well known that there were then. as
there are now, many conflicting sects,
all OF whom could not be right. IL any
Of them were This boy says he went
into the woods to inquire Of God which
OF all the churches were true, when
the Father and Son appeared TO him.
Because he testified that God had APP
peared 90 him. and angels also. he was
spoken evil Of by many OF those around
him. When he reached the age OF
manhood he founded a Church. though
the I.atter-day Saints believe Jesus
Christ is the founder of the Church
and Joseph Smith was only one Of the
instruments in the hands OF God in
working out his purposes. Joseph
Smith never claimed IL was his own
scheme II Is said that the organiza-
ton OF the Church IS the most wonder
ful In the world. II was not estab-
lished by Joseph Smith, but was
made known 20 MIN. ne says.
by God For this reason he Is spoken
of i'm terms Of dlsapprobation, much
IN the same way as the Savior
was condemned by the jews anciently.
Joseph Smith IL compared by some
with Dowie and others. II am willing to
compare every minute of his nfe with
any man on earth He is not an enemy
to civilization. He taught the truths
of the gospel of Christ and announced
the same teachings as the Savior pro-
mulgated anciently. Instead OF teach
ing that God was nonentity whose
circumference is everywhere and center
nowhere. Joseph smith taught that God
was an exalted being. Joseph Smith
held uD higher ideals for man, the child
Of God lie announced doctrine Of
evolution which Is one Of the grandcst
In the world He taught that man may
become as God IS. that the glory Of God
Is intelligence and that man is saved
no faster than he gets knowledge. Does
that make him an enemy to mankind?
He taught also that il was necessary
for a man to be baptized and obey 9TH
er principles In order to enter the
Church Of Christ"
Here Elder Thonas's voice failed him,
owing 10 a cold. and he was compelled
To close his remarks by abiding to the
statements made that Joseph Smith
was also an enemy to his country. The
belief of the Latter-day Saints that IL
was a country loved of God, and that
he inspired its Constitution. were spok-
On OF as proof that Joseph Smith was
not an enemy OF his country. He gave
the best that was in him for his coun-
try and. that was taken from the life of
Jesus christ"
The choir sang the anthem, The Lord
Is our refuge and strength"
Benediction was pronounced by Hugh
J. Cannon. president of Liberty stake.
