ORIGIN OF THE GUN SALUTE
inspired by Desire of One Nation to
Show Friendllness for Ships
of Another.

The origin of the salute with guns
is supposed to have been inspired by
the desire of one nation to make
show of friendliness for the ships of
another. In the old days of smooth
bore and Misunderstanding cannon 1t re-
CURED several minutes to load and
fire the gun, and this lapse of time
was meant to indicate friendship
trust in the mission of the warship of
another power
In the beginning of the salute in the
United States the one for the Union
gave one gun for each state. Finally
the national salute was fixed at TWEEN
ty-one guns. The president as well as
the presidents of foreign republics
and sovereigns of foreign states are
saluted with twenty-one guns The
salute for ambassadors of this or 9th.
er nations is nineteen guns. The vice
president of the United States also is
entitled to ntneteen-gun salute.
Admirals and cabinet members are
entitled to seventeen guns, ministers
plenipotentiary and vice admirals ff-
teen, and the commanding officer of a
ship of war seven.
A few centuries ago England, claim
ing supreme empire of the seas, re-
CURED the warships of other nations
to lower sail on meeting an English
man O. war. This custom long ago
disappeared, although small sailboats
of English warships still let go their
