The ORIGIN OF SEA TERMS.

Sea terms, which 50 largely color the
English language in the coast districts
of England, may be divided into two
main classes ana are derived largely
from the lslanQs and peninSuias of Greece
and along the shores and shadows of the
North and Baltic seas. 1t was from
Greece that the arts of navigation spread
over the Mediterranean, while the Teuton-
ic sailors of the North carried their Ger
man speech along the shores of the At
laniic. Gradually these TWO Vocabularies
met and the result was Il mixture OF
both. Take for instance the old Euro
pean word for sea (mare in Latin, meer
in Germany which is preserved in the
poetic English word mere and in the
compound words mermaid, Windermere.
etc Such words as sea, sound, ship,
oar, mast, sail, steer, flood, cliff, strand,
storm, shower, hail, new, seal and whale,
were brought to England's shores by the
Angles and Saxons, who came in their
pirate ships. Anchor, borrowed from
the Roman ancora, came from the Medi-
terranean. Also port. borrowed from
the Latin Portus.
Why the left side of ship is designat-
ed as the port side is best explained per-
haps by the fact that in the DAYS when
LIE 6lSelHiS dPPoA aus w as VII LIE IlSUL
side of the ship it was convenient, in
order to keep this free, to have the port
or harbor on the left side when approach
ing it. So also starboard comes from
steer board, meaning the side Of the sh D
on which was located the steer" or
paddle that was used for steering. In
ancient times this was always the right
side, hence, starboard is synonymous
with right side on board ship. Other
Mediterranean words borrowed in the
period before the Norman Conquest are
lobster, limpet, trout, mussel and hulk,
which comes from the Greek holkas. The
term larboard, which was formerly ap-
piled to the left side of ship, it is held
has its origin from the verb to lade, or
the side on which the ship received her
cargo. In other words, the port side.
The reason few people think of these
words being other than of English origin
IS that English. sailors in adopting them
usually have given them an English
twist, so that they have largely lost their
identity.
These are only few samples of how
great a conglomerate the English lam
guage in regard to shipping is, but the
theme was quite thoroughly followed up
in a most interesting al tice in the Eng
lish Review for November, published in
London.

THE SIZE OF PASSENGER AND
FREIGHT STEAMERS.

So far as the passenger liner is con-
cerned at least, taking them by and
large, ships are markedly increasing in
size. Take the six greatest vessels of last
year for instance, and their gross tonnage
was just over $4,000 tons, where's the
six largest of 1911 measured on the aver
age 10000 tons. The largest ship of 1911
was the Titanic of As, 600 tons. and the
smallest the Drama of Y, 927 tons. In
1912, the largest was the lmperator of
81, 600 tons, and the smallest the Niagara
OF 13, 342 tons. When it comes to cargo
vessels, however, the growth seems not
to be so steady. For example, the aver
age size of vessels launched in one
British yard in 1911 was 4,72S tons, and
1912 it was 4, 499. In another yard the
average size Tor 1911 was 4,0o8 and 2, 99Z
in 1912, while in still another the average
size for 1911 was 5, l59, and 5, 479 in 1912.
Also the largest ship in 1911 was nearly
5000 tons gross, while in 1912 it was
only slightly over 5000 tons. This does
not seem to argue that the average size
OF freight steamers is upward, but that
rather vessels of this class are holding
at between A, 500 and 5000 tons.

DEAR OLD MAINE"
Tune: "Auld Lang Syne."
There is State to us most dear,
Tho many miles away
We dream of it the long night thro,'
We think of it by day.
For you, our Maine. our dear old Maine,
We fondly meet today,
That in our hearts your mem'ry dear
Shall firmly dwell for aye.
We point with pride to noted men
Who nailed their banners high,
And led the fight for truth and right
Their memory ne'er will die.
All over this broad land they live
Great men and women, too,
Who claim their birth in dear old Maine.
And give her credit due.
Your sons and daughters dear old Maine.
Have made their marks of worth,
And placed their names on history's page,
With noblest lives of earth.
So here for Maine, our dear old Maine,
We fondly meet today,
That in our hearts your men'ry dear,
Shall firmly dwell for aye.
