liner as soon as warships for the pur-
pose were available.
"The crew of the Olympic was mag
niicent." said one of the passengers.
"A warship's crew could not have acted
with greater courage and precision.
Everything was IN readiness for launch
ing the boats "a soon as the Olympic
was within reach Of the Audacious.
The liners crew was not daunted by
the high sea which was running. Some
of the bbats were capsized but the men
were ft. and ! understand that there
Was only one life lost In the sea-
While In the ylclnit. Of Lougn
Swilly the passengers OF the Olympic
saw many small boats sweeping for
mines, though with what s-ccess they
could not know. Many OF the passe %
gers expressed the belief that the sink
ing OF the AudaciOus possibly saved the
Olympic, which nigh. otherwise have
entered a mine field. Others held to
the theory that a submarine torpedoed
the warship, basing their opinion on
the fact thaS she was bundled astern
rather than forward. which would more
likely be the case n she had come in
contact with a submerged explosive.
The destruction Of the Audacious is
the most serious single loss sustained
by the British navy since the opening
Of hostilities. Only few British war
ships outrank her in size and fighting
equipment. She was a sister ship of the
King George V, Centurion and Ajax, all
commissioned in 1871 or 1912.
The Audacious had a displacement Of
$4,000 tons and was 500 feet in length.
Her armament consisted of ten l3.5-
inch guns, sixteen 4-inch guns, four g.
FOUNDERS, with three 2l-inch torpedoes
tubes. In her trials she developed a
speed of 224 knots an hour, being
slightly faster under trial than the
other vessels Of her class.

milking No dry feed should be given
the dairy COW until after milking, and
If the floors are quite dry they should
be sprinkled down lightly Neither
should roots or strong vegetables be
