Battleship Sponsor at Home

Miss Esther Ross, sponsor for
the battleship Arizona, has re-
turned to her home in Prescott.
Her four weeks experiences in
cluded besides the christening a
visit to the home of Thomas A.
Edison and a reception at the
White House. She says she was
thrilled as she smashed t h e
water and champagne against
the vessels side but not fright
ened.
At the reception, a photograph
was taken, and President Wilson
graciously stood before the young
sponsor, who remarked, rather
shyly, Il suppose you are SUBJ
jected to this ordeal rather too
frequently" 7 h e president
smiled and said, well, yes, but
fortunately, it's painless.
When Edison was introduced
to Miss Ross, he shook his head
with smile and remarked, "Ho-
ly smoke! All the way from
Arizona to christen a battleship!"
