Day Of Glorious
Memories

TA7 lTH the civil war experiences
" merely matter of fragrant,
yicarious memory to most of
us, it is inevitable that the celebration
Of Memorial day should take on an en-
tirely different character as the years
go by than was the case at the moment
OF its institution. when poignant
sense Of personal losses pervaded the
ceremonies and determined their place,
the cemetery, and the drift Of the adj
dresses, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
This is natural change, and, with
the assuaging of grief, the day has be-
come one of glorious rather than sor-
row fraught memories, in which the
sacrifice of the individual on both sides
has been merged into the general sig
nificance of the day as commemora-
ton of principles which ever rise above
the accidents Of time and the plans
and purposes of men. In other words,
the day, quite rightly, is given over to
searching Of the hearts as to wheth-
er we understand the lessons of the
past while enjoying, in peace, those
things won by the men who were will
ing to do and die that the Union might
prevail.
The frank transformation of Memo
rial day from ''holy day. to a "holi-
day" has been a marked feature of
such commemorative occasions in all
times. Owing to a misunderstanding
of national as we'll as human psychol-
ogy, however, some complaint over this
phase Of Memorial day celebra lions
has been voiced, but this is narrow
and mistaken viewpoint. For, indeed,
historic analogies are all one way.
The Greeks and the Romans glorified
their heroes by funeral games. This
was also Scandinavian custom and
is rooted deeply in all human expert
ence in all peoples, primitive and civ
ilized. Hence the fact that Memorial
day surpasses all others as "day of
sports is not at all inconsistent with
true and abiding realization of it's es-
sential solemnities.
Youth, clarifying in it's strength, rep
resenting the physical prowess Of the
nation, can consecrate itself in no bet
ter way to those principles for which
the heroes of the civil war fought than
by it's recourse to field and track and
water course at a time Of the year
when nature itself is signifying it's re-
birth and is in the full flush of it's orig
inal and seasonal vigor. The lessons
Of the day are not curtailed by the fact
that the holiday character Of the occa-
sion brings out millions to celebrate in
merrymaking it's glorious memories.
They also serve who are cheerfully
adding to the vital resources of the
living nation as well as they who sor-
row by the tomb.

THE first to fight! The neat, TRIM

pride of their officers and crews

The fact that our war vessels, man

to the American heart than anything
else that has happened.
That torpedo destroyers are operat-

1iately forthcoming at a meeting Of
the American Chamber of Commerce.
Several American firms subscribed
$500 each, bringing the fund up to $15,-

1t was decided to provide two build

movement is also on foot to secure a
clubhouse suitable for the needs of all
American sailors and soldiers who are
likely to visit London during the war.
Our Seamen No Strikers.
At the American consulate it was
stated that at no time of the submarine
campaign have there been more Amer
lean seamen than are now traversing
the barred zone, and that there had not
been one case where any of them had
sought to leave their vessels
Fully 5000 American seamen have
been through the zone in recent months,
and many have been on ships Of other
nationalities which have been torpe-
doed or mined. In several instances
American seamen have been in three
torpedoed vessels.
One Of the most remarkable phases
Of the development Of the American
mercantile marine is the adaptability
Of the American negro as q sailor.
Ships masters have declared them to
be among the bravest Of crews under
the most trying situations.
American naval authorities quite ap-
prove Of the system adopted by the
British admiralty as to concealing the
number Of U boats captured or sunk
and have adopted it in regard to the
operations Of American warships. This
system, Of course, also covers the meth
DDS by which they are dealt with, which
all form part Of an extensive scheme
constantly being altered and improved.

thereafter.
There does not appear to be any pres
ent necessity for heavy craft in addi
ton to the British and French fleets.
Destroyers and cruisers are holding the
lines against the submarines, while the
big ships are held in readiness to meet
any attempt by the Germans to claim
place upon the surface of the sea.
The American battle fleet stands as an
additional line behind the mighty ar
mazda the allies can fling into such a
fight.
Secretary Daniels had not planned to
announce at this time the fact that our
war craft are actively cooperating on
the other side Of the Atlantic. The
press dispatch from London that the
British admiralty had made the an
nouncement was the direct cause of his
making the fact public.
The policy of secrecy was due to the
remote danger that the German admi-
rally might receive the news in some
way before the destroyers reached the
other side and pick off one or more of
them en- route.
All officials and naval experts have
not been agreed as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of Withholding this news from publica-
ton. Some have felt that publication
of the fact would have had tremen-
dous sentimental effect in this country,
in England and France and especially
in Germany and throughout the central
empires.
For Comfort of Men.
Immediately after the American resi-
dents Of London learned that Ameri-
can warships were operating in Brit
ish waters they began to discuss meas
ures for the welfare Of the sailors. At

Sims Stands High In Navy.

Admiral Sims, who commands the
American destroyers in European wa
tiers, Is considered one of the most eff
Gent officers in the service. He is a
native Of Canada and graduated from
the Naval academy in 1880.
After service in all parts Of the
world, including intelligence duty as
naval attache at Paris and Petrograd,
he became inspector of target prac-
t1ce Of the Asiatic feet on board the
former cruiser New York now the
Saratoga) In 1902. Then he met Sir
Percy Scott, the best authority on gun
merry In the British navy, and as re-
suit obtained for use in the United
States navy the subcaliber method Of
target practice that brought American
gunnery to the front.
Admiral Sims was on duty at Wash
ington from 1902 to 1909, under the
Roosevelt administration, as general
inspector in charge Of target practice
and brought American naval gunnery
to . high plane Of efficiency. He was

ent with the full and complete protec-
ton Of our own coast and territorial
waters"
Every officer and man on board the
swift American vessels is a veteran of
the destroyer fotilla. Life on a de-
stroyer is about the toughest kind Of
work which sailor can encounter on
a surface boat
There is feeling in naval circles that
some American destroyers participated
In the raid on the German submarine
base at Zeebrugge, Belgium, few days
ago.
From this time on the fight against
the submarines will be one continuous
offensive. 1t is planned to give the u
boats no rest day or night.
No announcement will be made as to
the bases from which the American de-
stroyers are operating-whether they
are British or French or both.
''The important thing is that they
are in the thick of the fight against
the submarines" said one naval off,
Ger in close touch with the situation.
Furthermore, our destroyers are very
busy, and they are going to be buster.
They are over there to get the Ger
man q boats, and they will land lot
of them"
1t is not expected at the navy de-
partment that the aggressive cam
paign now being carried on win entire
~ clear the seas Of submarines. If all
the submarines are driven to cover
they undoubtedly will come forth
again at the first favorable opportuni-
ty. It will become increasingly difficult
for them, however, to leave and enter
the North sea as the number of swift
vessels In the allied patrol fleet is in
creased.
Most Efficient Foe.
Destroyers have proved the most ef-
fclent foe Of submarines. Their value
has been so great that all possible ef-
fort has been concentrated by the navy
department upon adding to the Amer
lean fotillas in the shortest time.

Eventually all the American destroy

of the Atlantic will be sent to the war

plans agreed upon at conferences held

1T is not surprising that the first YES
sells to see active service are the de-
stroyers The North sea is infested
with German submarines, and it has
been demonstrated in the past that de-
fensive operations are of little avail.
Naval experts agree that to wipe out
the submarine peril it will be neces-
sary to conduct an extensive offensive
warfare and strike the hornets at their
nests. In order to accomplish this the
sea is filed with vessels of all types,
armed to fire at once on submarine,
and from now on the waters adjacent
to Great Britain are going to be un.
healthy for enemy submarines
