CHANGES HER BERTH

Boston, Mass, July 2.-Memories
of the good old days of century ago,
when the United States flag ruled
the seas, we're revived this week by
the removal of the frigate Consti-
tuition (Old Ironsides), the Oldest and
most famous ship of the United
States navy, to new berth In
Charlestown navy yard. Owing to
the vast amount of war work that is
being done at the navy yard 1t was
found necessary to remove the fam
Gus old ship from the dock where
she has been moored for some years
and tow her to a new berth in an
other quarter of the yard.
By a curious coincidence the re-
cent removal of the Constitution COIN
cided with the exact date, eighty-five
years ago, when she was first taken
into the new drydock at Charlestown,
the first ship to dock there. On that
occasion the docking of the ship was
witnessed by Vice-President Van Bu-
ren, Secretary of the War Lewis
Cass. Secretary of the Navy Levi
Woodbury. and other notables.
The shipyard where the Constitu-
ton was built, in 1898, occupied the
present site of the Charlestown navy
yard. Since she was first launched
the famous frigate has been rebuilt
several times. but the original model
tonnage and general appearance have
been preserved At one time the or
der to break her up was given by the
navy department, but it was with
drawn because of public sentiment

"None of your impudence,' retorts
the German. "And what do you send
me in exchange?"
Vegetables, cheese and milk. Also
meat, and a little of everything be

The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1918-07-02

One of the favorite tricks of the willy
Hun in the early part of the war, un-
til it became so familiar to seafarers
as no longer to be serviccable, was to
use an overturned boat in order to
cover up an anchored mine, so fixed
that directly the boat was attempted
to be righted the thing went off.
