MEMORIAL SERVICE
FOR LIEUT.. KALK
Solemn and Impressive Cere-
monies in the Naval Acad-
emy Chapel Yesterday.
YOUNG OFFICER A HERO
Victim of Torpedoed Jacob
Jones" Extoled in Splendid
Sermon by Chaplain
Evans.

Particularly solemn and impress
sive was the 1916 service at the
Naval Academy Chapel yesterday
morning, when memorial was made
of the late Lieutenant Stanton Fred
erick Kalk, L. S. n, who lost his life
when his ship, the L. S. S. Jacob
Jones, was torpedoed by a German
submarine on December 6.
The young officer was personally
known to a large portion of the con-
gregation, as he graduated less than
two years ago.
Two magnificent punches of Easter
lilies and white roses filled the altar
vases while a large bank of the same
flowers extended completely across
the altar.
Long before the service every seat
available for visitors was filed. The
mother of the young officer and other
out-of-town visitors were present, and
among the visitors were many army
officers, Lieut. Kalk being the son of
an officer of. the Regular Army.
The Chaplain preached a stirring
sermon, from the text Revelation, 21st
Chapter, 18th Verse: According to
the measure of a man." in which he
held The Pattern Man as one in
Whose footsteps all should follow.
He held up the naval ideals of
Honor, Duty, Courage, Service and
Self-Sacrifice, and referred most
touchingly to the unselfishness and
bravery of Lieut.. Kalk.
The young officer was officer of the
deck of his ship when she was tor
pedoed.
Though injured by the explosion of
the depth bombs as she sank, Lieut..
Kalk, against the protest of the rest,
left the raft on which they were, and
which was in danger of being swamp
ed by reason of overweight. and to
equalize the burden, swan to
another craft, cheering his men and
encouraging them to hold on.
They were rescued, but the effort
and exposure. in his weakened con-
dition proved too great for him, and
he died in the arms of a sailor. and
was buried at sea at IL p. NJ.
In the words of the survivors "He
was game to the last" and his hast
words were of anxiety for the safety
of the others on the raft which he had
left, and of Encouragement and cheer
for those who were with him.
His example" the Chaplain said,
should be an inspiration to all, and
the best memorial. a like faithfulness
to duty, whatever and wherever our
post"
The sermon was full of pathos as
well as patriotism, and it's teachings
were fellingly expressed. There were
many moist eyes in the congregation.
The music was especially apDropri-
ate, under the direction of Midship-
man W v Vose, choir leader of the
Midshipmen's choir at the Naval
Academy

THE SCIENTIFIC ARGUMENT.

temperance teaching into every public
