Rooseuelf Memorial

''The Making of Larry" is the
play the Scouts OF Richmond are

rial. The following play committee

ing has been changed. The meet
ing hour after this will be Z O'Clock

Dear Aunt Polly:
Hare the Aerrimac and the Mon
itor been preserved?
MIRIAM DIIKS.
Dear Miriam:
Thank you for your note. I was
50. happy and SO surprised to re-
ceiye it. No. the ships you speak
OF are, unIuckily, not in existence.
The Merrimac, the armorcd ship
Of the south, was sunk by the Con-
federates after the evacuation Of
Norfolk on May 3, 1862, to prevent
the Yankees from getting hold Of
1t. The Monitor. the North's ar
mored ship. was sunk in . gale on
Cape HattcF1s on Dec. 81, 1862.
Wouldn't it be nice il they were
still living and II we could point
to them and say, See. there are
the first armored ships Of the
United States"
Have you been studying the story
of these ships at school?
AUNT POLLY.
Dear Aunt Polly:
How long does it take a ship to
60 from France to America?
JULIA r. BURR.
Dear Julie:
The average time it took before
the war to come to the United
States from France was week,
but now 1t is all changed. Many
different routes are taken by the
different ships and delays OF all
kinds arise. but perhaps we can say
that the average time Is two weeks
at present, for a ship to come here
from France.
The George Washington in which
President Wilson and his family
are returning is expected to make
the trip in ten days, which is about
as short a time as ship can cross
the ocean in war times.
