COLUMBIA SAILOR
HELPED RECEIVE
GERMAN Fl0TlLA
BOATSWAlN'S MATE JOHN TROT
WOOD MOORE, JR., ABOARD
THE ARKANSAS.
II WAS A GRIM CEREMONY
Allied Ships Were Cleared for Ac-
ton and Ready to Blow Enemy Out
Of Water at lnstant's Notice II Any
Trouble Had Started.

There was no shouting or noise OF
any kind as the surrendered German
flotilla steamed between two long
lines of American and British war
ships in the Firth of Forth last Novem-
Der to strike their flags and be for
ever removed as menace to the free
dom of the seas. The allied seamen
were ready for battle on the instant
if any trickery should have been at
tempted by the Huns. 1t was grim
occasion. The celebrating was done
during the week of the armistice
when the American sailors were given
shore leave and later when the bat
tie fleet returned to New York and
was given such reception as was
never before accorded conquering he
roes. That is the way the end of the
war came to John Trotwood Moore,
Jr., -Boatswain's Mate on the Super
dreadnaught Arkansas, one Of the
ships in the American Sixth battle
squadron which took part in the cere-
mony Of receiving the surrendered
German vessels. He is now at home
on fifteen day furlough and has some
interesting stories to tell about the
activities of the American navy dur
ing the war.
There were five American battle
ships in the -flotilla of allied vessels
that received the Huns. They were
formed in two long lines through
which the German vessels passed
with their guns placed fore and aft,
or out of position for battle, while
the allied ships were manned and
ready for battle. They could have
blown all of the surrendered vessels
out of the water with one broadside
if there had been an occasion for dis
play of their craftsmanship. In the
German f1otilla there were ten bat
tleships, six battle cruisers and fifty
destroyers, all of the most modern
type and in fairly good condition.
Admiral Hugh Rodman was in COM
mand Of the American squadron and
went aboard some of the German ves-
sells after they had anchored Amer
lean officer stated that the German
seamen appeared to be in good con-
dition, but the ships were dirty and
ill-kept. Mate Moore said that view
ing the surrendering vessels from the
Arkansas as they passed he had the
same opinion of their condition. But
he spoke in the highest praise of the
German navy and the ability of Ger
man seamen before the war. 1t was
one of the best navies in the world,
he said, and it was in manner
sad sight to see it surrendered with
out a fight
Mate Moore will never forget the re-
ception that was given the returning
battle squadron when it reached New
York during the snow storm on De-
cember 26. Theatre parties, dances,
dinners, banquets and every form of
entertainment imaginable was given
in honor of the seamen and officers.
He was in European waters about six
months and had sufficient shore
leave to visit London, Edinburg and
other large cities. He was in London
during the week the armistice was
signed and participated in the wild
celebration that occurred.

GOES BACK TO ANCIENT DAYS
Expression Concerning Fires Of Faith
and the Torch OF Religion Traced
to Fire Worshipers.

"My faith Is like n burning flame"
many a martyr has said when he was
being Sorely. -'ied II may carry the
torch of the true religion forward" is
ar expression 50 often used that It
seems almost tritc Is it an accident
that many of the most ferycut religious
phrases are connected In one way or
another with the tre-mage?
one Of the curious customs of rithu-
ania gives clew to the answer 10
this question. Religion and faith are
expressed in fiery terms because most
of our ancestors We're fire worshiperS
The tradition has outlived pagan
ism, has come into Christianity itself,
and remains most plainly evident in
the language We use when talking Of
religion.
In Lithuania family councils are held
only in front of the hearth All impor-
tant gatherings are connected with
the fireplace, The fire is never allowed
TO die out. II is the duty of the old,
est woman in the family to tend To the
fire, to cover it with ashes mt night
and tn revive it in the morning.
Why the oldest woman rather than
the oldest man? Because in pagan
days the attendants of the sacred fires
V ere always women, the vcstal vir-
gins, whose lives We're devoted to that
one task
When We speak of the fires of faith.
therefore, or Of the torch of religion,
we are barking back to the ancient
days, the days when fire was faith and
cligton a torch
