COMMEMORATE
HISTORIC TRIP

Savannah, Ga, Mar. S.-The CEN
tennial anniversary of transatlantic
steam navigation will be celebrated
here on May %, the date when the
Savannah, the first ship to cross the
Atlantic propelled by steam and the
fore-runner OF the great ocean grey
hounds OF today. sailed from this port
for Liverpool on her historic voyage.
The Savannah was built at New
York city and was launched on Aug
ust %, 1918. She was mastered by the
two Rogers-Captain Moses Rogers be-
ing the commander. and Captain
Stevens Rogers, the sailing master.
The vessel left New York city March
81. 1919. and arrived in this city for
the first time on April IL. 1919.
On May %. 1919, the trip across the
Atlantic was started from this port.
Everything went well until June IT,
when the vessel was stopped by the
British cutter Kite, whose commander
thought the Savannah was on fire and
stopped her to assist In fighting the
flames.
The vessel was stopped outside Liv-
erpool by an English sloop OF war,
whose commander wished the Ameri-
can vessel to display the British colors
above its own. Captain Rogers re-
ficer with p boiling water bath il he
did not leave the ship. He immed-
lately left.
The Savannah locked in Liverpool
on June 20, after completing the voy-
age in 20 days and II hours. The en-
gines were used only eighteen days on
the trip.
The entrance OF the Savannah under
full steam caused excitement in Liv-
erpool and while the vessel remained in
port It was the center OF interest. The
Savannah then proceeded to Stock
holm and on September Is, arrived at
st. Petersburg. (now Petrograd),
where she was inspected by the Amer
lean and foreign ministers and the
nobility.
The ship left st. Petersburg on Sep
TENDER 20, 1919, and arrived in Savan-
nah on November 80, after an absence
Of 1872 days.
This was the first and last trip of
the Savannah across the Atlantic. AZ
terward her engines were removed and
she was used as a sailing vessel be-
tween New York and Savannah. She
was wrecked off Long Island In 1921.

Picnic Games for Mothers

To the Editor Of Woman's Page:
Dear Madam-Will you please send
me games that could be played on
picnic by a mothers club where prizes
could ne given some middle aged moth
ers? MICS. l. ..
Secure the photographs taken in
childhood or girlhood Of all the mothers
in the club. Tie n string between two
trees or bushes and pin the pictures on
the string. Let the club guess (which
is who" and award n prize to the first
mother who guesscs all the pictures
correctly. Along the same lines is
another guessing game, in which all
the maiden names of the mothers are
written out. and every one guesses which
belongs TO whom. A number of amusing
games can be played with buttons.
Have n race in sewing buttons on Il
niece of material. providing a small piece
of material. buttons. needle and thread
/ for each person and giving prize for
the most rapid sewer. Guess in which
l. hand your opponent holds n button. If
YOU guess right you get the button. if
YOU guess wrong the other person keeps
the button. and the largest number of
buttons at the end of the game gets a
prize. For another game provide scis-
sors and long pieces of tape. Let as
many women as there are scissors race.
at the same time splitting the tape in
the middle. Provide enough prizes for
each group of racers. If the tapc
breaks before the end is reached the
nlayer who is holding it is ruled out.
The one who gets her tame cut in two
length first wins the prize It might
be fun to have some funny little thing
as BOBBY prize for the one who takes
the longest in each race, and then wher
all have raced let the slowest ones rae,
together for prize. | hope these sug
gcstions will help you and that you
will have n very enjoyable picnic.

ried couples; for instance the girls find
lotsof pleasure in each others society
and the same is true of the men. 1t is
jolly to have your fun with punches.
But in many cases the sinister influence
of cliques on the young couples just
starting out so far outweigh the pleas
ure derived that they ought to be
chueked out of existence.
THE atmosphere is SO destroying. Not
l. only are the constant entertaining
and late hours death dealing to the
wideawakeness of mind the young man
just launched on career ought to have;
but the whole system Of false values of
life make a man and girl fail to see
the real issues. And il they do oc-
casionally catch glimpse of vital
things through the froth they are
ashamed to act on these feeting convic =

years must of necessity be determined

To Clean Pink Dress

10 nc EHior OF woman s rage:
Dear Madam have pink dress
trimmed with pink satin ribbon. Could
YOU tell me how to clean it without
spelling the satin ribbon?
A READER.
Unless you can take the ribbon off
while you are washing the dress. you
will have to use gasoline or one of the
advertised cleaning preparations. As
gasoline is inflammable. be sure TO keen
away from any kind of fire while you
are cleaning the dress Place the dress
in the gasoline, you will need good
deal of it, and swish it up and down.
Then pour off the gasoline and rinse
the dress in clean gasoline. Hang the
dress in the air to dry and allow it
to hang ont for as long as possible in
order to get rid of the odor. As this is
rather complicated. unless you are ac-
customed to the use of gasoline. it
would probably be more practical to
send the dress to a professional cleaner

or go out to one of the parks and take
