This particular date was chosen for Navy day because It Is the anniversary of the birth of Theodore Roosevelt, who, as assistant secretary of war, had much to do with the establishment of the modern American navy and who, throughout his lifetime, was devoted to establishing a sound naval policy for the United States. Navy day not only honors a great American and affords an opportunity for giving thought to our "first line of defense," but It also Is an occasion for recnlllng some of tits Inspiring history of our navy. So "let us now ' praise famous ships I" We have had many of them, ships whose names were once on the lips of every American because of some brilliant feat of arms In defense of our country. In the case of some, their fame outlived their period of usefulness and all that we have to remember them by Is the story of what they did. Fortunately, however, others have been preserved and today they ride the waters of onr coasts as memorials of stirring events In our national history. Greatest of all these "floating museums," perhaps, Is the old frigate Constitution, affectionately known for more than a century as "Old Ironsides." Launched In 1707, as one of the first three naval vessels built by the United States, she set out upon a remarkable career during which her sides were to be scarred by the wounds of 42 battles but never once was she to lower her flag In defeat. In 1798 the Constitution helped clear the West Indies and our const line of French privateers. From 1S03 to 1805 she was engaged In the war with the Barbary states. But the War of 1812 witnessed the Constitutions most brilliant victories and brought her the name of "Old Ironsides." Beginning with her remarkable escape from the British squadron off the coast of New Jersey In July, 1812, she swept on to a series of feats which thrilled the nation. Among them were the destruction of the Guerriere and the suciessle captures of the Java, the Cycne and the Levant Old Ironsides" great achievements, Despite however, the frigate was allowed to fall Into disrepair and In 1S30 a board of naval commissioners ordered her broken up and sold. Then Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote his protest In a poem which so stirred public sentiment that sufficient money was appropriated to practically rebuild her in 1S33. In 1905 It was recommended that the Constitution be used as a target to be sunk by gunfire of the modem battleships of the Atlantic fleet and once more a nation-wid- e protest against this sacrilege saved her. Congress appropriated a nominal sura to repair the ship and the upper works were reconditioned. By 1925 it was found that the ravages of time were again threatening the Constitution and In March of that year congress authorized the restoration of the vessel. Since that time the work of restoring Old Ironsides" at the Boston navy yard has been going on and latest reports from there Is that the work Is 37 per cent completed. Since congress did not provide the necessary funds for the work it was found necessary to call upon patristic AssorVcans for contributions. The response was Instantaneous and although more than $000,000 has been raised by this method approximately $200,000 Is still needed, according to Rear Admiral Thlllp Andrews. At the Newport (R. L) naval training station there rides nt anchor a ship which has the distinction of being the oldest vessel on the United States navy list. It Is the frigate Constellation, launched September 7. 1797, a short time previous to the launching of the Constitution and second only to Old Ironsides" In her fame as one of the great ships of the early American navy. Just ns the name of Isnnc Hull will always be associated with that of the Constitution so will the name of Thomas Truxtun be linked with the fnme of the Constellation during our war" with France In had On February 9, 1?99, the Constellation a battle with the French frigate Insurgent which resulted In a victory for Truxtuns ship and the capture of the French vessel. Even more noteworthy was the Constellations fight with the French ship Vengeance on February 2, 1800. Although the French ship was In every way superior to the American, Truxtun compelled the enemy to fight and after a bitter engagement the Frenchmans was forced to strike his flag. However, the Constellation, having lost her mainmast, was so bndly crippled that she was unable to pursue the Vengeance and the Frenchman slipped away In the night and escaped. Even though Truxtun was denied the honor of bringing the enemy ship Into port ns a prize of war, his courage and daring won for him the thanks of congress and a gold medal. Visitors to Erie, Pa can visit two historic vessels If they choose. One Is the Wolverine, the first Iron vessel built for the navy and the fore- runner of the modern drendnaughts. But more Interesting still Is another ship preserved there, .the brig Niagara, sole survivor of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perrys victory over the British at the battle of during the War of 1812. The Niagara was one of the five ships built of green lumber by Perry, when he was ordered to construct a fleet which would try to regain mastery of laike Erie from the British nnd save the Old Northwest for the United States It was to the Niagara that Perry carried his bat- tie flag, bearing the dying words of Cnpt. James Lawrence. Don't give up the ship when his flag ship, the Lawrence, was rld'tled and most of her On the decks of the crew killed or Niagara he directed the engagement which ended In his astounding victory nnd. sitting on those decks, he penned his Immortal 'We have met the enemy and they ara ours" message. 1798-180- Put-in-Bn- y After the War of 1812 the Nlugara. after being sold and resold a number of times, wus sunk by the order of the government In Misery hay near Erie harbor. There she lay for nearly three anniquarters of s century until the centennial 1913 when In the versary of the Lake Erie victory state of Pennsylvania appropriated money to have her rnlsod and reconditioned. After the celebration the old brig was again the victim of neglect For several years she was kept afloat with dlf with her Acuity and finally sank In the bay working. Last spring the Erie Count? pump Historical society set about restoring the Niagara and thnt work Is now being carried on.

Out In Portland, Ore., there rides at unchw a battleship which In 1S9S performed a fen' which sent her fnme ringing around the world It is the battleship Oregon which. In 1898 unde the command of Rear Admiral Charles Edgn Clark, made her dash from the Pacific cons' around Cape Horn Into the Atlantic and arrive-tn time to take part In the battle of Ranting bay on July 3. It had taken her just 67 days t cover 14,000 miles of. water, the longest and quick est trip of any battleship then alloat and still a world's record.
