bh Today in the Navy Yard at Bos-|
i ton lies a wooden hulk. Time has]
~~ furled her sails and shorn her of
her masts. The ravages of decay
| have rendered her timbers unsea-
worthy. This is'no common hulk,
but the ship that was once a navy.}
- Veteran of more than one hundred
and thirty-one years of loyal service
to her country, she is now: the proud
possessor of the most brilliant fight-
ing record of any ship in any navy
in the world. She is known affec-
B® tionately as “Old Ironsides”—The
BU. S. Frigate Constitution.
B® Although she bears the scars of
HM 42 cngagements, her colors have
“never been dipped in defeat. One
i by the United States, she was
launched in Hartt’'s Shipyard, Bos-
#@ ton, in 1797. Commissioned in 1798,
he ‘sailed against the French Pri-
vateers, who were preying on our
commerce along the Atlantic Coast
and in West Indian waters, leaving
- destruction in their wake.
Her next duty took her into the
blue waters of the Mediterranean,
where from 1803 to 1805 she bom-
barded the forts of Tripoli, dictating
peace with the Barbary Pirates and
forever ending our tribute to them.
During the war of 1812 she won
a succession of victories over the
ii British fleet, increasing our prestige
& abroad and inspiring at home a
M greater faith in the new Republic.
§ “Old Ironsides” stood invincible
against the great English navy and
fought for our independence on the
sea, as, two generations before, the
colonists had fought for it on land.
Her remarkable escape from the
Britisn squadron off the coast of
New Jersey in July of 1812, the de-
struction of the Guerriere, the cap-
ture of the Java, the Cyane and the
Levant, make pages of romantic
reading in the history of our coun-
try. Her conquests not only estab-
lished our freedom of the seas in
1812 and made of the United States
a first-cluss sea power, they did
more. The moral effect of her vic-|
8 tories upon the country, serving to |
®# unite opposing factions and terri-|
#1 tories in a feeling of national pride
i and unity of purpose, cannot be!
B over-estimaived. Staunch as ‘her

Long has it waved on high,
And many an eye has danced to
see y
That banner in the sky; '
9 Beneath it rung the battle shout,
And burst the cannon’s roar—
The meteor of the ocean air
Shall sweep the clouds no more.
Her deck once red with heroes’

Where knelt the vanquished foe,
When winds were hurrying o’er the
flood, ;
And waves were white below,
No more shall feel the victor’s
tread, Ta
Or know the conquered knee—
The harpies of "the shore shall
pluck .
The eagle of the seal
Oh better that her tattered hulk
Should sink beneath the wave;
Her thunders shook the mighty
deep,
And there should be her grave;
Nail to her mast her holy flag,
/ Set every threadbare sail,
And give her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale!

lI FRIGATE CONSTITUTION
; § The Famous American Vessel Beiter Known as “Old Ironsides” Is
4 Now Being Rebuilt at the “lavy Yard In Boston, Massachusetts.
$630,000 have already been received;
less than $190,000 are still required.
The Save “Old Ironsides” Fund
is being completed principally
through the sale of beautifully ten-
color lithographs from the original
painting by the famous marine ar-
tist, Gordon Grant, depicting the
famous ship as she looked at the
height of her brilliant career. These
are reasonably priced at 50 cents
each.
There is no relic more worthy of
the affections of a Nation than is
the Frigate Constitution. On her
decks are enshrined the proud tra-
ditions for which America stands.
She represents the ideals for which
our country has always strived, the
principles that give to our Nation
its prestige among the nations of
the world. It isa patriotic privilege
to contribute to her restoration as
a National Floating Monument. By
restoring her, we honor not only
“Old Ironsides,” but the men, who
by their bravery and skill, brought
her to such renown and made such’
glorious history for America.
Every American knows of Inde-
pendence Hall and would not think
of letting it fall into decay. Loud
would be the protest from every
corner of our country should it be
proposed to destroy Mount Vernon
our National Shrine. Like these
historic relics, the Frigate Consti-
tution belongs to every American.

generous respense of a grateful na-

The people of America owe a debt

THE new Ford is exception-
ally easy to steer because of
ithe well - proportioned

the shaft and worm to-
gether. The steering worm
sector is forged and ma-
chined in the same piece
with its shaft.
The housing of the steer-
ing gear mechanism is made
of three steel forgings, elec-
trically welded together.
This housing is then eleciri-
cally welded to the steering
columm.’ Such a. one-piece
steel unit is naturally much
sturdier than if several parts
were used and bolted or riv-
eted together.
Throughout, the new Ford
steering mechanism is so
simple in design and so care-
fully made that it requires
practically no attention.
The only thing for you to
do is to have the front steer-
ing spindles, spindle con-
necting rods, and drag link
lubricated every 500 ‘miles
and the steering gear lubri-
cated every 2000 miles.
For this work, you will
find it best to consult the
Ford dealer. He has been
specially trained and
equipped to help you get
the greatest possible use
from your car over the long-
est period of time at
a minimum of trou-
ble and expense.
