Downes, Uni ed States Naval Reserve, gave to the Academy and the Boys’ School of Convent of Mary Immaculate, a thumbnail sketch of the United | States Navy in honor of Navy | Day. Accompanying Lieut. Downes were Rev. T. King, Major U. S. A. | R., and Rev. T. Atherton, S. J., pas- tor of St. Mary, Star of the Sea. A salute to the flag and the singing of the Star Spangled Ban- jner preceded the speech. A brief jof Lieut. Downes’ speech follows: John Paul Jones, the first great admiral was the officer in com- mand in the first naval engage- | ment in the history of the United States Navy. On the smali Lake Champlain, despite bad conditions and small crude boats, the then embryonic force defeated the British seamen and secured the integrity of the United States Navy in the world at large. Ad- miral Jones also designed the first naval vessels, then called frigates. but which now might be called heavy cruisers and battleships. Bainbridge, Decatur ana Perry were also naval greats, expanding the navy in every way open to | Birthday Party For Stone Charch Tonight The First Methodist (Stone) church will be host to her mem- that way!

A beautiful line has been as) sembied. bers and friends this evening at a birthday party to be held in honor of her “97th Birthday Anniversary”. The party will be held immediately following the evening services and will take place in the social hall of the Church Annex. A fine congregation greeted Rev. Ted Jones, pastor of First Baptist church, last evening as he delivered the message of the hour. The congregation of the | First Congregational church were | special guests at the service last | Raght. | Tonight the congregation of }the Ley Memorial Methodist ; church wili be special guests and the message will be delivered by }Rev. H G.

Joe A. Tolle, former }pastor and now serving a pas- torate in Hendry Memorial Methodist church at Fort Pierce. The Rev. L. Munro arrived Sat- jurday will be in the services throughout the week, bringing jmessages on Thursday and Sun- 'day evenings. Beginning tonight all attending ithe services will be presented jthem at that time. Decatur wiped out the Tripoli pirates in the Mediterranean Sea, in order that the high seas might be safe fot international commerce Perry opened the Orient for the world’s commerce with ever growing United States Navy. John Dewey built up the prestige of the American naval forces by giving Cuba and the Philippines power to stand them- selves up as equal nations in the world. The navy assisted Cuba in the severance of her relations with Spain, and again Dewey figured greatly in the vicious Battle of Manila. Admiral Byrd, with his party claimed the Antarctic as a United States possession. The invaluable research able be obtained in the far north is an important fac- tor in the history of this naval ex- ploration. Admiral Greely -pushed the American flag, through extreme hardships, farther than it had ever been carried. In 1932 the speaker held a conversation with the 81 year old admiral, at which time the elder officer stated that the trouble with American youth is the fact that they are leading mauch too easy a life,.and are not inured to hardships and sacrifices, inevitably taking the easiest issue available. In conclusion, Mr. Downes ex- pressed his w that the youth of today would equip themselves with clean living, respect for God and country, and straightfor- | ward look into the future. Byrd, Greely, Perry, Dewey and Decatur stood for the first line of defense that has kept enemies from Am- erican shores for more than a hundred years. and their in- domitable courage should be held high as an excellent example for American youth. The program closed with the hearty applause of an exceedingly terested audi- ence and the song, “God Bless Am- erica.” Gibson Family Has Returned Home Millard B. Gibson, chief sani- tary officer with the city of Key West, accompanied by Mrs. Gib- son and their daughter, Miss Cora Lee Gibson, who had been spending a while visiting in Mi- ami and surrounding points, have returned to the city.
