Americans have had to reconcile themselves to the thought that it might be months before United States troops could get into the fight on land and bring the nation’s full striking power to bear upon the enemy. The attitude of Congress threatened to make it years. But with the Navy it was different. The Navy was already a formidable and creditable national weapon. And the Navy was ready. There was no reason why it should not hit at once whenever and wherever it could hit hard. ‘There is distinct relief in the certainty that on sea at least we are already in the thick of it. We can be glad, anyhow, that for intensified warfare against submarines we were on hand, as the American officer in charge of the destroyer flotilla expressed it, “early in the morning.” po “THE TIME CALLS.” HAT Russia needs is a Man. Out of the French Revolution came Napoleon.

Cassin, who did vallant service in the Revolutionary navy.) Stephen Cassin’s ono ideal from childhood was to become @ naval officer. At twenty-four he was a lieutenant. At the very outset of the War of 1812 he was at the front, winning promotion by sheer bravery and re- source. It was during the battle of Lake Champlain, off Plattsburg, that bis most brilliant work was done. In this battle Cassin commanded the schooner Ticonderoga, which formed tho rear guard of Mc- Donough’s little fleet. smash McDonough’s formation. A goodly share of the attack was centred ou the Ticonderoga. Several English vessels engaged tho Ticonderoga at close quarters, raking her from stem to stern, The gun crews of the stricken American schooner wavered under the blast of load and fron. } Then it was tho at Stephen Cassin, sword in hand, taffra!l and laughed aloud as the | nnn leaped up on the . j Braves Death sharpshooters sought to pick lim off.
