(By W. R. Margraves, Staff Correspondent for the United Press) j New York. N. Y„ June 27—(Special! to Daily Democrat) —Interest among the residents of the quaint little Azorean city of Ponta Delgada was divided, during the Nancies' transAtlantic flight, between the United States naval seaplanes and the U. S. I Melville, mother-ship of the Destroy-J er Flotilla No. 2. During the flight ‘ the Melville also acted as seaplane tender, carrying to the Azores thousands of gallons of specially distilled “gas.” spare parts enough to repair minor breaks or defects and additional emergency supplies for the crews of the seaplanes should they be found necessary. The Melville, in command of Captain John S. Arwine, U. S. N„ also was t the headquarters of Captain Ward W. Wortman, commander of the destroyer flotilla marking the line of flight from half way across the Atlantic to Lisbon. Portuguese officials and visiting naval officers from flreign ships were amazed at the equipment of the vessel, and spent hours inspecting its many departments. The Melville, according to Captain Arwine, created the same sensation at Queenstown, where it was stationed for twenty two months during the war, caring for thirty-six destroyers and as many sub-chasers. British officials who visited the steamer were overwhelmed by the magnitude of the work done aboard. Destroyers coming alongside with funnels torn away or bows bent and twisted steamed off within a few days as sea-worthy as though they had been in dry dock. As a matter of fact, Captain Arwine said, several big jobs were sent over from the British dry docks to be done on the Melville. The Melville was the flagship Admiral ■ Sims in European waters and al thong ,i there are aboard a blacksmith’s and copyersmith’s shop, ! macl “ne shop, carpenter shop, founi dry, paint shop and complete printI ing establishment, the vessel is kept I clean. Even in the spa-BRUISES-CUTS ■ Cleanse thoroughly—reduce inflammation by cold wet compresI ses—apply lightly, without » friction- — VICK’S VAPORUfcft “YOUR BODYGUARD”-30F.60ML20

clous and up-to-the-minute hospital, I where major operations have been I performed, the construction of the j ship prevents noises from other parts from disturbing the patients. | During the fourteen months of | U S. participation in the war this ; hospital took care of the health of the crew of the Melville, more than five hundred skilled artisans and mechanics and sailors as well as from _ 3,500 to 4,000 men on the destroyers. One of the reasons why the Melvill" is especially popular among the destroyer forces is the fact that she carries the payroll, handling the ac- , counts of thousands of officers and men and paying out in excess of $150,000 each month in wages. All bills of destroyers are paid hv the Melville paymaster, who also handles hte Liberty Loans and insurance affairs of the small fighting craft Another department that makes the Melville the center of a fleet of small boats having the appearance of bees swarming, is the canteen, where the sales average from $12,000 to $15,000 a month. The bake shop is a marvel of perfection and confection. More j than 3.000 pounds of bread are baked there daily in addition to delicious pies and cakes. It also has capacity tor turning out 100 gallons of Ice , cream, which it does twice a week. Members of the British royal family came aboard the Melville frequentj ly when she was at Queenstown, for the purpose of sampling the ice cream ' and apple pie. So spacious are the provision and supply deartments that meat. eggs, i potatoes, and vegetables sufficient to keep eighteen destroyers and the Melville for four months are carried, f This is in addition to carrying enough j oil in her hold to re fuel the same I number of destroyers. i In the general naval stores departI ment can be found anything from a i needle to an anchor —in fact there are six spare anchors as well as five 1 thousand other items that might be required to keep eighteen destroyers ' iunning six months. Other interesting departments are the optical shop, where delicate instruments of navigation are repaired or adjusted, and the ordnance department. where depth bombs, guns, tor- , pedo tubes and torpedoes are assembled or repaired i A band and orchestra composed of members of the crew plays on deck,' or below deck in bad weather, three times a day and when moving picture shows are given on deck also furnishes the music. When a moving ! picture show’ is to lie given on the Melville, the word is wig-wagged or flashed by blinker lights throughout the destroyer fleet and in a few’ moments small boats are racing toward her, members of liberty parties aboard eager to get front seats. The ( king and queen of England attended I this show at Queenstown. i j In the postoffice mail for 15,000 men is handled, and money orders are issued. i Virtually every state in the union is represented among the crew. ABOUT TOWN ‘ The Catholic Ladies of Columbia will give their ice cream social next Monday evening on the St. Jcsepii Catholic school grounds. This was postponed from Wednesday of this week on account of the rain. i Why is it that th' feller with fur I bearin’ forearms alius has his sleeves rolled up? Rodney Moots has resigned as cashier o’ th’ People’s Bank an’ i will become a molder. He says th' time has come when he must think of his family an’ th’ future. —Abe Martin in Indianapolis News. j Earl Adams and Fred Schurger, 4 n costume, as Mr. and Mrs. Jack Spratt one of whom “could eat no fat” and the other “could eat no lean’” will make the audience scream with laughter this evening at the performance of “The Wishing Ring." Death came to Eva Maud Bulson. wife ot Dr. Albert E. Bulson, Wednesday evening at Lie. family home : t Fort Wayne. Mrs. Bulson had been in failing heat h for the past three, years. However, she was not confined to her room until two weeks ago. Death was due to cardiac failure, She is survived by the husband and a son, Eugene, and a daughter, Geraldine. Dr. Bulson and family are well known here. Jay Teeple has been discharged from the service and is visiting with his mother, Mrs. Minnie Teeple on Vine street. He had been a patient in the army hospital at Des Moines, lowa. A runaway occurred on North Main ■ street yesterday when a team cf horses diiven by John Shafter, of ■ Craigville, frightened. There was no bolt to hold the neckyoke of the harness and when the wagon started down hill it bumped the legs of the animals causing them to take fright. They tore loose from the wagon north of the and ran to Villa North. > where they stopped. Mr. Shafter was thrown off the wagon against some bricks, but escaped with only bad > bruises.—Bluffton News.
