State House being replete with me
morials, all of individual men, hut this
1s the first to a group of men, and to
young men. many of them in their
teens and twenties. The Governor paid
<a tribute to tic* patriotic societies of
Maryland, who kept alive historic in
terest and memorials. Hi* spoke of
Maryland's glorious past and told of
the ideal for which America had
fought, and said these ideals had its
much to do with winning the war as
the fighting.
Governor Harrington lauded Mary
land. the State of noble traditions, first
to answer the call l'or Navy's quota,
and her men ever willing, always
ready, to answer the call for patriotic
service.
Governor Harrington, who pointed
out, that the men named on Hie bronze
tablet hid entered the Navy when the
people of America believed that this
country’s part would he fought by the
Navy. Knowing this, he had not
hesitated, he continued, to send word
to the President when the call came
for recruits that he need not have any
fear for Maryland, as she would be
true to her past. It gave him particu
lar pleasure, Governor Harrington
said, to accept the tablet for Maryland,
as the people of the State were anxious
to give honor where honor is due. As
President of the Senate, William I.
Norris, spoke on behalf of the Assem
bly. saying it gave him great pleasure
to accept the tablet, as Maryland de
lights to honor the sons that delighted
to honor her.

A figure of America points to the trag

peace, and we shall fight, for the
things which we have always car

a task we dedicate our lives and
our fortunes. ’’

and pleasant manner. The Secretary

Her record in this, he said, was only
an upholding of her rich naval tradi

received the biggest ovation of the
ceremonies when he paid tribute to

the patience of Lincoln and the finu

“We have met in this historic temple
to do honor to youth -to courageous,

Recounts Sfufe’s Sacrifice
I
Instances of the sacrifice made by
Marylanders during the world war,
were recounted by ihe Secretary. He
| said:
“When the destroyer Jacob Jones
was sunk by an enemy submarine De
' eember 6, 11*17, three men from Mary
land -John Bielatowicz, Ralph B. Wil
liams and Francis Jask dski —were
killed by the explosion, and others on j
the rafts waited patiently through the !
long winter night until rescue came.
“Two Marylanders llonore Flag-j
1 gett and Nicholas Wagner were lost
| when the little destroyer Chauncey, on
duty in the Mediterranean, was sunk
in collision with a British transport.
“One of the first American merchant
ships sunk during the war was the
tanker VAcuum, and Charles F. Luek
an. of Maryland, a member of the arm
ed guard, was one of the gun crew who
perished as a result of cold and ex
posure in the open boats, which, after
a long struggle, were rowed to shore.
“There was more thrilling rescue!
; during the war than that of the sur- j
vivors of the Florence H., the munition
ship, which burned and blew up in tnei
harbor of Quiberou. A Maryland mem-1
b**r of the armed guard, William lius- :
sell Clark, was killed in the explosion, i

Admiral Scales Speaks

superimOndent of the Naval Academy.',
who was introduced by Dr Henry Bar
ton Jacobs, presiding official of the
ceremonies, was given an ovation Ad
miral Scales spoke briefly, but inter
estingly. ot the traditions of the Navy
declaring that sailors believe any na
tion whose sons have plenty of salt in
1 their blood, plenty of lore of the blue
sea in their hearts, can take their
, piaces among the nations of the world
and maintain their country's place
| there, and Marvlnad's SOO had proved
iit be said. He paid tribute lo Mary-)
rm:!:.1 v
!j landers who had played an important]
part in all wars, and especially the
i “first 800 of Marylanders who volun
teered in the United Stated Navy.
Admiral Scales was followed by
| Capt. Wat T. ('luverius. Commandant
of Midshipmen, w ho in his usual pleas-j
jing manner said, while not a Mary
lander himself, he always felt a k**m
interest in the State and its noble ra
ditions, as all naval officers did .*]-n,
had received their training here at the
U. S. Naval Academy. Cap;. Ciuverii’s
said it was especially pleasing to the '
Navy that these first Maryland SOU Su. \
chosen to serve in the Navy, rather
Than on land, and this fact, he de
clared, gave great pleasure to men in
the naval service.
At the close of th? ceremonies it
'was requested that any and ail men
present, whose names are on tablet,
come forward, which the following
five did, and were heartily shaken by
