AMERICAN PARENT SHIP A VERITABLE

tilla in British Water*. June 2H (by
mail).—"We can make moat anything

to a needle "
An American sailor doing hi* bit
aboard the big parent *hip that look*
after the brood of destroyer*, deliv-
ered himself of thi* tribute to the
great war ve**cl a* he filed away at
a big piece of bra**. The metal had
been cast right there on the ahip to
make a propeller for a small tavat
and he wa* now taking off *ome of
the rough edges.
The destroyer that wanted that
propeller didn't have to go ashore to
iret the work done Instead the or-
der wa* sent to the flostlng work-
shop which wa* turning out the screw
in quick time and with the very best
gusrantce of tuperior workmamhip.
On another deck William Clina, en-
chief at some of the most expensive
hotel* In America, was standing at
hi* table ladling food for lusty young
American Nsilors. Stewards were
filing to his table with empty tray*,
having them refilled, and then scur-
rying back to the mess-room where
hungry youngster* moved in a cafe-
teria Hne to get their lunch.
"I cooked in hotels in Atlantic City
where they charged fancy high
prices," said Cllne, "But the food was
no better than what we are serving
this minute to the boys on this ship."
Rstlon* are unknown. The lunch-
eon bill was; vegetable soup, cold ham
and beef, plenty of bread and but-
ter,tapioca pudding and coffee. The
*allor Oliver Twist may keep on com-
ing back for more till he ha* had
enough-
This luncheon bill included an Item
that King George and Lloyd George
do not have today—pure whit* bread
The big flour magazine* are atuffed
with sack* of unadulterated flour and
when the whlta-clad baker* have
cleaned up th» last of It thera will
be more coming from the United
States.
The parent ship supplies the de-
stroyer* with bread. It also contains
(he department store where sailors
replenish their locker*. There" I* a
barbershop fitted out with white-
enameled equipment. And there is a
hospital where human repairs go on
while the workihop* are fixing dam-
aged veasels.
There's a laundry, a bank, a post-
office, a mlnaturc ice-cream factory,
