NAVY'S HISTORY.
EXHIBITION OF MODEL SHIPS.
The London correspondent of the "Caylon Observer" writes:-
The gaily painted exterior of the Royal United Service Institution, Whitehall (the banqueting hall of the Palace of Whitehall and Charles I's ante-chamber to the 'scaffold) attracts attention to the exhibition of model ships at pre- sent being held there. These models were made in the Overseas Department of the Board of Trade strictly on the authority of old prints and documents, They have been placed end to end, and this line of ships, from a canoe of the eighth century, to R.M.S. "Hood," is a complete pictorial record of the development of the fighting vessels. It is a graphic summary.
The log canoe, of the eighth cen tury is followed by the large row- ing-boat in which William the Conqueror spiled the Channel. These lock us much utility vessels. as the ironclads at the other.ond. But in between there is sight of the battleships that aniled the seas in pageantry. There is a beautiful model of a warship of Henry III's It carried castles and n day, fighting top and a great square sail very bravely coloured with heraldic beasts-a fine, showy vessel.
