450TH TRIP OF THE
OLYMPIC
"Grand Old Lady Of-Atlantic."
A LINER REBUILT.
Southampton.
The White Star liner Olympic (46,439 tons), the largest British. built ship afloat, set out from South- ampton on her 450th voyage across. the Atlantic.
"The liber, she's a lady," wrote Kipling, but the Olympic is a Grand |Old Lady-the Grand Old Lady of
the Atlantic.
-kl
That exactly describes her-parti- cularly after she has been furbished, and overhauled in readi nens for the season's traffic. Among ships which traverse the North Atlantic she is the Grande Dame;! she sails the ocean, as it were, with an air proud of her past perform- lances and confident of her ability
to repeat them in the future.
A Floating Home. Nowadays we are told that all ships are floating, hotels, self-con- tained cities, and the like. But the Olymple is more than that-she-is floating home for her passengers, whether they travel first-class. tour- ist, or third. She has always been renowned for her comfort, and when' she left Southampton, the Olympic, thanks to the improvements which! have been made during the recent overhaul, หย one of the most luxuriously comfortable vessels that have ever set out from an Engliab port.
It is not claimed that she is a | flyer, but she la fast and can cross the western ocean at a steady 22 knots. The great secret of her! popularity is comfort, and that, with security, are the watchwords [of the 2,000 souls that man ber from the skipper, Capt. J. W. Binks, to the youngest cabin boy.

luxury of the first-class cabins.
"Talkies" for Everyone.
In the tourist class the degree of luxury is little less; indeed, some of the cabins now in this category were first-class u voyage or two ago. And the third-class accommodation has to be seen to be believed. It falls short of the first and tourist standards only in non-essentiala.
As for the public rooms, in ali classes they are in keeping with the Olymple standard of luxury and comfort. There are "talkies" for everyone, 蟲 gymaasium, squash
