The machine shown here is a biplane of the most advanced type. note he boat-like lines of the body. It is built with what is known as pontoon construction, which enables it to alight on and rise from the water. This type of machine also has splendid rising of climbing ability so that it can fly without having to run along a great distance on the level. Because of this it is especially desirable for navy use, as it can be started from the deck of a battleship. Use of the aeroplane in the present European war has practically revolutionized modern methods of warfare. Our Aviation Corps makes up in skill and achievement what it lacks in numbers, and the Government is hard at work building new machines and training new men to increase this very important arm of the service.

Divided Back
Description:
Compliments of the Army and Navy Chaplains The U.S.S. Harrisburg which brought me home was launched in 1888 as the "City of Paris". 560 feet long, 62 feed wide, with a displacement of 10,060 tons, 19,000 horsepower and a speed of 19 knots, the first ship to be fitted with twin screws, she was easily the "Queen of the Ocean" and broke the world's record by crossing the Atlantic from Queenstown to New York in 5 days and 12 hours. From 1893 to 1898 she served in the U.S. Merchant Marine as the 'Paris' and during the Spanish American War as the auxiliary cruiser 'Yale'. Going back to the American Line for mail and passenger service the 'Philadelphia' plied between Southampton and New York until again commissioned by the U.S. as the 'Harrisburg' on May 29, 1918, since which time she has been successfully eluding submarines and bringing back her share of soldiers.
