Branch). rpHE PRESIDENT, VICE-PRESI-J- DENTS and MEMBERS of the Committee of the Branch convey Christmas Greetings to all their members and wish to draw their attention to the following verses written by Tennyson, approximately 60 years ago. THE FLEET You, you, IF you shall fail to understand. What England is. and what her all-in-aJI. On you will come the curse of all the land, Should this old England fall Which Nelson left so great. His isle, the mightiest Ocean-power on earth, Our own fair isle, the lord of every sea— Her fuller franchise—what would that be worth— Her ancient fame of Free— Were she ... a fallen state? Her dauntless army scatter’d, and so small. Her island-myriads fed from alien lands— THE FLEET OF ENGLAND IS HER ALL-IN-ALL: HER FLEET IS IN YOUR HANDS, AND IN HER FLEET HER FATE. You, you, that have the ordering of her fleet, IF you should only compass her disgrace, When all men starve, the wild mob’s million feet Will kick you from your place, But then, too late, too late. ‘“rpHE PRESS’’ Classified Advertisements are read at the breakfast table, and are sure to deliver results during the day—l2 words Is, 3 insertions 2s 6d.
