Dipping the Flag Ranks Before the Booming of the Guns. , In the days before catnon and In deed until comparatively recent times a vessel made Its salutation br lower Ling or -dipping" its flag. This is the oiaest ana most -honorable greeting which' a ship can give. It ranks before the booming of guns, however many. Tblsialute bis always tteeu demand ed by English speaking seamen, and its exaction has burned the hearts and the powder of generations of naval com manders. For a foreign ship, whether merchant or martial, to enter an Eng lish port without veiling topsails or dipping its natloual flaz was to court the chances of - war. although the pro- roundest peace existed. Without warn ing or argument the shore defenses or a man-of-war would send a round of shot across the bows or between the masts of the Insolent Intruder, and- if the offending flag came not down In stantly the foreigner was brought to her senses by being raked through and through. Such was the reception ac corded by Sir John Hawkins In the sixteenth century to tbe Spanish ad miral who In time of peace sailed into Portsmouth sound without veiling hit topsails or lowering bis flag. Salutes are essential matters of naval etiquette "sfod are exchanged under an elaborate code arranged between the powers. Tne number of guns to be fired under all conceivable circum stances Is minutely stipulated. New York Press. ' Much In Little. Tommy Pop. what does multnm In parvo mean?
