MUSEUM NOTES History in the Making Since our last meeting, several happenings of the kind that make history have been recorded. On Tuesday, May 5, the steamer "William Clay Ford" was launched from the ways of the Great Lakes Engineering Company. She will Join the fleet of the Ford Motor Company when completed. Through the courtesy of Captain Frank Becker, your editor was able to witness the event from the deck of the press boat. On April 30, the cement ship "Paul H. Townsend" was christened at the Civic Center water front park, and is now engaged in bringing bulk cement down the Lakes. Captain Johnston was an invited guest to this event, representing the Guild, and the museum as well. By this time the sinking of the ore carrier "Henry Steinbrenner" has come to the attention of almost everyone in this part of the world. Fourteen of the crew of thirty-one have been rescued; nine are known to be dead, and eight are still missing, and under the circumstances of wind, sea, and water temperatures, may be presumed to be dead. Every person of feeling will be deeply touched by this news, but few landsmen can understand the feeling of seamen who hear it, ---especially those seamen who have witnessed such a disaster, or have escaped from one by a split second. Our deepest sympathy goes to the families and loved ones of the men lost on the "Henry Stienbrenner", -- and to the survivors, who must live with their memories of the disaster. THAT OTHER MACHINE Last month we mentioned that the Masterson Engineering Company was sending us one of their model makers lathes. Mr. Bradley of the Bradley Machinery Company delivered the lathe himself. It has measured up to our expectations and is a real gem. All members attending the May meeting will have a chance to see it in operation. HAVE YOU made any designs for the Guild Flag? Don't forget to bring them to the next Guild meeting.
