Navy Day Program Starts at 10

A Navy Day celebration will be held at the Charlestown Navy Yard today from 10 to 6.30 o'clock. While the main purpose of holding this celebration is to increase the fund of the Naval Relief Society with which it carries out its work among the families of disabled and deceased sailors, it is also hoped to give citizens within the vicinity an opportunity to become more closely acquainted with the Navy Yard in connection with the national preparedness movement. Tickets of admission will be sold at the entrance for 25 cents each.

Among the many interesting features will be submarine runs, torpedo runs, exhibition drills and "man overboard" drills. There will also be dancing on the battleships and other amusements of a usual fair-day.
