In the war with Greece in 1912 the Messudieh was reported badly damaged in a naval battle in the Dardanelles.

We know this from the chance words of a few early writers, from the sculptures which have been saved af the different ancient nations which represent children in . the act of play ing- and also from tho fact that p.jT toys, closely analogous to many toys of today, have been found in the tombs of the children of bygone ages -dolls, balls, tops and tiny dishes, added to which there were small warlike "implements for the boys, such as javelins and bows and ar rows. rd|j In tho Metropolitan Museum ot Art, lo New York, there is a fascinating terra-eotta boat, completo to the inviUest detail, lt was found in the tomb of an Egyptian boy of 4,000 years ?go. , , .
