The Fangs of the British Navy 



The first photograph ever made of one of the new British monitors in action. These craft 

 are equipped with one fourteen or fifteen inch gun, and are very effective for coast bombard- 

 ment. Six first-class monitors may be built at the cost of one super-dreadnaught, and are 

 useful for coast attack as in the Dardanelles 



A view from the forward turrets of the super-dreadnaught "Queen Elizabeth," the pride of 



Great Britain's navy. The huge fifteen-inch guns shown throw a heavier shell than has ever 



been shot from a battleship before. During a bombardment in the Dardanelles, these great 



guns hurled their one-ton projectiles over a distance of nearly fifteen miles
