The Sports That Make the Man.

Sir Thomas Upton, X. G. O. V,
has written especially for The Sat
urday Evening Post of May 4 an
article on The Sports that Make
the Man. He places yachting high
on the list, and gives some inter
esting anecdotes of his own career
as an amateur yachtsman.
Sir Thomas is hopeful, if not
confident, of lifting" the Ameri-
cas- Cup next autumn. He says
however that if it were certain
ty he would not cross the water;
for there is no sporting interest in
"sure things"
This article will appear exclu-
sively in The Saturday Evening

II saw the morning with the

shoot sunbeams at the vanishing
night, and then reach up and gath
or the stars and hide them in her
bosom and bend town and tickle
the slumbering world with straws
of light until it awoke with laugh
ter and song,
"a thousand bugle calls from
the rosy fire of the east heralded
her coming; II thousand smiling
meadows kissed her garments as
she passed and ten thousand laugh
ing gardens unfurled their howery
flags to her. The heart of the deep
forests trobbed a tribute to bird
song and the bright water rippled
melody of welcome, Youth and
love, radiant with JOY, came hand
