The Harrison Drummonds with their new
ly acquired possession, the White Heather.
may be expected to do large lines OF
yachting this coming summer and to enter
tain many friends on board. Their former
yacht. Sapphire, while tolerably COM
modious, was by no means roomy enough
for a large party such as Mr.. and Mrs.
Drummond like to nave with them on their

est private yacht afioat, they will doubtless
have no further difficulty on the score Of
size and comfort.
