And she blesses us with surprise.

The secret of the desire of the English
oarsmen to Lar foreign crews from con-
tests for the famous Henley trophy, is
that when foreigners enter the lists it
becomes necessary 10 strengthen the Le-
ander crew with the best muscle of the
other crews, and this insures the trophy
for the Leanders-if the foreigners do
not capture it, The continual possession
of the trophy by the Leanders is taking
the ambition cut of other English clubs,
and chilling the sport. British oaresmen
favor the establishment of new inter
national series for a special trophy like
the America cup, so that the Henley
trophy may be battled for by the home
crews This view of the situation re-
lieves the British oarsmen from the
charge that they are afraid of losing the
Henley trophy.
