lead to Rome; but on this day all roads led
to Windermere. The early train from Bel

tened to a better discourse. At the close the
speaker called for the choir to sing ''Nearer
My God to Thee" Mckinley's favorite
hymn, and all joined in. 1t was something
never to be forgotten. At the noon recess
fine dinner was served in the dining
room, and at p. NJ. the meeting was again
called to order and the Dept. Commander
took the stand. speaking along the line of

William H. Crane, the actor, is an enthusi-
astic yachtsman, and in recent interview
had this to say of his favorite recreation :
50 yacht is good for anything and every
thing. 1t is good for the health, for the an
petite, for the muscles. 1t is good for ones
powers of expression if, as is generally the
case, one has three or four sailers who
are both deaf and stupid. 1t will develop a
voice and fiuency of speech in one season
that will give points to an auctioneer or the
captain of a canal boat. 1t is good for the
consumption of cash. A yacht lies awake
all night long devising ways for making it's
owners spend money the next morning."
