During the fifteen minutes before the

was fired.
The official starting time was:

The Shamrock actually crossed the
line in 1:O2:O3 and suffered a handicap
Of 3 seconds.
Both were heading seward, but as
the Reliance from the lee bow of the
Shamrock was backwinding her head
sails, the Shamrock whirled about and
headed down the Jersey coast. The Reli-
ance held on for a minute and then fol
lowed. The maneuver placed the Rei-
ance to windward, but astern of the chal-
lenger. Barr pinched the Reliance close
to the wind and cleverly nursed the
yacht toward the turning mark. The
Shamrock Ill at first footed faster, but
the Reliance more than made it good by
outpointing.

African Rubber a Bio Success

Africa, owing to the enterprise of

strong rival of South America in the
production of rubber A German
planting company has purchased the
primeval forest of Malende, on the
bank of the Mongo river, where rub
ber trees were first discovered by DR..

lende has been planted in Soppo, and
the product of these trees bears a re-

The number of rubber trees al
ready planted by the company ex-
ceeds 200. 600. The colonial division
of the German foreign office has sent
out descriptions and pictures of the
treees, with requests that the people
protect the wild trees when found and
plant others. Because of the greater
profit in rubber. the people of the col
