HOW THE LAST Race WAS WON
THE RELIANCE FINISHED AND THE SHAMROCK GET
CROSSED THE FINISHING
LINE AT ALG.-THERE WAS NO SECOND IN THIS RACE

rays Of the yellow western sun were
painting a beautiful marine picture
with the two yachts as center figures,
when. at APO, with almost half the
course yet to be sailed, a thick bank
Of fog came rolling i'm before a south
east wind and envelopcd the sham
rock i'm a gray mist that shut her out
of sight of the fleet.
The Reliance ran along for five min
utes longer with the sun glntmg upon
her sails until the fog bank reached
her and she, too disappeared from
sight. AS it caught her she felt also
a heavier wind from the southeast
smothering her spilinaker and leaning
to the wind through the mist. The
two racers sailed i'm that dangerous
fashion at top speed for an hour.
In the meantime the Navigator. car
rying the regatta committee. hunted
for the lightship to establish the finish
line. 1t was 500 before she found It,
and the fleet began TO gather about
her. All was wall of fog. Ten mon
utes the secretary waited Then the
Reliance, heeling before the wind her
sail bellying hard and her lee rails
dragging up the spindrift, burst
through the fog upon the vision of the
eXpectant watchers on the little excur-
sion fleet. Hardly had they recognized
the familiar features of the American
craft, when. with her great balloon lib
topsail fluttering into the arms of the
nimble members of her crew out on
the bowsprit, she fled across the line
down through lane of yachts to vic.
tory.

How . snake swallow. a Frog

How . Snake Swallows q Frog.
The method of swallowing Is very
simple one, although IL the frog be
large more than half an hour may be-
consumed In the process. The two
bones Of the lower jaw are separate
and capable Of independent movement:
70 the reptile loosens It's hold upon one
side Of it's jaw and pushing that side
forward as far as possible 1t drives the
teeth in again and draws the jaw back
to it's original position
The result Is that the prey is drawn
down by the movement. The process
Is then repeated by the other half Of
the jaw, thus inevitably forcing the.
victim inward. The snakes skin
stretches enormously. and the Jaw ia
of course dislocated. but the extensible-
ligaments hold the bones together.
