The Hazel, Captain Larkin, was
considerably damaged through the
foolhardiness of several of her crew,
who got in an argument about the in
f1ammability of gasoline with which
they were filling the tank. One of the
arguers threw a lighted match into the
fluid and soon proved which side ofthe
argument vas correct; the result was
that the foresail was in flames and the
boat IA otherwise incapacitated.
Naturally the Capt. was very indignant
and promptly discharged those who
caused the damage.
The Pittsburg, Capt. Jeffries, was
improved by the introduction of a new
engine. Unfortunately something
went wrong on her trial trip and she

Many of the cottagers were cheered
by al influx of relatives and %acquaint-
