think of held the social hall and the
smoking room in thrall.
During the morning there are more
stirring games for athletieally inclined,
races from the three-Iegged race to tha
potato race. men and women racing up
and down the slanting deck trying to
carry q large potato on a tiny spoon.
Nearly every day there are chances
sold on the length of the run. As this
varies from day to day for each "A hours
the bidding for the scores is sometimes
very lively.
Numbers, approximately what the
run has been for the last % hours, are
put up at auction, the holder of tl1;oa
lucky number sometimes winning quite
sum.
On every trip there is a tug of war, or
rather two, one for the ladies and one
FOR the men. There are many prelim-
mary pulls, the captain Of each team
coaching his band till all are in good
trim for the final tussle.
On boat with many English passen-
gers you viii always find a place marked
off for cricket. Day after cay the games
go on@till It becomes a contest of con
siderable skill
During a trip through tropic waters
the men on board have one great adj
vantage over The women; a huge tank
built Of heavy canvas is erected at one
end Of the boat and every morning the
men come tnmbling out in their bathing
suits for a dive and a plunge in the wa
ter. Occasionally in obstacle races about
the boat the.men are compelled to 90
through hoop suspended in the middla
Of the tank.
The large ships now all carry fine liz
braries for the use Of the passengers.
This is very acceptable for the stock Of
the individual grows rapidly to the end

and q good book Is always the best way
of passing a few hours In d long after
noon. If the people on board are the
least inclined to be musical there are al
ways plenty Of petitions for waltz or
two-step, though the unstable floor of an
ocean steamer is the worst place In the
world to dance. The best part Of the
dance Is the promenade after, the decks
swung with lights, the White-heeced
water with its CLEANS Of phosphorus
and the brilliant stars that never seem
SO near nor SO bright as when they
crowd from one side OF the horizon to
another bounded only by endless space.
A large steamer is like a great hotel
every one Is but a unit of the whole. BY
the second day out eIiques have formed
and you learn people in a#few @eeks'
time as you would perhaps never know
them IN an ordinary acquaintance
Thesad part is the breaking up perhaps
forever of friendships formed. The gala
dinner always given on the night before
the landing has more sadness than We
would think possible when we remem
Der that on the morrow We have reached
our chosen destination and TO most OF
those who have Travelled so far together
remains the memory Of happy earesgea
hours idled away In pleasant company.
