When you are your own yacht as well
as captain there is not time for fnery TO
get twisted up in the rigging, for while
you are adjusting feather some one else
is winning the race. You can't come about
successfully at a sharp turn with a fur
scarf blown across your eyes and you
can't tack for position If your shoes pinch

agile mind and foot and gown plain to
severity. But it's great sport for person
who likes to do II all. There Is no one TO
get in the way but yourself and nothing
to take into consideration but wind and
sail.
And then when you've won the prize you
just take of the yacht and tuck it under
your arm and rush away to sumptuous
feast

satisfaction 10 yourself and you can never
play to the satisfaction Of any one else,
either friend or rival. It's game with
much individuality OF stroke. You even

house party. And lovers who have weathered
a contest as rivals in prize ice hockey
game can be safely entered for the matri
monial stakes without further tests.
