YACHTING
ACTIVITY
Many Brushes 1wixt
jolly Shippers
Yesterday.

Nearly all the Honolulu yachts were
cruising yesterday, fishing being the
object of most of the trips. But Incl
dental to the day were several smart
brushes between shippers eager to try
their boats mettle.
Clarence Macfarlane took a gay par
ty out in La Paloma, going along the
coast toward Waianae. The Maggie,
Lyle; the Hawaii, Sorenson; the Ma
lolo, Johnson; and the Skip, Jaeger, all
had their canvas abroad yesterday.
One of the incidents of the day was
an impromptu race between the Skip,
Archie Robertson at the tiller, and
Lyle with his yacht Maggie, from Pearl
Harbor down. The boats proved to be
almost evenly matched.
The wind was fresh most of the day,
though during the morning some Of the
boats were becalmed a couple of hours.

Advice for Motorists

An expert in motor car driving gives
some tips about how accidents may be
avoided and mentions places where il
is necessary for the general safety OF
the public and the people in the car
to drive slowly. Among other things
he says:
Drive slow-through the city streets
or in towns or villages.
Drive slow-when passing or meeting
trolley cars at rest, or just stopping.
Somebody might jump off.
Drive slow-when approaching cross
streets, or in turning corners. People
often become bewildered at the sight
of an approaching automobile.
Drive slow-when meeting teams on
the road. This is most important and
imperative and failure to do SO con-
fers the title of automobile hog.
Drive slow-when dog runs in front.
Drive slow-when passing churches
where services are being held.
Drive slow-when approaching rail-
road crossings, and be sure You are
right before you go ahead.
Drive slow-when there is any doubt
about the road, or possibility of danger
ahead.
Stop-when approaching a horse that
appears to be badly frightened. This
is the first and great commandment in
automobile touring.
Stop-when there is a crowd ahead,
or when there is an accident of any
kind, whether your fault or not. Rem
der all assistance possible and as a
safeguard, take the names and adj
dresses of witnesses.
Don't-try to show off on the public
streets how fast you can go and not
run over anybody. Nothing more
quickly arouses the resentment and in
dignation of people against the auto
mobile
Don't-toot your horn unnecessarily
in driving through city streets, giving
the impression that you have a royal
right to the road-or that an "automo-
bile hog is coming. If you drive rea-
sonably, tn re is small need of the
horI, which saould be chiefly employed
in cases of imminent danger, and not
for forcing a right of way through
crowded streets. 1t is your duty, not
the other mans, to avoid danger.
Don't attempt to make records on
the highways, nor emulate the ire
sponsible chauffeurs who do risky
things to prove their proficiency.
Don't forget-that timid people have
more right to drive timid horses on
the highways than you have to fright
en- them by unreasonable speed of your
automobile.

Britishers Pegion Mad

A craze for flying pigeons has struck
| London recently. In one day 112 .OOG
young pigeons were liberated from
various parts of England, when many
produce stakes were decided. The
prizes awarded for the various COM
petitions amount to nearly $4,000. Con-
trary to general expectations the bird
generally travels home at slow speeds.
very few exceeding a velocity of 900
yards per minute or thirty miles per
hour.
The Lancashire and Yorkshire
produce youngsters carrying aluminium
rings on their legs were liberated at
Rugby, Worcester, Cheltenham, Glou-
cester and Bath, southwesterly wind
blowing at the time of their release.
On the journey home they encountered
sharp showers, and before they had
covered half the distance of from
ninety to 100 miles they were faced
by head winds from the northwest
hence the low speeds.
The Lancashire and Yorkshire prod
uce stakes have been won by birds
owned by the following fanciers

AT Worcester $4,000 birds belonging
to various Lancashire and North Stat
fordshire societies were liberated. The
wind was in the worst possible direc-
ton for their flight, it being from the
northwest and fairly strong.
The first batch was freed during the
morning hours, and the air through
out the day was thick with pigeons,
flock after flock sweeping with be-
wildering whir from the products of
) the station. AS they circled swiftly
over the ancient city they afforded a
pretty spectacle.

considered that the race was run on

AALAS HAVE
CLOSE RUB
Oespised Stars Play a
Very Gingery
Game.

A couple of Indifferent baseball games
rewarded a large crowd of visitors to
Kapiolani Park yesterday afternoon.
The games were Winter League fix
lures.
The AIohas beat the Makikis by 10
to 1 and it was miracle that the
latter were not shut out.
The game between the Aalas and the
Stars was closer and more interesting,
the former having to play all they
knew to whip the Stars. The score
was 13 to IL.
The stars, with only scratch nine,
put up a surprisingly good game, in
fusing more ginger into their play than
they have ever done before.
