Goodwood. in spite Of the presence Of King Ed
ward and OF other members Of the reigning house
has never been popular meeting with AneFi-
cans abroad It is difficult OF access from Lon
don. and people are dependent entirely upon the
hospitality of the country houses in the vicinity.
The regatta at Cowes Immediately afterward is
likewise no longer IN such favor with Americans
in previous years, and a smaller number OF
boats flying the Stars and Stripes will be seen on
the Solent this summer than ever before; this too
in spite of the fact that the Cowes week bids fair
to prove exceptionally brilliant by reason OF the
presence Of the young King and Queen OF Spain

than at GOodwoOd or at Cowes.
