Five years ago last summer seven
master schooner was launched from a
Massachusetts shipyard, with the name
Thomas w. Lawson. Probably her own
ers did not then realize the handicap this
name would be to a vessel of whatever
size. 1t is certain that for time the
seven-ma sted Lawson occupied as large
a place in the public mind as her seven
tongued sponsor did later. She was the
biggest thing afioat moved by wind. 1t
later proved that the man whose name
she bore was the greatest wind artist
known to several generations. Thus the
schooner Lawson was a consistent per-
former. She had a troubled career, as
has her godfather. She has been In
heavy storms and has been crippled.
She has suffered under the suspicion that
a hoodoo lurked somewhere between her
decks She was financial failure as a
coal barge and then went into the oil
carrying business. Shades of the orig
inal discoverer of petroleum, what a CON-
mentary, The Thomas W. Lawson car
rying the products of Standard Oil! Help
ing along the biggest factor OF the Sys-
tenn, Making more profits for the buc-
cancers, Awful thought!
But retribution has come at last to this
