Harvard-Yale FLYERS,

Fourteen hours and twenty minutes is
the record of the new triple steel
turbine steamship Yale of the Metropoli-
tan steamship line between Boston and
New York. Her sister ship, Harvard, is
accounted equally as speedy. They have
each averaged twenty-one knots, and on
almost every trip thus far this season have
covered the distance between New York
and Boston on the all-the- way by water
route well within schedule time.
This fact once established was all that
the travelling public required to know
in order to feel satisfied that the promises
of the Metropolitan Steamship Co., re-
garding the new express passenger and
freight service between Boston and New
York have been fulfilled. The sumptuous
furnishings and extraordinary conven-
fences and accommodations of the Har-
ward and Hale, together with excellent
cuisine and service in general, are points in
connection with the new express turbines
which appeal to all.
The leaving time, both from Boston and
New York, is 5 p. m. daily, Sundays in
cluded, and the ships are due at the port
of destination on the following morning
at O'Clock.

The poem you sent follows:

S. J. Y. and Sadie, your letters and
clippings were like GASES in barren des-
ert, and appreciated accordingly. I un-
derstand how much the nieces find to do
at this season. Perhaps ''find" is not the
best word to use there, for find" implies
search, and am certain the majority of
housewives do not have to search for work
to occupy their time just now.
II, to some Of you, after the efforts put
forth and labor gone through, like S. J. Y,
there comes time to look on the results
OF that labor with satisfaction, am glad
if you can rest and enjoy it. What are
those lines something like this?
There is many rest in the road of life,
If we only would stop to take it,
While another weary on the kings
highway sadly chants:
"oh it is sometimes hard, this onward march
ing,
Forever on, through sunshine and through
rain,
Marching as if we trod a field of battle
Ger hopes and fears that never come again.
Well, we'll, when l wrote the word
"hopes", it occurred to me that the senti-
ment of the last stanza was little too
doleful for column with 'shopefuI,
motto. still, some tired reader may find
it ''helpfup' to know that another traveller
had an experience like her own.

A beautiful and large silver loving
cup was given recently to Secretary
Shaw by his own Christian Endeavor
Union, that of Andover, Mass The
inscription, below the G. e. monogram,
is as follows: Presented to William
Shaw, General Secretary of the United
Society of Christian Endeavor, by the
Andover Christian Endeavor Union,
1907"
The Andover union consists of six
societies of average size and quality,
part of them in the town and part in
the country. Every member of the
union gave his share toward the pur-
chase of this cup. That fact shows
two things. One Of them is the univer-
sal honor in which Mr.. Shaw is held
at his own home. The other is the bust
nesslike way in which they do things
in that union.
