INCORPORATING

INCORPORATING
INCORPORATING is the art of owning
motor boat, or else of getting in
vited on one.
In nine cases out of ten the guest
has more fun than the owner. But
when the craft breaks down or casts
a shoe three miles from shore the
guest is often invited to get out and
walk.
Motor boats are of many sizes and
varieties, ranging from the palatial
gasoline yacht with a phonograph
and a chef, to the humble, greasy
scow with the two-horsepower hack
ing cough attachment.
Owners of motorboats, endeavor to
rival sailing yachtsmen in personal
beauty. About the time the ladies
are abroad and all is lovely, some
thing goes wrong with the motors
digestive works.
Then it's back to the monkey
wrench and the oil waste and pretty
soon the dainty white trousers look
as if they had been laundered in hot
chocolate. ..-
Motorboats are now guaranteed to
be dust proof. But when they are
also muss proof and cuss proof We'll
save the change from our gas bills
and invest in copy.
Any young man Of modest means
can own a motorboat. In order to
pay the bills, one must cut out drink
ing, billiards, bowling, cards, movies,
tobacco and cigarets. One must learn
to- eat on twelve cents day. One

must give up ones lodgings and
sleep on the boat. Using the en-
gine for pillow, you may rest very
comfortably, lulled by. the gentle
riplets. a.
The fastest thing on water is the
hydroplane. This is a new-fangled
motorboat, so stuck up about it's
speed that it keeps its nose in the air.
The faster it goes the higher it
sticks its bow. AS the bow is dis
placing only air instead of the briny,
the result is fifty miles an hour on a
glass track.
A twenty-foot hydroplane contains
enough machinery to capsize brew
cry. 1t totes enough gasoline to
blow the lake out from under it. Also
to spatter pieces of brass tubing and
speed maniac all over the landscape.
If you ever get invited on hydro
plane put on bathing suit consisting
of football armor, cork lined. But
ordinary INCORPORATING is quite safe,
thank you, and instead of life pre-
servers one can take along a mando-
lin, ones best girl and an all-day
smile.
After couple of trips you, too,
will contract motorboatitfs and begin
planning how to build one down Gel
lar with a blue print and a tack ham,
