Ideal Course on Lake George
for Great Contest on
Last Three Days
of July.

Lake George, y. y, July 25. VITA
ten of the fastest motor boats in the
world entered, entries closed on Mon
day for the twelfth ANNUAL regatta for
the forty-foot class championship Of
North America. TO be held the last
three days Of this month on Lake
George.
These races are the most important
each vear in the motor boat world Of
this continent. the trophy being the
famous perpetual gold cup of the
American Power Boat Association. and
this annual contest has been largely
RESPONSIBLE for the wonderful develop
ment Of the speed boat in recent years.
From the date. only seven years ago,
when the Dixie astonished the world
with what was then considered the
marvellous speed Of twenty-nine miles
an hour hull designs and engine con-
s.ruction have been perfected until the
mile-a minute boat has almost been at
tanned. From the calibre of the entries
in this years races it is probable that
ali previous records will be shattered.
This prediction is based partly on
the claim that the course laid out on
Lake George is the fastest and easiest
race course in existence owing TO the
absence Of tide or current, depth Of
water and shape of the course. An
absolutely accurate course OF six nauti-
cal miles was surveyed on the ice last
winter. The race will be five times
around this course, thirty miles in all.
Additional interest lie lent the event
from the fact that il is one of the few
t,tp faf ~
events of any magnitude, the owners
and drivers Of the boats being sports
men who participate for mere love Of
the racing game. No admission is
charged md no cash prizes are offered.
The races will be held between 4
o'clock ard shutdown on each Of the
three days. July %. 80 and 81 -Wednes-
day, Thursday and Friday-and will be
run on the point system, a point to
enter. point 10 start. point for every
boat beaten and point to finish. leay-

until the last day.
There will also be held in the morn
ing Of each of the three days races
for the onc-mile championship Of
North America. held for the first time
under the sanction Of the American
Power Boat Association. A magnii-
cent cup, to be known ms the Lake

WHAT DYSPEPTICS

indigestion and practically all
forms of stomach trouble are, nine
times out of ten, due to acidity; there
fore stomach sufferers should, when
ever possible, avoid eating food that
is acid in it's nature, or which by
chemical action in the stomach devel-
ops acidity. Unfortunately, such a
rule eliminates most foods which are
pleasant to the taste as well as those
which are rich in blood, flesh and
nerve building properties. This is the
reason why dyspeptics and stomach
sufferers are usually so thin, ema-
ciated and lacking in that vital en-
erSy which can only come from well
fed body. For the benefit of those
sufferers who have been obliged to
exclude from their diet all starchy,
sweet or fatty food, and are trying to
keep up a miserable existence on glu
