Sail WeStWar0-hO ana away
With wonderful speech of Spanish
gold and the vast, rich countries "
ing to the West, Capt. John Ok, ~
ham was home again; and not prom
Ise he made but was increased ten
fold by his swearing henchman, Saliva
lion Yeo.
Amyas Leigh, stout Devon youth,
was afire to take the sea with Capt.
John as he listened; but his godfa-
Their, Sir Richard Grenvil, said he was
yet too young. Later, It might be. And
later he went, his first voyage being
with the famous Sir Francis Drake
around the world.
Following that voyage came fight
ing in Ireland in the company of Sir
Walter Raleigh and the poet Spenser;
and then an expedition with Sir Hum
phrey Gilbert wherein, because of mu-
TIMES, disease, ill-found ships and
great storms, Sir Humphrey met his
death; and Amyas came home in sad
ness.
At this time Amyas, with a score of
other Devon gallants, was In love with
Mistress Rose Salterne; but she was
for no Devon cavalier. A Spanish cap
.ain of bravery and charm was dwell
ing in Devon till his ransom should
be coming, and it was he who captured
the fancy of the lovely but capriciOus
Rose, and carried her off to Caracas.
whereof he had been appointed gov
ernOr.
Whether Rose went as Don Guz-
mans wife or leman, no one could say.
Mr.. Salterne. father to Rose, and rich
merchant of the port, gave ship anc
500 pounds toward the fitting out,
the same to be commanded by Amyas,
by now experienced in seamanship and
the handling Of rough men; and so
he sailed on his first venture on the
good ship Rose, of 200 tons burthen
and 100 men. with beef, pork and good
ale in abundance, and culverins,
swiYels, muskets, calivers, long bows,
pixies and cutlasses aplenty. He was
to discover the whereabouts and con-
dition of Rose if he could. but surely
to damage TO his utmost what Spani-
ards he should fall afoul of. A COM
mission TO his liking, for 1t was an
article of faith with Amyas, as with
most young English rovers of that day,
that all Spaniards were cruel and cow
ardly. even as his own great Queen
Elizabeth was all white purity. With
Amyas went Frank, his brother,
scholar and courtier, and mad like
wise for love of Rose Salterne; also
Salvation YeO, his own Captain Oxen
ham being long dead.
Westward they sailed to tropiC
shores; to low wooded hills, spangle0
by firef1ies; westward through won
drous seas where islands and capes
hung suspended in air. In a wooded
hight they spied a caravel, which they
captured, and in her they found store
Of brown pearls; also a cargo of sa!t
hides, which smelt evilly as they
burned.
Amyas sailed on TO La Guayara in
Caracas, finding Don Guzman not ut
home, but having sight of Rose Sal
terne, she being truly Don Guzman's
wife. in a garden of the govern rs
palace. In the fight with Don G>lz-
mans men Frank Leigh wal wounded
and captured. Afnyas Was Knocked

A Portuguese, Alberto Castillo

first cOffee-tree in Rio de Janeiro In
1850, and from this small beginning
has been developed the industry which
has made Brazil the greatest coffee
producer of the world.
Spiral springs have been invented
to be strapped around motorcycle tires
to give added traction on muddy roads,
While on smooth payements they jar

 THANKFUL FOR GIFTS

A message of thanks to those who contributed in the drive Of the New Britain Carity Organization for cIoth- ing for the poor, was issued today by Miss Cora Beale, agent of the organi- zation.
 Miss Beale's message follows:
 New Britain's generous response to the appeal of the Charity Organization for outgrown and partly used clothing has cheered the hearts of the workers. Every garment will be placed where the need is greatest; the children will be warm and the mothers happy in the possession of the much needed ad- ditional clothes which it was utterly impossible for them to purchase. Difficult as it always is for the widow to feed and clothe her family in ordi- nary times, justnow the outlook seem- cd hopeless with unemployment the new problem.
 Fully 50 kind hearted citizens left packages to be passed on to the needy, others have expressed their desire to give later. some have cloth ing to be collected. If any one still wishing to send their donations will phone the association rooms. 1277. all goods will be collected. The New Britain Charity orgnn1zation's most cordial thanks to alI who assisted at this time.''
