To the Editor Of The Tribune.

o tne Editor OF Tho Tribune.
Sir: AS ono Of the two "enterprisine
youngsters"-the other was Mrs. Wood
who, thirteen years ago, "sailed round
Cape Cod in q canoe and lived to tell
the tale" I beg you will permit ME to
! challenge the wisdom Of the philosophy
Of your editorial Of November "a
Deep Ses Yachting" Upon such q
philosophy was never great seafaring
nation founded.
There Is in the heart Of every rugged
and valiant people that which demands
Of its most searching sports the pres
ence OF hardship and danger. 1t is as
if nature ever is saying to Its elect
Come with all your skill against my
elemental furies and Justify, if you
can, your claim to the dominion Of the
world" And, as if man as ceaselessly y
is rep ing: "You have given me a
spirit that puts danger beneath pur-
pose, duty before death, and will not
be gainsaid; otherwise I should not
reign upon EARTH"
only those are At to live who do
not fear to de-" said Roosevelt. The
heroic sports Of life are the touchstones
by which the mettle of peoples is tested
in times Of peace. Among these are
exploration, big game hunting, noun
tain climbing and other daring adven-
lures OF land and ser and air, in all
which the records OF Americans are
unsurpassed.
Among such heroic sports is yacht
ing-coursing the waters for the mere
JOY Of their fellowship--if yachting BE-
carried to its ultimate power. It is
here that you err in saying Of the
Typhoon's feat that taking such
chances Is not sensible yachting, how
ever glorious as stunt" Had the world
put such limitations upon the heroic
sports enumerated above, no man would
ever have gone beyond sight of land,
or into the wilderness, or above timbe r
line, or to north or south, or under
the seas and into the air. We should.
alas! be poor indeed, for mans having
so early learned the slogan, safety lirst.
which SO often is too literally preached.
We should search history in vain for
the names Of the adventurous great to
hom We owe the modern world. Gone
would be the hardy Imagination that
spurs on to heroic deeds Of valor and
the skill to achieve them. born Of dan
gerous hours Of preparation.
There arc some matters Of life in
which things other than personal safe
ty should be first Among these Is the
business of gaining mastery Of the sea,
an art that can be national only to the
extent that IL has been gained individu
ally by the cttizens Of lation. If men
IN great numbers dare the rieors Of the

BosroN, Feb 1s.--Opposition TO the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River tide
water project by the New England
Traffic League was urged in report
of special committee of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce made public to-
day The committee expressed the
opinion that the proposed Improvement
Of the international waterway would
more likely accrue TO the benefit of the
Dominion Of Canada rather than to the
section of the country which is so ener-
getically pushing it."
More than one-half Of the taxation

States for the cost of the waterway,
which is estimated at from S10O,0O0,OOO
to $500, 100000. the report said. would

story and we know that there was no

set parking"
Miss Gertrude Ingersoll. daughter Of
George Pratt Ingersoll. former Minister

The story is a lot OF base lies. It's
a shame the Babies Aid Society, trying
10 do a good work, should be associated
with base gossip. There was no drink
ing and none of the other things
charged happened. Two or three college
boys may have had drink or two or
liquor. but that was all"
Miss Ingersoll was president OF the
Babies Aid Society until recently.
Charles Eddy Fay. who with his wife
was interested in the recent organization
OF a Parents Association here. said the
society was organized because of a
variety of causes He denied that these
two dances were responsible for the or
ganization of the Parents Association.
Mr.. Fay said neither he nor his wife
had any personal knowledge that girls
partook Of intoXicants at these TWO
canoes or removed thea corsets, and he
said he could not refer u reporter to
any one who had any such personal
knowledge. He admitted however, that
he had heard "rumors" of such things.
