Agriculture In England.

AN ENTERPRISE THAT
MERITS YOUR SUPPORT.

Notwithstanding the amount of
shipping that is now lying idle in
the harbors and at the docks of the
United States, ocean travellers are
still obliged to pay high rates for
transatlantic travel, and an un.
psralleled opportunity to build up
the American Merchant Marine is
being lost. Recognizing this fact,
and realizing that the time was
opportune for an undertaking of
this nature, the organizers of the
Great Northern S. S. Co. formed
their Corporation, which received
its charter from the State of Mass
achusetts, October II, 1922.
They visualized a new ocean
steamship line, plying between
Boston and European ports, con.
trolled by the people, which would
offer to these same people chance
for ocean travel on comfortable
commodious ships, at a price with
in the reach of all, but large
enough to allow profit for the
investor and a sufficient margin to
allow for the carrying on and en-
larging of the enterprise.
This was their threefold pur-
pose-.to render a genuine service
to the people, to help build up
American shipping,-and to bring
business and trade to the port of
Boston.
In spite of the failure of the
Ship Subsidy Bill, in spite of the
opposition which each new COM
petitor in an established field en-
counters. this Company is bringing
its plans to maturity and expects
that very soon it will be able to
offer definite sailing dates to the
public.
This, surely, is an enterprise
that merits your support.

.pirit q the world than erer before:


Word reached the writer from Eng
land today that great satisfaction
prevails over the assurance that Jess
Swcetser, American amateur golf
champion, will compete in play for
the Walker cup with the team cap
tanned by Bob Gardner. Sweeser will
add great strength to the American
competition.
April o was a great day for Sweet
ser in New Haven. for on that day
he was given permission to make the
trip and he was awarded his major
"Y" for winning the national golf
championship. Few of those who
merely read Of Swcetser's doings on
the links know why these two excep-
tional acts were so fully justified.
A man in minor sport must do
something phenomenal to secure a
major "Y" and in the second place a
man must have some exceptional
scholarship standing to receive such
permission as this given Sweetser.
Sweetser is a student and his stand
ing has been good. He is an earnest
worker, not the least puffed IN by
his honors and a very human boy
who takes an interest in a great many
things beside golf.
