What. then. is the motive behind
this unusual sport? Certainly it can
not be pure love Of sport, because that
love could be satisfied in more
| enduring fashion in a dozen other
enterprises. Nor can it be desire
for exclusiveness The men who en-
gage in cup races are hardly the type
to engage in sport for the mere pur-
pose Of being exclusive. The Wander
biltS. Sopwiths. Liptons, Adamses,
1SellnS. Morgans and PaineS have been
men of the world who have shown no
evidence Of monastic tende1Cy in their
numerous activities.
The only answer, then is patriotism
1t was patriotic fervor which sent
the owners Of the first America to
Europe seeking whom they might
| conquer. And it is patriotism which
has led Englishmen for 86 years to
try to recover the only trophy the
America ever won. The pride OF
British yachtsmen was severely in
jured in their ignominous defeat by
the America in 1851 And their own
newspapers and sports loving public
rubbed salt in the wound when the
Americas owners sailed for home IN
disgust after having been refused a
the best England could offer. Like
wise, it was patriotism which caused
the owners of the America to select
the New York Yacht Club as custodian
Of the cup to be raced for In inter-
national competition.
In the early days of the Republic,
when patriotism meant largely pride
in the overthrow of the British yoke,
the sea spelled wealth to a large part
Of the American population. The
fishing boats of New England and the
Chesapeake were original and fitted
perfectly to the work for which they
were intended. The whalers of New
Bedford were training the most eficient

boat to do it. You can't use the boat
for anything else when you've finished

MODERN ART TRENDS, SUB
JECT OF EXHIBIT OPENING
AT 'U' GALLERY, JUNE 26
If, when you started to read this,
you were on your way to a riot,
fire, or to see Karloff in his most
recent horror role, then save your
energy you'll need it) and go over
to the University Art Gallery any
time from Saturday, June 26th to
July oath and take a peek at what
is being billed as the most unique
art exhibit in the country today
the Fantastic Art, Dada, and Sur
realism Exhibition from the Mu-
scum of Modern Art in New York.
How can we say that we're not
spoofng you when we say that the
pencil drawing that Johnny brought
home from his first grade class has
slight edge over some of the stuff
that is in the exhibition; or that
the nightmare that you had last
night has the same tone as the
famed surrealist Dali's works or
perhaps those of de Chirico whose
hobby is the painting of empty
squares that inspires one with
feeling of mystery and fear. Per-
haps the most unique object in the
exhibit is Oppenheim's "Object
1886: Fur-Lined Cup, Plate, and
Spoon" which from all appearances
seems to have been created with
Misunderstanding.
Our advice to you is this. Don't
go with an idea that you are going
to see some beautiful paintings of
flowers, trees, etc., because you
won't. Much of the stuff is re-
pulsive to many people. Carry your
own smelling-salts because it will be
in demand and if you feel yourself
fainting away, rush for a door for
fresh air.
The Gallery is located on the
University of Minnesota campus in
Northrup Memorial Auditorium on
the fourth floor and third floor cor
ridor. During the run of the exhibit
the Gallery will open at 9 a. m.
and close at 6 p. m. every day ex-
cept Sunday when it will be open |
from 2 p. m. to 80. p. m.

on her vacation this summer.
Would you suggest that l make
this trip?
Ans.-Of course you should drop
everything and make this trip to
BERMUDA with your friend.
Money doesn't appear to be a prob
lem with either you or your friend
and a months vacation at this re-
sort will bring about a complete
change in you.
G. S. C.-Tell me, please, if my
husband will remain here all of
this summer as l would like him
to?
Ans.-It will be necessary for
him to make the trip out of the
city and he will SECURE EN-
PLOYMENT. / am afraid that
you will be disappointed again for
it is very evident that he will re-
main out of the city for another
summer and work.
o. C.-Will 1 ever marry the
man that l am in love with and
will this business ever pay?
Ans.-Marriage will not take
place within the next eighteen
months for you and this party.
The business that you two are con-
nected with could be worked up so
that it would pay fair income =.
but it will take quite a bit more
of your time than is being given to
it at the present.
A. R.-Will the girl that 1 love
wait for me and is there a chance
of my getting out of here?
Ans.-Your girl friend is still
very much in love with you, and
still has confidence in your ability
to do the right thing and live right
when you are free. Good behavior
goes a long way with people in
your circumstances so I suggest
that you hold this in mind always.
| Your sentence won't be as long as
you expect.
H. M. S.-Why did the boy that
1 have been going with stop coming
all of a sudden and does he love
me?
Ans.-He never did love you .
he admired you but thought it best
to call it quits before the affair
became serious. Take this little
"shake down" like man and don't
begin crying on someone's shoulder
for it is only natural that every
one get a "jolt" of this kind in
their lives.
P. P. K.-I don't have many
friends and l am old. Will l get
any kind of pension and what
should l do this year?
Ans.-Remain where you are
this year as you have many
friends around your place. When
the laws in your state are passed
upon and are in effect you will be
among those who will come under
the pension regulations. 1t will be
some time yet before this matter
swings into action.
L. B. J.-YOu have helped me be-
fore and l am coming to you
again. What must 1 do about my
arm and will it ever get back to
normal again?
Ans.-Don't waste any more
precious time trying to treat the
condition of your arm for you
aren't saving one cent. Let a
doctor see it and he will be able to
prescribe and cure this condition.
See one at once.
M. M. K.-Why has my husband
changed so much towards me? Is
there another woman or am l to
blame?
Ans.-Your husband is a "big
baby" and he just can't seem to
exist without affection and coddlng
that he received when you two
were younger. Yes-you are
somewhat to blame for his actions
for you have taken him a bit for
granted here of late. Give him
affection or he may seek elsewhere
for it.
L. P.-DOes he really love me
and will he divorce his wife and
marry me as she says?
Ans. - He is just foolish"
enough to do it but don't you
