your dad will get you the boat, I'll buy
you the motor for It,"
Little attention was paid to the
remark at the time, but as DR.. Gill
tells it, when the motor came a week
later, there was nothing for me to do
but get the boat"
Mother Not So Favorable.
MOTHER GILL, 1t is learned, was
not so favorably inclined 1T the
first mention her youthful offspring
was to take the waves as a driver, and,
indeed, other fond parents might have
been similarly alarmed at such step.
But, as those who use the water will
point out, there Is less danger out
there than on most Washington streets
and If one can swim, what of the
age? Especially when he Is inclined
and able.
What competition, II any, young
Gill will get around here remains to
be seen, as he is thought to be the
youngest driver In the vicinity. But
around 1945 he should be ready to
burst his daddys chest when he has
the accelerator all the way down in
one Of the Presidents Cup Regatta
races.

Registrations Fall OF.

IT WOULD seem that the turn in
registration increases has come.
The total in February, 1897, was e,325,
compared to 1850 for the same month
in 1886, and Of the IL leading breeds
only three showed an increase. Cocker
spaniels still maintain the impetus
they gathered In the last months of
1886; greyhounds still show a very
large increase, as racing greyhound
owners continue to transfer their reg
istrations to the American Kennel
Club stud book. The third breed to
show an increase is the D6berman
pinscher. Probably some of that may
be ascribed, to the remarkable show
record Of Jockel Brugund, . Dobe
that has gone best in show 4 number
Of times recently.
1t would not be surprising,
however, to see not only regis
trations but the number Of
shows drop of.
The number OF shows scheduled has
grown to the point where 1t Is EN-.

The couple nod condescendingly and
ask to see the rest of the collies. As
they are brought in husband and wife
exchange meaningful looks and whs-
pered remarks. When the whole ken

Some people dropped him in front Of
our house three years ago, so we don't
know his pedigree, but he is thor

broader, his nose isn't so sharp and
his ears stand right up. He Is much

announcement of the Virginia Com

Sales Are Haphazard.


JUST as the family is getting ready
to sit down to midday dinner, the
first possible customer arrives, a party
consisting Of mamma, papa, brother,
sister and the baby. Question No. /,
before anybody disembarks, will they
bite?" Being assured they won't bite,
mamma asks to see the Shetland sheep
dogs. Proudly the choicest sheltie on
the place is called forth, near
champion. One Indifferent look and
mamma says: That's no sheep dog.
That's just little collie. 1t doesn't
have any hair over its eyes" K. o.
points out that his advertisement ex-
planned that Shetland sheep dogs we're
miniature collies, and that mamma
probably was thinking Of Old English
sheep dogs, which have hair over the
eyes. But mamma goes of in huff
muttering that sheep dogs have hair
over the eyes.
In the meantime brother, sister and
the baby have been having lovely
time in the puppy pen, squeezing and
mauling all the littlest pups and driv-
ing the poor little mother dog nearly
into Mysteries. When K. o. shoot
the children out of the pen, papa i
heard to mutter that he doesn't want
q pup the kids can't play with.
Later in the day \ couple
drive in and ask to see . tri-
color male collie. Fortunately
there Is one available. He Is Of
unexcelled pedigree, . beautiful
and intelligent dog.

Dick Doyle, member OF Capital

commodore Of that organization, and
in that capacity will greet members
and guests At the clubs formal open-

from $50 until 7:30 o'clock.
Capital was founded on october 10,
1892. On that date, and for many
years after, only sail boats were owned
by the clubs members. 1t was not
until after the war that power boats
came to exceed the wind-blown craft
In number, but . rapid develoment
In both classes the past few years
has seen large number Of power and
sail boats in Capitals fleet.
Doyle owns the 46-footer Margretan
and won the undying favor OF mem
bers Of the Potomac River Sailing As
sociation last year when he used to
tow the sailors down to Hams Point
for their weekly races.
Franklin Schneider, who owns the
Privateer, is the clubs new vice COM
modore and Dan Fowler, skipper Of the
Gadabout Is the secretary treasurer.
I P AT Potomac Boat Club Presi-
dent George Herman and three
otdcers have been unanimously re-

years attended the sixty-eighth annual

HITHERTO compelled to race the
Thursday and Friday of the re-
gatta week end, local sailing author
tiles have been unable to attract an
out-of-town entry in keeping with the
national caliber of the regatta Sailors
it seems, depend on week ends as do
most working men, and days before
Saturday were not made for travelling
on the part of the majority.
Now, through persistence of the
Potomac River Sailing Association,
all the sail events are scheduled for
Saturday and Sunday, September 18
and l9 A prediction that twice as
many sail boats as competed last year
will be in this Falls classic is the
first reaction of the city's leaders of
that group. Approximately 100 raced

A 0AAN snIS year the virginia

4 a day. It will close June 30.
Opening as 1t does is days later
than the Maryland season, there Is
some hope that conditions will be 4
whole lot better. Surely they could
not be worse. Streams, from an early
week end report, are in fairly good
condition, having risen only slightly rs
. result Of last weeks rain. There is
not . whole lot Of snow water, except
In some streams in the northwest sec
ton, and water temperatures on the
average are much higher than they
were this time last year.
If the weather remains clear
and warm for the next few days
there b . strong possibility that
the water will not be much
higher than normal
Under these conditions there will be
no necessity for liver fishing, and even
little need Of worms. It still will be q
bit early for dry flies. but few STAN

not merely because they
run up their canvases in competitive
atmosphere for the first time this
month.
Rather it is because, before single
boat has gone overheard, members of
the Potomac River Sailing Association
have persuaded the Presidents Cup
Regatta Association into agreeing to
an objective which has been the
sailors since first they were granted
an integral part of the annual re-
gatta here.
When the Executive Committee of
the association decided to allow the
sailors to stage the sailing events of
the Presidents Cup Regatta the week
end before the powerboat races they
not only gave shippers of wind-driven
craft their own distinct spot on the
program, but also paved the way
toward the biggest and best field ever
to compete in that group.
