Vrtughan, CX.Il. vice- president in charge of purchases and stores, is expected to arrive jou tonight's train on bis way to week on her maiden voyage. The. boat is skippered by Pete, while Ted is taking Hie position of first mate. Unlucky Thirteen That thirteen is an unlucky number was forcibly brought home to skipper L. C. Eby on bunday last during the return trip of his launch from Tugwell. it so happened that there were thirteen passengers in the boat but even at that the outgoing trip was one of considerable joy to the skipper and his freight of joy riders, and the thirteen "boo uoo was cast overboard. How ever, on the relurn trip when the engine began to cough like a giralle swallowing a roll of sandpaper, several of the lady passengers resurrected Hie hoo- loo. With heavy fog to contend with in addition to a thankless engine skipper Eby had as much trouble on hand as a woman with umpteen children and a wooden leg. To get to the point without sitting on it, the engine stopped and the launch lulled listlessly in a muddy atmosphere. At the psychological moment Hill Wrathall picked up the S.();S. and soon had the Eby craft in low. The going becoming a lillle irksome for Hill, the launch Lois M. skippered by Alex. Mcllae. was signalled and obliged by hooking the "umph" boat on the stern. Soon all was landed at the club floats. Do not think ,for a momenl dear reader, that Skipper Eby was the only one to have, trouble.' Even the president of a yacht cl.uh has his worries. After doing heroic work in lining up Hie parade all dressed up in iceberg pants on Sunday last president II. E. Benson had the misfortune to break the vital part of lil. pump, which caused him and his party a eood . ).-i1 nf ,iinv n Wormwood. '00kt,(, al 0e IMJ m lUous. ,,.p picnic would have to be called oir in recognition of the president's absence. However, jusl as the coffee was getting cold the l'oinseltia was sighted on the horizon and a sigh or thankfulness was sighed by the picnickers Yes sir, and in addition to) all this the Viola S., skippered by Hen Self, started wandering far from home on Hie relurn trip. The fog was a serious drawback even lo a skillful skinner like Hen. Although be tried to blow a hole into the fog from the bow or the boat, the idea was not a success. Afler going around in circles until Hie crew threatened to quit owing In severe headaches the. skipper picked upi the coast and eventually .reached home. The Canadian schooner Ini-perieuse, afler having been lied up for some considerables time, left port for the high spots on Tuesday morning with Capt. Ted Heinz at Hie gadgits. - Alex. Wylie, the famous Seal Cove boat builder, is building a halibut boat on his own ways. A wonderful improvement is noted around the Yacht premises. In addition to a new board sidewalk from the roadwav In Mia floats the club house, carelaker's aparlments and the floats are brilliantly lighted by eleclrio lights. The electric lights on the'l dolphins, are or the shaded variety and permit or launches entering their berths at night without being blinded by the electric rays. This is a much needed improrement for which the mem. hers arc duly thankful. I l Capl. Ceo.
