Did Good Work The Prince lluperl Yacht Club regatta held on 'Thursday was by far and away Ihe best public event ever staged by the amateur mariners and its seems lo be the general opinion that so success ful were Ihe races Hint a similar day will bo put on annually.

Henson, director, who left no stone un turned to give the visitors a real good time, In staging a regatta there is a lot of detail work to be done such as anchoring buoys, erecting flags, measuring Ihe course, arranging for re freshnieiils, elo. which all takes time and effort, and unless these Utile things are attended to in a proper manner something goes amiss and the edge of enjoyment is taken olT Ihe proceedings. A word of praise is also duo lo George Richmond who, as usual catered so royally and liberally lo Ihe visitors of the day. Miss Helen S.
