brought you first to Boston nor the mixed cargo 
that you carry home to Newfoundland. The 
glories of your past, the needs of your old age 
are in tender hands. And along the top stringer 
of the dock are a row of keen sympathizers, 
each conscious of your proud history, mindful 
of your present beauty and filled with affection¬ 
ate regard for you. 
Louis M. Clark, Esq., has accepted an ap¬ 
pointment as one of the Yachting Commis- 
! sioners of Jamestown Exposition, thus round¬ 
ing out the staff and making it representative of 
all the prominent yachting centers. While Mr. 
Clark is well known as a keen racing man ana 
[ skilful yachting legislator, it is not always re¬ 
called at what personal inconvenience he gives 
his time to the fulfillment of such duties as this 
which he has now undertaken. A prominent and 
very busy attorney, such as he is, finds it no 
small matter to steal time from his professional 
duties for even such labors of love as service in 
the interest of yachting. 
The Lynn Y. C. has secured an option on a 
parcel of land on the water front at the head of 
Marblehead Harbor, and is to erect a modest 
house thereon, with the usual float facilities, 
early in the spring. This is but one more bit of 
cumulative evidence of the centralization of 
yachting at Marblehead. It will be a great boon 
to a very large fraction of the Lynn Y. C. mem¬ 
bership and will add further lustre to the yacht¬ 
ing diadem of that charming old port.

Canoeing. 
A. C. A. 
Newark, N. J., Jan. 1. — To the Members: It 
is a great pleasure to greet you thus early in 
1907, and extend my best wishes for a happy 
new year, hoping that some of that happiness 
will be obtained from our little friend the-canoe, 
and our bigger friend, Sugar Island, on which 
the meet will be held from Aug. 9 to 23. By 
strange conincidence, and rare good luck, the 
moon will be with us from start' to finish—be¬ 
ing “new” on the opening day, and “full’ though 
sober, on the closing day. 
At this time there is not very much informa¬ 
tion in detail to give you, and while I do not 
believe very much in making promises, of one 
thing you may be sure—there will be “some 
things doing” this summer, and several come 
into my mind regarding the meet, that in a gen¬ 
eral way will be of interest. 
I expect the racing this year will astonish you, 
and not only the sailing this time, but the 
paddling as well. The Racing Board has 
definitely settled the racing regulations, and 
briefly, points of importance are as follows:
