Herreshoff productions in the goft. schooner 
class, sloops Aurora, Winsome, Istalena and 
Avenger in the 57ft. class. The only outsider 
from this one family was Gardner-designed 68- 
footer Neola. 
Effort, the winner of last year, a Gielow boat, 
did not start, her owner not willing to let her 
be sailed unless he himself could do while 
others evidently were trying to get him to let 
SO, 
some one more experienced handle the boat, 
owing to the importance of the race. 
When the starting whistle blew at 11:25, 
Istalena was first across, followed by Winsome, 
Neola, Queen, Avenger, Aurora and Ingomar, 
holding purposely to last place, as it was a 
time start, each boat’s actual time of starting 
being taken and not all timed at the signal; by 
doing so Ingomar was able to use the boats 
ahead as weather vanes to assist in deciding on 
his course. 
Soon after crossing the line, all boats stood 
off on a long tack to port, heading in for the 
Narragansett shore. Istalena held the leading 
position until Queen came about to starboard 
and managed to cross her bows, taking the lead, 
which she maintained till the finish. Ingomar 
sailed splendidly and actually did slightly better 
than Queen in the 12-mile beat, doing it in 39s. 
less time. 
Neola beat Istalena’s time, 
windward, but both these boats lost 
vantage so gained on the runs.

Ballooners were set for the broad reach to the 
second mark, and seemed to almost lift the 
boats out of the water. Ingomar’s balloon jib 
had a turn in it half-way up the stay, and had to 
be hauled down and cleared, losing much valu- 
able time. The approximate times at the second 
mark were:

From here it was a close reach to the finish 
and smaller jib topsails were set. The times 
show that there was a good breeze, and that 
some excellent sailing was being done, for 
Queen covered the 12 miles in 53m. 55s. at a

ROWLAND E. ROBINSON’S 
Danvis Books. 
These books have taken their place as classics in the 
literature of New England village and woods life. Mr. 
Robinson’s characters are peculiar, quaint and lovable; 
one reads of them now with smiles and now with tears 
(and need not be ashamed to own to the tears). Mr. 
Robinson writes of nature with marvelous insight; his is 
the ready word, the phrase, to make a bit of landscape, a 
scene of outdoors, stand out clear and vivid like a 
startling flashing out from the reader’s own memory.
