E. Walter Clark, former commodore of the Phila- 
delphia Corinthian Yacht club, treasurer of the syndicate 
that built the Defiance, a summer resident of Marblehead 
and a member of many yacht clubs, has the largest fleet 
of racing yachts owned by any one man in this country. 
Lately the has purchased the cup sloop Defiance from 
the other members of the syndicate and also the 65-foot 
sloop Istalena, which was owned by George M. Pynchon. 
ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO December 24th, 
there was signed at Ghent, in Flanders, the treaty 
of peace between Great Britain and the United States, 
which marked the close of what has happily proved to 
be the last war between English-speaking peoples of the 
earth. Today the city of Ghent is at the very center 
of the terrible conflict that rages in Europe. The Amer- 
ican Peace Centenary Committee cannot permit this anni- 
ersary to pass without inviting the thoughtful attention 
of their fellow citizens to the contrast presented by the 
century-long period of peace which English-speaking peo- 
ples have enjoyed among themselves on the one hand, 
and the appalling destruction of life, property and great 
monuments of civilization which the European war in- 
volves on the other. It had been our confident hope 
that the example which the English-speaking peoples have 
set in their relations with each other would be followed 
by the other great nations of the earth in their several 
international relations. 
that the spirit of peaceful and friendly cooperation which 
each of these peoples manifests toward the people of the 
United States would also mark their dealings with one 
another. Unfortunately this was not to be, and we are 
sorrowfully called upon to mark our centenary celebra- 
tion in the midst of the most terrible and destructive war 
that history records. 
Even at such a time, we must avow once more our 
emphatic faith in the supremacy of justice over force, 
of law over might. We rejoice in the peaceful relations 
of a hundred years among all Engl‘sajdood Surjeods-yst 
and particularly in the undefended and unfortified line, 
nearly four thousand miles in length, which divides the 
territory of the United States from that of the Dominion

In addition he owns the go-foot schooner Irolita, which 
he has raced for several seasons; the power boat Zipalong, 
used as tender to the Irolita, and a number of small craft, 
including the Marblehead one-designed 17-footer Skid- 
dymarink. Just what Commodore Clark intends to do 
with all these yachts is not known at present. It is said 
that he intends to change the Istalena to schooner rig. 
With the Istalena changed and re-rigged for the 1915 sea- 
son, what Commodore Clark intends to do with the Defi- 
ance is somewhat of a mystery. The majority of the 
yachtsman who followed the racing of the big cup sloops 
last season, have the opinion that the Defiance can be 
changed in rig so that she will show her real speed. 
There is no doubt that the hull of the Defiance has as 
speedy lines as either the Resolute or Vanitie. To make 
the changes necessary in the Defiance will be very expen- 
sive. On the other hand the sloop rigged as a schooner 
with a moderate sail plan, in the opinion of other yachts- 
men, would prove a very fast and comfortable cruiser. 
of Canada. The mutual trust, forbearance and helpful- 
ness which make that undefended boundary a link and 
not a barrier between two peoples, we offer as an example 
to our warring brothers across the sea. 
It had been our purpose, when our Committee was 
organized in 1910, to plan for a great celebration of the 
centenary anniversary by various methods which have 
now, because of the terrible war which is still convulsing 
Europe and disturbing the whole world, become imprac- 
ticable until the close of the conflict. 
But we appeal to the people in all the States and to 
all civic bodies to mark this notable anniversary by suit- 
able exercises in the churches of all denomiations on the 
14th of February, the date agreed upon for that purpose 
with our associate, the Canadian Committee; by formal 
addresses at the. Capitals of the respective States on the 
17th and 18th of February, the dates of the ratification 
and proclamation of the Treaty; and also by appropriate 
exercises in all the schools on the 22nd day of February, 
or on such later date or dates in the spring of 1915 4s 
may be locally deemed preferable. 
By which all the children of America should be in- 
structed on the significance of this great event, and of 
the happy prospect which is assured to us, in spite of 
this horrible war, of another century of continued peace 
between all the English-speaking peoples of the world.
