The wind was dead ahead for the en- { tire distance to the first mark, twelve | miles from the starting point. At the end of an hour the Meteor worked out ahead ed the other contestants. The Ciclly challenged the Meteor for the weather berth, her lead. The time at the first mark was 3 hours 24 minutes 40 seconds; Me- hours 28 minutes 20 seconds. As the wind had dropped a good deal, the sailing committee decided to short: the course by one side of the triangle ! and to instruct the yachts to come home direct from the first mark. The com- mittee consequently borrowed all available steam launches in the neigh- borhood and, with a member of the com mittee on board each, the launches stari- ed to intercept the yachts and inform them of the decision before they rounded the first mark. Acting under these instruetions, the rounded the mark and started for change of the course because the Meteor was coming on the reach, which would show her best points.

This feature of the meeting was more impressive than all that had preceded it. In the brilliant midst of “a fire of flowers and glowing grass” the singers stood and rendered most songs. Then on the stretch of sand be- low, at the very edge of the “image of eternity,” they knelt and prayed. An errnest address on “The Inducement for Power” was delivered by the Rev. Harry Hilliard of San Luis Obispo. The pulpits of the various churcg:! were occupied by delegates. The Con- gregational by Miss Anna G. Fraser of Santa Monica and Dr. Sara B.
