Ceylon II K 1 28AuKhf Association of Cowes With British Yachting Goes Back .Many Years THE association of Cowes with yachting goes back many centuries; back, indeed, to the spacious days of Queen Elizabeth, for it was in 1588, the same year that her admirals defeat- ed tbe Spanish Armada, that Queen Elizabeth had built for her, in th« shipyards of Cowes, "a pleasure boat." Cowes, however, had little more to do with yachting until the establishment of the Royal Yacht Squadron in 1812, and it never really seriously took up the matter until the golden age of yachting, which began about the year 1870. During racing week the morning papers give the even,ts for the day, and the even- ing papers report the winners. PZvery house in Cowes has its visitors, every avallabl'e hotel ia filled to overflow- ing. The waters of Cowes Roads are filled with all manner of yachts, large and small, while across the blue Solent is seen the green and gray of the Hampshire downs, rising against the blue sky beyond Ports- mouth. The view from the famous parade is an animated one at all times, for the Solent is never dull. When there are no yachts, there are warships; when there are no war- ships, there are great liners making their way slowly between the island and the mainland, from Southamp- ton down the Channel, and so away to the west. Nowadays, of course, it is all very different. There are few yachts in tbe Solent, and the great ocean liners no longer turn their sterns to "the Island" and steam off up Southamp- ton Waters, or, bow on, come down out of the north, where Gosport hails Ryde across the narrow channel, for Southampton is a closed port. No- thing, however, can take away from the Old World beauty of Cowes itself or its surroundings, for it is singu- larly beautiful for situation. It is a twin town, of course. East and West Cowes, one on either side of tb4> Me- dina, a name which always falls so exotically on tbe ear. Each town is an urban district, and the port be- tween them is the chief on« on tbe Island, and the headquarters of the Yacht Squadron. Behind- it all the bouses rise picturesquely on those gentle wooded slopes which are so characteristic of tbe Isle of Wight. The towns owe their origin to two forts, or castles, built on each side of the mouth of the Medina by Henry VIII., about the year 1540, as part of his great system of coast defense. Tbe eastern one has disappeared, but tb« western one remains, and is used as a clubhouse of the Yacht Squadron. Then, close to it. is the marine parade of West Cowes. and the famous public promenade, so well known to the visitor as "the Green." And it is "the Green" that is, perhaps, the center of Interest during Cowes Week. It Is here that that curious, indefinable thidg called society marks the end of another season. At Cowes, in Cowes Week, society has definitely left London behind. Before the day of the motor car made it possible to %e^ back and forth BO easily, -society was wont, perhaps, to shake off the dust of London when it went to Goodwood. Nowadays, it has put off doing so until it comes to Cowes. After Cowes, there is a scattering to coun- try houses, and "events of the sea- son" iirc at an end. And so, by day and night, "the Green," in Cowes Week, is a scene of much animation; but it is at night, perhaps, that those who hav« ever attended the famous week will remember It best, for it is at night that the sea and the sky swm to met-ce Into one, the sky spangled with stars and the sea with countless little lights, white, red, and green, with, every now and again, a verit- able constellation marking the place where a yacht, or a. warship, illum- inated to the masthead, is riding at anchor.

The parish cluirch of South HacK- ney Is ultra-modern in its dceora- tions. It has, at its west end, the fragment of a zeppclin, with the In- scription: "Portion of zeppelitt brought down at Cuffley in Septem- ber, 1916, after Having passed over South Hackney. Offered by the War Office to the parish church. For the daring and the courage of our avia- tors, we praise Thy name, O Lord I" There can be no question of lack of appreciation there, and the example of South â€"Hackney parish church might be followed with advantage by those ridiculous people â€" they are happily not numerous â€" who vent their annoyance, at being bombed, on the British aviator, than, whom no more "lion-hearted" tighter exists, nor more successful, provided he is given a chance. llark for Tunners. Considerable quantities of the bark of the South African wattle-tree have been Imported into the United Kingdom from Natal In recent years, but most of it prior to the war wds exported to Germany and Belgium. Since then, wattle-bark has been utilized to a far greater ext'cnt by tanners In this country. Straw Hats. The straw-hat trade of Luton and Dunstable and other places in the neighborhood depends upon the fact that the straw used for plaiting Is grown on adjacent c'lalk land. The plant has great affinity for the silica in the chalk and flints, and uses It for coating the outside of the stalk with Us beautiful glass-pipe corer- ing. , rower Plauta in Bombay.
