Shortly after the start the R./4. matted their first goal, and the "D.C.F. J. made a gallant attempt to equalise. One of their men succeeded in getting past the goalkeeper, but unfortunately for his side, ho was within the two yori line. How ever, play continued strenuous in the vicinity of the R.A stronghold, and the keeper was soon noaplussed by a sharp and well directed shot. Shortly after. words the Artillery were agrin called upon to defend, and before the whistle sounded half-time the Cornishmen had ngain broken through their defence.
At the beginning of the second half the Artillery assumed the aggressive, and it was not long before they registered another goal. Then the D.C.L.I. mude a brilliant rally and pressed their opponents hard. One of the forwards drove in a shot which bounend off the horizontal bar of the goal. Another followed which struck the upright, but the man whoi essayed the third shot succeeded in defeats. ing the keeper, and when the whistle sounded the score was, D.C.L.I, 3 goals; Royal Artillery, 2.

When the question Portuguese families in the Colony, and of boat accommodation first arose het applied his inventive mind to the con- which, without extravagance of space, struction of a practicable form of davits would enable a big vessel to carry a larger number of boats than the existing forms of davits allows for. He evolved a set of davits which may be roughly described as two capital T's-that is, two standards. rising from the deck and each topped with a cross beam. From and between the extremities of the cross-bcams suspended three boats on either side, six in all.
