OVER THE OCEAN IN

AN OPEN BOAT

(Continued from Page 8)-

It was the exploit of the Cen- tennial which started William An- drows on his remarkable career. He did so much small boat work in the Atlantic that he is generally digni- fled with the name of Captain Andrews. But as a matter of fact: he was a worker in a piano factory, and had never had anything to do with the sea whatsoever, when he decided that he really must see the Paris Exhibition of 1878.

يسية

His brother Walter agreed with him and together they prepared the 20-foot Nautilus which they bud picked up for a song from a Grand Banker. They neither of them! knew anything about navigation beyond being able to read the com- pass card, but they reckoned that if they steered due East they would} have to hit Europe somewhere and} could then work North or South as; the occasion demanded. They fitted her with a centreboard and carried alateen sail and storm try sail.

By some mysterious means they made the mouth of the Channel, saw the Paris Exhibition and were ed in Europe for their gallantry.]

Douglas Fairbanke, Sr., arriving in New York from Europe aboard the liner, Rex, came through a barrage of questions without admitting anything about a possible reconciliation with Mary Pick- ford, although he was bound for Hollywood. He is shown on the "put" aboard the ship.
