At the Boat Clubs.

Both of the boat houses are now shut up for the winter. A number of carpenters are working at the new house to build a shed to cover the launches, which are drawn up on cradles along-side. The floats have been taken off and drawn up on the bank above high-water mark. Robinson, the new boat-builder, is now well started on a single, and when this is finished he will begin an eight-oar shell. He will not, however, have the time to build many new boats, as several of the old ones need repairing, and there is a good deal of work to be done in fitting up the rowing tank according to the plans of Professor Hollis.
