 devoted to the _Why_ (sailboat). The other day while Mother and I were coming in, rowing, we met him sailing out, and it was too cunning for anything. The _Why_ looks exactly like a little black wooden shoe with a sail in it, and the crew consisted of Archie, of one of his beloved playmates, a seaman from the _Sylph_, and of Skip--very alert and knowing. SKIP AND ARCHIE White House, October 23, 1906. DEAR KERMIT: Archie is very cunning and has handicap races with Skip. He spreads his legs, bends over, and holds Skip between them. Then he says, "On your mark, Skip, ready; go!" and shoves Skip back while he runs as hard as he possibly can to the other end of the hall, Skip scrambling wildly with his paws on the smooth floor until he can get started, when he races after Archie, the object being for Archie to reach the other end before Skip can overtake him.
