famous bathing beach. Here, winter
and summer, the surf canoes, or bet

There Is no aensatlon quite eom-

riding a surf board on a Pacific roller.
It la tobogganing nn a moving hillside
of water, or, if you are clever enough
to stand tip on your hoard. It la taking
this hillside on a single big ski.
The beach runs far out before It
shelves Into deep water, and at high
tide the breakers be-in to mount al
most half a mile from the shore line,
You go out there with your surf board
and wait for the wave.
You learn to catch It at the right
moment, throw your ' hoard Inshore
and climb upon It Just as the crest of
the roller mounts and catches you.
Then on this crest you sail In toward
the shore, to slide down at last when
the wave breaks, down the foaming In
cline Into shallow water and churning
foam. It la royal aport.
