GEORGE WILKES AS PACING SIRE.

GEORGE WILKES AS A PACING SIRE.
 The recent interview in the Christmas issue of the Review with the owner of George Wilkes, gentleman who bought him as three-year-old and kept him for p years, leaves no doubt that the great sire of trotters has as fair a license to be called a pacer as a trotter. Mir Simmons unequivocally says that George Wilkes was faster pacer than anybody's horse not double gaited, but pacer pure and true, and this assertion will forever put stop to the interrogation points which have punctuated the rhetoric of the many turf writers who have wondered why so many of the Wilkes took to pacing. Over a third of his descendants in the 2.30 list are pacers and when we consider the fact that he stood all his life in a trotting state and perhaps was not bred to purely pacing mare ir his life, we may form some idea of the intensity of the pacing instinct in his breeding.
 Nervy mares are the ones to breed.
 First class trainers are not abundant.
 Pacers lead most of the snow brigades.
 Half way methods will never do in the horse business.
 George Wilkes heads the Hambleton- ian family stronger than ever.
 A horse is worth just what can be got for him, ,and his ability governs the price.
 There is no objection to having little thoroughbred blood in trotter, provided it will trot. It is the running part of the game that makes the public weary.
 Public auction sales of trotters during the past year conveyed a silent lesson to breeders. They demonstrated that short bred stock brought short prices.
 No man knows the pleasure to be had with horse until he treats him as a friend and fellow laborer. and carefully considers his comfort in all particulars.
 Much horse power and distress is saved by starting slow and driving moderately the first hour. Never start fast.

MANAGING A HORSE BY KINDNESS.
 The manager of a large stable says ''We enforce kindness by stringent disci- plne. When we hire man we tell him that horse can be managed better by kindness than by harsh methods and that striking, kicking or any abuse of a horse will insure his prompt discharge. Hor. ses are anxious to obey and it is better to convey our wishes by words or ges lures than by blows.

THE THERMOMETER ON A TEAR.

THE THERMOMETERS ON A TEAR.
 The thermometer, Saturday morning, registered three degrees above zero with fluctua tions, no doubt, to three degrees or more, resulting from the locality. This is our coldest. This gives rise to frosty windows and cold hands, unless nicely housed in warm gloves and mittens. A uniform temperature like this for six weeks would doubtless be conducive to health. The grip is with us to some ex- tent. Mir Hine does not seem to improve as we would wish. Mrs Brague is under the doctors care. Aside from this we do not hear of any new cases. Bundle up well, Is as good acvice as can be given to those who are much outside, or away from a coal or wood fire.
 As to the South Manchester school under the care of the Normal at New Britain, whatever we may call the sys- tenn, there are features of it which are highly to be commended. One is the workshop where boys, and girls too, suppose, learn to use tools. All are probably trained in the SlOjd system of wood work. It is the normal school at work with the children at South Man. chester, while at New Britain teachers are likewise trained to use the plane, saw, compass, rule, etc. It is not con- fined to the boys. How important that a girl or young lady, as part of her ed ucation, learn to use tools. Drive a nail into a board without letting the blow of the hammer fall on the fingers. How convenient to be able to saw a board in two, or plane it, if need be, make box etc. Have we not hands to be cultiva ted. The industrial feature of the nor. nal school, with all it's appendages, is fal in advance of the old time training, anC we hope it is the beginning of a more perfect education of the young, which will emerge from the experimental into a fixed policy i'll all great centers, ol graded schools and academies. Is thCrC any objection that a girl l2 or II should not gather with her mates and listen tC an expert in the culinary art, and bC taught the best way of cooking this O that? Will such instruction be easily eradicated from her mind when she i grown up, and shall be called to be thu head of a family? Whatever objections may be raised in detail in other depart ments of the normal training, the phys ical department will counterbalanc' sundry defects elsewhere. We hop therefore that the three remaining year for the experiment in the South Man chester school will suffer no interrup tiOn in it's on-plow.
