Day had a walk over, practically, in
the fourth race. The Swain was the
favorite Tor the fifth race, but Captain

furious driving of Simms. Halfling, at
the remunerative odds of 10 to l, won
the last race. Sloane claimed a foul
against McCafferty on Kennel, who got

DIR. HOLMES SCHOOLMATE.

One of the most amusing of DR.. Holmes
experiences was a meeting when he was
already past his prime with an old Andover
schoolmate.
The doctor had given lecture in Mas
sachusetts city and the next day his host,
a leading citizen, took him ont for drive
about town. The doctor espied over door
name that long ago was familiar to him.
His entertainer made the introduction. but
the merchant showed more interest in the
citizen than in his understood guest.
The doctor inquired if he was not stu
dent in Phillips, Andover, in 1925. The
merchant replied that he was there at that
time.
"Do you remember boy there named
Holmes Oliver Wendell Holiness"
After slight hesitation he answered
eyes. Little fellow, wasn't he?"
The doctor admitted that such was the
fact and added that he was that boy. The
old schoolmate looked him over without
much appearance OF interest.
