This is romance of the turf, blooded
horses, bookmakers and betters,. with a
strong infusion of love and some rascal
ity. Square and honest racing is matter
of conscience with old John Porter, while
the tricks Of the turf are incidentally set
forth in an interesting way. John Por-
ters daughter Allis, the heroine, figures
as a jockey on a critical occasion when
Johns faVorite horse, who would only
show his gait when Allis was on his back,
was in the field against great odds and
success was necessary. The girl compels
admiration, for she saved her fathers
fortune and, at the last, won a husband
who had herocally borne an unjust impu-
tation Of theft to save a friend. The
story is full of life and vigor from first to
last. ... ..r 3

A remarkable article appears in this
issue under the caption, What Helped
Them The ideas there expressed are
those of eighth grade school children We
defy anybody to read those opinions and
feel very pessimistic, while the article is
fresh in his mind, about the value of the
mental training received in our public
schools. Those children have derived
something of value from their school life
and are able to tell clearly what it is.
1t isn't merely d lot Of goody-goody Sec
ond-hand sentiment either but each indi-
vidual has something personal and partic-
ular in his or her own experience that is
worth talking about. The great variety
of lasting impressions received in school
life shows also that individuality has not
been entirely crushed out by the school
machine. although the necessary condi-
tions under which public school work is;
done make such a result matter TO be
