THE RACE MEET

Great credit rs due the officers
and manager OF the Spanish Fork
Race Track Association for the BIG
meet now being held there. Not
only the fastest horses in Utah. but
some of the best in the west have
been brought tagether In both
harness and saddle events on the
opening day time, equal any ever
made in the State of Utah, was re-
corded. The results of todays
races were as follows.
First -2.2O trot or pace best
two in three heats, won by Don in
two straight heats; time 2.10-
$4,000 purse.
Second race, mile dash, won by
Tormento; tins $4,000.
Third race, ] mile. saddle horses.
won 10y .reddie; time not given.
Fourth race, z mile dash, won by
Los Angeleno; time 1921 $4,000.
Each of the above races was
closely contested and immensely
interesting
In addition tn the races the
worlds champion broneho rider
gave fine exhibition; and a most
successful balloon ascension was
accomplished,
There was only one lamentable
fact in connection with the meet.
That was the poor attendance, and
the fact that goodly number of
citizens took advantage of the
track not being fenced, and occu-
pied every available space without
paying admission.
The price of admission, soc for
adults, and 25c for children, with
no charge for grand stand When
we consider that the local track Is
giving one of the best race meets
that the state has ever seen, the
people should patronize the races
and help build up the town.
The first purse tomorrow will be

WHAT THE.KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us Strong
And Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes, The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 800 grains
of impure matter daily, when I'M
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings on
many diseases and symptoms-pain in
the back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatism, gout. gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and hearing,
dizziness, irregular heart, debility,
drowsiness, dIopsy, deposits IN the
urine, etc. But if you keep the filters
right you will have no trouble with
your kidneys.
Augustus Hawn, 327 Second ST. =,
Huntingdon, Pa, says 1t was about
three years ago that my kidneys first
began to give me trouble. The disease
grew on me gradually and constantly
became worse until it reached a stage
OF severity that when l got up IN the
morning sharp stingIng pains would
catch me in the back and the action of
the kidneys became very regular and
there was hot burning sensation dur
ing passage of the secretions tried
all kinds of medicine but nothing
seemed to do me any good At last
decided to try Doan's Kidney Pills
and found such prompt and unexpect
ed relief that / feel warranted i'll re-

sufferers.

Congestion at Sunbury.

The railroad situation in Sunbury
now holds the centre of the stage for
the head officials of the great Pennsyl-
vania system. 1t is now believed that
in that town lies the main cause of
the congestion which has been block
ing the traffic on all the lines, especi-
ally on the local division, and that in
Sunbury alone can be found the rem
edy. Adequate yard facilities at that
point are believed to he a key to the
situation.
A notable party Of railroad men were
in Sunbury throughout Saturday max
ing a critical examination of the
traffic. There were Mr.. r. NJ. Patter-
son, general superintendent of freight
transportation, and other officials from
Philadelphia; General Superintendent
W. Fl. Myers, Superintendent II. p
Lincoln, and Assistant Trainmaster
Charles Hartman, of WilliamspoIt.
In the party of inspection were in
cluded the Sunbury officials.
On the conclusions drawn from their
critical inspection of the situation in
Sunbury will depend all future action
taken by the company in reference to
that town. To relieve the freight con-
gestion is necessity immediate aud
imperative. The means which will be
tlken to accomplish this end are of
far reaching Importance to Sunbury

Over Embankment.

A thrilling runaway occurred Satur-
day evening near Bloomsbury i'll which
four we'll known men of Mt. Pleasant
township. Columbia county, were
thrown out of a wagon and over all
embankment, and all more or less SER
iously injured.
Frank Mordan was driving team
of spirited colts on his way from
Bloomsbury to his home in Mt. Pleas
ant township. On the front seat with
him was Charles L. Sands, we'll known
politically, while seated on turkey
box in the rear of the wagon were
William Mordan and William Lorah.
one of the men in the wagon made a
sharp noise, causing the horses to start
forward Ore of the reins dropped
from the hands of the driver. Just at
that insant tie wagon struck a water
course, and the driver, Frank Mordan,
was thrown over the dash board be-
tween the horses. Still holding Oh to
one rein, Mor,Ian drew the horses too
far to one side Of the road and the
whole outfit, wagon. horses and men,
went over steep embankment into a
field.
In the mix up that followed the oc.
cupants of the wagon were pretty badly
used up One of the horses was caught,
while the other got away ami was not
captured until early yesterday morn
ing.
The injured men were taken to the
Welliver farm nearby AMI when ply
sician arrived he found that place
looking like an eme gency hospital.
Frank Mordan had suffered dislocat-
ed shoulder and ribs broken; Will
liam MOrdan dislocated his right
shoulder and had a number of severe
lacerations; Sands sustained a number
of cuts about the head and a badly
bruised body: Lorah, who received
cuts and bruises all over his body,

FOR BENEFIT Of
Stevens MEMORIAL

There will be only one evening en-
tertainment during institute week and
this will be one which should interest
all friends of the common schools. as
aside from the interest of the enter
tainment itself it is designed to hon
or the memory of Thaddeus Stevens,
the great advocate and supporter of
the public shcools in those days when
the system needed champion such as
Mr.. Stevens. As explained in a pre-
yious issue the Stevens memorial will
take the form of an industrial school
for INDECENT orphans. The proposition
is to erect a 5000, 020 building with an
endowment fund of $500, 900 The
money left by Thaddeus Stevens for
such school today amounts to about
$50, 600. The Legislature has appropri-
ated $50, 600 toward the project. Sixty
three counties of the State have in
dicated a desire to participate in the
movement and now little Moutour
goes on record as one giving practical
assurance of more or less substantial
aid. Governor Pennypacker is a warm
friend of the movement and the prop
osition to hold the entertainment
here fer the benefit of the fund is in
line with the recommendation of State
Superintendent n G Shaeffer, as set
forth in the recent article
The entertainment for the benefit of
the Stevens memorial fund, to take
place here on Thursday evening, Dec
ember 9Th, will be in the form of a
eading or recital and will be given
by Miss Landis, of Millersville, a tai
ented and cultured young lady, especi-
ally accomplished in her line. She is
the daughter of Hon. John H. Landis,
former member of the legislature and
a. present superintendent Of the Unit
ed States mint at Philadelphia Miss

PROPHETS DISAGREE.

There is a lively contest Oh between
the weather prophets, who have been
predicting hard winter from the
fact that the muSkrats' coat is thick
and the squirrels and chipmunks lay
ing in a good supply of winter food.
Others contend that since rain fell on
st. Martins day the winter is bound
to be soft. 1t seems toss up between
st. Martins Day and the 1duskrats

some new LAWS
WE MAY EXPECT

The next Pennsylvania legislature
will 90 into session with comfort
able Republican majority i'll both
branches so the people Of the State
will naturally look for the enactment
of such laws as were promised to them
before election.
There is no diversity of opinion
among the Republican State leaders,
as TO the introduction and passage of
a measure giving trolley companies
the right of eminent domain so far as
may be necessary for their successful
building and operation, and the right
to carry freight, as the Republican
platform sets forth: I'm order that the
products of the fields and farms may
reach the market at the least possible
cost and inconvenience. This legis-
lation is demanded by farmers all
over the State, and it is predicted that
the railroad companies will not be
able to sidetrack it as they did in pre-
vious years.
An effort will be made to pass con
stitutional bill to prohibit railroads
and transportation companies being en-
gagged in mining coal. This is for
hidden in the seventeenth article OF
the constitution, but the companies
engaged in this business never accept
ed the constitution of 1874 and it is
doubtful whether they can be reached
by the proposed legislation.
The Republican party is pledged to
pass an employers liability law. Cor
porations and large employers have
heretofore been able to prevent the en-
actment of law which would make
them liable for damages to employees
injured during the time Of their en-
ployment If drastic bill of this
character were passed it is held by
labor leaders that there would be few
or accidents in factories and large est
Adjustments because employers would
take greater care to protect their en-
ployes.
A law which will extend the provis-
ions Of the Shern act to county officers
and their employees is included in the
reform legislation proposed. This law
will apply to county officers all over
the State.
A bill to prohibit mercantile ap-
praisers holding any other Federal,
State. county or city Office, was recon-
mended by the Republican State plat
form.
A law which will meet with the ap-
proval, RS it will mean more money
for local purposes, will be one to re-
turn to the counties all the personal
property tax and license fees collected
therein. This legislation is recon-
mended by the Republican State con-
vention.
Other laws proposed by the Republi
can State platform embrace increased
appropriations to public schools, hos
pitals and charitable institutions, and
for hospitals the separate care Of the
criminal insane, the erection of dis
pensaries, hospitals and sanitariums
for the treatment of consumption and
liberal appropriations for the construc-
tion of public highways throughout
the State.

LIBERTY TOWNSHIP
WANTS HIGH school

The enterprising people of Liberty
township, this county, are making a
move for the establishment Of town
ship high school. With the idea of in
stituting a thorough discussion on the
subject, Il meeting has been called for
Saturday evening, December list. at
which time both the board of directors
and the tax payers of Liberty Will at
tend.
The establishment of township high
schools is looked upon with favor by
the State department of public in
struction, which encourages the town
ships to maintain these higher institu.
tions of learning by paying extra
money to the school districts wherein
they become located. To township
maintaining a high school with a two
| year course the State agrees to paw
800 extra appropriation for three
year course, $500 and for four year
| course, $500. On account of the in
sufficient public school appropriation.
however, the State has been compelled
to cut these extra appropriations in
half, giving to the townships main
| tanning high schools only 30 per cent
of the above amounts
Liberty township this year has 10
| pupils for whom tuition fees are being
| paid outside of the Districts who
attend at Pottsgrove aud who attend
the public schools of this city. Fol-
these pupils Liberty township pays
out about 81. 90 apiece per month, OF
nearly $500 year. 1t is claimed that
the high school could be maintained
with the money saved from outside
tuition together with the appropria-
tiOn from the State.
The proposition to which Liberty
township will give consideration next
! Saturday evening is one that is of in
terest to the residents in all of the
rural districts in the county. II tie
taxpayers of progressive Liberty de-
eide that they will make the move and
have Their own high school their ex,
pertinent will be closely watched by
all who are interested in the cause of
educati on.

ship is composed of Luther Cromley,

MENACE TO THE FARMERS.

1.-The burning of barns in tins part
of the country, said farmer, is one
of the constant menaces we are expos
ed 20, and it is now a very serious
matter, and causes considerable anx-
iety to me and others | know. What
should we do when a tramp comes
along and asks to sleep in the hay
NOW? Charity would say Yes, but it
is dangerous, either to let him do 80
or to refuse him. The loss Of farm
er's barn at this time means much
financially. The insurance never GOV
ers the loss when the crops are all
harvested, and at this time, no one
could rebuild his barn at anywhere
near the figures it was originally built
for. Farmers have more to fear in the
way of fire than property owners in
towns and cities, as the latter are pro
tected more than we are.
