KING EDWARD SENDS
HORSES TO AMERICA:
Consignment of Shire bred Animals
to Be Exhibited in United

NEW YORK, Aug. lin order that
the American people will appreciate
the merits of the Shire breed OF horses
and SO increase the demand for them,
king Edward and Lord Rothschild
have sent over consignment to be -ex-
hfbited both in this country and Cana.
da. They arrived on the Atlantic
Transport Line steamship Minneton.
ka, In charge of Edmund Peck.
The lot is made up Of YOUR stations,
three mares, two geitltngs, and foal,
and every animal has been selected
with the greatest care and majority
are prize-wlnners. They will be shipp-
ed at once to Toronto, where they will
be shown at the national show in Au
gust. So far it is planned to exhibit
them at the Central SHOW. at Ottawa,
the Northeastern Fairs, at London
and Ontario, and the American Royal
Exhibit, at Kansas City
There has not been much demand
for this breed of horses in this conn
try, and 1T is charged that the few
which have been sent here were not
the best Representatives of their kind.
This being the fact, those interested IL
the Shire say that The breed cannot
become known on this side of the ATT
1antic until the best in the class has
been shown here When this Is done,
they argue, the Americans will want
the Shire and be willing TO pay for tho
.hiph.class animals.
Lord Rothschild has sent his famous
mare, Guelder Rose, to represent the
brood mares. She is by'a son of the
famous Harold, out OF ndor Rose, a
daughter of Harold.

korea,s Mania e sehooIs.
a the Korea Daily News.

From the Korea Daily News.
of late the movement for starting
schools in this country has almost
amounted to a mania. We find them
springing up, on all sides. and there is
scarcely Korean of wealth or posi-
ton who has not become a. patron of
an educational establishment of some
kind or other.
1t is to be feared that some OF the
enthusiasm which is al present being
manifested will wear off in the course
of time and that some of the schools
will perish either from want Of pupils
or from want OF funds. The movement
is, however, undoubtedly a strong
one. as all enlightened Koreans fully
appreciate the fact that until at least
primary education becomes general
throughout their country they cannot
hope to emerge, once and for all, from
their present oppressed condition.

what Wa. Really Wanted.

From the Youths Companion.
one of the hundreds of thousands
of good persons who read the Com.
panion without subscribing for it
wrote recently for copy of the paper
containing an article on women in
New Zealand" No such article could
be found In the files, but little cor
respondence disclosed the fact that
the article which he really desired
was entitled "a Paradise for Dumb
Animals" We do not pretend to ex-
plain the connection in his mind be
tween the two titles.

EXPERIENCES ON THE ROAD,
Gleanings from the Scrap Book of an
Old-Time Actor.

The late William F. Owen, an old
school actor, who toured with Booth,
left behind him an interesting scrap
book of press notices. Though famous
in later life. Mr.. Owen in his youth
often toured with companies that were
none too successful. He was fond
of showing two notices from q north
western paper regarding one of these
companies. The first was an ad-
vance notice, prompted by a heavy ad-
, vertising order. The second was a
review of the performance, inspired
by the fact that the advertising bill
had not been paid.
"Next Monday evening"" ran the ad-
vance notice, 'our people will be ia
vored with a treat such as we seldom
enjoy in our little city. The world
famous Garrick Dramatic company,
presenting the sparkling comedy,
'Wooed and Won,' will appear at Dub's
hall with company of artists whom
it is pleasure and duty to COM
mend to the favorable notice of all
lovers of pure and refined comedy"
After the company's departure with
out paying up the editor wrote: Last
Monday night a tenth-rate gang of
transformers held forth to slim and
suffering audience in Dub's~ hall.
They performed, or rather murdered,
a piece called 'Wooed and Won,' a
dreary collection of gags, Jokes and
conundrums older than the ark.
i IF there is member of this COM
bination with enough dramatic abil-
ity to turn grindstone without the
aid Of a prompter. he didn't appear
on Monday night. The only wonder
is that when so palpable fraud as
this cheap aggregation Of actors comes
to town anybody can be found who
cares to waste quarter to help the
pestilent mummers on to the next
town."

THE pEsTlNY or WOMEN.
.&tSg 4&E' 10 1928 N.&Ett
She Should Be satisfied With Being
Woman.

+ The first requirement in the ideal
of a woman Is that she shall be a
satisfied woman, and that she does
not at all wish to be anything but q
woman. The creed of pessimism and
despair is: 1T were better not to be!'
yet would give no more for Il would
greatly have preferred to be some.
thing else!"
Woman should not be satisfied to
accept herself at this valuation,
though that, doubtless, is better than
to- revolt against her fate; but she
should appraise herself, feel the high
dignity of her position, recognize the
advantages of life under the special
form in which she receives it, and
which in nobility, is equal to- that
bestowed upon man. In a. word,
woman should have the courage and
Ade of her sex.
We often meet young ladies who
would like to be boys. In speaking
among themselves Of certain others
of their set they say: There is a
girl who ought to have been a boy;
she is boy lost!" There is no harm
in this, inasmuch as it is no more
than a joke and fashion of speaking.
1t amounts to saying that certain
young girls have aptitudes which Or
dinarily are characteristic of young
boys. But these have never prevented
a woman from being truly and grace
fully womanly
What we wish to indicate and stig-
Matte here Is silly scorn of that
which we already possess; a refusal
to put it into operation, to employ it.,
and the dangerous illusion which lies
in thinking that we should have done
greater work in this world if God had
wished to make us something other
than that which he has desired.-Pas-
tor Wagner, in Harper's Bazaar.

A Punxsutawney man had a row
with his wife a couple of weeks age
with the result that the woman depart

the man was awakened by some thing

which he had left burning, was ex

He lighted the lamp, but 1t was quick
ly blown out. Then violent hands
were laid upon him and he was

Former Senator John M. Thurston,

the defense in recent trial in one
of the state courts, arose the other
day to reply to argument of counsel
for the government on point Of law.
In deliberate and impressive manner
the attorney began forceful presen-
