sensational collision from a strange
cause at the clubhouse turn in the
track Just as the horses finished in
the first race at Latonia this after
noon. At almost the same time a
panic seized the grand stand occupants
and a stampede ensued. Constable
Mike Flannelly was trying to catch a
young man who was secretly making
ahandbook under the grand stand. The
officer fired a shot and general con-
fusion ensued.
Jockey Coleman. on Procla, especi-
ally. was panic-strtcken. He allowed
his mount to run into Miss Hapsburg.
and then he tumbled out of the sad
die under all the flying hoofs. Strange
ly enough he escaped with a slight
bruise on the left knee.

Don't gamble, young man.


Don't gamble, young man.
Because
Every game should be played for the
sake of the game. Real sport should
not be lowered to the plane of betting.
Clean sport demands that the game
should be played for the love of the
game itself and not for the money
there is in it. Do not spoil good sport
by bad practice.
Because
1t is a cheap and mean way to make
| a nasty dollar. Each time you win
the other fellow loses. You get his
money for nothing. How do you know
he can afford to lose? The loss may
make him commit crime Where
does that leave you? Be a man. Pay
your way. Earn your own. Don't try
to beat your way.
| Because
Gambling will lead you away from
good company into bad Gamblers do
not belong to good society. They and
their kind herd together If you herd
with them you must get down to their
level. You can't keep clean and live in
the mud.
Because
1t will unfit you for business. The
fellow who sits up half the night to
play poker is in poor shape to solve
business problems the next day. He
who keeps his eye on the race track
or the board of trade quotations must
take his eye off his business. And he
who neglects business is unreliable
He cannot serve two masters.
Because
The fever of gambling will soon get
into your blood and vitiate your life
Instead of giving every man a square
deal you will come to look for the ad-
vantage you may take of every man
And shortly you will come to the place
where the fine flush to honest endeavoI

that will restrain you-so we put i
