SLOW AT THE FRYING PAN.

Up at Noatclair, N. j., the
Board of Education has banished
the frying pan from the public
schools and forbidden the domes-
tic science teaches to give any
instruction which requires that
time-honored and m~uch-malign-
ed cooking utensll.
The Board found an item of
$500 for frying pans in a bill for
the equipment of a new kitchen
in the high school, and a mem

son Immediately arose in meet.
and protested. He said the
frying pan meant dyspepsia. lie
said it meant bean %croquettes
and ham croquets and chicken
croquets and lots of other things
one isn't allowed to eat at Bat
tie Creek.
Supporters rallied to the anti
frying pan banner, and it lost
out completely. New Jersey al
WAYS has had queer ideas. But
Mr.. Harrison and the other mem
hers of that Board prepared their
own punishment. Just think OF
a town that can't have any fried
chicken. Nashville Tennessean.

Everything is being rapidly
pushed for the fair. Nothing
has been left undone. Every
man is working hard. 1t is ex-

by all means have it at the fair.

More Riders Next Week

A much larger field of riders is ex-
pected here by next Sunday. when the
Motorcycle club of this city will hold
its annual race meet, and other rec
ords may be looked for, especially as
next weeks card includes events up
to twenty-five miles.
The crowd was an entire surprise to
the management and is considered but
a harbinger of still greater ones, as
the thrilling nature of the racing be-
comes more generally known. Two
grandstands, capable of seating about
$500 people, had been rushed through
to completion and these were packed
to standing room capacity early in the
afternoon, while thousands were COM
PEELED to find standing room in the
immense oval or arena inside of the
track. Scores of automobiles with gay
parties likewise witnessed the races
from the arena.
Charles Fuller Gates, editor of Pacific
Motoring, acted as referee and made
a very good official, in the light OF the
tangled efforts of everyone to perform
his varied duties on first day. when
such an immense crowd has to be
handled.
w. E. Samuelson. holder of many
worlds motor paced bicycle records,
who arrived in the city Saturday night
from Salt Lake and who had not been
given any opportunity to train or prac-
tice on the new track, gave much
enjoyed exhibition of a motor-paced
mile, doing the distance in 1928, and
was well applauded.

N. S. U. Disappointment
The N. S. U. machines, of which so
much was expected, proved a bitter
disappointment to many who had an
ticipated rather large things of them.
Mitchell, the professional, who came
to the local track for the express pur-
pose of getting De Rosters scalp, was
unable to get any speed at all from
his machine In any event In which he
started, and in one of these races he
dropped out entirely after completing
two or three, circuits of the course.
This Is not attributable to MITCHELL
riding in any way, but rather to the
machine itself, one of the cylinders of
which failed to spark in one of the
races, while the belt Is said to have
stretched so badly as a result of the
lengthening of the frame the past week
to meet the demand for longer wheel
base, that no speed could be gotten out
OF the machine. This was true also,
though not In such marked degree, of
the N. S. U. machine ridden by Graves.
