In every newspaper we pick up We are
sure to find gush about the man be-
hind the counter and the man behind
the gun, the man behind the buzz-saw
and the man behind the son; the man
behind the times and the man behind
his rents; the man behind the plowshare
and the man behind the fence; the man
behind the whistle and the man behind
the cars; the man behind the kodak and
the man behind the bars; the man be-
hind the whiskers, the man behind his
fists and everything behind has entered
on the list. But they have skipped an
other fellow Of whom nothing has been
said-the fellow who is even or little
way ahead; who pays for what he gets
and whose bills are always signed-he's
a darn-sight more important than the
man who is behind. All we editors and
merchants and the whole commercial
clan are indebted for existence to this
honest fellow-man. He keeps US all in
business and his town is never dead,
and 30 we take our hats off TO the man
who is ahead.

HERR|CK BROWN
Wins THE RACE
(From Sundays Advertiser.)

Stepping easily and lightly. running
ON his toes and without the least sign
of distress, Herrick Brown came can
terlng down Beretania avenue shortly
after o'clock yesterday afternoon.
winning the Y. NJ c. A. Junior five
mile run in the remarkable time of
So min. 80 sec.
The second man to come in was
Karl Klemme, some fifty seconds later,
and Harold Mott. after a superb race
in which he was ousted by side
cramps, came in good third. The
others of the eight contestants troop
ed in one after the other all within
forty minutes, and each one showed
signs of really excellent condition.
The race was postponed from 8
O'Clock till half an hour later in order
to give all the runners time to change
and get a good preliminary rub. Then
they walked up to the corner of Ala
kea street and Beretania avenue and
lined up facing towards King street
At the signal they all started off at
an easy pace. with Alvin silva and
Manuel Boteilho in front. As they
turned round onto King street they
strung out more, and the leaders,
among whom We're Mott, Silva and Bo-
teilho. made the pace.
Brown was making good pace until
he reached Thomas Square, when he
was suddenly taken with severe
cramp and was obliged to slacken To
walking pace. But he stayed by the
game and wore down the pain In his
stomach until he was able to run
again.
BY this time he was way behind the
leaders, being seventh. But he had
ed to crawl up on them until he was
back with the leaders before the
league grounds were reached.
The pace was good all the way along
King street until the league grounds
were reached. Then all the runners
slackened trlhe and those behind
began to bunch more with the lead
ers. Mott took the lead shortly after
Beretania was reached and held this
position for some time. when Brown
came up and took the place away
from him. Mott struggled gamely to
hold his position. but a sharp pain in
his side warned him of the coming
cramps, and he was obliged to slow
down.
Before the power station was reach
ed Brown was well to the front with
Karl Klemme in second place and
making hot try to catch up the slim
youth in front of him, The finish OF
the race was done In good time, and
several who were following on bicy-
Giles state that Brown made the last
mile in better than six minutes.
The race was a good success all the
way through. Every runner finished,
and finished in good condition. and the
time was Just what Dr. Hand expect
ed and wanted. For youngster
under eighteen years OF age, 1t is
mighty good work to run FIVE miles
at the rate of a mile every seven min.
utes and Brown is to be heartily con-
graduated on plucky, heady and
game race
Those who ran were Karl Klemme,
