Fashions Easy Marks.

Some of the wealthy Americans who
at a heavy outlay of good American
dollars are leading fashionable lives
abroad present a ludicrous aspect,
looked at from the point Of view of
their practical brethren who remain
at home. There is strong ground for
the belief that many of them devote
themselves daily to what they regard
merely because, as their British ac-
quaintances would say, TITS the thing,
don't " know ?-the propah capah.'
One of these fashionable but tire
some activities is grouse shooting.
Englishmen, bred to it from boyhood
UP, delight in it. but Americans as a
rule would rarely think of it were it
not part of the established routine of
society. As it is, they rent moors,
like other rich men, and report is cur
rent that they pay prices which Eng
lis1rTne11 would consider extortionate;
but when fully equipped for grouse
shooting, and ready at all times to
converse concerning it, they do not
consider it engrossing. An English
observer writes:
While one still finds Englishmen
spending their time on the moors,
with occasional brief intervals to at
tend race meetings, Americans who
have rented shoots in Scotland or
Yorkshire for the early grouse season
seem frequently to vacate the cold
north at q comparatively early date
and 20 hurry off to either Paris or
back to America for the Newport sea-

RECOUNT IN FAIRFIELD.
Attorney Kings Petition Is Granted
by Judge Williams.

On the application Of Joseph #.
Brothwell, one Of the defeated candi-a
dates for selectman at the last cleo
ton at Fairfield, Judge w II. Will
Jams of the superior court signed an
order that there be a recount of the
vote of last Monday, and fixed Tues
day. October is, as the date. The
petition was presented by Attorney
CIitus Fl. King of Fairfield. There
does not appear to be any opposition
to the application to the recount, as
it is apparent a mistake has been
made. The returns as printed gave
the vote as follows: Charles S. Fox
359 votes. John G. LobdeIl $50, Charles
A. Rowe 1926, J. F. BrothWell 3l6.
There We're 760 ballots cast at the
election and for one reason or an
other 81 ballots were thrown out,
mostly because no mark had been
made in the circle indicating the party
preference. Mr.. Fox and Mr.. Broth
well Were the democratic candidates,
and Messrs. Rowe and Lobdell were
the republican nominees. The two re-
publican candidates received 676 votes
and the two democrats a tidal of SIS.
If there We're $50 ballots cast and 81
were thrown out there should be 1928
ballots to be accounted for. What

has become of the difference between

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
There Are Others.

Mr. Editor: Through Rev. DIR. Frank
White of your city have just re-
ceived a copy of your paper dated Aug.
31st wherein he very truthfuily and
fairly discusses the condition Of the
southern negro. l note also in that
same issue an editorial on The En-
doWment of TusSegee." After saying
many good things about Booker Il.
Washington and his deserving institu-
ton and the material advancement of
the negroes in the south,>you close the
editorial by saying: They have other
schools equally deserving of assist
ance, and it is to be hoped that~they
Will share part of the millions which
are sure to be distributed by the phi
lanthropic for educational purposes
from year to year.
I am frank to tell you that yours is
the first northern paper that I have
seen willing to inform the philanthro-
pic of the north that there are 9th
ers." There are others throughout the
south, and many of them originated
and carried on by the negroes them
selves are exceedingly well deserving.
The institution over which l have had
the pleasure of presiding in this place
for twenty three years is one of that
kind. The negroes of the state orig
mated it, having endowed it from time
to time, and are still contributing to
its needs according to their prosperity.
But # is impossible for a people just
up from slavery to feel and discharge
their whole duty toward their educa-
tional institutions like our good white
friends north and south. What this
and other schools like it need is an
occasional supplementary gift from our
good white friends, north and south. so
as to encourage the negroes in their
desperate effort at self-help and self
administered education. Since our
northern friends have plabted so many
schools in the south and supplied them
with their own best blood for teaching
so many years, the negroes in many
states have concluded that they would
be gratifying and even Tepaying their
friends by starting and supporting
some schools Of their own to the best
of their ability. Tt is very much like
q child undertaking TO walk alone after
being attended by kind nurse 50
many months. The child is right TO do
it's best, but the nurse ought to help
it all the more for it's brave and de-
serving effort.
1t is quite true that most schools
which the negroes have originated for
themselves are church schools And
some of them are blatant with names
indicative cf the church to which they
belong. The negroes are apprehensive
that the names and church relation of
their schools are giving them backsets
with their northern friends, however so
worthy these schools may otherwise be
But the negroes are following the
wake of their white educational pio-
nears in this regard and should be al

gauntlet and spend their partisan force
