BURKE LOOMS UP
AS FUTURE STAR
Speedy Newark Boy Is Making
Mark in Athletic
Circles.
COLLEGE SPORT ACTIVITIES

Frank Burke, the x-Barringerite,
has bright future predicted for him
IN track athletics. While he is not a
John Paul Jones, the Newark boy is
rated as one of Cornelrs best distance
runners. Burke finished third on the
winning Cornell team and in thir-
teenth position in the intercollegiate
cross-eountry race over the Van Cort-
land Park course, in New York city
Considering the fact that Madeira, the
Olympic athlete, and others were un-
able to stand the gruelling pace,
bnrek's performance was exception
ally noteworthy. In his freshman
year at an interclass meet Burke
negotiated the mile distance in the
1ast time of minutes and 27 seconds.
l Ihe Roseville. flyer also finished second
In the interclass eross-eountry run,
defeating Cadiz and other distance
men of note.
Burke has been invited to compete
IN the mile event at the Central High
School games from the same mark as
Joe Myer, the Dartmouth freshman
star. Provided Burke is able to ac-
eept, the Barringer cohorts will turn
out in force to witness the running of
their favorite.
Traffic was almost stopped at the
corner of Market and Broad streets

Proposed Revision of Polo
Rules Hits Noted Players

NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-A rule to
bar left-handed polo players in all
open events will be made at the an
nual meeting of the Polo Association
in February. Such a rule, If passed,
will affect twenty-one of the most
prominent players, including Bradley
Martin, jr., Craig Wadsworth and j.
Watson Webb. A similar rule has
governed polo in England since 1907.
Objection to left-handed mallet
twirlers appears to be that they have
an ADVANCE over right-handed OPP
ponents, and not that they are dan
gerous to other players in game.

LIFE is ENDURABLE
ONLY THROUGH HOPE
Romance a Thing Of Fine
Dignity

In an article in the February Wo-

author describes The Arabian

nth world appears the following
passage:
at is a thing of some dignity, this
gift, this power of imaging and mag
ming. 1t is, indeed, the root of all ro-
nance. 1t is that thing whereby when
reality presses too hard upon him, man
makes life livable yet while. He
magines things other than they are,
pictures them in happier fashion,
makes good out of evil and builds
happiness on the~ ruins of unhappi-
ness.
But the thing goes deeper yet, evea,
for when We trace imagination and ro-
nance deeper than our first impress
sions of them, we find them rooted in
what else but mans hope Things dire
in themselves he has turned to lovely
uses. Placed in world where all
things threatened him, where fire
burned and frost bit him, and where
great natural forces overpowered him,
like the genie of the Arabian Nights
tales, what could one suppose the out
come would be, save ignominious de-
feat? Yet the end is not defeat, but
victory For always within him, how
ever temporary powers might seem to
defeat him, always there was mans
faculty of hope, and undying imagina-
tive, unconquerable thing Always
there was his power of imagining the
world not as it was, all about him, but
as it might be, he wished it might be,
and little by little, through the ages.
hoped 1t might be. So imagining bet
ter things, hoping better things, he
went back to his task again and again;
strengthened for new endeavor. So,
little by little, and by thousand and
one ingenuities and inventions pictured
first in the minds eye, man fulfilled
his daring hopes and attained his mas,
terful destiny"

GOOD ROADS HAVE
ATTRACTED ATTENTION
To Americas and Sumter
County

Sumter county's fine roads have at
tracted more attention in this direc-
ton, perhaps, than any other agency
and have added enormously to land val
ues here. Not only are these roads the
pride of every resident of the county,
but they attract attention throughout
the state, we'll merited compliment,
indeed. And Sumter will build moro
of them, in addition to the 200 miles
already in use.
In a recent issue of the Savannah
News some interesting figures regard
ing the cost of road building in Georgia
were given, as follows;
In Georgia, 1920 miles of public
roads are reported for 1909, against
57,203 in 1904, when the reports were
clearly not complete. Of the total
reported for 1909, SSO.5 were surface
ued with gravel, 4.S26.5 with sand CLAY,
522 with stone, 244 with shell and )
with bituminous-maca making a
total of 5,97S miles of improved roads,
a gain in all classes of 4,344 miles for
the five-year period.
In 1904 2.S6 per cent. of the roads
in Georgia were improved and in 1909
= 81 per cent, showing that AL per
cent. of the roads were improved N
the 5 years, an increase of 154 per
cent.
Fifty-four counties in Georgia report
no improved roads; 50 report less than
10 per cent. improved; report 20 to -
per cent and IL thirty per cent. and
over improved Of these Glynn has

They are much higher in Connecticut.

for $3.50 per mile, and highest in
New York, where the cost is $9,495

Sand-clay roads in Georgia are

Steady Increase in Coal Production.

for the first time a total exceeding
100, 900 tons, and six years later, in
1882, it had reached the million-ton
mark. Since that date the increase
has been almost uninterrupted. The

viii Restore Republican Rule.

Twenty-one years ago the wage
earners voted in anger rather than IN
reason. They held the Republican
party responsible for the Homestead
strike-for which 1t was in nowise re-
ponsible-and voted to bring in the
Democratic party committed to re-
vision of the tariff on anti-protection
lines. The result was four years OF
business depression, with lower wages
where wages were paid at all, and no
wages whatever at many points where
work had been plentiful and wages
high. The wage earners. as they soon
discovered. had inflicted heavy loss
on themselves. Two years later they
voted to bring in Republican house,
and two years after that to restore the
Republican party to complete control
OF the government. History will
shortly repeat itself

PARTY MUST UNITE
Choice Is Between Union end
Democratic Dominance.
country's Interests Demand That Re-
pubIicans and Proeressives Forget
Their Differences and Unite
Against Party in Power.

Gradually the fundamental facts OF
he political situation brush away the
cob~e ebs of factional feeling and mar
row personal influences of all kinds
which stand in the way of the union
of Republicans and Progressives who
are alike in distrusting and condemn
ing the methods and policies. OF the
party now in power at Washington
Every day the tarifr is discussed con-
vinces more Progressives and more
Republicans that the only choice 1s
between union and Democracy. Every
great, vital measure like the currency
bill which is brought forward by the
Democrats who are running things in
congress. brings mora Progressives
and Republicans to realizing sense
of the folly of division In the face OF
the common enemy.
The logic of events is plain. 1t Is
impossible to escape the conclusion
that those who will not accept any
reasonable or possible plan OF bring
Ing the Republicans and the Progress
sives together are virtually consent
ing to the indefinite domination Of the
national government by the Demo
cratic organization and the admins
tration OF the peoples business by the
party which stands for minority or
the voters and for program many
times repudiated at the polls and new
er approved In national election,
since 1892.
When this choice becomes entirely
clear to the people of the United
States there will be an end Of the
present separation OF the anti-Demo-
cratic. anti-free trade majority into
two armies, each too weak TO beat the
Democrats alone, while both together
could easily oust the minority party
and restore majority rule in the ma
