The special 2:17 trot was a cinch for
Hokolo in three straight heats, with
Lou Burton second, Borena third and
Ben Inglekind fourth. Starter Reeve
warned the drivers, after the sleepy
time of 2:29 in the first heat, that they
must drive a race and give the public
a showing for their money. Taylor
was put up behind Borena, supplant-
ing Martin, but 1T made no difference
n the horses were driven out better
in the two final heats OF somewhat
tame race.

Old Friends.

There are no friends like old friends,
And none 40 good and true;
We greet them when we greet them,
AS roses greet the dew;
No other friends are dearer
Though born Of kindred mold;
And while We prize the new ones,
We treasure more the old
There are no friends like old friends,
Where er we dwell or roam,
In lands beyond the ocean,
or near the bounds oil home;
And when they smile to gladden.,
Or sometimes frown to guide,
We fondly wish those old friends
Were always By our side.
There are no friends like old friends,
To help us with the load
That all must bear who journey
Ger life's uneven road;
Aud when nneonquered SORROWS
The Weary hours invest,
The kindly words OF old friends
Are always found tie best.
There are no friends like old friends,
To calm our frequent fears,
When shadows fall and deepen
Through life's declining years;
And when our faltering footsteps
Approach the Great Divide,
We'll long to meet the old friends
Who wait the other side,
David b Sickles
