WALKED BACKWARD 80
MLES-QUEER RACES

One OF the most dificult walking
feats on record was accomplished in
1926. when a well known pedestrian
named Lloyd undertook for bet to
walk so miles backward in nine
hours. THIS he succeeded in doing
with IA minutes 20 spare. on the
road between Bagshot and Ports
mouth.
A still more eccentric wager was
made by Horace Walpole's brother
Lord Oxford, who backed drove of
geese to race an equal number o.
turkeys from Norwich to London
He won the bet, for the geese KEEP
to the road all the time. The tur-
keys, wren darkness came on, flew
to roost in the trees, from which
their drivers had hard task to dis
lodge them. The turkeys were tive

THE EFFECTIVE PLANS
Of Y. N. c. A. WORK
An Interesting Incident of How
Father Found His Son
In Good Hands.

Mr.. J. II. Power, a prominent at
torney of Flemingsburg, was sur
prised when letter from the Sec
rotary of the Y. NJ. G. A. at Nash
Vile came TO him few days ago,
requesting that he loo6 after his
son, II. c. Power. The story runs
thus: II. C. Power had been room
ing in the Nashville Y. NJ. c. A.
building, and when he told the sec
rotary that he was going to Flem-
inPsburg, he didn't mention the fact
that it was Is home. The secre-
tary, following the Y. M. c. A. Gus
tom, sat down and wrote letter
10 the pastor of the Baptist Church
in Flemingsburg, asking that he
meet Mr.. Power and introduce him
to the best Christian influences
while there. There being no resi-
dent pastor of this church there,
the letter was delivered to the ell
der Power, who is a deason in the
Baptist Church. He was surprised
end Mr.. Power writes this letter to
that IL was about his own boy. He
thought IL great system that
could follow his 10y away from
home and then follow him back. His
son is leaving for Phoenix, Ariz.,
and Mr.. Powers writes this letter to
the Y. NJ. c. A. secretary:
81 want to thank you for the at
tention you are giving my boy and
the effort you are making to have
the pastor of our church take some
cognizance of him. want to ask
you to kindly write to the pastor of
the First Baptist Church at Phoe-
nix, Ariz., and call his attention to
the fact that my boy has recently
moved into that -town, and ASK hm
10 become acquainted with him and
take some supervision of him.
For a number of years past it
has been my pleasure and my priv
ilege to contribute to the Y. M. c.
A. fund of Kentucky in an humble
way. have been doing this for
the benefit of other peoples boys.
At that time I never thought of my
boy being so far from home, and
never thought of the fact that this
splendid Association would be in a
position to look after his interests.
This matter has come home closely
to me. and | want to say to you
that fully appreciate what you are
doing, not only for my own son,
but for thousands of other boys
who have been compelled to leave
tho environments of home and home
influence.
Thanking you again for the eff
fort YOU are making to look after
the interests of my boy and all 9TH
