Kramer for him, made an awful
bad guess. There he sat, on Goullet,
absolutely last, waiting for something
to happen, while Clark, up near the
front, was in just the right position
for what did happen. OF course
Kramer couldn't see the joke of the
whole affair, with him in the ruck
in such a race. He was waiting for
a free ride" from Goullet, but the
moment Goullet stuck his nose out
to race to the front, Grenda, who
was supposed to be friendly with him.
raced him high and wide and al
most into submission with a lap and
half to go. That, on the face. of
1t, didn't look much like teaming.
Anyway, Kramer is a pretty sore
boy. 1t was the first time in his
recollection that he had failed to win
prize in an open race in which
he was in at the finish. He didn't
like it a bit and he may decide to
organize a "wrecking crew. of his
own.

Arthur Ross, the referee, made a
decision or two that must have

he has suspended Mike Ferrari in

with Floyd Krebs. There is some doubt
as to the justice Of the Hehir dis
qualification, as the claim. is made
that Thomas was the real offender
1t is said that Hehir had plenty of
room to come through on the pole,
as Thomas swung wide to give liver
Lawson a switch. According to the
riders say-so, Lawson would have
won the race If 1t was truly run, and
Hehir would have been no worse than
third. Hehir, however who is riding
under protest, made his little kick,
and that was all. Ferrari, however,
looks to be a hopeless case His Of
Tense was too vicious to overlook,

it looks as if his next move calls for

The Battle of AlamanCe
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY.

4 T THE battle Of AlamanCe,
n N. c., fought 142 years ago
May 10, 1771-was shed
the first blood of the great strug-
gle which was to result in the
establishment Of American indie
pendence.
All honor to Lexington, where
the "embattled farmers" fired
shots that were heard around
the world" but let it not be for
gotten that other farmers, al
most four years before the day Of
Lexington, opened the fight Of
which Lexington was only the
continuation.
The principles for which the
North Carolina farmers fought at
Alamance were identified with
those for which Massachusetts
farmers fought at Lexington. OF
the Massachusetts patriots nine
teen were killed and wounded.
while of the Carolina patriots
over 200 lay killed or crippled
upon the field and six. later on,
died upon the scaffold, yet, while
all the world has heard Of Lex
ington, not one person in a thou
sand knows anything TO speak Of
about Alamance.
William Tryon. the royal Gov
ernor OF North Carolina, was so
mean that they called him the
Wolf" In the name Of his royal
master and for the furtherance
Of his own greedy instincts Try

things-resist him or become
slaves. They resolved 60 resist
and formed themselves into an
organization known as "Regula-
tors" a body of as pure patriots
as ever shouldered a gun.
Having protested time and
again against the unlawful taxa
ton under which they groaned.
they finally quit grooming, raised
the cry Of freedom and rose in
arms against Tryon and King
George.
To the number Of 1000 or 5000
the Regulators, only partly arm
ed and without organization, met
the forces of the royal Cover

mander. Fire and be damned"
shouted back the leader Of the
Regulators. At once the battle
opened, and, OF course, the Regu-
Iators were defeated and dis
persed. But old Tryon received
the lesson he had so long needed
that. while Americans could be

A Story Worth Study.

Is there any story better worth
studying than that Of this gradual
development Of man out of the
brute? Is there any better way
to stimulate the resolve, which
everyone must feel deep in his
nature, to do something to has
ten the time when war and blood
shed shall cease. than by looking
upon this vivid picture of the
origin Of those things? It tells
US, as no words could do. how
dreadfully slow our progress has
been.
The same ungoverned passion
that inspires those two brutes in
the picture masters men on the
battlefield to-day. The clenched
jaws the glazing eyes. the kissing
breath, the vicious strokes to kill
all come back again as repul-
sive as they were in the old Stone
Age.
But the hope Of humanity lies
in the fact that the moral in
stinct has gained upon the purely
selfish one. The men of the pre-
historic caverns had no sympa-
thy for their kind beyond the cir
Gle of their own fires. When 9TH
er meat was scarce, they killed
and ate their neighbors, or their
neighbOrs' children.
Yet out Of that mere glimmer
of unseIfshness which led them to
care a very little for those direct
ly dependent upon them, has
grown the vast system Of mutual
helpfulness and practical consid-
Grafton for others that brightens
our time, and will, eventually,
Danish the last remnants of the
brute age from human life.

Brain VS.. Drawn.


Brain VS.. Drawn.
The gorilla-lilSe creature with
the appraised club, the face Of a
devil and the limbs of a giant, and
his antagonist with the flint knife
and the profile Of cunning ape
are human beings who, as yet,
know only one side of their ma
ture-the brute side.
Under those fiat skulls there Is
just enough intelligence to enable
their owners TO sharpen a piece Of
flint to a cutting edge, and to tie
a stone to the end of a club in
order to make a more effective
weapon.
But it is this spark Of inteli-
gence which, transmitted to their
descendants, will found the mag
nificent race of intellectual man!
With absolute Inconsistencies
Of what they are really doing,
these creatures are cultivating the
BRAINS that are to save their
kind from the common fate Of
mere brutes. The germ of every
art and science was in the max
ing Of that flint knife. the tying
or that stone to a stick, the sharp
ening Of that javelin in the fire.
Two mere brutes would have
fought for that prey with the
weapons that nature gave them
teeth and claws.
These creatures have already
proved their superiority by IN
VENTING something better to
tight with. They are fighting with
their brains, although they are not
yet aware that they have any
brains.
Their descendants will use guns,
swords and bullets instead OF
stone clubs, flint knives and fire.
