hullabaloo:

The crowd roars a short laugh OF
approval. SO they plunge, rear, bite,
squeal, kick and strike, roll and
crowd, but in the midst OF this mass
OF untamed horses and agile, strong
men OF iron nerve It is a marvel how
any escape this melee Of teeth and
hoofs. But somehow they do, save
for few minor injuries When the
last horse is saddled, the signal Is
given to mount. and with only halter
rope they must ride their -horses
around the track. Such scene may
indeed warrant the expression of one
visiting onlooker who qualified 1t as
"god-snapped movey." Twenty
horses were leaving undone no twist
turn. or jump to shake their riders.
Not a rail of the fence in front of the
grandstand had been left, and now,

sections. One horse, not content with
this took wire fence, post and all,
landing in the nearby bleachers.
others were fast smashing into
kindling wood distant sections of the
arena fence, some took to bucking.
others were running away.
The thousand-eyed throng sees
them from every angle. For three
whole days the vast adience had
breathed their thoughts and exelama-
tions with one accord, and were now
swept by the swift wind of human
passion, taut as steel and biting as a
knife. Then nature broke and,
whooping wildly, let loose over the
big arena. When these last twenty
minutes of whirlwind of dust and
danger were over, the crowd stood
spellbound where 1t had been stand
ing for the last half hour Many re-
mained to drink in the scene until
the lowering September after-glow
silhoutted the rolling hills and the
cottonwoods, ana from the camp be-
meath, the tepee smokes. of sagebrush
and grease wood burned an incense
to the god of the range and freedom,
and down beneath in the dark shad-
ows an occasional camp fire glowed
red.
The Roundup means more than a
great. hazardous. thrilling spectacle.

Walter C. Hagen, the young Roch-
ester, N. Y, professional, won the
national open golf championship, at
Midlothian with a remarkable score
of 290. Only one stroke back Of the
fastener was Chick Evans, the Edge
water amateur star, who made re-
markable recovery after poor score
on the first SO holes and shot 141 in
the final SO.
Hagen led Evans eight strokes
when the men teed of yesterday, ;.
Mediocre putting again was costly to
Evans, as Hagen won the title on the
greens.
George Sargent and Fred Mcleod,
pros from the District of Columbia,
tied for third place with 297. Francis
Ouimet, who won the championship
last year, tied for fifth with 29S,
better score than he needed last year
to earn the honors. The good work
of Evans and Ouimet put two anna
teurs in the prizewinners for the first
time in the history Of the open cham
pionship tournaments.
Considerable credit goes to William
Rautenbusch, the Garfield Park anna
teur, who, stacked against the best
of the country, finished with 301 for
the 70 holes, landing 18th, just out
side the prize winners. Rautenbusch
defeated such sterling pros as Tom
Mcnamara and Walter Forvargue
and outclassed Warren Wood and
Kenneth Edwards among the anna

RURAL LIFE

There is still a good deal of talk
.bout success having its beginning
~ the farm. Rural Life Magazines
and literature of various kinds is
aOoding the country and there is an
effort to inspire the youth of the
land and older people as well, with
tho idea that the farm is the place to
live and exchange comments as fol-
lows:
ANY boy or girl on our farms today
NAV prepare for useful service to So
c;etv. Success awaits those who earn
it; wealth, fame and contented living
NAV be acquired by any who merit
Seh achievements. AS general
thing, we rise no higher than we aim.
There is no better place than the
farm to prepare for useful service to
society. Here we are brought in close
contact with the devine laws of ma
ture; the environment trains the mind
and builds strong body. Health, per-
severance and endurance are ac-
ouired while the mind is receptive.
The incentive for greater things may
lead one away from the farm, but
/ what does society care so long as
| there are others left to till the soil
and serve as leaders in the rural COM
|munity?
In spite of this however, people
throng the cities and thousands of
boys from one end of the country to
the other are leaving the farm for
more attractive and lucrative employ
ment. That this is bad for the coun-
try no one will deny, but that it is
true it is useless to deny. Of course
there is a reason for it. The reason
is that their educational advantages
ARE not as good as they should be in
the country. The advantages of So
ciety are not open to young men and
women who live on the farm and this
Is due largely to the fact that trans
pOrtation is still an unsolved problem

SALOON IS TOLERATED

The saloon Is an outlaw and nui-
sance, and It lives by sufferance where
It lives at all. You do not defend
the saloon as an institution; you toll
crate It, II you tolerate 1t at all. on
the theory that II you tried to abolish
is you might get something worse.
You cannot build slaughter house

people around you. because you can
not confine the odors to your own

TEMPERANCE COMING

In her stirring address before the
National w. c. I. U. convention at
Asbury Park, N. j., and later speaking
before the house judiciary committee
In Washington, Mrs. Mary Harris Ar
NOR. the Georgia cyclone" gave some
OF the reasons why we may look for
saloonless nation in 1920" We
| quote:
I believe that Jesus Christ meant
what he said and said what he meant
when he declared. All power Is given
unto me In heaven and In earth and |
believe that the God who made the
sun stand still on Gideon, and the
moon on Ajalon, at the cry of his
nghting. praying, believing servant,
Joshua, is perfectly able to smash the
liquor traffic into everlasting smither-
Gems, whenever we get ready.
The old order changes, giving
place to new. and God fulfllls himself
In many ways He has promised the
destruction Of the liquor traffic in these
words, Every tree that bringeth not
forth good fruit Is hewn down and
cast into the fire. Certainly no man
would say that the liquor traffic brings
forth good fruit; hence the liquor
traffic must go.
One OF the ways in which God Is
fulfilling this promise is through his
eternal truth in science. King Alco-
hol has marched down the ages for
these thousands Of years, conquering
and to conquer, until the centuries
sob with a ceaseless SORROW but at
last science has burst the blood-rust-
ed chain that bound her for a thou
sand years, has seized the shining two
edged sword OF Gods eternal truth,
and challenges the monster to mortal
combat. To doubt the issue Is to doubt
the sanity Of the human race and the
power of the everlasting God.
Il believe we shall have a saloonless
nation in 1920, because public senti-
ment is opposed to the liquor traffic.
The persistent education along scien-
tho temperance lines, instituted by
the Woman's Christian Temperance
union years ago, is bearing fruit today
in mighty army Of young men and
young women in the various religious
and philanthropic organizations In
our schools and colleges. and even In
the halls OF congress.
The liquor traffic is doomed to
speedy destruction because 1t Is op-
posed to common sense. Hasn't 1t al
ways been opposed to common sense?
Yes. but people have not been exer-
cising their common sense In this d.
rection until comparatively recent
years. for two reasons: First. be-
cause Gods eternal truth in science
had not been revealed on this cues
ton as 1t is today; second, the world
is better today than ever before, and
the public mind Is obsessed with the
idea OF the preservation and prolonga-
ton OF human life. Eugenics is the
most popular fad of the day. City,
state, and national governments are
looking after the health OF the people
as never before. They swat the ny,
they go on a still hunt for the mos
quito, they beard the hookworm In his
den, and the germs must fly for their
lives The human race has learned
that no man liveth to himself and no
man dieth to himself and reforma-
ton Is the watchword of the hour;
hence men are training their common
sense on this question, and the liquor
traffic must go
