ENTRIES OF CLASS
IN Spring STAKES
Success Assured for Annual Handi-
caps on New York Race
Tracks.

Fifty-seven nominations for the
Metropolitan Handicap and only four
fewer names for the Suburban Handi-
cap tells the first tale of what may be
looked for in the big handbags about
the New York race courses in 1916.
These stakes. TO be decided at Bel
mont Park next spring, were only
very recently closed and Secretary A.
Mel. Earlocker has just completed
his compilation of the returns.
In all there were Ii of the spring
stakes closed and they show the very
liberal total of 571 names. This is
surprisingly good showing. when ii is
considered that many questioned the
wisdom OF having such an early
closing of the stakes.
What is of altogether new interest
IS the presence of several recently I'M
ported horses in these fixtures, and
lille il is natural that most of them
are :ound in the races for 2-year-olds
the handicaps carry the names of
TI"ny that have been imported and
who promise to play an important
part both in American racing and the
breeding industry.
Fixtures for the 2-year-olds. as
usual have had the call over the races
for horses Of more mature age and
the best of these in point of numbers
is the Eeene Memorial with eighty
six names in the eligible list. This.
like the other 2-year-old races. has
brought n bigger number of foreign
brcds than the races for older horses.
for I great m2 jority of the horses i'm
ported this fall are yearlings.
The other stakes that were closed
were the Ladies. with thirty nomina-
tions; TobOEgan Handicap, fifty-three:
Harlem Selling. thirty-two: Amateur
Cup. nineteen; Hollis Selling, thirty
five: Juvenile. eighty-two; Fashion.
sixty-siX: bouquet. fifty-eight. In ad-
dition to these the Belmont for 1917
closed with ninety-four yearling nom
irrtions. while the Withers for 1917
brought out LIZ nominators

YALE OARSMEN TO HAVE
NEW TRAINING QUARTERS

New Haven. Conn.,, Dec. 3.-The an
nouncement that Yale crews would
have their spring practice on the
Housatonic River. below Derby, on a
four-mile course recommended by the
crew committee. received the atten-
tion Of Yale undergraduates today.
The crews will abandon the harbor
entirely Should the Housatonic prove
to be an ideal course arrangements
will be made to transfer by barges
the George Adee boathouse, which
cost 100000 to erect.
The recommendation OF the crew
committee favoring the change does
not come as a surprise. Recently a
number of former oarsmen who cx-
amined the river reported informally
that In their opinion four-mile
course was available which was as
good or even better than that at New
London on the Thames River. The
new course is availa Die not only for
crew practice. but for intercollegiate
regattas.

Child Labor Law
In 1911 North Dakota passed the
following law to prohibit the employ
ment Of children (a) under IA years,
lin any mine, factory, workship, mer.
camille establishment, store, business
Office, telegraph Office, restaurant, ho-
tel, apartment house or in the distri-
button or transmission of merchan
disc or messages, or in any business
whatever, during the hours the public
schools are in session, children (b) I'M
der is years are prohibited in any
employment dangerous to life or limb
or where health may be injured or
morals depraved." The hours of labor
shall not be more than 4S hours in a
week, nor more than eight hours a
day, nor before q. m. or after z
p. M"
The above is an excellent law, but it
lacks enforcement. II arrangements
for the Capitalization Of the authority
to enforce this were made, it might
be more effective.
Medical Inspection
Also in 1911 the following was pass
ed: "The board of any school corpor-
alton may employ one or more physic-
ians as medical inspectors of schools
II that. word may" were changed to
shall" and properly observed, much
good would be done to the rising gen.
Grafton.
The Juvenile Court
In 1911 we passed a juvenile court
law, but the fact that the district
court shall have original Jurisdiction
in all cases coming within the terms
of this act" is a serious handicap.
Why should there not also be pro-
vision for the punishment of those
who wilfully contribute to the depend
ency or delinquency of such children?
Obscene Literature
Section 8948. Chapter XIV. of the
Penal Code of 1895 provides that any-,
one who sells, lends or gives away
any work, pamphlet, magazine, news
paper, story paper or other printed
publication devoted to the dissemina--
ton of criminal news, police reports:
or accounts of criminal deeds or stor-
les Of deeds or bloodshed, lust or
crime, is guilty of a misdemeanQy, and
upon conviction is punishable by i'm.
prisonment in the county Jail not ex--
ceeding six months or by fine not ex-
ceeding $500 or BOTH"
BY all means, this is one of the
laws which every clean-minded man
and woman should endeavor to en-
force. One of the very greatest influ-
ences in the formation of character js
the reading which is done during:
youthful years, and this pernicious.
stuff which circulates so freely ought.
to be relegated to oblivion and it's dis
tributers punished severely.
Only in so far as public opinion de-
sires the enforcement of any law will
it be accomplished Let us all be up
and doing"
