SUNSHINE AND A D
Artemise r. Darlington

Many million miles away
from earth far out beyond the
brightest &c d has
p | &C d the sun, that
huge ball of fire upon which
the existence of man so great
" depends. Were its light
extinguished, earth would
grow cold and become barren,
plant and animal would die
and lastly man Invested Of all
those things necessary for pro-
longing his existence, would
be no more.
Again were there perpetual
sunshine, earth would be
scorched, it would yield no
fruit and Mother Nature
fail in her mission. But this
is not the design Of the Gre
ator. Divine Providence has
regulated the laws of nature
SO that there will be both sum
shine and shadoW-earth
shall bear fruit, plant, animal
and man shall live and give
homage and glory to the Gre
ator.
Sunshine is one of the great
est blessings God has given
man. It is beneficial not only
to his material good but also
to that Of his spirit. The sun
paints in beautiful colors the
sublime picture of nature
making the brilliant dyes
blend with deep shadow and
thus producing a perfect mas
terpiece. For the sun casts
long shadows upon the earth,
a fact which only illustrates
more wildly the perfect color
scheme of nature. Shade and
shine, it seems, have been en-
tangled by some wild wind
are inseparable. The trees
show us a shadow for every
leaf,-in the rose there is a
for every petal. The
sunshine falling upon the blue
waters of the lake, brings out
the various tints therein and
causes them to sparkle like so
many brilliant opals. Upon
the long sunny roadway we
find shadow tracing fantastic
design and too upon the sunlit
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1915-12-25

Sun, Our Divine Lord Himself,
comes bringing heavenly Sun
shine to flee the shadow of
death. And Oh, the glory of
that Blessed Sunshine How
it expells all shadow and sor-
row! How it fills the longing
soul with love divine.
And erelong the wearied
one meets the beautiful smile
of the Savior and at last finds
rest and peace in His Sacred
Heart,-the rest, the peace,
the love that lives throughout
Eternity.

Every object kissed by the
sun has its shadow and the
shadows are messages from
the land of the sun.
To human life, as in nature.
sunshine and shadow play a
most important part. Light
and shade are the very es-
senee of life-they mark its
every phase. Youth has often
been called the morning Of
llfe-its sunshine. And so #
IS. Childhood days, we are
told, are the happiest. They
are filled with joy, hope and
noble aspirations. The world
IS viewed only through young
and happy eyes for youth sees
nothing through dark specta-
cIes. Glorious visions bear
Ing only the card Happiness
arise before the youthful
mind filling it with the bright
est sunshine.
A great sunlit garden. can
opled by a rainbow sky. in
which grow flowers of every
hue, filling the surrounding
air with fragrance,-long
alsles, smooth and white
barely marked by the foot
prints OF time, majestic foun-
talns which send their crystal
waters heavenward-this the
garden of youth, the garden
OF the sunshine. Here there
Is JOY, here hope, here love.
Here the soul may look far ont
upon that tumultuous e of
life and still remain in undis-
turbed peace for little does
youth know Of the storms and
tempests which cause the
waves upon life's sea to dash
nigh IN angry fury-little does
i know OF the many ship
wrecks caused by the shin
crashing against the rocks or
sprlnglng a leak in mid-ocean.
The curtain of innocence and
purity forbids the eyes of
youth to gaze upon such trag-
edles. And so the sun Of
youth shines on, flooding the
hearts of all with beautiful
sunshlne-With happiness
with JOY. But every day
must have its shade, sunshine
must give place to shadow
50 youth must give place to
Old Age.
The day wanes, the last
trace OF sunshine f1ees before
the gathering darkness. the
last note of the hooking
bird has been borne awav by
the evening breeze and from
the distance there comes the
sweet treble of the night
ngale,-deep shadow en-
CULTS the day.
It is the evening of life, the
period of old age-the time of
sadness for the bright rays
rom the sun of youth have i
lied away and only the silver
moonlight shines upon the
earth and moonlight adds
oathos of life.
Here in the valley of the

J. S. Owenby Has Rounded
Wanda Pitzer and Carlton
C. Into Form for Southern
Maryland Meet.
LITTLE NEARER TO RUN

Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 81. S. Owenby
has his two breadwinners. Wanda
Pitzer and Carlton G., in Just about as
good condition as it is possible to get
horses for the coming meeting of the
Southern Maryland Agricultural Fair
Association at Bowie race track, Novem-
Der Is to 30, inclusive. Wanda Pitzer ran
to her best Saratoga form when she took
place money behind PuIlux at Pimlico
on Saturday, and she would just about
have won IL she had had bit OF luck.
Wanda Pitzer has all of her old-time
dash and she seems to be willing to give
over her best.
The veteran Carlton G. is not the first
class handicap horse he was couple of
years ago, but Owenby is not trying any
more to win handicaps with him. Carl
ton G. is combining his activities to sell
ing races and beating the smartest of
the ordinary distance runners at one
mile and a sixteenth. one mile and fur
long, and one mile and a quarter.
This, by the way, is to be the last sea-
son of racing for Carlton G. The strap
ping son of Carlton Grange, who has
splendid bone and muscular development
and superb conformation withaL is to go
to the stud in Virginia after the Bowie
meeting to get hunters. And he is just
the sort of horse for that kind of service
The English stable OF Oscar Lewisohn
constitutes only part of the establish
ment John Whalen will take to Bowie
this week. There are in Whalen's string
contingents of the stables of Clarence
Robbins NJ. ]. Leonard, and David Gid
con. Mr.. Robbins, who will be rermem-
bered as, the owner of that good Ham,
burg horse Buskin, winner of last sea-
sons Metropolitan Handicap. will be rep
resented at Bowie by Little Nearer. a
capital distance-running son of Golden
Maxim.
Buskin, unluckiIy, will not be seen at
the Southern Maryland track. He is
laid up with a bad leg, resting for next
seasons campaigning. Little Nearer is
hardly a horse of the class Of Buskin,
but he is capable of beating first-rate
platers over distances of ground
Lille Heavens is the hope of the Leon
ard Stable. She is a daughter Of Great
Heavens and a 2-year-old that has
stood the acid test of racing. Lille
Heavens came to the post first at Havre
de Grace in April and she has come back
TO Baltimore in November as fresh as
she was at the beginning of the year.
PuliuN. the only horse racing for Mr..
Gideon this autumn. is a home-bred son
OF Astronomer, and Splinter of no I'M
common ability. He is capable of three
quarters in 1:lS or better, and he will go
to Bowie AT the top of his form.

General Conference Is Called
to Settle Once and for
All the Question of Com
petition.
TRINITY AND YALE CASE

The intercollegiate Association of Anna
teur Athletes of America will start al
once TO settle the question OF competition
by amateurs in certain sports after re-
ceiving money indirectly for participa-
ton In another. Resolutions were adopt
ed at a meeting yesterday at the home of
Gustavus T. Kirby. calling for a meeting
OF the governing bodies of all sports to
form a definition for all amateurs.
The direct cause of the present move
ment Is the case OF George Brickley. of
Trinity. and the five Yale men who have
been barred from competition for accept
Ing free board while playing summer
baseball The resolutions adopted con-
tanned the following problems that must
be threshed out at a general conference
of all amateur bodies:
Should or should not every organiza-
ton governing competition by amateurs
debar from competition any one who has
at any time competed or taken part in
an athletic sport or exercise for money.
irrespective OF whether such sport or ex-
ercise is one over which either in whole
or In part such organization has or claims
Jurisdiction?
Should or should not an organization
governing one sport debar from compeu-
ton therein one who has become a pro-
fessional by reason of having competed
or taken part in an athletic exercise for
money in a sport over which such or
ganization has control. for example:
Should the Amateur Athletic Union
and the /. c. A. A. A A. permit a man
to take part in amateur track and field
athletics who was or had been a profess
sional ball player? or
SHOULD the United States Golf Asso-
citation permit a man to take part as an
amateur in a golf championship who was
or had been a professional ball player,
or professional track athlete?
What distinction, IL any. should be
drawn between actual competing or TAX
ing part In an athletic exercise for mon
ey. or receiving remuneration for coach
ing team, rendering service as an in
structor at a playground or at a sum-
mer camp, or the like?
What distinction. II any. should be
drawn between competition for money or
coaching for money or giving instruction
for money when the same is done dur
ing vacation period of a university by
a college student, and when done or per-
formed at some other period?
IF any organization governing par
ticipation in any sport. even though II
be that such organization consists OF but
two members, such as, for example two
universities or colleges. has eligibility
rules permitting competition by profess
SIGNALS with amateurs should or should
not organizations governing other sports
continue to consider as amateurs those
who have thus competed with or against
such professionals?
