Philadelphia, May 31.-F'ive har-
ness races were decided over the re-
modelled half-mile track of the Frank

Patch, 2.0714, owned and driven by
E. O. Mauger, and Bonnie Boy, 2.07 a

BRAVE BIRDS.

Dr. Arthur A Allen head of the pathological depart ment of Cornell University, new theory of courage. Commenting on the apparent indifference of birds to shefre the European battlegrounds, he tributes courage proceeds to explain why the birds brave.
 Courage" he says "is simply matter of tempera: ture He attributes the superior earessness the the fact that they rapid pulse and higher temperature than human beings
 It's an interesting theory but wholly convincing Do those birds build in the shattered woods and banging trenches because they're brave or because they don't know any better? doesn't look like logical test of courage.
 When it the tests, certainly Profo ssor Aliens theory falls down. Isn't a as warm as an English sparrow, buzzard an eagle? Then why isn't brave? LkeSise with animals The rabbit has quicker pulse and as high empera- ture the dog that chases him. Yet rabbit often parayzed with fear the sight danger cant the legs the Lord gave him. A lion isn't any than COW.
 And when it comes to man, what has blood heat to do with courage? high temperature may make q man excitabc but necessarily brave We speak of the cold feet" of fear, but speak still of "cool courage. And that's the courage admired It's the calm eye and steady hand, wl the deliberate purpose back of them, that feared game or combat And most of the worlds fighters have been known "coldbloodcd" men.

INTERSTATE TRAFFIC WOULD GAIN UNDER
 FEDERAL D!cTUM
New Turn Given to Argument For States Rights by Rail- ways Counsel who Endorse Government Control.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-A new turn to the argument that states rights would be invaded if the feder- al government had sole power to reg ulate and control interstate carriers was given today before tbe joint con gressiOnal committee investigating transportation problems by A. P. Thom, counsel for the railway eXecu- 'tives' advisory committee.
 MT ThOm declared that the vesting of such exclusive powers in the hands of federal regulating board would protect the rights of states. He based his conclusion on many instances in, which the effect of actions by state railway commissions has been to in- terfere with commerce in neighboring states. Emphasis WAS laid upon the situation which had followed the re- cent interstate commerce commission order for re-alignment Of rates throughout the. southeast, under the long and short haul clause of the rail road rate law. The effectiveness of these orders has been suspended. MT. Thom said. while the Georgia state sailroad commission has for six 1lonths examined them, and the bene- sts the commission expected to ex- tend to that entire section of the coun try has been held in abeyance. He spoke also of those to be decided by the interstate commerce commission involving a clash between the federal commission and the Texas State Com mission over interstate and intrastate rate.
 MT. Thom said the framers of the constitution gave the right to regu- late commerce among the states to congress because the history of the colonies showed that unwise. unfair and even dangerous measures result ed from attempts to encourage iGdi- vidual commerce at expense of others.

THE ART OF DOING WITHOUT.

As' time goes by the virtue of self denial is more and more apparent and doing without more needed The social fascnatons of today, the for dress amusements recreation, automobling the glitter and attractions of materalistic age-can loudly for self control self denial and careful living And those who try keep pace with the crowd pace that kills
 No ever succeeds who does not learn do with out The very basis of religion, of good conduct, or good character lies in the virtue self control is the highest evidence of self mastery and the foundation of all social and ness success.
 Did you stop to watch crowd around a street fakr selling some article of household use-a potato peeer, for instance? How he persuaded the that their wives could peel potatoes without it. ready purchasers laid down their quarters home and presented article with pride and right feeling helping wife in her daily labor only to find her peelng poatoes the old way day?
 We listen to argument We persuade ourselves. We are easily convinced that need, in fact have many things that we might well do without We see things in the shop windows that appeal We read aur- ing ads until resisting power breaks down. We go bargain hunting un.n loaded down with things we cannot use. q like to go shopping" said day, q many things do need" And that is finer art tan buying lot of things you will be sorry for
 Doing without may be difficult times but it gets somewhere All successful careers are built upon it. Saving money and doing without painful process the results mighty pleasant Sacrifice easy and self denial popular But you can't have the big things of life if you insist upon having thousands little things all the time. The boy who a bicycle must do without candy and soda and the like but he knows his wheel will give him lasting pleasures that balance the little sacrifices Saving for purpose is difficult and sefdenial for larger pleasures becomes oy It is follow the line of least resistance-to do the easy thing; follow the crowd But following crowds brings you desirable goal.
 It is splendid achievement-this doing without and few learn it. But the it builds lasting and beautiful

ELECTION CONTEST.

ELECTION CONTEST.
 There no abatement in the interest taken in the fight proposed to by partisans over defeat They undeteTred by the refusal of the Democratic party Arizona endorse the proceed ings. This refusal expressed by State Chairman Stoneman who informed Governor that the State Democratic Committee would be a party a contest and that if one brought must be upon personal responsibility of the Governor.
 Every opinion volunteered on the merits the case of interest this The Review gladly reprints the following the Arizona ReDubI can:
 Pursuing still further the enect of effect of ancient election law on ballots which would be brought into dispute in the of contest of MT C&mpbels election, find that that old law which has been relied upon by the friends Hunt hundreds Campbell votes, and pre- counting Campbell of other hundreds which for him but rejected regarded the intent of the supreme
 The old law which have shown is appiic- able system and has been regarded the adoption by this state of the Australian system provides that when candidates voted for than be chosen office all the voted for be rejected But this paragraph, 2979 Revised Statutes says except case provided the section
 "The next section paragraph 29SO, provides
 "'When upon ballot found in any ballot box a printed name and a name written in ink or with pencil appears, followed by a cross in the proper square and there not many persons to be chosen for the office, the printed be jected and the written counted, and the at the time be noted the back the ballot such be signed by a majority of the cleo tion board
 Thus under the old system might vote straight ticket he do by placing in the square the top of yet should substitute for printed written that regarded evidence the voter did intend straight ticket So in spite of Paragraph 2979, the denied pression of his choice than the candidate whose had been printed the ballot He was not be deprived choice because of his careessness confusion unless character as to leave the election board in doubt his intention
 That should place square opposite the of candidate a ticket a ballot after having put the square at the top of another ticket would leave no doubt of his intention under our present system than would his writing in name in list under the old system The old prevented rejection which there were two votes for the person. put only one Of them counted The law seemed designed to interfere slightly possible with the privilege the restrictions mainly against parties who prepared the ballots for at that time there official ballots know them 
 This law it must be borne in mind is still on the statute books; is the which the friends of the governor rely in Of contest Yet can be seen how nappcable is is of interest only as show ing that the intent of the was always the main thing to be considered"
