concerns that have never before been
exhibitors at the Trenton Fair will be
on the grounds this year from Septem-
Der % to 20.
One feature will be a miniature house
occupying a space % X 35 feet, aglow
with electric lights. On the porch of
the house will be displayed the ap-
paratus which furnishes the power for
the Illumination. This exhibit will be
conducted by the Domestic Engineer
ing Company of Dayton, O., makers of
Delco Light. They have adopted for
their slogan, Electricity for every
farmer" and those who still adhere to
the oil lamp for illumination should NOT
fail to see it.
The commercial Auto Show, formerly
held under a tent in Section "H," has
been given a new location for 1915, and
Superintendent Salter has filed all of
this section with other exhibits. 7.
Jones & Bro, Baugh & Sons, who We're
temporarily moved last year, have re-
turned to their old space.
The Columbia Film company will
occupy one entire end of this section

r1culturists.
The Trenton Bone and Fertilizer
company will be at its usual place at
the end of section H, fronting Avenue
f, and the Ttlley Ladder company will
discuss its merchandise from its loca-
ton of many years.
An unusual demonstration is expect
ed in absolutely the latest machinery

that visitors at the Fair will be able
to see some of the great pieces of
machinery used on the farms of the
west.

objects to Sowing Tares.

One Michigan county commissioner
made a talk on this subject using as
his text the parable of the wheat and
the tares. Now about these Seeding
miles of road, built with free mate
rial, you remember that the enemy
came In the night and sowed tares that
grew up and choked the wheat. l
don't think we ought to SOW tares or
any other kind of wild highway oats
even If we can find some one to give
us the seed
MY idea is that we should find out
what kind of roads we want and then
build that kind. l am opposed to
adopting any type of road because
some one is willing to give us some
thing. If we do that we shall not get
roads with the reputation Of years
back of them-roads that we know by
experience are good-because nobody
is going to give us the material for
roads of esta blished reputation-they
don't need to do So"

Notwithstanding the well-known
proverb, 1t is sometimes wise to look
a gift horse in the mouth
For instance, a county may be of

build a small stretch of road That
looks like a good proposition-One on
which a community could not lose. But
there is another side to the story.
The gift of material is of course only
the entering wedge The expectation
is that having started with the kind of
material that is given away for dem

keep on with the same kind of con

that nobody wants particularly may be

Gifts May Prove Costly.
Furthermore, in some states-nOtably
Illinois-the highway law says that a

first instance
But the question remains of course

INTERNATIONAL
 ATHLETICS

American Supremacy in interna- tiona1 amateur athletic meets is likely to be further accentuated a result of the war, which has already cost the lives of many of the European stars. Few realize how recent is Americas entrance into worldwide athletic activities. In fact, it was just thirty-five years ago tomorrow, June 25, 1881, that American anna teur athletes first displayed their prowess on European soil. Lon My CTS of New York and B. B. Merrill, of the Union A. c. of Boston, were the first to carry the American co1ors to England and compete against the best of that country. They made their, initial appearance at the Stam- ford Bridge grounds of the London A. c. on the date above given. and surprised the populace by winning g two events with the greatest ease, Myers taking the quarter mile with out going to his limit, while Merrill won the two-mile walk. Myers and Merrill captured several other events in England and they were given a continuous ovation by the British sportsnen. In the British champion ships held in July Myers won the quarter mile in AS 3-5 seconds, setting up a new British record. The fol- lowing year interest in internationa competition was further stirred by the visit to America of W. G. George, the crack long distance runner of John Bulls island. He was defeated by Myers at half a mile, but had the best of it at the three-quarters and the mile. Myers returned to England in 1884, accompanied by another sprinter. Arthur WaIdron; Harry Fredericks, a long distance runner, and tCinders'' Murray, walker. They opened the eyes of the English men in regard to American athletes and since then international events of this sort have been of frequent oc- currence, culminating in the Olympic games

FRED TONEY OF REDS OUT TO BREAK RECORD
 OF 1915. ON THE MOUND

Fred Toney is making good his boast. The big Tennesseean who last winter declared he would win 25 games for the Cincinnati Reds this season if they'd get him four runs per game has swung into his stride and is going like streak.
 In three consecutive starts Toney had to pitch longer than the regula- tfon distance. He hit his real stride May 31 when he tanned the Pirates. 5 to 2, in 6 innings. He next beat the Giants to 2 in 10 rounds and a few days later worked Il scoreless ses- sions against Boston on a water logged diamond. This contest went 16 innings, Schneider finishing.
 In 4 engagements Toney has work ed five games in which he has allow ed his opponents for or more runs, losing four of them. In nine other games he never has allowed more than two runs per battle. Red fans say Toney has struck his gait and from now on will be terror for hos tile batsmen.

Business Agent Marshall Explains Status of His As
 sociation Here.

Explaining the status of the Retail Clerks associa ton, in reference to closing hours, Robert K. Marshall, the business agent of the organization, said today that the association has not at any time sought to effect a half holiday, on any day of the week, but has tried to cooperate with the mer- chants in bringing about a uniform closing hour for all business houses.
 Mr. Marshall said that there was a pronounced sentiment among the mer- chants towards a half holiday for Wednesday, but that owing to the at titude of several of the larger mer- chants this was not a likelihood, at present!
 The closing hour of the principal stores now is o'clock except on Sat urdays when the dry goods stores close at g and the clothing stores at 10 o'clock The notable exception is the D. M. Read Co.,, which closes at 6 o'clock every day, including Satur- days.
 The summer schedule in the stores has not yet been arranged.

 Jack Dillon is ent ~taining crowds daily at Washington Park, where he is training in the open for his bout with Moran.
 The out-of-town demand and the local sale of tickets for the fight are large. Every seat, except the admts- sions, is reserved. The $2 adnais- sions are to be placed on sale Tues day morning at g o'clock. They will be sold at Washington Park only. No more than two will be sold to nny in- dividual.
