The founding is the daughter

of his wonderful love for his wife,
the artist hates the child that

The tragedy of his wife's death
brings the artist the master
touch that he has sought SO long,
and in the years that follow he
wins fame and fortune; but In the
sunset of life he realizes it's
emptiness and yearns for the re-
turn of the child he had driven
from his house. She, in the
meantime, has drifted through a
strange and varying life. How
the threads of destiny re-unite

Supervisor Lynch is not to be com

afford to keep her public lavatories

month to do a char woman's work.
The char would not be a sue
cess at the matron's job as superiu-
tendent Of the rest room and either
job alone is worth the s25 per month
or nearly so. Neither is it the best
plan for a man as ~janitor to clean wa

LOCAL COMMENT

1t was a good fair in spite OF bad
weather and bad roads early in the
| week. The exhibits were we'll up to
| standard and worth seeing. The inn
provements to buildings md grounds
are beginning to make the fair far
more convenient to those who come
to view the display. The fair again
has been a success but it has some bad
spots in 1t.
The concessions are not censored as
they ought to be. Several real gam
bling devices we're closed on the first
day but there were many left running
that were just shady enough to be
in the twilight n Many OF those
doll racks were conducted as games OF
chance in fact and were bats for easy
money from nnsuspecting victims fully
as much as any slot machine in a cigar
store. The device that rewarded win
ners with q sudden exposure OF two
females kicking up their heels, while
not in the class Of indecency, was just
course enough to hold a group OF rough
and coarse men round it and has
no place in an exhibition which Mar
shall county has just put on for edu-
cational purposes. The men, women
and children Of Marshall county's fam
lilies do not like to be thrown into as
scciatIon with such spectacles. This
fair is a big family picnic. Nobody
makes private profit out OF 1t. The
county furnishes the grounds out Of
taxpayers money for the good the ex-
hibiton can do in promoting better
agriculture. It is not a carnival and
the amusements should be kept up to
the standard Of the ideals for which
the exposition Is held. These conces-
sions pay from so to SIS apiece and
lust about $500 worth OF them ought
to be barred out. No old settlers Pic
mic committee would ever dream OF
letting many Of them disgrace their
annual gathering.
The time has arrived to consider a
substitute for the trotting horse as an
amusement. Running horses will al
ways hold their place because Of the
excitement In their dash but we no
longer use horses for trotting pur--
poses. Our young people ten years ago
ceased to have n interest In the
driving horse and they IRE heads -of
1AmllleS now. "A Lew" Olu ACL1OWS pdSs
40 and upwards will retain their in
terest but this is the age Of the motor
car. The tractor demonstrations ara
bringing the big crowds. The airship
has not yet lost its excitement. The
bail game will ever be a drawing card.
Other amusements must soon be found
to take the place of the trottfng horse.
Harness races are now costing the fair
association approximately $1.70o over
and above the entrance fees. This
money would go a long ways toward
providing a program that is modern.
The Times Republican urged the
building OF permanent exhibit halls for
merchants several years before they
were attempted. Now they are one Of
the big features of the fair. This
newspaper urged and repeated that
the people were demanding sanitary
public comfort stations was
years before they were built, but ev-
