LARGE FIELD WILL
GET AWAY IN RACE
IN OLD KENTUCKY

LOUISVILLE, Ky. May 1O.-Sixty-
nine nominations were sent to the
Churchill Downs track for the run
ming of the Kentucky Derby, historic
classic Of the American turf. on the
famous old track tomorrow.
OF the sixty-nine. OF course, only
a few will start. although the num-

year IL expected 10 be one Of the
\ largest fields that ever competed in
the race.
- Sun Briar. W. S. KiImer's cham
pion two-ysar-oId of last season, was
the favorits to pick OF the plum I'M
I'll short time ago. when he failed
iniserably against a field Of mediocre
starters in a race at Lexington. Ru
mors have given this youngster every
kind of an ailment, and a prevalent
one is that the star Of 1917 is affict-
ed so badly with ring-bOne that he
may be scratched from the race. He
will be watched with care, however
by horse followers, for on his form OF
year ago he should be & big favor
lite.
Aside from Sun Brisr, interest I'M
doubtedly will settle around Escoba,
the Western star with SO many brill
liant performances last season. He
Is the favorite Of Kentucky breeders,
and will go TO the post heavily
backed.

Freeeutter will carry many bets
under their cOlors. The latter seems
to have been picked for the dark
horse position. His performances
to have been unusually brilliant for a
coming three-year-old. He runs very
well in mud.
Popular interest in the great race
has waned somewhat for the forty
ninth running, but the opening OF
Lexington Park and the gradual ap
preaching of the opening at Church
Ill Downs has stimulated interest far
over what had been expected during
the war. transportation difficulties
have been great. and Eastern horses
have suffered somewhat from delay
in travels, but the horses were said
to-day to be in excellent condition.

"SONIE PARTY"

'SOME PAkI1"
Pats reiteration of the request
set me to thinking, little book, II
1t would be right to give your
contents to him to be read by all
the world. If all you contain
were published for the benefit of
the readers of Pats papers what
would the average woman think
of it? Would she recognize the
fact that | have been perfectly
honest not only with myself, but
with you?
There have been many confess
sions written, little book, since
man has learned to write, but
very few of them have really con-
fessed. Into you, because / have
had no thought of other eyes or
other judges, / have written my
own souls history. Into you I
have put my religion, my creed,
my philosophy, my manner and
method of life.
Some of the stories that l did
not live myself-those of my
friends I mean-reflect quite as
much my aspirations and ideals,
thru my comments on them, as
do the struggles and. standings
of my own life as chronicled.
! would be as great a woman,
little book, as Mollie, as setadfast
as Eliene, as clever as Donna, as
sensible as Annie and as sympa-
thetic as Alice.
Instead, I see myself as only
Margie Waverly, who has set
down without fear her good side
and her bad. Neither Rousseau
nor even Marie Bashkirtseff,
those arch confessors of litera-
ture, have been more sincere in
putting the heart and soul of a
woman on 'dissecting table than
l have been.
Not yet, little book, can l give
you to the world. Some day l
may feel otherwise, but just now
/ am too uncertain as to the out
come of my life and I want to tell
everyone of my struggles toward
normal development.
| want to be a real woman, lit
tie book, one Of whom, when my
life is over, will be said that the
world is better because l lived.
Because Of this / am much afraid
that the real honesty with which
II have confessed to you would be
misunderstood.
Sometimes, perhaps, I have ap-
peared egotistical in your pages,
sometimes l have been morbid,
sometimes I have been mistaken
In my judgments. Oh, l know,
little book, that Margie Waverly
is no superwoman. There is only
one thing She is, and that is hon
est with herself, and she is also
perfectly honest with you.
And because so many men and
women are prone to lie to them
selves / am very much afraid
that those people would not be
able to appreciate the honesty
that dares at times to be egotis-
tical and at times dares to run
counter to the conventions.
All this I had to get out of my
System because when I asked Pat

We of course, don't like the way things are going

We, of course, are discouraged to see boshevik

Politics Won't Go

If there has been unnecessary delay, or official
delinquency or graft, or favoritism, or anything

up
But one thing the folks back home won't stand

that goes for all parties.
When our boys get over there, they some
