DUTY OF CIRCUS
 IN WAR TIMES

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Yesterday there came to the little vil- lage near which I live a wagon show This morning as the caravan passed my home on its way to the next stand l noticed the equlppage. I counted Is mules and horses, besides two Shetland ponies. Now, if these teams were able to pull those heavy show wagons, certainly they would be able to pull blows.
 l did not count the men, but I am sure that there were eight or ten able bodied men in the crowd. They may not have been within the draft age, though some of them looked like it. Granting, however, that they are not. is 1t fair for them to run over the country in such a useless occupation when the food sit uation is so serious Think of the corn that thise nine teams and those men could raise, Nt down legitimate businesses to answer the call of their country. One is some where in France and the other is on his way. Is there any justice in running the risk of letting them and their comrades suffer for food while such things as these cumber the earth? I do not know how many of these shows there are in the country but if there is only one that is one too many. Can nothing be done about it? It is useless to discuss the moral status of these shows. That is too evident to need discussion. Sincere ly yours. AMELIA PERRY.

 Funeral services over the remains of MT. Herrick will be conducted from the Avondale Episcopal church this after noon at o'clock, and will be in charge of the Woodmen of the World. Inter ment will follow in Forest Hill ceme- tery. The pallbearers will be L. F. Suydam, Frank Eanes, Charles Pfeister, I. D. Puckett, B. A. Thompson and J. L. Smith.

 Immediately after the race, DePalma, who had been placed fourth protested. He insisted that he had twice lapped Bar ney Oldfield, credited with second place, and that he should have been given second place at least.

Later, the figures of the scorers were checked and DePalma's claims verified in the report made to the Automobile association.
 Fred Wagner, official timer and start CT of the race, said the errors in the first announcement of results were due to mistakes made by the scorers. The po- sition and time of the racers, as revised, were announced today as follows:
 DePalma, first, 58:21; Tom Milton, sec ond, 5S;31; Oldfield, third, 59:20; Eddie Hearne, fourth, 6052; Dan Hickey, fifth, 61:4o; Ira Vail, sixth, 61:41; Omar Toft, seventh, 63:23; Louis Chevrolet, eighth, 63 S

ENFORCE TRAFFIC LAWS

The police department of this city will observe strict enforcement of the traf- fife laws in the future and the co-opera- ton of the public has been asked On account of the limited force it has been impossible in the past to have special men stationed in the downtown section to prevent infractions of the law. But if this step is necessary to stop speeding through the business section of the city the officials may add the extra men.
 A number of complaints have been reg istered recently on account of the speed- ing on the downtown streets, as well as the streets leading to West Lake. Reed CTS and other points on the outskirts of the city. It has also been noticed that a number of automobiles are being driven through the town without due regard to tn. traffic regulations in turning corners and parking.
