Boston horsemen. headed by Charles W. Leonard. are raising fund of s100,000 to improve the Readville trotting track, and finance the Grand Circuit meeting there. Their project embraces horse show to come just before the one at Newport and a fair and live stock show which may be big thing if the scheme as at present proposed is carried out. The state of Massachusetts owns about thirty acres of land adjoining the track. and a movement is on foot to have this improved and beautif1ed for the fair grounds, with the two pieces of prop erty thrown together. If bill now pending in the legislature becomes a law the state may give substantial aid in promoting the fair.

One of the strong points of this compact little circuit is that the tracks are so close together. Once the horses get to McAfee they can go in motor vans or even by road from one meeting to another and so fill their racing engagements regardless of any shortage of cars or congestion of freight traffic on the railroads. Trans portation is likely to be the big prob lem for the campaigning stables this year, and horsemen are sure to make their entries in such way as to |avoid the railroads as much as possi- ble.

POWER OF JOY RULES WORLD
Pain, Declares Woman Lecturer,
Should Never Be Resorted to In
Correcting UnruIy Children.

A woman is Iecturing In the East
on "The Influence of JOY" 1t is also
an attack on the influence Of pain,
which parents so much resort to In
the management of children. She de-
clares, according to the Ohio State
Journal, that pain should never be re-
sorted to to make children good, and,
hence, she advises that all Spankings
and whippings should be eliminated.
There is nothing in pain to recon-
struct a child. Joy is the only medium
that should be used. Make a child
happy, instead of sad, is the gospel
Of child training. The power that
lived, moved and ruled the world, she
said, was the power of joy; and this
was the influence the parent should
use in training the child. This is not
the way of parents. The rule is to
whip the child to make him good. 1t
cannot result that way. A kind word
and a gentle association are far more
powerful than a rod or any other
method for producing sorrow or pain
The other day we heard mother
shout to q little boy: "Tll skin you
alive" That is enough to make
worse boy out Of bad one.
The "mild power wins" is an old
adage and every parent should take
Et TO heart.

HOGAN WYATT
UNDER ARREST

Hogan Wyatt, the young man who
some weeks ago wrote Sheriff LaFon
a very caustic letter, in which he no
tilted the sheriff not to mail him a
QUESTIONABLE, and who refused to
fill it out when mailed to him, was
arrested by Deputy U. S. Marshal
King and Sheriff LaFon Thursday
morning, the officers reaching Dres-
den with Wyatt about noon, too late
for the Enterprise to give further
particulars. Wyatt is alleged to
have done considerable prO-German
talk in his neighborhood. He stated
in his letter to the sheriff he did not
intend serving in the army, prefering
to go to the federal penitentiary, just
where he will go, and where he may
change his mind.

TRUCKS DISPLACE
DRAFT HORSES.

There has been a tendency for
many years to "Lo the poor Indian"
but from recent happenings this
might easily be paraphrased to "Lo
the poor horse"
Draught animals have, Of course,
been more or less displaced by the
motor truck. 1t has remained for a
Rhode Island horseman, however, to
adapt the truck to his racing stable
needs.
B. F. Tefft, jr., of Arctic, R. l.,
actually uses a Maxwell One-ton
truck to transport his racing horses
and stable accoutrements from track
to track. The first endeavor to over
come the delay of railway shipment
was made by Tefft when he trans
ported in one load two horses, three
men, two sulkies, two trunks, and
equipment necessary for following
a racing circuit.
Leaving Kingston on Sept. II, the
sturdy Maxwell was driven to Ux-
bridge, Mass, making the 81 miles
in four hours with ease. The next
move was to Barre, 63-mile trip, in
four and half hours. Another
transport was to Greenfield in three
hours for the 45 miles.

Sour Milk hv Violet Raya.

1t has always been commonly be-
lieved that milk curdles owing to the
change Of temperature and that by
using ice this difficulty would be over

Soni In the Electrical Experimental.
but this precautiOn does not take away
the primal cause. While germs in
milk remain latent under the u. qvor-
able environment of perhaps zero de-
gree, they develop Immediately upon
being brought in contact with light
and more productive environment.
The moment ultra vlolet rays come
in contact with the infinttesimal life
development begins, and while 1t is
true that some microbes ere destroyed
by the ultra violet rays, it has been
found that the inferior organisms gen.

SKETCH OF THE
LATEDUKE BOWERS
(By Jake MOrtOn)

Before such a community and on
such an occasion, make an effort
to speak of this man with fear and
trembling. Do not mistake my
meaning. / tremble, indeed, not,
however, through fear of failing to
merit your applause, for what have
to do with that when addressing the
dying and treading on the ashes of
the dead? Not through fear Of fail
ing Justly to portray the character
Of this great man, who is at once the
theme Of our enconium and regret.
His work is finished, and death has
removed him beyond our censure,
and we should fondly hope, through
grace, above our praise. Would to
God my talents were adequate to
this occasion. But such as they are,
devoutly proffer them to unfold
the nature and counteract the influ-
ence Of that barberous custom which,
like resistless torrent, is undermin-
ing the foundations Of civil govern
ment, breaking down the barriers of
social happiness and sweeping away
virtue, talent and domestic felicity
in It's desolating course. This man,
an iiluEriOus character who deserves
our eternal approbation-has been
brought to an untimely end. Where
this man was, in whatever sphere ne
moved, the friendless had a friend,
the fatherless father, and the poor
man, though unable to reward his
kindness, found an advocate.
It was when the rich oppressed the
poor, when the powerful menaced
the defenceless, when the truth was
disregarded or the eternal principles
OF Justice violated--it was on these
occasions that he exerted all his
strength; it was on these occasions
that he sometimes scared so high and
shone with a radience so transcend
emit, II had almost said heavenly as
filled those around him with awe and
gave to him the force and authority
Of prophet. Thither fly, We prison
ers Of hope! that when earth, air, ell
ements shall have passed away, Sc
cure Of existence and felicity, you
may join with saints in glory to per-
petuate the song which fingered on
The fRltering tongue of this man.
Grace, rich grace" God grant us
this hon. then shall the measure
of our be full, and to his name
shall be Ethe glory in Christ.

COOPERATE WITH
YOURLOCAL PAPER

A Georgia editor sends US a suS-
gestion which we are glad to pass
along to our readers. He writes:
Sometimes l hope you may pen
an editorial urging upon farmers
the Importance Of seeing that their
community news appears in their
local paper. Throughout this Sec
ton of Georgia it is difficult to To-
cate correspondent who is willing
to devote time to the preparation
of the community news and there
seems to be an utter indifference
as to the cooperating with the local
paper in this matter. Furthermore
the rural people fail to cooperate
with the local editor in seeing that
reports of church gatherings, educa-
tional meetings, secret order affairs
and other occasions are published"
In every neighborhood there ought
to be some man or waman willing
to undertake this service, if given
the proper cooperation. To have it
dignifies a community. Moreover,
to excite interest in any approaching
meeting and bring out full attend
ance, it is important to have it full
ly advertised in advance. And later,
when it is written up" in the county
papers, it's lessons are brought afresh
to the minds of the readers. A good
local correspondent can also do much
to stimulate agricultural and COM
munity progress. If farmer has
bought a pure-bred COW or bun, or
painted his house, or doubled his
corn yield, or put in waterworks or
tractor or gasoline engine, or won
a prize at the county fair, the fact
should always be noted in the county
paper.
Wherever any forward movement
is proposed in connection with the
local school or church, or farmers
club, it should be boosted and adver-
tised by the local reporter. How
much more significant and impor-
tant, how much more stimulating to
progress and worthy endeavor, is all
such news than a report Of the lat
est social function in town, the dress
es that were worn, the food that was
eaten and the name Of the persons
who presided" at the punch BOWL
