SCIENTIFIC SCORING

assert that pigs or pups were of more

exactly the attitude taken by the par

AUTO RACES SCHEDULED
TO OFFER FRED BLOuDED"
SPORT AT COMING FAIR

American sports are usually of {
vigorous, "red bloOded' variety, an'
nothing appeals to the sons and Gaugll
tiers of Uncle Sam" like Il contest
which calls for daring, skill and speed
and in no game will be found more
perfect embodiment of these assets
than in automobile racing of type
to be featured at the State Fair which
will be held in Louisville the week OF
September S-13.
During the two final days of the
State Fair, racing events will be staged
on the fine oval of the race track in
front of the grand stand and many
of the beSt-knOwn stars of American
and foreign tracks will go after estab-
lished records with savagery which
is certain to result in surprising
changes in the sport-ledgers. During
the 1918 campaign many established
records were wiped out by Sig Rug
dahl, Fred Horey, Jules EllingbOe,
Leon Duray, Ray Lampkin and others
and it is expected that the contests
this year will develop new points and
bring the automobile features into
spectacular promise as one of the most
delightful, stirring and sensational Of
ferings of the entire celebration.
Hughdahl, who was a sensation last
year with his famous Fiat Six, has
practically rebuilt his car and it is said
to be a genuine whirlwind now. AS an
example of its going quality it may be
said that on last Labor Day at Lin
coin, Neb., Hugdahl travelled a mile
In 1.O1.6O and two miles in 202 go, the
old records being beaten several sec
Onds in each instance. Horey has a
new mount about which he is said to
be secretive and in which he promises
to cOnfound his rivals.
Ellingboe remains faithful to his
famous wildcat" and will tool this
wonder at the Fair Duray has jump
ed to the Case racing outfit in place of
George Clark, and Lambkin, who has
sold his "Sun-Ray," will blossom out
with an American instead of foreign
product.

listed by the various premiums quoted
in the 1919 Kentucky State Fair cata-
logs which are now off the press and
under process of distribution in Ken
lucky and throughout various sections
of the country. Keen interest will un-
doubtedly be aroused among the far

REPUBLICANS PLAY POLITICS.

Washington, D. c., Sept. Re
publican leaders in congress are daily
giving demonstrations of their utter
inability to refrain from trying to
play the game G, politics. No mat
ter what issue arises, whether great
or small, whether it involves 'ques-
ton of patriotism, of public policy
or business, no matter what it in
wolves, they manage to inject poll
tics into it somewhere.
One of the latest instances is in
the plan for congress to do honor TO
Gen. John ]. Pershing upon his re-
turn to America sometime in Septem-
Der. They are trying to make it a
Republican affair, and if Democrats
in the House, with whom the idea for
Joint session of the two Houses of
Congress in honor of General Perish
ing originated, hadn't been big
enough and patriotic enough to allow
the Republicans to be the "whole
show" it is really doubtful if they
would ever have been able to get
through resolution providing for
the Joint session which is now assur-
ed.
The Republican Speaker of the
House, Mr., Gillett, very frankly told
the original author of the resolution,
who happened to be Democrat, Mr..
Caldwell, of New York, that he
thought the resolution calling a joint
session ought to be introduced by d
Republican, and unless Mr.. CALDWELL
who urged that it was not a political
matter, and that politics should not
be injected into it, had consented to
the withdrawal of his name from the
resolution and the substitution of a
Republican name therefor, the
chances are the resolution would yet
be where it had remained for six
weeks, "buried" with the Rules Com
mittee, of which Representative
Campbell, Republican, of Kansas, is
chairman. Fortunately, however, be-
cause Mr.. Caldwell is an American
before he is Democrat, and is more
patriot than party man, and be-
cause he consented to have Repub-
lican "father" his resolution, the
Rules Committee has reported out a
special rule for the immediate con-
sideration of the Pershing resolution,
and the plans for doing honor to the
Commander of the American Expe-
dictionary Forces won't be further de-
layed.

Louisiana State Fair began, however,
a most important movement to give
TO the human infant the same scientific
study that had been for years accorded
to the animals and over the country
swept the splendid movement which
inaugurated Babies Health Contests
and Congresses at State and County
Fairs and Expeditions. Kentucky
adopted the innovation in 1913 and in
stituted the first Babies Health Con-
test that year at the Kentucky State
Fair. The idea met with the instant
approval of rural and city mothers and
the contest was one of the most vital
and interesting features of the entire
exhibition. It has grown in interest
from season to season and will again
be one of the big features of the Fair
in September S-13. For information

OF the $4,000 offered In prizes 10

the seventeenth annual Kentucky
State Fair to be held In Louisville the
week of September S-13, $4,000 has
been apportioned to the Beef Cattle

pected that the greatest exhibit of fine
cattle in the history of the Fair will
be entered for competition in this de-
partment.
Ii was the purpose of the State Fair
management, in assigning this gigantic
sum to the cattle division of the Fair
to stimulate the rapidly waning indus

the interest already exhibited proves
the potency OF the move.
