Hilda Brewer came down town one
evening driving the family automobile.

she, like others, strolled about taking

ly strains Of music. When she saw
Elsie Dover at little distance she

even himself. Her first question was
regarding him. He had been in the
city for a month and Hilda was eager
to learn how he was getting along.

ROWING SPORT REJUVENATED
Now Enjoying New and Prosperous
Popularity Among Amateurs
CIeanest of Sports.

About 40 years ago rowing was In
its heyday in this country. Along in
the early eighties there were New Han
lon, Jake Gaudaur. Teemer, Hosmer,
Long Bob Fulton, Charley Courtney,
Jim Ten Eyck and the famous Ward
brothers from Newburg. Funny how
fashions have changed in sport. Who
of the present decade can recall a pro-
fessional rowing race? Yet father and
mother were keenly interested in the
game in the bygone.
Rowing is one of the finest exercises
in the realm of sports, and, as far as
amateurs are concerned, one of the
cleanest.
There is no gate" in rowing, and 1t
is one of the few sports in the whole
category where those who promote

PREPARE TIRES FOR
LONG, HARD WINTER
Car Owners Should Take Few
Necessary Precautions.
Carefully Wash on Outside to Remove
All Harmful Substances, Wrap in
Paper or Carpet and Store
In Dry Place.

The skin is thick on the belly Of the
Goldfish and the fur Is heavy on the
back of the squirrel, SO prepare for a
long, hard winter.
Many motorists will soon put their
cars in the barn for the winter and
think no more Of motor riding until
about the ides Of March.
Many automobile tires will go into
storage with thousands of miles Of
wear left in them, and car owners
should take the few precautions nee
essary to keep them from damage
while they are not in use.
Here are some recommendations
made by the service department of a
large tire company to the motorist who
wants to put his tires away and find
them in good shape next spring:
1. Wash tires carefully ON outside
to remove Oil and other harmful sub
stances.
2. Remove tires from wheels and
wrap, in paper or old carpet.

AS he turned into another street an
auto circled past her. Two men were
In 1t. They halted as they neared
Fitch, sprung out, there was a scuf-
fe. They seemed to knock him sense
less, picked him up, flung him into
their auto and started up again.
All Of a sudden then Hilda Brewer
felt herself to be the center Of vast
adventure. She did not try to an
alyze its merits. Her pulses beating
tumultously, she had but one idea
to keep her captive lover in sight until
she could secure aid or rescue. Now,
courageous to face any peril for his
dear sake, she knew that she loved
him.
It was apparent as the two men left
the town behind that they noticed the
pursuit. At all events they speeded
up terrif1cally as they struck the open
road. Hilda all in dutter could only
think Of keeping them in view. AS
they turned a sharp curve they were
momentarily lost to view. She shud-
dered and shrank down as a crash
echoed out. Circling the curve she
brought the machine to halt.
The other machine lay overturned

Flung free from it, Fitch revived from
his first assault and was staggering
wildly about. Vaguely and then won
deringly he recognized Hilda.
"Get to the nearest telephone, sum-
mon the police at Easton," he qua
vered, and sank to the ground from
sheer shock and weakness.
What a story he had to tell when
back to normal In day Or two. The
real popcorn man had been the leader
Of a gang Of burglars who were In
Testing the district, giving them slips"
as to prospective places to loot, COM
municating with them through notes
In the popcorn bags and posing and
acting up to the average peddler.
Fitch had captured him and had as
gumed his disguise, but had been sus-
pected and captured. In the bag he
had given to Hilda was sufficient evil
dence to bring the gang to justice and
recover most of their ill-gotten gain.
Through courage Hilda had saved
Fitch. Love alone had inspired her
daring. 1t was so plain to him that
there was a proposal forthwith.

EDUCATION AND LIFE.

A man recently paid visit to col
lege and talked with several of the
professors, was impressed by the idea
that they and their students seemed
absorbed in a range of thought re-
mote from the conditions ofeveryday
life. Out in the world the people are
struggling with problems Of produc-
ton and business and polltice and
labor and industry. It is all intensely
practical and rather materialistio.
Back in the colleges much of the
thought is going into literature and
the dead languages and classic studies
and philosophy.
It would be a mistake. however, to
say that the colleges are not in touch
with ordinary life. They are devot
ing a great deal of time to teaching
the duties of citizenship. They have
no greater duty than this. If these
young people are not being turned out
with strong sense of civic duty and
fitted to lead their countrvmen in the
ways of progress, then their educa-
ton is wasted.
Also economics should be thorough
Nv studied. There must be strong
leadership on the part of educated
people against quack remedies and
fake panaces. Every student also
should be required to study history
thoroughly. A knowledge of the de-
yelopment of the human race, OF the
ideas that this country stands for, OF
the evolution of other nations, is one
of the most vital preparations for
citizenship.
One should never speak contemp-
tuously of literature. The well ed,
ucated person should have acquainted
with the masters of thought of all
ages. It is they who have enunciated

THE DECLINE OF THE CLOWN.

THE DECLINE OF THE CLOWN.
Circus men are deploring the scar
city of good clowns. At convention
Of the Outdoor Showmen's Leagues,
the plant was made that clowns are
well paid, and thoroughly trained, yet
the majority of them don't seme tt
be as funny as they used to be.
The old time clown was the salt and
spice that gave the show its flavor.
The modern generation is very sophis-
ticated, and even keener in its demand
fors the whimsical. A show made up
merely of acrobatic feats and animal
cages finds hard going now.
The old time clown was funny with
out having to make an awful effort
about it. He did not have any very
novel stunts, but he was naturally a
comedian. And of course, audinces
were less critical then. Ancient Jokes
passed muster for very many years.
AS the public grew captious it con-
stantly demanded new stunts, and
MANY very original ones were pulled
off. Such was the idea of letting the
clowns mingle with the crowd and
pose as rustics or tramps who had
come to see the show. One of the
funniest stunts ever pulled off was
rigging clown up as photographer,
who would pose sentimental couples
in the tent, and leave them standing
there until they found they were be-
ing made game OF.
The man who has the gift Of whim-
steal talk and gesture finds the world
at his feet today. He may earn more
than the President of the United
States. The public will pay higher
for his little eccentricities than it will
give to commanding ability in states
manship, literature or art.
So the circus in it's search for fun
nv men finds more competitors than
| it used to. It is one grade more ex-
hausting, with it's early morning
starts, than that of the travelling &C
| tor. The novice makers pa va price

Had her father somehow got into trouble trying to save Sam?

 I'll take that from you. my dear, because you look so blamed pretty When you're mad; but I wouldn't take II from him-from your father, who is hiding out in the hills somewhere" Anger uncurbed welled from her in an inarticulate cry. He had come | close to her. and was standing beside the stirrup, one bold hand upon the rein. Her quirt went swiftly up and down, cut like thin bar of red-hot iron across his uplifted face. He stumbled back, half blind with the pain. Before he could realize what had happened the spur on her little boot touched the side of the pony and 1t was off with bound. She was gal loping wildly down the trail toward home.
 He looked after her, fingers earess ing the welt that burned his cheek.
 You'll pay for that, Kate CuIlison, he said aloud to himself.
