hibition. And instead of going to the parlor,
she sat down by the kitchen window. She
was in her chally gown, with her cameo pin
and her string of coral.
Laughter from the parlor mingled with the
laughter of Di and Jenny upstairs. Lulu was
now rather shy of Di. A night or two be-
fore, coming home with extra" cream, she
had gone round to the side door and had come
full upon Di and Bobby seated on the steps.
And Di was saying:
"Well, if marry you you've simply got to
be great man. 1 could never marry just any
body. I'd smother
Lulu had heard, stricken She passed them
by, responding only family to their greeting.
Di was far less taken aback than Lulu.
Later Di had said to Lulu: II s'pose you
heard what were saying"
Lulu, much shaken, had withdrawn from
the whole matter by fat "no" Because"
she said 10 herself, II couldn't have heard
right"
But since then she had looked at 2i as if
Di we're some one else. Had not Lulu taught
her to make buttonholes and to hem--oh, no!
Lulu could not have heard properly.
"Everybody's got somebody to be nice to
them,' she thought now, sitting by the kitchen
window, adult yet Cinderella.
She thought that some one would come for
her. Her mother or even Ina. Perhaps thew
would send Monona. She waited at first
hopefully, then resentfully. The gray rain

Next to the Long Island Railroad, which
transports most of the patrons of the track
who do not use automobiles, the institution
that derives the greatest financial benefit
from the presence of the three great race
courses is Mary Immaculate Hospital. AL
though there is another hospital in Jamaica,
Mary Immaculate, by a sort of unwritten
law, is recognized as the official racetrack
hospital and to it are taken the jockeys when
they are sick injured and the victims Of
any accidents that may occur in connection
with the sport The hospital authorities can

publication, Mary Immaculate Hospital pur-

centering about Jamaica. During hospital
building fund drive two years ago the
days racing to the cause and permitted
solicitors to go through the grandstand every
day during the money-raising campaign to OBJ

The proximity of the tracks keeps racing
interest keen in Jamaica throughout the year,
even when the horses running at distant
points, a result of which the police are
kept eternally upon the trail of the gambling
fraternity. dope sheets,' racing charts
and newspapers with racing flavor have an
immense sale in Jamaica, and, particularly
when the races are in progress at one Of the
local tracks, everybody "picks the winners"
The dyed-in-the-wool sports who have or take

EW YORK CITY has the distinction
of excelling in so many ways that it
should surprise none of its citizens

does Saratoga, for instance. Saratoga is far
enough removed from larger city SO that
most OF the followers Of the horses have to
remain there while the meet is in progress.
But the population Of Jamaica is not materi-
ally increased during the racing season, for
most Of it's patrons spend their nights in Man
haitian. There is some increase in the board
ing house and hotel patronage, but this does
not amount to as much as it would were
Jamaica an isolated community. The taxi
cab drivers reap harvest, the restaurants do
a rushing business, but otherwise things 20 on
about as usual. 1t was not racing which put
Jamaica on the map.
Some of the merchants Of Jamaica have
cause, however, to hail each racing season with
delight. Although 95 per cent of the specta-
tors travel to and from Manhattan daily, most
of the trainers, jockeys and others employed
at the track find it more convenient to live
close to the scene OF their work, and they are
all GOOD spenoers. The restaurants cater to
them with great profit, for they believe in liv-
ing we'll, and only the choicest food interests
them. The clotl.sers, mems furnishers and
ha6e-Sashers find business booming, for the
visiting horsemen are as fond of good clothes
as they are of good food When jockey
strolls into haberdashery the clerks race to
see who shall wait on him, for the order will
probably include half dozen silk shirts, two
or three dozen pairs Of silk socks, expensive
neckties or the finest handkerchiefs. How
much money is spent in Jamaica annually by
visiting horsemen would be difficult of compu-

AS a matte Of information of a gen
eral and official nature, there is being
sent out to each county farm agent
in the state copies of the lucid and
instructive address delivered at jack
son by j. w. Coverdale, general sec
rotary Of the American Farm Bureau
Fedeation, Chicago. This address en-
bodies the essence and keynote of the
principles upon which the farm bureau
is founded and will be distributed by
the county agents in their respective
counties. 1t covers every possible con-
dition which might confront farm bu-
reau membership, in any county and
in any state in the union. Standing
out, clear and distinct is the central
slogan or watchword Together We
Winw which as Mr.. Coverdale declar-
ed should be the cooperative cam
paign cry of the American farmer to-
day.
Farm bureau organization activity is
defined in concrete terms, whether af-
fecting county, state or national or
ganization, as a service movement.
Secretary Coverdale defines it as
follows:
"The object Of the farm bureau shall
be to create countrywide organiza-
ton to advance and improve the agri-
culture of. the county, to cooperate
with the State College of Agriculture
and the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture in the employment of coun-
ty agent or agents; to develop def
mite program of work that will bring
to the county better economic, So
cial and educational condition so as to
make farming more profitable and
country life more attractive"

eyes filled with tears, she began to

floor Peggy had tainted.
Here she was found few minutes
later by Mrs. Brown, the minister's
wife, who had brought Peggy some
flowers Tenderly she placed Peggy
on the bed and sent for DR.. Bruce,
the family physician. Meanwhile she
worked first aid to restore the child
to consciousness. Dr.. Bruce soon ar
rived and gave Peggy the necessary
attention.
Mrs, Brown handed Dr.. Bruce the
mote left by Peggy's father, and
awaited his reply.

After talking while, they sent for
Mr.. Hoyt, DR.. Bruce's attorney. He

where he, in a fatherly manner, tried
to console Peggy. The three then
repaired to the parlor for lengthy
conference concerning Peggy's future.

they repaired to the library.
By this time Peggy had recuperated
sufficiently to join them, and related

Suddenly there came a quick knock
