HIDES FROM EYES
Carpenter Won't Let Public
See Him Train.
Even Newspaper Men Barred
Except at Stated Periods.
BY HENRY L. FARRELL.

Manhasset. n Y, May 1S.-The
camp of Georges Carpenter will look
like an ammunition factory during the
war when the Frenehman goes TO
work.
The Andrews farm, French head
quarters, within a stones throw OF the
magnificent country home of Harry
Payne Whitney, is barricaded with
barbed wire. A high board fence is
built around the COW pasture where
the ring has been pitched. The tlnal
touch of the military will be furnished
by two soldats," as Descamps called
them, who will pound a beat around
the place.
Strange eyes that zee the French
man compounding r 5 dynamite FOR
Jack Dempsey will have to resort TO
forgery, strategy and wartime cum
ming.
Only n pass will get anyone not well
known to the Frenchman past the
guards Twice a week the newspaper
men will be notified that they can
come out and look the Frenchmah
over and ask him few questions NO
one will be allowed to see Georges at
work.
Descamps said today that Carpen-
tier would not do any heavy work 1oI
at least two weeks. The barn WhsIe
an indoor ring has been erected ioI
had weather. is filled with evidence
to show the Frenchman at his WORK
that he is good. Covering the entlre
side of one end of the barn is huge
billboard picture in colors of Joe
Beckett PROSTATE on the floor OF the
London ring and Carpenter standlng
over him. At the other end OF the
barn is a poster of similar size deplcI-
INC +ba victorious Georges being car
ried from the ring on the shoulders
of his admirers.
In the few bare spots of the walls
are cartoons and pictures OF the
French hero in various poses anu a.
strin Of new carpet neatly tackled to
Inc floor in front of mirror where
Georges can see himself when ne Is
doing calisthenics.

sist that reductions should not be

value of farm products Taxes have
not only not declined but have actual.

One should therefore be slow to crit

MANY TEACHERS
ARE AT PEABODY
TWO THOUSAND FROM OVER THE
SOUTH LEARNING VALUE OF
COMMUNITY RECREATION.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug 17.-Over
Gwo thousand teachers from all parts
Of the South are learning the value OF
community recreation this summer at
The summer quarter of Peabody Teach
ars College, and will go back to their
respective communities this fall to ap-
ply the principles and practices which
they are now receiving as part of
the instruction to better qualify them
to hold positions as teachers and lead
ers in community life.
Miss Genevieve Collins, who gives
this course at Peabody, has some orig.
NAL ideas in community recreation. By
their application, a community spirit
IS developed that will not only benefit
the people who live there but will also
work for harmony in their relations
with the school. .suuf
Another departure in the instruction
OF school teachers at Peabody Is the
girls track team, made up of young
women attending the college. All
branches of track athletics, including
the dashes, weights events, hurdles
and jumps, are included in the events.
The Peabody team has met track
teams representing other young wom-
ems schools and has given a splendid
account of itself. These teachers are
expected to take their track exper-
fence with them to their own schools
and to instill the love of outdoor
sports and athletics in the girls and
young women under their tutelage. In
the course of few years, girls track
teams like girls basketball teams,
will be as numerous in the schools of
the South as are the boys teams, it is
believed.

"DRoPPlNG GOV. ROBERTS,"

The always interesting McMinnville
Standard speaks of dropping Gov.
Roberts" as the cause of the demo-
cratic defeat in Tennessee last year.
The Herald is unable to understand
the Standards reasoning, although it
is unusually clear and direct. Gov.
Roberts was not dropped" by the
democratic party. On the contrary he
was accorded denomination in the
primary and his friends were in abso-
ute control of the party machinery.
He dictated the platform upon which
he made the race for reelection. Had
the party refused him an endorsement
and then been led to defeat there
would be something in the Standards
argument that the loss of the state
was due to "a reputation of the gov.
ernor. But exactly the contrary was
the case. Gov. Roberts had his oppor-
tuhity to lead the hosts to victory
and lost it. That is all there is to the
situation. 1t might be that any dem
ocratic candidate for governor last
year would have been beaten, but the
majority against him would not have
been so great as that recorded against
Roberts.
But 1t will hardly profit the party to
discuss Robertssfor it is doubtful if
he even thinks that he is a possibility
1t is not going to be any easy task
with the record made by the last dem
ocratic legislature. 1t is going to re.
quire leader of capacity, courage,
honesty and proved devotion to duty
to wrest the state administration from
the control of the republicans, espec-
tally if Governor Taylor should be re-
nominated
