@. What is libido? F. ID. w.
A. Libido is the term used by
Freud and other psychoanalysts to
describe the impelling force of our

libido. Most forms of scientific.

growers can only buy half as many
shoes now as in 1913. One result is
that employees of shoe factories Will
be thrown out of jobs. Then they
can't buy any shoes either.
Really, the farmer, II at all intel
ligent, is in an enviable position. He

mer who raises nothing but n

man who raises only tobacco, or cot
ton for example. The farmer who
produces hogs and chickens, and
keeps dairy cattle and raises pota-
Toes and beans and other vegetables,
need go to market for very little OF
his food. He is vastly better off than
that ex-shoe-factory employee. for
example.
Business will never pick up until
the farmer once more is able to buy
a pair OF shoes with a bushel of po-
tatoes. That can be accomplished
either by giving the farmer more
or the shoe maker less. The diagno-
sis is easy, but the only remedy
seems to be a slow process of read

on Monday night, had been postponed
because Of a counter boxing attraction

The bout marks a strenuous attempt
on the part of Herman to win back

Handicap Purse
Blazes, Given First by Price
Makers, Has No Chance;
Long Shot Leads i'm Fifth

j. E. Widener's erratic old campa igner
Naturalist was in pleasant mood
yesterday and took down the purse in
the Mount Vernon Handicap, the fea-
ture OF the card at Empire City. j. S.
Cosden's Blazes, the favorite for the
event, was second, with the added
starter, Copper Demon, third. st. Al
len, the only other starter, was poor
fourth.
Basing their calculations on the fact
that the track was deep and holding
which it was not, the price makers in
stalled Blazes as first choice. There
were few takers, most of the crowd
supporting Naturalist.
Naturalist broke with his company
and forged to the front in the run to
the first turn, with Blazes second and
St. Allen third. There was no change
in the positions going down the back
stretch, only that Copper Demon kept
falling back.
Rounding the far turn, Turner took
a nice hold on Naturalist and let him
run at his own pace. Rice tried to
bring up Blazes, but the Cosden colt
could not cut down the leaders adj
vantage. 1t was this way right to the
wire, Naturalist winning we'll in hand
by short length from Blazes. Copper
Demon finally got to running after
turning for home and took third money,
three lengths behind Blazes.
Norwich Proves a Surprise

In meeting Mustard Seed it was fig
ured that Norwich was opposing colt
that would offer a stiff argument to
him, but when it came to racing it was
Norwich first and the rest nowhere.
Sande got the colt off flying and prac-
tlcally raced Mustard Seed off his feet in
the first quarter. Miller tried his best
to overtake the flying leader, but the
further they went the more Norwich
drew away. He passed under the wire
pulled up, three lengths before Mus
tard Seed. She was third.

made her company look cheap in the
opening race, d five furlong dash for

turn, and romped to the finish
Arrowhead an Easy Winner
Arrowhead was another easy winner
in the second. He broke in front and
never let the result in doubt, winning
eff by himself, eight lengths in front
of Ting a-ling. The latter beat Jago
four lengths for the place.
Earl Sande gave Top Sergeant one
OF his miilion-dollar rides in the third
and brought the gclding home the
easiest kind OF winner. Sande laid
back of Curfew until they neared the
head of the stretch. Then he gave Top
Sergeant his head and shot to the front
tic win breezing by four lengths. Cur
few got the place by five lengths from
Farader.
kcIiher, victor in the fifth event,
was the longest priced winner of the
day. He beat one of the favorites,
Scotch Verdict, by five lengths. The
latter lasted long enough to take the
place from Queen Blond.

Brady was i'll.
Playing, to-day with Johnny Ander-
son Brady simply burned up the
all of the fearlcssness and spectacular
effectiveness that characterized him
when he was in prime twenty years
ago. On no green did he take more
than two puts, and on several he
barely missed getting down on his
first attempt.
Generally he left himself little to
do on the green's. Take the first
four holes where he got fours on
each of them. He was on in two on
all four, within seven feet of the pin
and just missed getting threes instead
of tours. At the long fifth Mike cot
