Community Owned PAGERS
Coming Into Turf Courts
Race at Lewiston, Me-, Results
in Dispute.

John r. Braden, Roy Grattan and
Jackson Grattan. the rival community
owned PAGERS OF Aroostooi county.
Maine, got themselves into the turf
courts in their recent race at Lewiston.
A representative of each community
was in the judges stand to see fair play,
and when they set Roy Grattan back for
an alleged foul in the second heat, paced
in s:o6A, his driver protested the deci-
sion on the ground that the Judge from
Presque Isle was the manager OF John
r. Braden and that the Houlton Judge
was part owner OF Jackson Grattan.
The case will come before the Board OF
Review of the National Trotting Associa-
ton at its meeting in New York on De-
cember S.
Diehards OF the trotting turf are now
comparing Lou Dillon with Media,

the windshield champion of nearly twenty
years ago derived no assistance from the
runner In front when she trotted in
I :58h at Memphis In 1903. The plain,
unvarnished fact Is that Lou Dillon
started against time repeatedly without
this artificial aid and never beat 2:o1.

language than William Jennie
Bryan ever thought Of in his life.
When you consider it takes one
Chinaman a half an hour to tell
another Chinaman not to put any
starch on the cuffs of a shirt you
will get an idea how complicated
anything Chinese can be. The
trouble about this war is that the
Chinese have not had time to tell
each, other what they are fighting
about. Often they start out and
tell each other what a war is
about before they start the war,
the war does not get started for
several years, so there is gener-
ally some doubt what the hostili-
ties are expected to accomplish.
"There are no cuss words in
the Chinese language. All is
sweetness and light. When one
Chinaman asks another for
match, he mentions all of the
other ones ancestors and then
mentions all his own back to Con-
fucius. Then he mentions all the
flowers in the floral kingdom and
all the good fairies and all the
great men of China, and when
he finally gets down to asking for
the match it is time to go home
and go to bed"
81 don't see how they can find
so much to say without swear
ing," says Elias Q. Higginbotham.
at is different in this country"
THAT is because the Chinese
have not reached our advanced
civilization" says Quincy. "They
are still very polite people and
sensitive. When they have a war
they are naturally backward
about letting the world into the
secret of what they are fighting
about. They think it is family
affair and none of the worlds
business"
"They must be cracked" says
Elias Q. Higginbotham, "to think
they can pull off a war without
every country on earth getting
The Washington times., 1922-08-06

into it. It amt being done. A
war now is public property. You
got as much chance to pull off a
private war nowadays as you
have Of making the subway ex-
elusive. But, If you are SO full
Of information about this present
trouble in China, I would admire
to have you haul off and unload"
"As say BEFORE" says
Quincy, "it is a long story about
this trouble in China. 1t begins
away back about eight thousand
years before the downtown post
Office or the Egyptian Pyramids
are built. It is the same old
scrap, but 1t always shows up in
a different set Of scenery. The
trouble just now is this, in a few
words.
"You see for a great many
years everybody has been taking
a bite out of China and settling
all their difficulties that way.
"If the King Of Beloochistan
gets into a war with the Sultan
of Sulu, they fight awhile and
they they find out that fighting
don't do any good, they get to-
gether and the King of Beloochis-
tan says to the Sultan of Sulu:
I'll tell you what we'll do. I'll
take the province Of Chow Mein
in China and you take the prov
ince Of Fo Yung and We'll call
it square and call off the war;
The Sultan Of Sulu looks it>up on
the map and agrees and the war
is over.
"If Sweden has a scrap with
Brazil, they each take a prov
ince in China and kiss and make

up. Even in the last great war,
all the powers begin grabbing
chunks of China before they pay
any attention to the people they
are fighting with. In every war
the first thing to do is to bite of
a piece Of China and then start
the fighting on the home grounds.
"Now this has been going on
for a great many years and,
while China was once a very large
country and had borders on all
sides, 1t has been gradually
whitfield down to Rhode Island
proportions and the Chinks have
been crowded in together until
there IL hardly room to rub
clothes on a washboard.
"When they get jammed in so
tight there is hardly standing
room, the Chinese make up their
mind that, instead Of having
strangers take China away from
them, they will take it away from
each other, and so they get up
this way between the north and
south of China and are now en-
gagged in taking their country
away from each other. But the
people are so crowded in China
now that there is hardly room
to hold the war and some inno-
cent Cinnamon who are not in
terested in this war at all are
continually being shot up. Now
that, in few words, is the cause
of the present war in China"
., "That is very clear and logi-
CAL" says Elias @. Higginbotham,
"but do not believe a damn
word you say"
"Well, my guess is as good as

as much of mystery to me as a

Quincy. $50 is the fourth dimen-

wardness of the Chinese situation
any more than you grasp a lot
of other things, including Prohi-
bition. Your mind does not lend
itself to conviction on some sub
jects like that"
"If you can give me a brief

Elias Q. Higginbotham, 'T will

"The other day I read q four
column article about the pres
ent fuss in China written by q
man who has lived there twenty
years and it was not as clear or
as reasonable as the one I have
just given you, made up out Of
my head. That guy has been right
in the middle of II for twenty
years and what he wrote about
the present war sounded like a
recipe for chicken chow mein."
"Who Is this General Wu?"
asks Elias @. Higginbotham.
"It wouldn't do no good if I
told you," says Quincy. 'Tf I
gave you his whole history it
wouldn't be any palmer than a
laundry ticket"
"He seems to be quite a bird,
at that" says Elias Q. Higgin-
botham, "and I hope he wins out
in this Chinese scrap"
"But he WON'T. says Quincy.
"If he don't, who will?"
Nobody" says Quincy.
That's the way it is with a Chi
nese war. "By the time they
get the returns Of one war
figgered out, there Is another one
started.".

TWO FATHERS

EXCHANGE IS MADE AFTER
NURSE ADMITS MISTAKE IN
GIVING OUT BABES.

NEWARK, n. 1.-Two fathers
snapped babies in the maternity ward
at city hospital Friday and the dove
of peace Auttered into two homes
where the stork had been recent Wis
itor.
Mrs. Bessie Verify and Mrs. Sarah
Lapore were patients at the hospital
at the same time. When Mrs Verify
was discharged she was given baby
boy, although she protested that hers
had been girl.
Mrs. Lapore, discharged at the same
time, took home with her newly
born baby girl.
"Hows that" querried the proud
father when he saw the infant. They
told me it was boy"
So he bundled up the babe, took it
back to the hospital and there found
Papa Verify with similar bundle
waiting for him. The nurse who at
tended the two women consulted her
records, admitted that she had made
a mistake and redistributed the babies
to the proud fathers-and collapsed.
