It's Work That Counts

1t isn't that job you intended to do
Nor the labor you've just begun,
That puts you right on the ledger
sheet,
It's the work you have actually
done.
Your debit on things you shirk;
you do,
Your debt on things you shirk;
The man who totals the biggest plus,
Is the man who completes his
work.
Good intentions do not pay bills,
It's easy enough to plan;
To wish is the play Of an office boy,
To do is the work of a MAN.

team confidently states 1t Will WIN
the coveted cup. The members and
supporters left this morning shortly

These two are Manassas and Lees

outstanding stars of other years IN
Larson and Hooff Things indeed
look bright for Alexandria's team
although it is far weaker than 1t was
last year.
Bob Midkiff who had seemingly
retired as undefeated half-miler OF
the Eighth District, at the last min

stars that have come into their own

MUST SHOW HOW FUNDS ARE
SPENT IN CAMPAIGNS

Sweeping regulations for public
ity of campaign contributions are
provided for in a bill introduced by
Chairman Andrews, of the House
Committee on Election of President,
Vice-President, and members of Con-
gresS.
While the bill makes no attempt
to regulate primary expenditures in
view of the decision of the Supreme
Court in the Newberry case that
such regulation came within the
province of the States, it would
limit expenditures by candidates for
the Senate to $4,000 and candi-
dates for the House to $4,000, and
Stipulate that no candidate shall
promise any man political job in
exchange for his support.
The name of every person con-
tributing 500 or more would be
published.
The bill provides that reports
shall be made by the national com
mittees on all political parties, con-
gressional campaign committees, as
sociations or organizations of every
nature, kind and description for
whatever purpose created, organized
or incorporated, or any subsidiary
thereof, which shall in two or more
States influence the result or at
tempt to influence the result OF an
election at which representatives in
Congress are to be elected"

HORSE RACING Is AN ANCIENT
SPORT


How come that $4,000 people,
each Drawing the barbed elbows of
the other 1899, gather on the
perspiring lawn at Latonia while a
band of sleek skinned, fre-orbed
thoroughbreds rushed madly around
racing course? How come that
thousands of men and women in
East and West and North and
South wait anxiously for the first
tidings of that little mile and a quar-
ter jaunt across the river from Gin
cinnati? How come that men yell
and women scream? How come that
fortunes disappear and instantly
arise elsewhere? How come that
|newsboys bawl and the headlines
shrek? How come?
There is that in the thoroughbred
that makes men do these things.
His is a power born of the primitive
instincts of our forefathers and old
as history itself. Apropos the Lato-
mia Special and the thoroughbred,
says the Horse Association of Amer
lea:
Racing began thousands of years
before Christ among Arabians, to
determine the f1eetest, strongest and
most enduring horses, the lives of
their owners often depending there
on. Race winners were used thous-
andS of years ago as SireS and this
steadily improved Arabian horses.
| Later, the best Arab, Turk and Barb
stations were taken to England and
crossed on the fleetest native run
ming mares. History shows that the
best of progeny was developed and
selected by racing. The standard of
admission to the Thoroughbred Stud
book was originally based solely on
performance on the turf. Only those
having a high standard of speed
strength and endurance were eligi-
BILE to record.
Thoroughbred blood resulted
from continual racing and selection
each generation showing slight i'm
provement over the foregoing. Three
hundred years of constant, selective
breeding of mares to the fleetest
most enduring sires, gave the thor
oughbred breed extreme speed, cour-
age, endurance and gameness, with
the result that the breed has been
used as fountain blood for other
breeds, namely, American standard
bred trotter and American saddle
horse.
| Thoroughbred blood is infused in
some measure into Hackney and
Morgan horses. Thoroughbred is
now the most used of any hot blood
ed breed for the improvement OF
saddle, cavalry, hunting and polo
| horses.
down through the ages the race
course has been a fiery crucible, il
which horses possessing the desired
qualities in the greatest measure are
separated from those less endowed
Successive races are required tt
demonstrate the staying quality anC
endurance of horses.
There are two things in the world
which will arrest the attention of al
men-beautiful women and beauti
full horses. Ali the world over mel
watched with interest Saturday
race because hey have inhe-itat
from their forcfathers this instinc
to admire the endurance, gamcnes
and extraordinary speed OF iIt
horses
