marked to Jimmy Rabbit one fine September day. Are you going to see it?"
 Now Jimmy Rabbit hadn't known anything about the race. And he said he didn't care to attend it. He confessed that he had never seen a horse-trot.
 Then you ought to go to one" Ebenezer told him. You'd enjoy seeing the race tomorrow I'd go myself" he added wistfully but Farmer Green expects to take the bays. At least, old dog Spot told me so."
 As it happened, Jimmy Rabbit had no important business that would prevent his going to the race. So the next day he journeyed down the val ley, starting soon after dawn, because he wanted time to stop for a bite whenever he felt hungry and for a nap after each snack.
 It was early in the afternoon when he reached the race track. He found a big crowd there, all gathered about a little, but tall building, which stood close beside the track. This was the Judges stand. right opposite the place where the races began-and finished. too.
New Britain herald., 1922-09-23

Jimmy Rabbit did not mingle with the crowd. Instead, he stopped some distance away and crouched down behind the fence close beside the track, where he could peep out and watch the races without being seen by anybody.
 After a while some horses appear ed near the judges stand, each driv- en by man who rode in two- wheeled sulky. The races were going to begin.
 Again and again the horses started. Again and again bell rang to call them back. And now and then d harsh-voiced man in the judges stand scolded somebody so loudly that Jim my Rabbit was afraid he was hurt ing some ones feelings.
 That man is trying to stop the races before they begin," Jimmy thought. But at last the horses real ly got away. The nagging man may have forgotten to ring the bell. Jim my wasn't sure about that. Anyhow, he craned his neck and waited for the horses to sweep around the half mile track and come tearing down past the spot where he was hiding.
 They came at last. With a rush the leaders sped past. And far in the rear of them all, who should appear but old Ebenezer himself! Farmer Greens old horse had come to the races after all! And Farmer Green was driving him in the race.
 "Old dog Spot was mistaken" Jim my Rabbit murmured. But it's too bad that Ebenezer came. He's too old. He's going to lose this race"
 Once more the horses thundered around the track. Once more they came humping past Jimmy Rabbit. And now, to his delight, he saw that Ebenezer was leading all the rest.
 We'll that was only one heat. Eb- enezer won it, And he won another like the first. But after that big bay horse beat him twice. And when the trotters came out upon the track for the fifth heat Jimmy Rabbit be- gan to feel very sorry for Ebenezer.
 Hes too old he said to himself once more. They ought to have left him in the pasture"
 Before this heat was half over Jimmy Rabbit was sure that Eben- ezer was hopelessly beaten. He Jagged far behind when the horses passed Jimmy in their first circling of the half mile track. For a moment Jim my turned away. He couldn't bear to see old Ebenezer lose. But soon there was a great shouting from the crowd-a great shouting and waving of hats. And Jimmy just had to take another peep through the fence There came the big bay in front, with old Ebenezer pressing him hard
 Come on. Come on. Come on, Ebenezer!" It was Jimmy Rabbit beg ging Ebenezer to hurry. But of course the. old horse couldn't hear him.
 And then Jimmy Rabbit did a queer thing. He never knew what made him do it. He jumped through the fence and dashed across the track almost under the feet of the big bay.
 That startled, straining fellow saw him, faltered in his stride, swerved. and began to bob oddly up and down. Tn another second old Ebenezer flashed past him. And in five seconds more great roar arose from all the farmers and farmers boys who had come to see the races. Old Ebenezer had won three heats-and the race.

CHAPLIN COMEDY REVIVED

One of Charlie Chaplin's old com odies The Pawnshop," is now being revived II was made years ago. After seeing it, one wonders why Chaplin was not accepted as an artist in the days when he was considered just one among many screen players. Chap lin's face was never more expressive than it was in that comedy The Pawn Shop" is a better comic than Chaplin's last Pay Day"

The next day Jimmy Rabbit went to the pasture, where he found Ebenezer lazily nibbling grass.
 T was pleased when you won your race yesterday" Jimmy Rabbit told him.
 "I won it!' Ebenezer exclaimed. No. No! You won it for me. And 1t was really a shame. If you hadn't startled the bay he would have beaten me But I don't feel as sorry for him as I might. He tried to bite me just before the race began"
 And that was the way Jimmy Rab- bit won a horse race. Copyright 1922 by Metropolitan

HOW JIMMY RABBIT WON
 RACE.

Jimmy Rabbit once won a horse race. And this is how it happened. There was a half-mile track at the lower end of Pleasant Valley. There the farmers for miles around used to come every fall after harvesting. bringing with them horses that they called "trotters.' Farmer Greens old horse Ebenezer was trotter. In his younger days he had won many races. Everybody in Pleasant Val ley knew all about his record" But now Ebenezer was so old that he spent a good deal of his time in the pasture, where Jimmy Rabbit often met him.
 T hear there's going to be a race at the track tomorrow" Ebenezer re-

Marriage A La Mode

Among the natives of Soudan, a wedding Is a festive event. but there is no priest or representative of state, and no wedding ceremony.
 All the friends gather and have a big feast for the bride and groom. each guest bringing as much food and drink as he can.
 The guests remain as long as there is any food, so sometimes the festivi- ties last for a week. When they have returned to their abodes, the wedding is over.
