ago to make arrangements for taking
charge of the disinfecting and will re-
turn in few days to do the work.
The government does not compe.

upon will be used in cleansing the
buildings.
The work will be done at the ex-

carried on by them under Dr. Quirke's
supervision.
One feature of the fair which will
be of interest will be an exhibit III

All the dairy cows on display at the
fair will be MIXED by this machine.
Two other novel displays in ma
chinery hall will be arranged by the
state waterway commission and the

In the good roads booth there will
be lighted maps showing the hard
roads that have been built in the
state, those that are under course OF
construction and those that are CON

Interest in the game of lawn tennis
is being intensified in the United States
this year through the invasion Of
teams representing Australia, France
and Spain, although there is regret
that Great Britain has no wielders of
the racket on the turf court. In fact,
tennis Is having come back in the
after having occupied minor position
for some time. The international dou-
bles championship now being played in
Boston has been attracting an unusual
degree Of interest not only among the
thousands who gather to see the
matches but also among sport follow
ers who take their viewpoint of the
game from the columns of the news
papers. The attendance Of thousands
at the games is indication OF the re-
turning popularity of tennis, one of
eiic ncse spur -, anu thc PioHiiHcuet
given to the accounts Of the games by
the newspapers il another proof that
the public is interested. Tennis once
had strong hold on the young people
and It served them well. 1t is encour
aging to note now the apparent re-
sumption of the popularity of the
splendid sport.

Latterly the game Of golf has been
brought into unusual prominence
through the action Of New York club
in making contract with "profes-
sional' at salary of $4,000 year,
that amount being twice as much as
is paid the governor of the state of
New York. When a golf profession
al is hired by club he is supposed
to take the members In hand and give
them instruction on the proper way to
handle their clubs, how to carry
through their stroke, how to develop
a golfng style, etc. Those who have
watched the painstaking efforts Of
some expert in the game to teach the
novice that a golf club must not be
swung like a baseball bat will agree
that the patience required is worth
$4,000 a year, or at least figure
somewhat approaching that sum. How
ever, there are few Babe Ruths Of golf
who can command $4,000 year. Most
of the professionals in the business
are perfectly willing to accept sum
lower than that because
there are many chances to pick
up money on the side, besides engaging
in outdoor life many months of the
year.

Gen. Woods Return.

The report that General Leonard
Wood would come home next January,
after having resigned a. governor gen
eral of the Philippines, may not be
well founded The position at the
head of the University Of Pennsylva-
mia which he accepted before going
TO the Philippines is still awaiting his
return. But there is more to the sit
uation than that Signs may be noted
that the general supporters for the
presidency in 1920 have not abandoned
hope that 1924 win bring him again
to the front in American politics.

wage increase for Steel workers.

The recent immigration policy of the
United States cannot be ignored in dis
cussing the economic causes Of the in
crease of 20 per cent in the wages of
day laborers in the iron and steel in
dustry. The war had the effect of
stopping emigration from Europe for
several years, but since the war Con
gress has passed an act limiting i'm
migration TO an unprecedented ex-
rent. The present immigration law is
undoubtedly keeping out of this coun

as the iron and steel industry absorbs.

period of the steamship in the At

The report that, having cleaned UP the
Philippines, he would return at the
end of the year was the signal for
eulogistic editorials on our great pro-
consul These, too, have synchronized
significantly with the recent slump in
the prestige Of President Harding. If
the November elections should be I'M
favorable to the administration, a
boom for General Wood in 1924 would
not be kept very long under cover
Present Indications are that the sue
cess Of the Harding administration will
not be so overwhelming that all rivals
to the president for the Republican
nomination two years hence will be
driven from the field Taft had to
fight Col Roosevelt for his renomina-
ton in 1912; and the colonel himself
in 100000 was for a time menaced
by Senator Mark Hanna. These party
given as some may think Mckinley
had no opposition in 1900, but in 1892
President Harrison was forced into
severe contest with Blaine for the re
tention Of the leadership. The APP
are that Mr.. Harding is
far from being in the class of either
or Roosevelt as party lead
err or chief magistrate If that Is so,
his denomination in 1924 would not
go unchallenged.
General Wood was born in 1850 and
two years hence he will be 81 years
old not too old to be president, pro
vided that his robust health stays with
him. Meanwhile, his absence from the
United States might work to his po-
itical advantage. His friends should
advise him not to come home too soon.

The people of Ireland have paid their
tribute to one of the greatest men of
the present era in Ireland's history.
Michael Collins, head of the military
establishment of the new government
and virtual leader Of the government
after the death of Arthur Griffith, was
only young man when he fell vic
tim to the bullet but he had already
stamped himself as man of strong
leadership and of marked breadth Of
view. Michael Collins was beloved by
a large number of the people of Ire
land and he was respected even by
those who were called to oppose him
in the establishment OF the new gov
eminent. Collins was working for the
good of Ireland and he adopted the
course which seemed to him to assure
the ultimate recovery of Ireland from
the terrible conditions which have torn
that land for years. He was making
progress toward that condition which
would be likely to assure Ireland of I'LL
innate recovery when his career was
stopped short by the bullet. There
