~HURLlNc THE HORSESHOE

: Motor cars may think they have put
horseshoes out of business, but they have
not done anything Of the kind. The horse
shoe is an adaptable article when It comes
to lengthening it's own tenure OF usefulness.
It is still serving to protect the hoofs OF Ice
wagon steeds and to bring luck to the girl
who is being rushed by the sororities, but
it is now deep in new sphere OF activity.
It has entered the life Of the sportsman and
is cutting big figure in that capacity. -
The Nati6na1 Horseshoe tournament IS.
on III Des Moines, and naturally the horse
shoe feels its Importance. It shares atten-
ton with the stakes that enter into the
game. Its molecules stir to the thrill OF
competition, and to the touch Of the hand

skill against all Corners Of their sex. >.
1t may seem to the motor car like an
anachronism that the veteran andsvener-
able horseshoe should occupy 50 large q
place in the up-to-date world of pleasure,
and it may cause some chagrin to chat IN
stitution, but Old Dobbin over in the field
must enjoy the situation. Horseshoe pitch
ing was an exciting game in the days OF our
grandfathers and before, but it is doubtful
if it ever engaged such widespread and
keen attention as it does today. Surely our
grandmothers were not in the habit OF 60
ing to- horseshoe tournaments, putting up
at hotels and mingling with star pitchers
from over the land. They were too busy
weaving homespun, making soft soap, dry
ing peaches and the like. -. ~.

resented in the Des Moines assembly by
both men and women. Some of the Go

depended on to maintain the dignity OF the
state and to keep high the standards ct

Supreme Court
Gives Real Estate
Business Boost
Decision In Favor of Ten
nessee License Law Re-
garded as Big Victory by
Brokers of Many States

The decision Of the United States
Supreme Court In favor Of the Tennes-
see real estate license law was great
victory for the realty business, since It
placed the approval of the highest legal
tribunal In the country on actions OF
several states in placing the bushes OF
real estate under the supervision and
regulation Of government.
The National Association OF keai
Estnts Boards, through its general
counsel. Nathan William hacCnesney,
prepared the Briefs and arguments
which were presented TO the supreme
Court. The outcome Of the case as
sures that as far as the courts are
concerned at least the propriety and
desirability OF regulating the real
estate business for the benefit OF the
nuhIIn has been forever determined.
The Tennessee real estate license
Law was based upon the model license
law prepared By the national assoeia-
zion In 1915. Some months ago in a
case known as X. W. Bratton vt. VIII
liam Chandler, the United States Dis
frict Court Of the Western District OF
Tennessee held that this law WAS IN
constitutional, being in violation OF the
Fourteenth Amendment Of the Consu-
tuition Of the United states and GER
tain clauses Of the constitution OF Ten.
nessee. and an injunction was issued
restraining the Tennessee Real Estate
Cornrnission from enforcing II. Aside
from the general questions involved,
the court held the law 10 be void be-
eauae IN its opinion a man might be
deprived Of his lawful rights 70 en-
gage in business without due notice
and hearing"
The case was appealed directly to
the United States Supreme Court
which reversed the findings Of the
lower court. In its decision the su-
preme Court holds that:
