ported gelding, accounted for the
feature Bluefields Purse at the Fair
Grounds today to the general salts
faction Of an attendance that had
supported him in favoritism.
The spectacular running left
doubt that Irish Kiss had been best,
because Valor, the runner-up. was

early running in an effort to race
Courtship into subsection. He sue
ceeded in doing that after five fur
longs, when he and Courtship led
the remainder by four lengths, but
the effort told in the final test.
Morris brought Irish Kiss with a
rHah on the outside to take the
honers by a half length. valor

and led Runzaf by eight lengths
for the place. The mile was run
in 30.

In telling about it, she said:
The motto has suggested MANY

the work nearer home.

to mission school and to chill

children are now constantly on
the watch for an opportunity to
help others, and We feel that
their interest and sympathies
have been widened as never be-

found that a card to go with IL
would be necessary: other grades
made scraphooks and toys for
