DAMASk CAPTURES
STEEPLECHASE At
LAUREL IN DRIVE
Duettiste Second and Musty
Third in Secondary Fea-
ture of Day.

LAUREL RACE TRACK, Md, Octo-
ber 2o.-Despite the magnitude of the
international contest at Belmont Park
between the great three-year-olds.
Zev and Papyrus, Laurel Park this
afternoon offered program which
quickened the pulse of some fifteen
odd thousand that undertook the
journey from Washington, Baltimore
and the surrounding neighborhood.
The skies broke clear and cloudless
this morning, but the main racing
strip, ruined by the copious rains of
yesterday, was a morass that only
the most pronounced mudder could
negotiate with any degree of GER
tainty. A large force of men, aided
by, drags and harrows, turned the
an early hour this morning. The sun
and wind assisted considerably, but
stretches of water and Shiny mud
were visably discernible on the front
stretch and in the hollows at the
turns.
Jirx Still Continues.
The jinx that has pursued the
Belair stud was very much in evil
dence in the opening race this after
noon when Jockey T. Finn tossed off
the first race astride Aga Kahn when
he was beaten by a nose by Mrs II.
Suppliant was third. Jockey Finn
astride Aga Khan lodged a complaint
of foul following the running of the
race, declaring that Jockey Ambrose,
aStride the winner, interfered with
him in the final sixteenth. The foul
was not allowed and the official plac-
ing stood. The winner outran his
field from the start and drew away
into a long lead in the early stages.
He stopped badly at the end and was
momentarily headed by Aga Khan.
Then 1t appeared that Finn ceased
riding and the two-year-old began. to
stop of his own will. Suppliant went
forwardly all the way and had no
excuses. Batsman was neglected
factor.
The Greentree stable Of jumpers, in
charge of Vincent Powers, continued
its success this afternoon, whensDam-
ask accounted for the running of the
Patuxent steeplechase, which carried
an added value of $4,000, over the
two-mile course. Ridden by Jockey
er's Duestiste in a, drive, which in
turn was ridden out to beat home J..
S. Cosden's Musty. Eight starters
paraded for the event and produced
one of the best contests seen through
the field this fall. OF the lot to start
but one failed to finish the course,
w. j. Salmon's Courteous, which lost
his rider at the thirteenth fence.
Musty cut out the early running
from the break, and in going set a
fast pace. Courteous and Duettiste
were well up, while Damask was
bringing up toward the rear under
restraint. Through the first run of
the field there was but little change,
and on the second lap the field be-
came closely punched. Damask was
sent through on the inside, while the
Widener starter made his move
against Musty. The latter began. to
final fence was headed by the pair.
In the final drive Damask closed with
splendid courage and asted his
top-weighted rival by good length.
The entry was accorded considerable
support. and the victory was popu-
lar one.

The prohibition phase of the con-

PAPER WHEELS FOUND
IMPRACTICAL

The paper car wheel that got so much
publicity years ago and which was used
quite extensively in railroading is not
what it is cracked up to be. The old
reliable steel wheel has replaced the once
popular paper-corded article in almost
every instance. There was a time when
every Pullman car was equipped with pa
per wheels. The Pullman Car Co. now
reports that the paper wheel is only a
memory, the last one having been dropped
from its service some time ago. 1t was
found impractical, they say.
The main objection found with the pa
per wheel was that if a car remained
stationary for any considerable time the
paper core "Aattened," so to speak. The
paper wheel was much discussed back in
1880 when it was argued that the paper
center would not be susceptible to the ex-
panding and contracting influences of heat
and cold. 1t was also argued that the pa
per core helped deaden the sound under
passenger cars. The paper wheel was
popular for about quarter of century.
Common strawboard was used in its
manufacture. About 1872 sheets were
dampened and pressed together. This
formed the block from which the wheel
was made. The block was turned on a
lathe until the proper spherical form was
reached. Contrary to popular idea, the
whole wheel was not paper-only the inner
part was. The paper part was incased in
steel tire. A 3S-inch wheel with three
inch tire weighed 1,070 pounds. The
present all-steel wheel which has taken its
place, of which there are twelve under
each large passenger coach, is thirty-six
inches in diameter and weighs 925 pounds,
or 145 pounds less than the paper article.

THANKSGIVING CALLED
"HARVEST HOME"
CONTINUED from page y

dinavians offered sacrifices to Frey, the
god of the rain and the sunshine.
What is known as "the shouting of the
churn" comes down from the time when
Apollo was worshiped in England. The
churn or kern means a ring or circle
formed by several persons holding hands.
The word churn also signifies a chaplet
worn around the head or carried sus-
pended on a pole in procession. So "the
shouting Of the churn" means the merri-
ment that always accompanied wearing a
chaplet or dancing in circle.
Another old custom is the "kemping" of
England, in Scotland called "a NELL"
Nell is sometimes spelled melee, which is
better, as melee, or row, often resulted
from contending for leadership in dispatch
ing the last days work in the field. Each
reaper left handful of the harvest uncut,
and the bonniest lass was allowed to gather
these handfus and to make out of them
"corn baby" This was brought home in
triumph, set up in the feast and preserved
for the remainder of the year. The lass
was called the harvest queen. Sometimes
instead of being made into doll the pro-
ducts of the field would be formed into a
mare, and the reapers would amuse the
guests by trying to cut down the mare
with their sickles. The man who sue
ceeded in the undertaking would declare
what should be done with the mare.

mathematics. With the man who says,
Arithmetic is all need" I agree, that's
all he does need. But to the we'll educated
man, complete knowledge of the mathe-
matics is as essential as a complete know
ledge of his mother tongue.

doing a dinky little business. He's the fellow who always
offers you something just as good"
Just as the local merchant will always remain the little
merchant, If he does not advertise honestly, so does the manu-
facturer remain a little manufacturer, conducting a little busi-
ness, if he attempts to distribute a commodity without adver-
Using. Advertising will build his business in proportion to the
public need which he meets and the reliability of his own state
ment about that which he has to sell. No business can grow
great without advertising and it will grow great only in proper
ton to the amount and character of the advertising which it
does. No business can grow great without honest advertising.
YOU-you and me, just average buyers. What shall we
buy! Shall We buy of the Bagdad merchant and take the stuff
without the sterling stamp?
The intelligent purchaser buys through his merchant the
commodities that are ADVERTISED be-
cause he knows that experience has taught the business
builders that a false statement about their goods means death
to their business.
Your Bagdad merchant will size you up and charge you
what he thinks he can get. You candicker and barter with him.
He's a many priced man. He begins on a high price and
reluctantly comes down step by step to meet you.
That's what your little shop keeper who does not advertise
will do. He is not a fixed price man. That is what he does
with the substitute, the just as good article.
Go to the reputable merchant, ask for the nationally adver-
tised commodity, the manufacturer has stamped the price
where you can see it, and there you get PROTECTION.
If you are an intelligent buyer you will buy of the local
merchant that adverhses because he is the fellow who is
willing to stand or fall by the public printed statement he
makes.
Be WISE and buy the nationally advertised commodity
from the local advertising merchant and leave it to the foolish

is a matter of experience not Of observation.
L Thirty years ago a profession Of economics in one of our
leading universities made the statement that 800 OF all the
money invested in advertising was lost, and attempted to prove
his observation by the statistics of commercial failures.
That professor is today one of the most famous educators
in the country. He is famous because he grew by experience
to repudiate his youthful observation. He now reverses the
faulty findings of his youth and today declares that 9o% of

If your advertisement says you have all wool goods and
you've only $50 wool, the time will come when you will be
found out. When that time comes all the advertising in the
world won't save you. The public will call your middle name
Fake" and view you with mistrust.
The streets of Bagdad are lined with beggars, men who
tried to live by trick and failed. Back OF these beggars who
crowd the curb are long lines of little stalls where trcksters
ply all the arts of trade. Everyone views the other with sus-
pcion and every customer looks upon the tradesman with sus-
picion. There is no such thing as a stabilized commodity
among them. There are no great department stores in Bagdad,
no great clothing merchants, no hardware houses that carry
the trademark stamp that assures you that what you get is all
it is claimed to be.
Here in this country, our manufacturers, men OF character,
put integrity into their product. They advertise the product
for just what it is-that, no less and no more. So you go into a
store here or a thousand miles from here and ask for the COM
modify that YOU KNOW. You know about it. You don't
even have to have it unwrapped; you are willing to take it in
its original package with the seal unbroken; trade insight,
unseen. This you do because it has been advertised.
Every merchant who does not advertise or who cannot adj
vertise honestly will always conduct a business of Bagdad-
booth proportions. He will always be a little shop keeper,
