Ray Club fair was most enjoyable
being OF variety and talent. The
Lawrence family, eight in number
played two band selections, which
demonstrated well the ability and the
talent of this remarkable family of
musicians. Perhaps the most uncon-
cerned of the band was the smallest
member of the family, aged four
years, who played the triangle right
on time.
Miss Olive Norris of Lewiston, who
has this winter started dancing
classes in the city, gave a delightful
Interpretation of Hungarian Rhap-
sody". Clad in shimmering white
cossack suit trimmed with gold braid
md wearing jaunty ermine
cap, topped with emerald green and
| little cape of the same color, Miss
Norris presented a most attractive
picture. She went through the steps

of a dancer of the veldt. Miss Kath-
crime Woodside was her accompanist
Miss Marjorie Gray gave her own
conception of Just Bein' Happy" to
music and this child dancer brought

The bituninous branch of the coal
industry, on which the United
States Coal Commission is to report
in the autumn, has meanwhile taken
definite steps along the line of self
organization to serve the public in
emergencies.
John C. Brydon, who as chairman
of the special committee appointed
to cooperate with the Presidents
commission has been in close touch
with the internal affairs of the in
dustry and with outside reactions,
was unanimously elected president
of the National Coal Association at
that body's convention during the
latter part of June.
Mr.. Brydon has advanced a plan
for minute man" organization of
the 5000 independent bituminous
operators, making the entire soft
coal supply of the nation instantly
available in any crisis of peace or
war. His suggestions, requiring
only an enabling act of Congress to
empower the President to declare an
emergency and draft coal resources,
were formulated in advance of sim
liar recommendations by the coal
commission, affecting the anthra-
cite branch of the industry.
"a committee from this body"
Mr.. Brydon told the men who elect
ed him their leader, SHOULD consult

with the War and Navy Depart
ments concerning their possible
emergency needs and also with the
Interior and Commerce Depart
ments. We should hold ourselves
responsive to requests from any OF
the departments.
"This plan should include the per-
sonnet, so that when an emergency
does arise they may go individually
and collectively to their pre-ar-
ranged posts and begin to function.
This personnel may be changed
from time to time as circumstances
demand, but personnel can always
be, and should always be provided.
This plan should be so compre-
hensive that it would not only apply
to the central organization at Gov
eminent headquarters but to the re-
hottest coal-producing districts In
the United States. Such a plan,
when worked out to the last detail,
with the informal approval Of the
Government and transportation,
would need only an act Of Congress
to legalize 1t at the time the emer-
gency arises. Once accepted by the
Government, it would rival any pre-

CLEMENTINA

TLEMDNTINA had Its origin In an
cient Rome. Clemens was cog
nomen and was borne by Vespasian's
nephew, Titus Flavius Clemens, who
was put to death by DomItian on a
charge of atheism, like others who
went over to Christianity. A very
early church at Rome is dedicated to
him and he is thought by some to be
the same Clemens which st. Paul men
lions.
Clemens, taken as a Latin adjective,
signifies ''merciful"; from 1t the sub
stantive elemental came to be formed.
The Romans worshiped elemental, the
personified virtue, as a goddess, bear
ing a. cup In one hand and lance in
the other, and the title "Your Clemen-
cy" became the mode of addressing EN-.
perors.
In England and France, Clementina
IA probably the direct outgrowth Of
the legend of st. Clements, who was
martyred by being beheaded and
thrown into the sea, where shrine Of
coral was formed around his head. He
Is the patron saint Of sailors. Italy
modernized the early Roman goddess
by calling her Clemenza and Germany
IL responsible for Clementine. The
charming Clementina is the English
version. 1t gained great vogue and
achieved widespread usage in honor
Of the italian lady in "Sr @. Grandi-
son."

At night all was quiet but he did
not sleep at night; it was In the
daytime he had his best maps, and
now he could no longer enjoy his rest.
He would have to move.
Grandfather Rat started out to find
a new home. and he found one close
by a pond. Here I can have plenty
of water" he said. "And 1t Ia not
too far from the barn, and l am
sure will have peace and quiet when

So he moved and made a nice place
for his home in the bank and slept
all day, waking up once in while
just to enjoy the quiet of his new
home and tell himself how wise he
was to move and how lucky to have
found this very spot.
He waited until 1t was dark before
starting for the barn. BE even dozed
while he was waiting, but he awoke
with start, for his sharp ears caught
peculiar sounds and he sat up and
listened.

Grandfather Rat looked out carefully
from his home. He saw nothing, but
he heard hundreds of different voices
calling, go round, go round" All
night long he sat and listened, not
daring to stir out of his house, for he
was sure hundreds Of men must be
waiting to capture him.
The next day, as soon as Ii was
quiet, out came Grandfather Rat and
ran for the barn, where he ate a
good breakfast, and then under the
floor he went to his old home, and
In spite of the noise made by the
puppies and kittens, he slept soundly

There are several factors which
cause lameness in horses. Some are
hereditary and others are environ

prevented largely in the future by
using only good, sound breeding stock.
and the environmental effects can
only be checked by providing the
