ATTACK ON LA TOILETTE
Scr,ice Men in Conjunction With G. o. r. Organization. Prepare to Blaze Away at Third Party.

An attack on La Toilette, based mainly on his war record, is being planned by some local service men in conjunction with the Republican Service league. which has it's head quarters in Chicago.

FAMOUS REINSNAN
 GETS HIS TRIBUTE
TOVnSpeOple Say Goodbye to
 Beloved Pop" GeerS

Memphis, Tenn, Sept 5.-Edward r. ("Pop") Geers, veteran reinsman, killed on the track at Wheeling, w. Va, Wednesday when his horse stumbled and fell, came home today to receive the acclaim of his home folk at the finish of his last and greatest race-a winner in the gruel- ling contest of life.
 In other years, when Pop" came home, the crowds were joyous and gay in celebration of so many races won.
 Today they were bent with sor- row. The multitude paid respect to the memory of Americas greatest harness driver and his glorious rec ord on the track and, in private life.
 Pop" was 8 lovable character. His half century on the racetrack had schooled him a philosophy that was peculiarly his own-a philoso- phy in which was centered his creed of square living and clean sports manship. Just as he restrained his whip hand when seated in the sulky, he urged his horses down the home stretch to win, so he lived in pri- yate life, always considerate and kind to his follows.
 sinplicity-the very symbol of the life he lived-marked the last sad rites for the picturesque reinsman. At the home or his daufghter, Mrs. Wallace w. Cunningham, with whom he had lived for many years, a brief funeral service was conducted by the Rev. William Parker Nelson pastor of Idlewild Presbyterian church, as- sisted by the Rev Edward C. Me Gown of Pittsburgh, Pops" son-in- law.
 The body will be forwarded to Columbia, Tenn, for burial tomor- row.
