Spends Court Award To
Give Child Her old Title
Injured Circus Performer Gets
100000 Damages - VIII
Use to Develop Daughter

TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct. 29.--The
world is not so black as it was for
Hettie McCree.
Hcttie once was a circus perform
er-pictured on biIlboards as "the
greatest bareback rider in the
world"
A railroad accident six years ago
broke her back and ended her circus
career.
Worse than the pain was the
thought that she would never see
her name on the billboards again,
never thrill thousands with her dar-
ing bareback stunts.
But now Hettie hopes to live over
again in her seven-year-old daugh
ter, Rena.
The Michigan Central Railroad
has awarded Hettie 500, 600. Most
of it will be used to develop Rana
as rival for the honors showcred
upon her mother in days never to
return.
at has been a long fight and the
money comes when Il is needed"
says Hettic in reviewing the fight
for damages that was carried all
the way to the United States Sal
preme Court.
'Pd gladly give it all back if 1
could return to the circus, and I'll
spend it all if necessary to educate
Rena to take my place.
next summer, during school va
cation, I'm going to send her with
May With, best woman rider in
the world. Rena VIII learn. It's
in her blood"
Rena's babyhood vas spent in
the atmosphere of the sawdust
ring. Her mothers parents before
her were bareback riders. Her
father now is with Sells-Floto, still
suffering from injuries to his foct
received in the accident in which
Het5ie McCree was hurt.
AS Hettie talks there is a tromor
in her voice and PARKWAY look in
her eyes.
She sees a billboard proclaiming
Greatest bareback rider in the
world"
And the name over the picture,
once Hettie McRree, is Rena Nc
Cree.

OREGON TO BE WAR
MINISTER IN CABINET

MEXICO CITY, October 30
President Oregon probably will be
minister of war in the cabinet of
Fresident-elect Gales, it is authori-
tatively stated. Obregon's inclus-
ion in the new cabinet as minister
of war would insure a peaceful ad-
ministration for Gales SO far as
the army is concerned, as Obre-
CONS influence could control both
officers and men.
Gales and Senior Morones, leader
of the labor party, are said to be
approaching a disagreement which
would cause moderate laborites and
extreme radicals in the chamber to
unite, thus greatly strengthening or
gained labor in congress.

Cold weather of early winter par.
ticularly means an added strain ON
the poultryman. He must exercise
more diligent care of the flock and
supply the needed aids for the com.
fort Of the flock.
Warm Food Essential
Chilling a fowl by allowing it to
partake of cold food is not desirable
and has similar effect to cold
quarters. If you feed wet mash. the
water with which the mash is mixed
should he hot to thoroughly warm

One should not imagine that be-

good results. The poultry house
must be so constructed as to admit

but no snow or deep mud On the
ground; if the day is pleasant the
cold, but invigorating oxygen, which
the fowls will take into their lungs
will do them a great deal of good.
| They may get their feet bit wet but
this does practically no harm if they
have clean dry poultry house with
| plenty of clean litter in which to
forage and scratch. During snow
storms the fowls generally will not
venture out of the poultry house as
instinct teaches them that they are
safer indoors, but precautions should
be taken to confine them as well as
to protect the house from the ele-
ments.
Except under the severe conditions
stated above, there is ordinarily no
necessity for keeping fowls confined
to the house on account Of the
weather.
Experiments carried on at the
Pratt Poultry Experimental Farm,
Philadelphia, Pa, have shown that
the healthy chick in winter weather
is the one who gets plenty of exer-

the only things he could hurl were
words.
And even of these he couidn't
use the rugged verbal brick-baths hc
would have preferred.
The O'Connor utterance in which
the committee was particularly in
terested was contained in a spsecf
at Buffalo, N. Y In that sp1ccr
the shipping board chairman d.
manded:
How muth money has SOVIET
Russia sent into this country to hell

To the committee members the
query, but was rhetorical ques.

inference that Russia had h pee
finance the La Toilette campaign.
But O'Connor disciaimed anJ at
tempt at rhetoric.
81 didn't say Rooshia had sent

a question? Read it for yourself
If that amt a question, then what is
it? But do believe Rooshia has
supplied money for that campaign
Where else is all this La Toilette

So
As politician O'Connor proved
himself a frst-class longshorenan
when, in a heated denunciation #
communists and socialists, he de-
clared:
"They've nominated this here man
Borah for president-ah--I mean
Foster"
Senator Borah, chairman of the
committee, joined in the general
outburst Of laughter. his enjoyment
eff the slip seeming about equal to
discontinue.

Russia and the reds,' Borah said as
he finally raped for order.
Probably it was the softvoiced,
drawing, suave but sarcastic ques-
tioning Of Untermeyer that caused
the witness to "see red"
Untermeyer took evident pleasure
in trapping him in verbal entaHgle-
ments. The hotter O'Connor De-
came the icier and more calculating
grew Untermeyer.
When O'Connor finished, Unter-

him like a satisfied owl who had just
