well cushioned with fat. Women's knees are beautiful, but they never were meant for riding race horses for the reason that they can't grip. The fat rolls and slips and the fair rider of a fast horse is quite liable to find herself out of the stirrups and over the head of her mount.
 The trick of riding race horse the feat of 2inching the withers with the knees. A rider can stick on his mount just as long as his knees do not slip. Even a very thin woman cannot acquire this knack because all women have knees that curve deliciously and yet detrimentally to .he job of riding race horse.

A MONO the real, honest-to-good-
 "A ness mems jobs there are only 4 A few that women haven't conclu- sively proved that they could fill and fill very well, too, but there is still left the job of being jockey, the profes- sional riding of race horses.
 The fact that women are not yet com peting with men on the race tracks isn't due to any lack of women who are sure that they would make first class jockeys and are eager for a chance at the job. It is all the fault of the stern officials of the jockey clubs who continue to frovn on women's aspirations to ride race horses.
 There are undoubtedly many women who would like very much to become jockeys and are convinced that they could pilot race horse around the track as skillfully as any man. This IS only natural since women are taking such a great interest in riding and racing and it has become quite the thing for society women to have their own stables and race their horses under their own colors.
 Why is it that women aren't welcomed into the field of race horse riding as they have been in so many other fields where men have long been supreme? It IS not because there is any over supply ot jockeys. On the contrary, there is al- ways a shortage of good riders. About the best news that stable owners could hear would be that new jockey had proved his ability to ride horse to vic- tory. Even a fairly good jockey makes a salary of $15,000 year and the stars like Sandy and Fator can command al- most any salary. No, the reason why women haven't entered this field is because so-called experts are still convinced that women are by nature unftted to ride in pro- fessional race in competition with men. l A woman who recently tried hard for chance to prove this idea untrue IS Mile. Fanny Heldy, French grand opera star. Mile. Heldy has long been race track fan and an owner ot famous thoroughbreds, but she grew tired ot merely watching her horses run. She wanted to ride them herself and she felt sure that she would make just as tal- ented a jockey as she is singer. 50 she appeared before Count Paul de Pour
 tales, the newly elected president of the
 French Jockey Club, and begged for a l license to ride.
 Count de Pourtales considered Mile.
 Heldy's request very seriously, but he
 was obliged to turn her down because
 he said he must act in keeping with the
 traditions and policies of the celebrated French Jockey Club. In his opinion, he | said, women lack the strength to stand the strain of professional riding.
 In England the racing authorities are
 of much the same opinion and though
 women have participated in races for
 over 100 years it has almost always been ] in races exclusively for women. Last ] year Miss Eileen Joel, daughter of the | South African mining magnate, proved ! her skill and ability by riding her horse \ to victory and winning the Newmarket
 cup:

rider of this school does not grip his mount but depends on balancing his body in such a way that he can stick on even in a fast race.
 The best known ex- ponent of this kind of riding is the Prince of Wales, MT. Pond says that in balance riding a rider does not fall with his horse but is thrown clear from his mount

ing that women are physically inferior and will always have to be known as the weaker sex and yet after people had talked themselves hoarse about the su- periority of men in the water along came Miss Gertrude Ederle to prove by conquering the English Channel in rec ord time that the world was very badly mistaken on this question of superiority.
 Miss Ederle's feat has proved that women have just as much strength and endurance as men so why is it that the lords of the turf deny women jockeys licenses?
 It is, authorities in the matter say, largely because of women's dimpled knees that artists and poets rave over
New Britain herald., 1926-09-23

But there is still hope for the de- termined women who aspire to con- pete with men as professional jockeys, Wilfred P. Pond, sporting editor and authority on racing, explains just how it may come about that girls some day will be licensed jockeys.
 There is, he says, a kind of riding known as balance riding which every day is better and better thought of A

 The latest race of this kind was held only recently at the fashionable Brookline, Mas < sachusetts, track.

 Miss Beatrice H well, A known as one of the most x experienced horse women in the country, came in first. Miss Peggy Porter and Mrs. K. Howard won second and third places. These aristo- cratic young ladies aston ished the spectators not only by riding their own horses but by appearing in regula- tion jockey apparel.
 There have been many such contests in this country and race track fans have be- come accustomed to seeing young women in these anna teur races. Even in the days when women rode in side ] saddles they insisted on rac- { ing. J

Since that time the Jockey Club has been deluged with requests from women who want to be professional jockeys. But British racing authorities feel that women aren't by nature jockeys and they arc by no means ready to grant them license. They doubtless have in mind the precedent of the late King Edward who felt so strongly on the mat ter that he threatened to bar all women from riding astride in Hyde Park,

IS YOUR CHECKING
ACCOUNT PROFITABLE?

The checking account of today which does not have
balance of $500 costs the bank money. Why?
OF the $500 we will allow ten per cent, or $780, as
the bank income for the year of 1920
That checking account will cost the bank on the av-
erage 81 month overhead for just keeping the books
straight the account is inactive If we allow four
checks week at cost of cents each the bank $42O
which added the SIP in overhead totals or
just the amount of the income
1t stands them that if our bank or any other
just splits even $500 balance in checking account
we absorb loss in smaller When do that though
we figure the account will grow and become profitable to
sometime in the future. :.

Egg collections in the country are
showing some decrease, but quota
tions at Chicago on fresh frsts are
nominally unchanged from week
ago, while at New York somewhat
higher prices are ruling on the better
grades, but there is a wide range in
values, occasioned by difference in
quality, of the shipments. At this
time of the year, producers will find
that prompt collection of eggs and
frequent marketing will be helpful in
bringing top prices.
Receipts of live poultry at New
York were about equal to the de-
mand and stock cleared at the end
of the week at fractionally higher
prices than for sales earlier in the
week.
Broilers are moving in constant in
creasing quantities. Prices are con-
siderably higher than the correspond
ing time last year, both at Chicago
and New York.
Receipts Of dressed poultry were
heavier than trade channels could alb
sorb and prices on fowl and chickens
particularly, were reduced to clear
the surplus. It is quite probable
that as the receipts Of broilers in
crease, the markets for both live and
