PROVES
BEST ENTRY
Of SHOW
By HARRY COSTELLO

In the south of Ireland, Lor0
means "a forecast"
It is a sort of slang expression,
employed by Irish peasants, to
indicate the result Of a reading
Of the palm, or Of the tea leaves,
by a rowing gypsy. The idea
back of it seems to be: Coming
events cast their shadows before
them"
Yesterday, at Bradley Farms,
in the first event of the annual
National Capital Horse Show, q
three-year-old bay gelding, Loro
by name, carried the colors Of
Mrs. John Hay Whitney, mistress
Of Llangollen, which is near
Middleburg, Va.
Loro, a neat bit of horse.fleSh,
is by Maccay, out Of Humani-
tartan.
LOrO Wins First
Well, Loro strutted his stuff
and carried off the blue ribbon
in the class for two and three
year olds suitable to become
hunters. Shown in hand, Loro
won good victory.
The Irish, so tits said, are wrong
just as often as any other race,
but in the matter of forecasting
future events, and particularly in
the matter Of future events per.
tanning to the horse, they are
right more often than not.
Loro, in this instance, certainly
cast the shadows of coming events,
for Mrs. Whitney's entries took
five blues out Of a possible seven
(she had entries in only seven
classes).
In that opening class, Loro
won over T. H. Sommerville'S
Wilderkit, a three-year-old brown
gelding. by Wilderness, out Of Kit
Kat. However, Wilderkit looked
the part, and acted it, too, Of q
gelding certainly not more than a
fraction of a point behind Loro,
if not split fraction Of a point.
Three In a Row
Loro repeated in the next class,
which was for three and four
year-oldS suitable to become hunt
ers and shown under saddle.
Nobody's Fool, a four-year-old
bay gelding, by June Bird, out Of
Fairy Path, scored the third con-
secutive triumph for Mrs. Whit
ney in the third event Of the day,
a class for green hunters, middle
and heavy weight.
Two classes were run off with.
out a victory for Mrs. Whitney,
and then, in the sixth event on
the days program, Spring Hope,
a 3-year-old Mad Halter mare
owned by Mrs. Whitney, scored
for a blue, to make it four out OF
six. Two events later, Mrs. Whit
ney's 6-year-old brown gelding,
Hopeful Jim, won in the class for
hunters other than thoroughbred,
making it five blues out of eight
events.
Hunter Important
Miss Julia Writings star
jumper, quick silver, aDly nanoIeo
by Stabley Greene, of Leesburg,
Va, took the final event on the
program, the modified Olympia
class. Bowling Green, a mare
from Mrs. Whitney's stable, took
fourth in this event. which was
over jumping course that was
rather stiffish.
Friends of steeplechasing and
hunting certainly should attend
this National Capital show. The
supremacy of the hunter is so
obvious that even the dullard may
grasp the fact that horse show
sponsors finally have awakened to
the fact that horse shows no
longer may be listed as society
events. but, on the contrary, must
have a sporting complexion or
else fall by the wayside as events
of any Importance whatsoever.

DOG POISONERS AND DOGS

Two controversial points, which, like
the poor, are always with us, have risen
again, and dogs are at the center of the
discussion.
Dogs are being poisoned in this city,
and dogs are destroying private property,
making life miserable for neighborhoods
by howline through the night, and in gen.
eral conducting themselves as nuisances.
There can be no excuse for the dog
poisoner, and only little less for owners
of dogs who permit them to become
neighborhood nuisances.
City residents, who insist on keeping
dogs, should realize that by so doing they
accept the responsibility of seeing that
their animals are not neighborhood nuis-
ances. The resident who tries hard to
improve his property by planting lawns
and shrubbery, only to have them dug
up and destroyed by some neighbor's dog,
cannot be blamed if he takes stern
measures to keep the dog off his prem
ises if the animals owner will not do it.
The same reasoning applies to the dog
who insists on bowling ali night. 1t is
the duty of his master to keep him from
bowling, otherwise he lays himself open
to having his neighbors take matters in
to their own hands
In neither instance, however, Is the
poisoning CT dogs held justifiable. 1t is
not only fiendish cruelty to the animal
who may eat the poison, but there is
grave danger of possibly
children-getting the poison intended for
the dog. There is no excuse for the
poisoner-le is despicable. If he is driv-
en- to distraction by dog outrages, he has
the right to appeal to the dogs owner,
or to the authorities for relief, and fail
ing in these efforts he can hardly be CEN
sured for removing the offending animal
but he should never poison it.
Nor can the dog owner, who permits
his animal to become a nuisance, rightly
condemn his neighbors for complaining.
The complainants are not ''cranks' or
bad neighbors if their property is des-
troyed or their peace of mind disturbed
by the dogs conduct.
1t is regrettable that dogs-universal-
ly recognized as mans best friend-can
be the cause of so much trouble, yet each
year sees neighborhood feuds and dis
agreements started here in El Centro be-
cause of them. A little consideration for
others, little application Of the Golden
Rule would prevent such occurrences.
Dog owners-don't think only of your
dog and yourself; remember your neigh
bors. You who are annoyed by dogs
don't, under any circumstances, poison
them.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE

"Off for an adventure" he an

you will find an adventure there" "
Where are you going?" asked
Uncle Wiggily.
"Oh. it's secret and we can't
tell" said Jingle.
Thanks" said the rabbit gentle
man. but I like to know where I

to tell a secret. So I'll be waiting

how you like carrots, we invited you

the animal children danced around
the blazing fire to get warm. JAG 'iie,
Peetie, Gutter, Buster and all the
other animal boys brought many
sticks of wood 10 pile on the blaze.
Uncle Wiggily also gathered what

LOCK UP THE HOMES

Already the advance guard of Ell Cen
tro's undesirable winter residents has ar
rived, Judging from police reports show
ing several cases of petty theft.
There is an old axiom that if a thief
wants to get into house he will do so,
but that is no reason for making it easier
for the light-fingered gentry to ply their
trade.
1t is impossible to place policeman
on every block, nor even on every other
block. and even if this could be done
there would still be thefts, due in many
cases to the carelessness of householders
who unwittingly aid the thief and hand
leap the police.
Residents should take care to lock up
their houses, including windows as we'll
as doors, when they leave home. 1t is
even advisable to take precaution when
there is somebody in the house, for there
have been many instances of homes being
entred while families were occupying
them.
Among some of the older residents
there exists a habit, relic of pioneer
days, of going out and leaving the house
unlocked. That was we'll enough 20
years ago when everyone knew everyone
else and practically all were honest. To-
day the householder who leaves his home
nnguarded, day or night, is inviting the
thief to help himself. There is nothing
to be gained by taking a chance.
And if home should be entered, the
police should be notified immediately
upon discovery of the crime and moth
ing should be touched until an officer
arrives. Valuable clues in identifying the
criminal may be destroyed by the house
holder who decides to turn detective.
1t is better to leavesuch work to those who
are trained for it.

A NNAPOLIS. Md. October 2s-Re-
n ports of the Nays victory over
Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, the
first for the MiddieS over a major op-
ponent in two seasons. was received
here with great enthusiasm and it Is
felt that the triumph will give the Navy
players confidence for the four hard
games that are before them with Notre
Dame. Columbia, Princeton and Army
Hundreds here who heard reports of
the game over the radio we're on edge,
however. until DORM made the play in
the closing minutes Of the game that
insured victory. After the Nays early
score. the report gave the impression
that Pennsylvania was getting the bet
ter Of the contest. and touchdown
and victory by scoring the extra point
was feared.
1t is also felt here that it was fortu-
nate for Navy that Buzz Berries was
able to play after almost two weeks of
absence from the field. and that the
Navy would have had little chance to
win without him.
The Navy touchdowns we're made by
its regular basket ball forwards, Bor-
ries and Bob Dornin. The latter made
his in true basket ball style, BY grab
