PRECEDENT ON HIS SIDE

PRECEDENI ON HIS SIDE If precedent means anything, the Johnson speedster should carry off the three-year old honors. Gal lant Fox won the 1929 renewal of the Junior champion and then accounted for three-year old clas- sics the following year. Twenty Grand took the Junior Champion in 1880 and was crowned the three year old title-holder in 1892. Faireno came through in the 1881 running of the Junior Champion and last year recovered from a bad early season start, to be rec ognized as the leading three-year- old.
 Repaid is bred for distance. If all goes well the colt will get his trials for the Derby in two races. either at Havre de Grace, Lex ington or on a New York track. if the metropolitan season opens early enough. Trainer Eddie Phe- Ian says he will have Repaid ready for the races early in April.

lake It rom MT. OTlO Sou- ertson, who often gets up very early in the morning to join the railbirds, there's a horse named Repaid which will bear consider able watching in the Kentucky Derby this spring. s
 Repaid is owned by James F. Johnson, who claims to have lost $100,0G0 to Harry F. Sinclair in the famous Playfellow deal a num- Der of years ago. The colt was bought by Johnson's Quincy Sta ble for $1200 at Sinclair disper- sal sale and named with the idea he might help MT Johnson to "get even" with the one-time owner of the famous Rancocas Stable
 If you don't recall the Playfel- low deal, it concerned horse by that name, sold by Johnson to Sim clair for $100,000. Later Sinclair claimed Playfellow was a wind sucker" sued Johnson and won a verdict that cancelled the sale.
 FAVORED BY TURFMEN
 A bigger horse by 150 pounds than when he won the Junior champion stakes last year, the son of Kal Sank looks every inch a champion, says MT. Robertson. His knees bear the ugly scars of the firing irons, applied last fall as a precautionary measure, but otherwise he is as fine looking thoroughbred as ever stepped hoof on the American turf.
 Quoted at 20 to l in the future books, Repaid is considered by
The Daily Alaska empire., 1933-03-24

many turfmen the horse to beat in the Derby. He won only one important race last year, the jun for champion stakes, but he prob ably was the best horse in the Pimlico Futurity, finishing third after a long delay at the post, where he was kicked.

PRESIDENTS SPAN OF LIFE

Why all this maudlin attitude toward
ex-presidents, that they sacrifice t. cir lives
for their country, and die an untimely
death. Even if it were true, there are hum
dreds of statesmen, some of them So
called, who are willing to take the risk in
becoming president But it is not correct
for the average life span of the presidents
has been So, very close to mans allotment
of three score and ten. The late President
Coolidge himself said that he was in bet
ter physical condition when he left the
White House than when he entered it.
Only six of the 20 past presidents
were younger than Calvin Coolidge's 60
years when they died, and three of the six
died by ssination-Lincoln, Garfield
and Mckinley. Their life expectation, had
they not met with a tragic death, would
very probably have advanced the average
life span of the presidents to much beyond
20 years.
President-reject Hoover, soon to be-
come the only living ex-president, accord
ing to news dispatches is making no bones
about having his eye on the presidency in
1886, this with his term not yet finished,
and shortly after hard campaign in which
ne and his party were overwhelmingly
repudiated.
OF course, the presidency is q mans
job, but not necessarily killing one.

SOME EARLy SCHOOLS

One of the first laws passed in Amer
lea in the interest of education was en-
acted by Massachusetts, Bay Colony in
164T, and required all towns of so or more
house-holders to appoint a teacher to in
struct children to read and write. No
special qualifications were set for teachers,
and the pay was miserably small.
Even before this law was passed, Ded-
ham, Mas, had a free school supported
year. In most cases, however, the town
paid "a portion of the expense and the
pupils made up the remainder through
tuition fees The record of one school
shows that the tuition charge was CT cents
for three months
Closely following Massachusetts,,
similar schools were established in the
Connecticut colonies, and in 1857 the New
Haven colonial court ordered that each
town not already maintaining school
Should open one and pay one-third of its
expenses, the rest to be paid on per capita
basis by families served.
Plymouth Colony later on provided
Schooi money by leasing It's fisheries on the
coast, thus raising about $50 year. In
New Amsterdam, now New York, the first
schools. were supported by the West India
Company, but controlled by the Dutch Re-
formed Church.
There was also dame SCHOOLS, !"
taught by women i. heir homes, these
teachers receiving as little as 10 shillings,
or $1.67, year. In 1852 the, salary of
President Rogers of Harvard University
was fixed at $516 year one-third of
which was paid in provisions or ler
goods.
In the early elementary schools only
reading, writing and the Bible were taught,
those who desired to learn arithmetic be-
ing obliged to resort to a special 5-phering
master"

BUSINESS PROSPECTS

Business prospects for 1888 are largely
a matter of opinion and both optimistic
and pessimistie views seem about equally
divided
The optimists figure that 1882 was
snch bad year that 1888 must be better.
They say that the country economical on
necessities during the past year and that
the purchase of these necessities can no
longer be delayed
There is the belief that once the pur-
chase of these necessities starts, the result
will be purchasing resumption all along
the line.
In country as great as our own,
with its latent wealth aEd energetic pop
ulation, this is believed to presage a con-
tinuous upward trend of business
The increases in prices of wheat, cot
ton and other agricultural products lends
an encouraging light to the Opinions of the
optimists.
The peSsinists we always have with
US ard their view is always the same
things are bad and the outlook is that they
will get much worse.
Our vote is east with optimists.
