Considerable interest is being taken
over the city in Libby's newly organ

such organizations are old in many
other communities, it is the first time
such a grouping has been organized in
this city.
If the organization is conducted in
the proper spirit, it ought to be able
TO accomplish no small amount of good
work. The proper spirit mentioned
means an open-minded and willing CO.

UNEMPL OYMENT INSURANCE i
ON THE WAY.

It is admitted on all hands that un- T
employment insurance will be one OF
the most important measures to be
considered by the congress that as
sembles in January It is well for one
to brush uu on this much discussed
policy, for some form of unemployment
insurance is almost certainty.
One of the principal points to be de-
cided is: Shall the workman contribute
to an unemployment insurance fund!
While he is at work shall | per cent OF
his wages be retained and put into
fund that shall later be turned back to
him during periods of unemployment?
Or should the burden be all on the
employer on the reasoning that indus
try is to blame for heavy over-ex-
pansion thus resulting in periods OF
unemployment?
There are two plans that are being
widely studied, the Wisconsin and the
Ohio plans. The Wisconsin plan places
all the burden on the employer on
the ground that the weekly benefit
payment is so small that the worker
in fact stands his full share Under the
Wisconsin plan each employer builds
up his own unemployment fund, al
though it is placed in the states keep
ing. He pays in Q per cent OF his pay
roll at first This is reduced to ! per
cent when the sum accumulated IS
equal to SIS for each workman and
when there is SIS in the fund for each
worker all payments cease.
From this fund, the employee out OF
work can draw not more than slo
weekly for not more than 10 weeks
in any one year The employer is not
liable beyond the amount in the fund.
This plan is really an unemployment
reserve" not unemployment insur-
ance
Under the Ohio plan a state fund is
created into which come payments iron
employers and employees. From this
man out of work can draw out more
than he and the employer have both
put in, drawing upon the accumulated
payments of others who are not out OF
work. The unemployed worker car
draw half of his weekly wage tor
period Of 16 weeks. He is guaranteed
this sum no matter how far short may
fall his and his employers payment:
into the fund This Is, in fact, unem-
ployment insurance.
The student Of this matter shoult
bear in mind that such plans aim onl,
at relieving unemployment during nor
nal conditions. They would completed,
h~eak down during drastic depression
such as the present.
For a number of years the American
Association for Labor Legislation ha
been drafting an american Plan Q

brought to 'this country from
England by Mrs. Thomas

got the mare from her, and has
bred her to Freebooter.
He has a chestnut mare, Silk
Rock, by Half Rock out of SWa-
yet. Out of Silk Rock he has
q chestnut yearling by Free
holder. This yearling should
have a very wonderful future
on account of her blood lines,
which are excellent, and besides
her good breeding, her con-
formation can't be beat. Mr..
Randolph has already had her
over three-foot jumps down on
his farm, and says she goes
well.
Another good 3-year-old bay
colt on this farm is Mint Julep,
out of Mint Clover, by Chatta-
nooga.
Eight or 10 other thorough
breds are in this stable, and
Mr.. Randolph is most enthusi-
astic about good horses and is
especially interested in steeple-
chase and brush horses.
On his way back from the
Kentucky Derby he stopped at
Mr.. Kilmer's place in the Shen-
andoah Valley to see his gray
stallion, that has Just come
over from England. He reports
this stallion as beautiful and
says he is very much like my
favorite show horse, The Grey
Knight. Mr.. Ki1mer has al
ready bred six mares to this
gray stallion that he brought
from England to change the
blood lines in his wonderful
breeding establishment.

final Day Of National Capital Show
Finds Enthusiastic Crowd Out;
Red Tape Scores

The last day of the National
Capital Horse Show had the
best crowd Of the event, max
ing up for the small attend
0nce Of the first two days.
The pony classes Of the
morning were most interesting,
end such good riders as little
Ellie Wood Keith, Margaret
Hin, Stanley Green and scores
Of others, thrilled the crowd
With their achievements.
Mrs. Robert Guggenheim's
horse, Red Tape, carried off
the championship of the show,
quite an honor in view of the
fact they had collected there
some Of the best show horses
] have ever seen.
This great show winner also
won the thoroughbred hunter
class, model hunters, conforma-
tion, hunters sweepstakes and
middle and heavyweight cham
pionships.
Bon Diable, one OF Mrs. John
Hay Whitney's grays, won the
qualified or green middle and
heavyweight, hunters five and
six years old, and ladies hunt
ers classes.
Mrs. Cary Jackson won many
classes with Sand Man, Sand
Den and Captain Lawton.
Col. Sloan Doak won several
blues with Octavia, and there
were many other winners but,
strange to say, my favorite
horse Of them all-The Grey
knight, belonging to Mrs. Jock
whitney and ridden beauti-
fully by her, although making
perfect performances in all the
classes not a blue.
7 have seen this lovely horse
In the ring for five years, and
it is the first show he has ever
been in that he hasn't carried
home a blue, and generally he
has q string of them.
In the hunt teams he came
in for his share of honors,
though, as you could pick no
flaws in The Grey Knight, Two
1eggins and Bon Diable, the
perfect appointments and the
riding Of them.
Model Man, Roland Dawson's
lovely pony. won the saddle
class, ridden by Paulina Long
worth. The Horsemanship
trophy was won by Stanley
Green, with second place going
to Robert Palmer, third to Mar.

a most successful horse show,
and was very well run by the
efficient manager, Hubert r..
Quinter, and the courteous COM
naittee.
