ward the car. 'I've got one or two
more things to buy" he decided. and
went into confectioner's. Grand
mother accompanied him and stood
waiting.
II want" he told the proprietor. "a
very nice box of chocolates and pound
of your best tobacco and good pipe"
The proprietor knew what was
meant. The articles were selected and
paid for. He placed Grandmother care
fully in the seat and got in himself.
On the sidewalk in front of the car
q small boy in clean faded blue over
alls came slowly along with very
small dog on the end of leash. The
dog shone like silk in the late after
noon sun. 1t shifted the sidewalk
happily.
The boys eye caught Bryn. He called
out. "You don't want to buy good
dog, do you, mister? This here ones
for sale. Two dollars"
"What is it, cocker spaniel?" Bryn
inquired, regarding the floppy ears, the
water-waved coat, the humping tail.
"Yessir, a real cocker. Amt that a
pretty color?"
"What's the matter with it?'
"Well," the boy told him, dropping
his voice, 'its lady dog. And" con-
fidentially, "you know what they're
like"
ooh. A lady dog. What's her manner"
"Garbo." The boy grinned. "Just
take a look at her. He made little
clucking noise with his tongue. In
stantly the dog sat up, paws crossed
Imply before her, mouth closed, silky
ears dropping, her eyes sad and mourn
full and pleading. Bryn looked. He
began to laugh, silently.
WELL" Bryn decided, she's sold
Here's your money"

Irnpulsive Youth

IN EARLY youth, if we find it
L difficult to control our feelings,
so we find it difficult to vent them
in the presence of others. On the
spring side of twenty if anything
affects us. we rush to lock our
selves up in our room, or get away
into the street or the fields; in
our earlier years we are still the
savages of nature, and we do as
the poor brutes do. The wounded
stag leaves the herd; and if there
is anything on a dogs faithful
heart, he sinks away into a
corner.-Bulwer-Lytton.
The habits Of teachers are the
teachers of habits.

BREvITY SURE
 FIRST CHOICE; ENTRY SECOND
Granville, TenfeI Coupled {; Derby Trials Yesterday
 Show Up Grand Slam

Louisville, Ky, April 29-(UP)- Fourteen positive starters loomed today for the 62nd running of the Kentucy derby on Saturday.
 Brevity remains the favorite, with Granville and Teufel, coupled as an entry, second choice. [. Col. E. R.. Bradley's entry of Bien Joli and Banister probably will be third choice.
 The other positive starters are In- dian Broom, He Did, Gold Seeker, Grand Slam, The Fighter, Merry Pete, Bold Venture, Sangarel and Silas.
 Among the probable starters are Forest Play, coupled with Grand Slam, Count Morse and Silas.
 Two Scratched
 Willis Sharpe Kilmer's Ned Reign and Mrs. B.AB. Widener's Dnieper were declared out yesterday. Ned Reign contracted slipping fever" after his journey from New York and Trainer Pete Coyne, decided not to run Dnieper after he ran fourth in the derby trail.
 He Did's victory in the derby trial yesterday was unimpressive despite the thrilling finish. Jockey Charlie Kurtsinger, who won the derby on Twenty Grand in 1881 in record time, had to go to the bat coming around the stretch turn and just was able to get He Did up to win by @ nose from Sangreal.
 Grand Slanm one of the four horses which received heavy play in the winter books, clearly indi- cated in the trial that he couldn't go the derby route of a mile and 8 quarter. He got out in front in the stretch, but couldn't stay there, and finished third.
 Dark Horse"
 Indian Broom, the vests contend CT, is the favorite of the long-shot players. The colt, @ cast-off from the stable of Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloan, worked @ mile and an eighth yesterday in 1858 the most impress sive workout any of the derby can- didates have shown here. He was eased up the last eighth after do- ing the mile in 1:38 3-5.
 Carnival night is on the derby celebration program tonight. Two score bands will take part in the parade through the narrow streets.

EASTERN CLUBS
 STRONG IN FIRST TEST WITH WEST
Ruffing Won Nice 20 ShutOut for Yankees;
 Athletic Rockies Shine
BY LESLIE AVERY

United Press Staff COrrespondent)
 New York, April 29 - CUP) - The hospitality of Eastern American League baseball teams was in disre- pute today, but the graciousness of national clubs of the west toward their eastern brothers was undebat- able.
 Western clubs fared badly in the seasons first intersectional play yesterday, dropping three out of four games to eastern hosts in the American League and losing the only two National Leaue games played, to invaders from the east.
 The reception accorded the De- troit Tigers by the Washington Senators was the only indication that there might be a trace of man. ners left among the eastern teams of the junior circuit.
 The Senators unreStrainedly bowed down to their Detroit guests 8 to l. Joe Sullivan won his first victory of the season. Hank Green berg and Goose Goslin knocked home runs.
 But the New York Yankees, Bos- ton Red Sox and Philadelphia Athletics were not cordial at all. They made the visiting Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Box and St. Louis Browns feel extremely ill at ease.
 The Yankees let the Indians down as easily as possible by scoring only two runs all afternoon, one a home run by Lou Gehrig, his third of the season. Red Ruffing, was the mean one. He kept the Cleveland boys swinging futilly all afternoon, not letting them convert one of their four hits into a run. The defeat dropped the Indians into a virtual tie with Boston for first place.
 The Red Sox let the Chicagos have 8 lot of fun running around the bases before getting nasty and smothering them Il to 8 under a barrage og 16 basehits including a single, 8 double and home run by Jimmy Foxx, his fifth of the year. Heinie Manush collected triple and three singles in five attempts. Dykes and Kreevich homered for Chicago.
 Connie Mack, usually to be de- pended upon to observe the niceties, let his Athletics push the Browns even further into the cellar. His rookie pitcher, Harry Kelly, let the Browns down with only six hits, one home run by Ike Solters, as he pitched the As to 8 4 to 2 victory. Russ Peters, young third baseman' drove in three of the Athletic runs with a home run and triple.
 Rain forced postponement of the St. Louis Cardinal-New York Giant and Brooklyn Chicago tits but Cin- cinnati and Pittsburgh were most courteous to Boston and Philadel- phia.
 Cincinnati lost to the last place Boston Bees, to 2, although 1t nearly cost second place in league standings. Not 8 complaint was registered against the hurling or Ray Benge until Kiki Cuyler, ap- parently forgetting himself, hit a home run in the sixth. Paul Der ringer was the picture of consider ation, letting the Bees sting him for IA hits.
 The Pittsburgh Pirates played the perfect hosts. After building up a six run lead, they conformed to the wishes of the Philadelphia Phils and succumber g to 2, three pitchers giV- ing up r hits.

DINNER AT WAYSIDE INN

The Rev. Tilghman Smith of
Clayton, addressed the Smyrna
Rotary Club on Experiments in
Government" Mr. Smith said in
part that all government is an ex-
pertinent and any form of govern
ment can be criticised. The early
Greeks were the first to establish
a democracy. This form of gov
ernment has extended to many ma
tions, only to be supplanted by
representative for moi government.
Soon after the World War many
democratic and representative
forms of government were over
thrown and dictatorship form of
government established Commun-
ism in Soviet Russia is another
form of government and has been
established in that nation for sew
enteen years. The Pilgrims began
their business adventures along the
lines of Communism, but after
three years they realized that if
they were to survive every man
must work for himself. Mr.. Smith
concluded his address on govern
ment by stating that American
form of government would endure
and satisfy the American public
for a long time to come.
