Father

Used to wonder just why Father
Never had much time for play;
Used to wonder why he'd rather
Work each minute of the day.
Used to wonder why he never
Loafed along the road and
shirked.
Can't recall a time whenever
Father played, while others
worked.
All I knew was when I needed
Shoes, 1 got 'em on the spot;
Everything for which I pleaded,
Somehow, Father always got.
Wondered, season after season,
Why he never took rest.
And that I might be the reason,
That, l never even guessed.
Saw his cheeks were getting
paler,
Didn't understand just why;
Saw his body growing Trailer,
Then, at last, l saw him die
Rest had come, his tasks had end
ed,
Calm was written on his brow;
Fathers life was big and SPLEEN
did
And I understand it now.

Had Mrs Ethel v. Mars not be-
come involved in a trivial dispute
over a trophy, she might still be
more interested in show horses than
in running thoroughbreds. The turf
world would not be toasting the
head of Milky Way Farms as the
big money-winner of '36. But there
was the quarrel, in Kansas City, a
few years back. Mrs. Mars dis
posed of 200 show horses left by her
husband, the late Franklin c. Mars,
when he died in SO.
Mrs. Mars started buying thor
oughbreds in "a, when she picked
up several yearlings, among them
The Fighter, Sangreal, and gray
lllly, Forever Yours Mrs. Mars
always lad a warm spot in her
heart for Forever Yours. When
the filly sprained her ankle slightly
she was retired.
In the Saratoga sales two years
ago, Mrs. Mars purchased 100000
worth of yearlings. She got Reap
ing Reward and Case Ace, which,
between them, accounted for almost
half of the SO Milky Way winnings
of s205, 450.
In the Saratoga sales of last Au-
gust, Mrs Mars continued her ex-
tensive buying, obtaining $4,000
in yearlings. She may turn to
breeding one of these days, but,
for the present, she is content with
the success of her secondhand"
race horses.
Well might she be. Reaping
Reward last season showed enough
in beating Pompoon in the New
England Futurity (mile and one
sixteenth) and in winning the Ken
lucky Jockey Club stakes Zone
mile } to earn the role of favorite
in the Kentucky Derby winter book.
In all. Reaping Reward won five
races in Is trips to the post, but
the colt was slow in developing
and is just the type of thorough
bred that is likely to come through
over the Derby distance. He is
big and strong. His ability to go
the route comes naturally. He was
sired by Sickle.
Case Ace. which cost Mrs. Mars
$4,000, won three stars in four,
including the Arlington Futurity.
The colt suffered an injury in his
Saratoga stall, and was retired for
the season even though the hurt
proved minor. Case Ace is son
of the late Teddy, the sire of Gal
lahad, which gave the turf the line
of Gallant Fox, Omaha and Gran
vile.
Reaping Reward and Case Ace
give Mrs. Mars two of the most
highly favored Kentucky Derby
candidates, SO the boss woman of
Milky Way farms stands good
chance Of winning the blue grass
classic. At least her chances are as
good as anybody's.

Calls Two-Gun Men
Plain 'Four-Flushers

PIERRE, S. d., April 7. The
colorful two-gun man of fiction
doesn't exist, says Capt Burton c.
MoSsman, one of South Dakota S
leading cattle raisers and first
chief of the Arizona Rangers in the
COS.
There's no such animal says
Capt Mossman Il never saw a
man who could shoot at two objects
at the same time with any accu-
racy. Whenever such as hombre
drifted into camp we pegged him
as a four-flusher."
Capt. Mossman owns the Dia-
mond-A ranch near Eagle Butte
which, prior to the advent of barbed
wire, ran upward of $4,000 head of
cattle over more than 100000 acres
of open range. He also has ranches
in New Mexico.

BABY BONDS HERE
POPULAR SELLERS
Great Increase Noted at
Post Office in Past
Six Months

Other cities in Connecticut may
ba proving poor selling areas for
the New Deal Baby Bonds" of
the government, but during the past
six months income from this source
has shown very great increase at
tive Waterbury post office, figures
obtained today from Postmaster
Charles A. Babin disclosed. Con-
nocticut, as whole, is a poor
ground for income from the Baby
Bond" source a report of the fed
eral treasury department shows.
Since the Baby Bonds" went on
sal, March /, 1885, only $185, 675
worth of them have been bought in
the Waterbury post office. The fig
ure for Hartford for the same per-
iod Is $802,84l. Thirty-six states in
IT,, Union exceeded Connecticut
since March 1st, 1885. In sales Of
the bonds Hartford had the larg-
est total for Connecticut but was
exceeded by As larger cities in the
United States. New Haven ranked
next below Hartford In the amount
of sales and, therefore, was 47th
in the country with total of $751;
$50.
Postmaster Babin pointed out that
during the past six months the
amount of sales of the bonds has
picked up daily. One day last week
nine bonds were sold, setting a rec
ord for 24-hour period. The nine
sales we're made in about an hour
and one-half.
Weekly sales at the local post Of
flee now are between $500 and
$1,000 worth Of the bonds. 1t Is
expected that the sale Of the Baby
Bonds" will keep on increasing
here. 1.-THE bonds are growing ip
popularity here" stated Postmaster
Babin this morning.
