MURDERS

The autumn season of rae
ing is in full swing at beauti-
full Narragansett Park and de-
spite travel restrictions and
and the closed parking lots
the fans indicate that they
want and will patronize this
leading sport if they have to
crawl to the track. Hundreds
of fans are carted to the
grounds from the end of the
bus lines by a score of horse
drawn coaches and take it
from us the old coaches are
bullying at the seams every
be known as one of the most
trip. The track furnishes
the rides free. The fans are
loud in their praise of the
smart appearance of the en-
tire surroundings at Gansett
and track super Jim Linehan
is deserving of a bouquet for
his efforts. Gansett will soon

country and the management
makes every effort to provide
for the comfort of the pa
irons.
The mutuel play is far above
anticipations and if the gas ban
is lifted on September /, there is
no telling what the handle will
soar to. Many new stables of
horses and new jockeys are Civ
ing the fans new thrills over the
Gansett course. The great AL
sab has not found his old speed
as yet but this little matter may
be taken care of when the Gan

Golden California oranges form
q 'iust right" base for the parfait
for they're practically seedless and
are easily sectioned. The naturally
sweet juice Of this fruit helps to
make a tempting sauce which
pleasantly adds to the flavor appeal
of the entire service.
And to top it all of, you1l be
surprised at the perky texture Of
the Lemon Whipped Cream gar
nish. It's sure to please both the
family and friends. To whip light
cream with lemon juice, beat one
cup chilled light cream with two
tablespoons powdered sugar until
frothy. Add one teaspoon lemon
juice and beat until stiff. It is
best to have the bowl and beater
thoroughly chilled for this process.
Note: Cream from the top of a
bottle Of rich fresh milk, which

be used in this same manner.

Stakes Winners To
Benefit Breeders

A special committee of the
Thoroughbred Racing Associa-
tiOns of the United States, Inc.
after studying and discussing
the subject of special awards
for breeders of ThorOughbreds
is recommending to its 33
member racing associations
the following:
THAT racing associations pay
to the breeders of all stakes
winners a minimum of go of
the added money of the stakes.
These awards to be paid to the
breeder if alive and if deceased
to his estate. In the case of
foreign bred horses the award
to be paid to the importer.
Where breeders awards are al
ready established in stakes races
it is not the intent to change ex-
listing awards unless it is so de-
sired by the member track.
1.-THE Committee also believes
in, recommends to the mem
Der tracks the continuance and
development of the principle of
bigger purses for better horses
as a definite benefit to the
breeding industry"
Henry A. Parr, III, vice-presi-
dent of the thoroughbred Rae
ing Association of the United
special committee, explained
the considerations on which the
recommendations are based.
"Our committee, composed of
eight men representing race
tracks ownership and operation
and also breeders and owners of
horses themselves, has been at
work on the problem of breed
erS' awards and purse values for
several months. We have con-
ferred with and obtained infor-
nation from all concerned and
interested in racing activities
and after an exhaustive study
of the entire subject arrived at
the conclusion that breeders
awards should be made to
breeders of stakes winners only.
The committee believes the
adoption of the principle Of
paying bigger purses for better
horses initiated by US, and now
in practice by many racing as
sociations has definitely bene-

SOME HORSE
THE ORIGIN AND EVOLU-
TON OF SPORT is always in
teresting and an advertisement
which appeared in a Durham,
South Africa, newspaper in 1852
reveals the beginnings of the
sport of horse racing in that
section of the world. Here is
the text of the ad in full: "a
challenge to the Word. Barring
neither country or colour, in or
der to give Africanders some
idea of the lasting qualities,
great powers of endurance and
thorough pluck Of old England's

to RUN go MILES and give one
mile start to twenty of the best
Kaffirs that can be procured in
Southern Africa, from Natal to
the Cape of Good Hope. Or will

providing it is not an English
horse, for IL hours; the three
cracks of the Durham Course,

he will again repeat his Hercu-
lean Feat that caused so much
excitement in England of
WALKING 70 MILES A DAY for
sixteen successive days, on the
sands of Africa for the sum of
100 sovereigns. This advertiser
is open also to perform what
Marks failed in, viz, 1000 miles
in 1000 half hours, and will take

Phillips Displays
Paintings by Diego

War paintings BY Julio de Diego
and drawings by Augustus John
comprise the Phillips Memorial Gal
lerys offerings for July, to remain
until the 28th.
Mr.. de Diego's paintings, occupy
ing two galleries on the second floor,
are unexpectedly arresting, imagina-
tive rather than documentary. They
were impelled by the present war,
yet there is nothing in them that
can be specifically identified. One
suspects that the artist must have
pondered all aspects of the war,
that he must have been haunted
by thoughts of masses of men NOV
ing upon each other, of the mon
strous instruments of death they
unleashed, and of the consequent
destruction.
There is strange nightmare
quality about them. One does not
turn ones eyes away from these
paintings; they are not horrible, as
are many photographs and moving
pictures taken of battles, or of
places where the war has passed.
But many sensitive observer will
doubtless feel that the paintings
have distilled some of the bitter
essence Of the present conflict.

Only one book, however, was COM

It's genuine vigor and spiritedness,
it is to be regretted that the poet
did not finish his original plan.
The book deals only with the set
tling of jamestown and Plymouth,
the greater part being given to
jamestown. The brave and the
strong came, the fat and the scared
stayed behind. That is pretty much
Mr.. Benet's line. The brave and the
strong were drawn from all ranks
of men, but If they survived the
terrible christening which the viii
derness gave to its invaders, they
presently became one in being
Americans. They had tie among
themselves much stronger than any
tie which bound them to old Eng
land, or to companies of promoters,
or to crown governments. Inde-
pendence dated from settlement,
though the settlers themselves did
not suspect it.
The orthodox theme is given true
vitality by Mr.. Benet's high-hearted
verse. The reviewer does not gen.
orally yield easily to the spell of
poem that is almost 200 pages long.
No poem that long can escape dull
passages, and dull poetry is a thou
sand times worse than dull prose.
But she read Western Star" in one
long pull without noticing it. She
believes that most people who take

Of the 18th century, which was once

career in Amsterdam, where he
lived all his life, as a historical
painter but gave up this branch
for the more popular still life of the

Reviewing these works. it is i'm
possible not to be impressed by the
amazing diversity which with uni

time they were painted there was
no special stress placed on origin
ality. no talk or thought of self-ex-

and, mastering his art, unconscious

personality. Art has many sides but

the same. That which is fine lasts.
Time and time alone determines
value--merit.
