It has been an active base ball. The regulation “break’ came just as The Herald predicted. After the games are finished most of the people interested and erigaged in that particular, sport will sit around the fire and will “talk it ‘over.” Now comes the news that Chicago— and the cold is most intense there— has been chosen for the international ice skating championship of the world, which usually has been settled at Lake Placid or Saranac Lake. And in Chi- cago, too, will be staged the first na- tlonal ice skating and hockey tourna- ment. An inter-collegiate contest is to be settled in about the same time. There will be a lot of good horses at the Empire City, beginning next ‘Monday. All the big stables new racing on the New York tracks will remain wuntil the end of the Yonkers meeting. They are planning in campaigns, Maryland, and will ship just after the close at Empire City for the meeting that begins at Pimlico in November. ‘Where there is sport carried on in & big scale, thert are smiles, and there is work. Smiles are needed. ‘Work is needed. Sport is needed. More often than not all three go together—let them. When the people are interested in things other than their own troubles, so much the better. If you can't be a sportsman, be a worker. If you can't be a worker, be a sport about it after doing everything you can—and what man has done man can do. ' But at any rate you can smile. That smile will make you no less a sports- man, no less the successful seeker efter work—no less the worker— so smile about it and use a bit of Thomas * Edison’s “grit.” ‘WELFARE ASSOCIATION. Another of the great organizations !or’ which New Britain may well feel proud, is the Welfare asso- elation. The report for the past year, as told by executive secretary Cora M. Beale appeared in yester- day’'s Herald, and is well worth read- _ Ing carefully. Miss Beale accentuates the fact that the social worker becomes the “friend . of the family, and has discovered that NEW BRITAIN DAJILY HERALD FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, “JEST RUMINATIN".” (Rgbert Russell.)

You might call the present one a peace of paper. Secret orders are harmless if they don't try to give orders. But when the meek inherit the earth, will they stay that way? The world will get on its feet when it becomes an armless wonder. A nounce of prevention is also easier to get than a pound of cure. When they are dressed, it is hard tell an old hen from a chicken. This is a poultry item, not a fashion note. De Valera appears to have star‘ed something he can’t sinn Feinnish. Wine does not appeal to the typi- cal American. Nor, for that matter, does whine. Fortunately, however, the broad way that leads to destruction isn't a one-way street. The tariff act doesn’t figire on the billboards, but it may figure in the board bills. That knocking you hear in the in- dustrial machine calls for a liberal ap- plication of elbow grease. During the football season, the three “R’s” of our education system are Root and Raw Raw. No face cream so far invented is quite so good for the compexion as elbow grease. There is something in the smell of wood-alcohol bootleg that closely re- sembles an air of finality. Men soon become accustomed to any kifid of feminine style. They first endure, then pity, then embrace. l When the murderer pleads insanity and is acquitted, no one denies that he was tried by a jury of his peers! When the frost is on the pumpkin and the fodder’s in the shock, one'’s thoughts turn to the overcoat long since put in hock.
