&crfiith Bullet und Goufied CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING JULY 17th, 1920 10,670 THE YACHT RACE. Aznother effort to try out the merits of the yachts which are contending for the America’s cup will be made today. Thus far either because of accident or. lack of wind it has been impossible to de- termine the relative performances of the racers over the same coursc under simi- lar conditions. So far as it has been ‘possible to judge from the performances the Resolute has made a very favorable showing. This was disclosed in the first race as far as it continued to be a race but what the situation would have been had it been possible to complete the race, with both boats contesting there is noth- ing by which to judge. Likewise during the triangular test with little o¥ no wind the Resolute carried of the honors till the ‘time limit ended the race. From the apparent feeling of disap- pointment expressed by Sir Thomas Lip- ton in the handling of his yaoht it can- not failed to be noted that he is well im- pressed not eomly by the way in which the Resolute is being handled by Captain Adams but that he recognizes the good points of the boat. However, it may be felt that Captain Burton of the Sham- rock has been outmaneuvered it is per- fectly evident that the Shamrock has lost nothing by it, but & ™= mot so certain that it would not have haa everything gone right with the Resolute’s halyards and had vlenty of wind been provided the second day. . Expert opinion seems to be unanimous in the belief that the Resolute has had the advantage of the better skipper up to the present time. That it will continue to receive such skillful handling through- out'is not to be questioned and it only remains to be seen whether as efficient guidance for the Shamrock can be se- cured with Skipper Burton or some oth- er. Inclined though he may have been to make a change in skippers for today, th inadvisability of swapping horses while crossing a stream or establishing a race precedent has apparently caused Sir Thomas to give Captain Burton a chance to redeem himself. We certainly went to see the Shamrock do its best and to see the Jbetter boat win. AUTO STEALING. That a Washington report should dis- tlose information to the effect that a na- tionwide organization has been discov- sred having for its object the stealing and! re-selling of automobiles will cause no surprise to those whose cars have beed stolen and those who have been not- ing the apparently organized manner in whigh very business has been carried on for & considerable period of them. Stealing automobiles, tirés and equip- ment must have resulted in losses run- ning way into the millions and the sit- gatien that has been uncovered in Wash- ington only goes to support the claims t have been made that large estab- lishments were maintained for the pur- pose of making needed changes in stolen cars so that their identification would be Gbliterated and they could be sent to distant points and disnosed of as second hand cars and in fulfillment of the re- juirgments of prospective buyers. Even fhe requirement that there be bills.of sales in all instances where used sars, are dealt in doesn’t impose a very serious obstacle for those who are will- ng to be connected with the theft of an- omobiles or the disposal of stelen ma- chines are not likely to hesitate about piving fake bills of sales. Stealing au- tomobiles has been brazenly carried on. Much valuable property of that kind is iaily left unguarded and unlocked where inyene can get in and drive it off, while machines which are locked and wanted are hot alwaye sufficiently protected for auto thieves are well posted and fully *quipped for doing a successtul job euite 2s much as the fellow who sets out to slow 2 safe. _ With the comstantly increasing evi- denc: against the organized thieves there is not only greater vigilance called for on the part of the owners of cars but * more determined effort on the part of the suthoritfes. The auto thief needs to be given to understand that his business not any more healthful than that of horse stealing. With that impressed up- on them, especially as it Is in some sec- tions of the country, auto stealing would txperience 8 decline. RAILROAD RATES, Just the same as it will soon be known what the result of the appeal of the rail- road employes for an increase in wages will be, it ought not to be long before ‘here will be a decision rendered regard- ing the increase in freight rates sought by the railroads that they may be thus able to meet the heavy requirements that fall upon them and still get a reasonable rate of income themselves, which accord-, ing to the basis upon which the higher rates are being considered is placed at oot over six per cent. 1t is the claim of the roads fhat there is an inerease in revenue needed in order (o meet existing requirements. This means that unless further consideration is given to any increase that may be made in the wages by the raflway la- or board another increase will be neces- sitated for that reason, and that such’ increases ought to be made distinctive in- stead of being joined. N That there will be higher freight charges is to be expected, that they will e is uncertain. The roads must be giv- :n the chance to improve the transporta- tion business and avoid, under private ownership, the going into the hole which was expericaced while under government contrel with the present rates. Whe! it will be necessary to in- creazs B ger rates likewise remains fo be determized although it is intimated that another Baif cent a mile will ‘be re- suired.

IN FULL ACCORE. ‘When the democratic delegates at San Franecisco were struggling to name a candidate to head their ticket there was great fear that there would be selected a man who would stand for the carrying out of the Wilson pelicies and who would #6 impress the nation. For that reason thers was much eppesition to the son- in-law, William G. MeAdoo, and also to Attorney General Palmer. In connection ‘with the mominatien of Governer Cox of Ohio it is frequently pointed out that his selection was fortunate because it meant that he would net be guided by President ‘Wilson. Confidence was placed in this belief because he was the selection of the Murphy-Taggert-Brennan forces which are not sympathetically inclined toward the Wilson influence. But -as things turn out it cannot fail to be realied that even though he was nominated by Tammany he likewise bears the Wilson brand. This is shown as the result of the con- ference which the nominee had with the president Which, aecording to the state- ments issued by eaeh, shows them to be in full accord. ernor Cox has accepted the views of President Wilson regarding the treaty, that the stand he takes is the same fas the president heretofcre took regarding reservations, that the only inference to be gained at the present time is that he jlopposed to those reservations which a majority of the. senate believed to be nec- essary to protect the interests of this country in connection with a league of nations and that-being in accord it is to be expected that Governor Cox's cam- paign will be earried out in keeping with the Wilson directions. This seems to indicate that whatever may have been the desires relative to the selection of 2 candidate who would not be linked up with the present administra- tion they have miscarried. In the plan of the democratic nominee “to give with all my strength what the president has promised” it is evident that the Wilson influence and leadership has not been eliminated and that the effort to get away therefrom has not succeeded. COACH COURTNEY. That Cornell can boast as it does to- day of its wonderful crews is due to the fact that' it has had for a third of a century or so the guidancé of such a trainer in that branch of athletics as Coach Courtney. For many years he was identified with aquatics as a leading oarsman and when his health forced him to abandon such participation he gave his time to the building up of a body of oarsmen at Cornell university which proved as successful as his personal un- dertakings in the years previous. Even when Cornell did ‘not win it al- ways furnished a strong and fighting crew in every event it participated in. It is not probable that Cornell was al- ways provided with better material but rather was it the way in which Coach Courtuey made use of the material, pick- ed out that which was best fitted for the worlk at hand, impressed upon the men the necessity of careful training and forced them to respect the discipline that he set forth that made Cornell put out the stronger and better crews. Coach Courtney was an iron task mas- ter. He forced his crews to toe the line, but he was especially careful to see that they did not bverstrain and.that they were not called upon for greater effort than was warranted by their period of training. Courtney’s success can also be attributed to the fact that he thor- oughly understood - the shells’ and ‘was able to make such changes in them as he believed necessary. Having started in as a carpenter his early training stood him in well and during the more than three decades during which he was actively| engaged in the handling of the Cornell oarsmen he not only established a repu- tation as a coach but placed the Cornell crews among the foremost in the country. A Courtney crew could always be de- pended upon to give an excellent account of itself, and while his influence is well implanted at the institution his passing will mean a serious loss.

One out of every 16 persons in this That means that’ Gov- T da. “You had enough new things to dress a movie. star! Whatever do you mean by that?” - “I've stated it mildly,” insisted Meg, fishing a piece of ice. “I know I had a lot of new things, which meant taking two trunks. Have you eveg spent a whole summer flitting_around with two trunks?’ It's quite a horrid experience. “Mother packed the thinzs for me, you know, and she did it So beautifully that at the first place I stopped the Landers’ house party, I simply couldn’t bear to take out a thing. I did unearth one eve- ning dress, but all the others were so well folded that I knew I'd ruin them if I tried to put them back so I decided to wait. I suppese Jane Landers did think it a bit queer that I wore that gown ev- ery evening—it was the ugliest one I had, but I had to choose ft because it was on top.’ “Well, I got to the inn at the lakes where I was going to stay for two weeks, and something had happened to onme of my_ trunks. It didn’t show up. Of course it was the one that had my spert clothes in it, so T had to pretend that I didm't care for sports and sit around on the veranda in organdies and laces listening to the old ladies’ knit. It would have been all right if Ned Harman hadn’t been there. Ned is awfully athletic, and I fould see that he was disappointed in me but I couldn’t go around the golf links in French heels and satin pumps, could ? “Well, 1 lived through jthat, and the missing trunk arrived the very day I was leaving for Aunt Margaret's. Aunt Margaret is a very old fashioned lady and she detests athletic or masculine Wo- men, so it really was a shame I had 1 2 n y toward the mountains with two trunks full of flimy Summer things and “You see, I'd never been in the moun- tains before, It rained and was go cool that I nearly froze and all the time I was there I had to Wear some of Jane( Dobb’s héavy clothes.

And I liked John Em- ery! “Then I ended my travels with a two wpeks at the Joneses’ summer place, ‘Gray Crest’ Mother had had Gray Crest’ in mind all the time when she let me get so many clothes, and the Jones- es' are awfully stylish and one changes there as often as one breathes. But by that time something was the matter with nearly everything I had. They were mussed from packing and I had torn some of them and lost my best slipper buckles and mashed my dearest leg- horn hat and a boy had spilled punch on my prettiest evening gown, so there wasn't much left, that was fit to wear. “I telegraphed mother to buy me some things and rush them to me and mother thought that I was extravagant. She finally sent them, but they didn’t get there until after I had left, and by the time they could be forwarded to me back here they couldn’t be returned at the shops. “And now one of my trunks is waylaid somewhere between here and Detroit and I haven’t a thing fit to wear and my al- lowance is gone for months to come—" soiled all my ruffy things at the inn and|e “You poor thing!” sympathized her had to wear tailored skirts and tennis shoes while I was with her.

Public Health Service. FEEDING AFTER THE FIRST YEAR. The change from the bottle or breast to table food must be made intelligently if the baby is to continue to grow prop- erly. No child .three years of age or under should ever be fed at the family table, or permitted to have tastes of food other than that which is especially intended for him. To try to feed a Wungj baby at the family table while attempting to partake of a meal is not conducive to a mother's or father’s digestion. It is also unfair to a young child to expect him ‘to sit quietly through the time his elders take for their meal and not want the food he sees them eating. - A simple, safe and satisfactory meth- od of feedjng a young.child, and a prac- tical substitute for the always dangerous high chair is the separate. small table and chair. Where the -house-room space is limited, this small table. may be fast- ened on hinges to the wall so it may be dropped out of the way when not in use. ‘While the mother {s preparing the family meal, the baby may be served just what he ought to have at his own table. In this way, he does not see other foods and will not ask for them. When baby has finished his own meal, he will be con- tent to play or sleep while the family enjoy theirs unhampered by his pres- ence. The small table is an excellent means of training in table manners.When the ¢hidl has learned proper control of him- self at the age of four or five y¢ars, the family will then enjoy his presence at their table. Cut out these feeding suggestions and tack them over the kitchen taple for ref- erence. If you would have a healthy baby do not depart from them except under the doctor’s advice. Diet 12 to 18 months: Four meals a day. Milk from the cup. No bottles, or- dinarily, ter frequently between meals. First meal: 6 a. m—(1) Milk, 8 to'10 ounces, and thick barley water or oat meal jelly 2 ounces; and (2) the juiee of one-half and later of one whole orangs may be given at 9 a. m. Second meai: 10 a. m.—(1) Milk with stale bread or zwieback; or (2) well cooked cereal; oatmeal, pettejohn, crack- ew wheatena with milk. Third meal: 2 p. m.—(1) Chicken, beef or mutton broth with boiled rice or stale bread ; or (2) milk with zwieback or stale bread; and (3) vegetables (thoroughly cooked and mashed through a sieve), peas, carrots, spinach, asparagus, or Mashed potato. Fourth meal: 6'p. m—(1) Milk with stale bread or zwieback; or (2) well cooked cereal with milk. LEYTERS TO THE EDITOR The Sabbath, Mr. Editor: T. L. Crouch is wrong in his letter. He says: “There is no obli- gation on the Christian to abide by rules concerning this day.” Did he not read Isa. 58:13 and John 14:15? The idea is that Christ oy His apostles changed the day. But we find the Bible silent on this point. We find that Christ, Him- self, kept the seventh day Sabbath. Luke 4:16, 31. The early Christians kept it after the crucifixion. Luke 23:56. Paul preached to the Jews and Gentiles on the Sabbati¥ day. Acts 18:4, Acts 13:42. ‘We search in vain for one passage in the Bible of truth which sanctions Sunday, or the first day of the week, observance. The greatest obstacle in the way of the Sunday institution is the law of the ten commandments. Sunday cannot be sup- ported by that law, the fourth precept of which says, “the seventh day is the Sabbath,” and to abolish the law would be to abolish the very foundation of the government of God. The leading - Protestant dnominations agree that fhe ten commandments are still in force. The Baptist Church Manual, Art 12, says: “We believe that the law of God is the eternal and un- changeable rule of His moral govern- ment.” The Methodist Discipline, Art. 6 says: “No Christian whatever is free from the obedience of the commandments which are called moral.” The Presbyterian Confession of Faith, Art. 5, says: “The moral law doth for- ever bind all, as well justified persons as others, to the obedience thereof. Neith. er doth Christ in the gospel in any way dissolve, but much "strenthen, this' obli- gation.” Z Dwight’s Theology, a Presbyterian work, Vol. 4, page 120, says: “The law of God is and must of necessity be unchangeable and eternal” Thus we find three of the great Protestant denominations agreeing that God's law of the ten commandments is “unchangeable,” and yet by their prace tice of keeping Sunday, they virtually as- sert that it has been changed; for sure- ly a change of the Sabbath would in- country owns an automobile and vyet there is surprise at the way the high cost of Nving remains skyhigh.

The Protestants contradict themselves by keeping Sunday, and at the same time profess to be guided by the Bible only. FRANK J. WENISCH. Willimgntic, July 18, 1920.
