"Jim, you aren't going to—put any
money on these races, are you?" I
whispered anxiously as our car crept
into a long line of motors moving
slowly by the green fences, behind
which was the Hardegrift Motor. Cup
Race was to be run. ,
"It's a great day, Anne, and I ex
aect to have a bully time—so no
lectures," laughed Jim with
boyish sweetness intended to take
vje sting from his words.
I didn't. I had to do a little reso
le winking of both eyes bdfore I
risk opening them on the tur
._ail of the scene about me.
Up a white ribbon of road we
crawled in oui maroon car. And
there, under the direction of uni
formed police, we were suddenly re
leased from the tortuous slowness'
of our approach to the field and
went darting through the green gate J
Into a swarm of tightly packed I
cars.
Overhead airplanes were darting ,
about —dipping and whirling and
circling like giant dragonflies. Every

zing and the warm sunlit air
whistled all about us as it blew
in with a fresh tang from the sea.
It was the first time I had gone
to a great automobile race, and my
heart raced and sang with the won

share my feelings with Jim. But

Carlisle Resident Declares It's Like a
New World to Iler Now
"It looks like a new world to me
nowadays," says Dora Sheldon, of
Carlisle, Pa., "for I am at last able
to wolk in comfort after suffering
such misery for so long.
"For a long time I have been af
flicted with a swelling of my legs.
"I tried this, that and the other
medicine, but none of them did me
a particle of good, and I was in
despair when I read about Tanlac
helping some one who was afflicted
much as I was.
"I began taking Tanlac and In a
few days I noticed that the swell
ing was going down and soon it dis
appeared entirely.
"Now I have no signs of any
swelling and I feel wonderfully im
proved all over."
Tanlac is now being introduced
fcere at Gorgas' Drug Store.
Tanlac is also sold at the Gor
gas Drug Store in the P. R. R. Sta

The genuine Tanlac bears the
name "J. I. Gore Co." on outside

TUESDAY EVENING,
Jim's he had been pushed ahead of
me by the jostling crowd, and I
caught a glimpse of him holding
Evvy In front of him and steering
her by her elbows, so she was free
of the mob that was bruiting about
me as it surged along.
"Alright, Mrs. Jimmy I'm bring
ing up the rear, and Betty's on the
flank," sang out Terry's voice just
as I was ready to get panicky over
the strangeness of it all.
Then Betty's hand found mine,
and together we three came to the
box where Jim and Evy were wtming
and there Sheldon and Neal pres
ently brought Virginia and Phoebe.
There wasn't room for all of us,
| but of course Evvy and Sheldon
i weren't allowed to go to their own
| seats, and again Evvy sat with wide
i blue eyes focussed on my husband,
i and quivering red lips murmuring
to him, while her little right hand
i beat on his arm with determined j
| insistence.
I wondered if the airplane flying
[.overhead caused the wild glint in [
I Jim's eyes—or whether Evvy's words j
had power to move him so.
Then Jim rose and cried reck
lessly: "All right, here's to your I
hunch —the eight-to-one shot!"
And ho darted out of the box.
Evvy smiled complacently, settled j
her furs about her and turned to I
Xeal.
"Jim's gone to put his money up j
on the Yankee kid, Grayson," she I
said. "You'd better chase after a
'bookie,' too, lad"
i But Phoebe laid her hand quietly j
I upon Neal'B coat sleeve, and my
j young brother remarked indifferently j
j that just watching was enough to j
i give him heart disease even with
! out having to worry about his sal
[ ary. Whereupon Phoebe fed him
| a caromel with an absurd little
i material air that made even Vir
ginia laugh, and I had to laugh also,
like one of a chorus. But I did not
laugh again during the long hour
I waited for Jim to return.
At last he came and sank into
the chair beside me, just behind
the one in which Evvy sat. He
leaned forward gripping the top of
her chair and whispered to her. And
now the droning airplanes were I
sinking to the level green at the hot- |
torn of the "bowl," pit-boys and I
repair men were darting about in i
their little dug-outs along the in
ner circle of the track, and the j
grand stand there on one sector of
the irim was leaning forward to a
man watching the giant cars wheel
into place, while the drivers and
mechanicians groomed them as lov
ingly as if they'd been high-strung
race-horses to nuzzle against the
hands that had trained them.
Then the crack of a pistol and
thunder and lightning seemed to
burst upon us, as with popping of ex
hausts and the heavy droning of
engines—the great cars started on
the hundred mile race that would
take them fifty laps around the
deep concave of the track.
When the cars reached the far
side of the field the grandstand rose
and, peering field glasses, shouted
that Wetmore, the favorite, was lead-

nosed ahead of the gray car. Crouch
ing low we saw them whirl by in
that formation again and again—
ten laps—fifteen Wetmore the
Frenchman—the gray car. Back in
the ruck the Yankee kid drove, half
hidden behind the heel of his low
hung cream-colored car.
At the eighteenth lap he had
come to tenth place. At the
twentieth he was eight. Then the
gray car skidded, slowed up, and
panted to the pit edge, where the
repair men jacked it up and all in
a minute or two had put on a new
wheel and jerked off ono with a
flat tire. At the twenty-flfth lap with
the race half over, —the Yankee kid
whirled by in sixth place.
Then Jim loses his hold upon the
top rung of Evvy's chair, and turned
to smile at me. He was wan and
gray. I laid my hand in his and
he crushed it fiercely for a moment.
Then the pressure of his icy fingers
relaxed and he hunched forward
again, hanging over the top of Evvy's
chair. And then like a young demon
that Yankee kid drove by again and
again—annihilating space in the
roar of his throbbing engine and
whirling wheels. He was third. He
was drawing up on the Frenchman
again—and the flag waved for the
last lap—and with a roar the cream
colored car dashed by and out on
the track beyond the tape the win
ner.
Ewy turned and smiled full in
Jim's eyes.
"Did you play for place or to
win?" she cried in a tone that fairly
glittered out in crispness unlike her
usual purring huskiness.
"To win—as you told me. That
was a real hunch, little Ewy. And
now for your reward. Name it!
Nothing's to good for you—partner.
X can't thank you
Jim's voice came in husky gasps;
then it trailed off. His face was
gray arid his mouth twitched. For
all the warmth of the sun which still
rode high he looked cold.
Ewy gave him a slow glance
from eyes that veiled themselves
languorously in closely curtained
lashes. Her voice dripped honey as
she murmured her answer:
"Jimmie-boy, you must take your
little partner to dinner."

18,000 Yanks to Start
For Home in Few Days
London, Nov. 19.—The first Amer
ican troops to depart homeward as
a result of the signing of the armis
tice will be 180,000 men, stationed
in England.
The American Army expects to
start the first shipload of these sol
diers within a week, and to have all
of the 180,000 on their way back I
to the United States ten days later.
Plans for clearing England of
American troops are incomplete, but
it is desired to remove these men
immediately 'as some shipping is
available for this purpose. Most of
the 180,000 men are helping the Brit
ish air force.
Belief is expressed at army head- j
quarters that few Americans will be
left long in England, as it is thought
that the hospitals in France can care
for future needs.

0 MAKING THE MOST OF- A
OUR CHILDREN U
A Series of Plain Talks to
Ray C. Beery, A.8., MJL
President of the Parents Association.
(Copyright, tho Parents Association, inc.)
"Chester Is so peculiar about eat
ing," said "a mother as she started
to put a piece of meat on Chester's
plate. "He won't eat bread—he
won't eat potatoes—about the only
things he will eat are lean meat, pie,
etc."
She didn't need to say any more
she told the whole story In a nut
shell. The very idea of saying this
before Chester is wrong. Why, of
course, Chester doesn't like bread.
Hfs mother said he doesn't. If he
wasn't sure of It before, he cer
tainly 1s now.
Suggestion has a powerful Influ
ence upon behavior. As parents, we
ought to make it our daily ally In
stead of our enemy.
Let us take a case just reported
by a parent.
"I have much trouble with
my little boy three-and-a-half
•ears old at the table. He will
not eat what we set before him.
He will take one mouthful of •
something, and then remember
some toy he wants to play with,
and leave the table, and I can't
get him back. How shall. I man
age him?"
Devote two or three minutes' time
with the boy, just before he sits up
to the table. In playing with him and
co-operating with him in a way to
put him in a very friendly attitude
toward you. Then when you go to
the table, let him understand by
your calm but firm attitude that he
Is to eat what you set before him.
Put before him only a very small
hit at a time and simply expect him
to eat it. So many parents have the
habit of asking the child If he does
n't want this and if he doesn't want
that. But this Is a mistake. Chil
dren of this age do not know what
their bodies need. Very often I find
boys who refuse most anything un
less It Is rich or tastes sweet like
candy.
LITTLE TALKS BY
BE A TRICE FAIRFAX
Common sense is steadily making
its way into the home. In particu
lar, I am thinking of the changes it
has brought about in th 6 average
husband.
Shall I give an instance of what I
mean? The married man of to
day doesn't pretend that he cannot
wash dishes. When it's necessary
for him to help out by doing so,
he cheerfully envelops himself in
an apron, turns on the hot water
faucet and goes to work without
any affectation either of helpless
ness or of being imposed upon.
And to my mind this Is a very
great advance In sensible family
co-operation. I want to help it
along.
The Old-Fashloned Husband
Just recall for a moment, byway
of contrast, the old-fashioned hus
band. Ho flourished, many hundreds
of thousands of him, until a very
few years ago. He had a long list
of virtues, as we all know, but he
was still very much tangled up In
all manner of Inherited notions and
prejudices.
He believed, for Instance, and his
wife never dreamed of questioning
It, that any form of housework
was debasing to masculirio dignity.
This Idea was strengthened by the
associated belief that men were by
nature unfitted to handle mops,
brooms and dishcloths, and that
they were also In these respects un
teachable. I suppose no Individual
man could be blamed for believing
these things. It was simply the
way they were all brought up,
Man's Dignity at Stake
So, when one of them happened
to be In the room where any of
these household arts were being
practised, where a tired, over
worked woman, was eooking or
scrubbing or washing dishes, it was
the old-fashioned husband's prac
tise to look the other way. There
absolutely were no circumstances
In which he would offer to help out.
It was the sort of thing a man
didn't do. And a man's supreme
obligation was to be manlike,
Then somebody Invented a for
njula which certainly protected hus
bands a great deal and may also
have given some Imaginary relief
to overworked wives. It had to do
with what was called the division
of labor In a family, The husband
, But the big trouble with asking
the child what he wants Is that he
takes advantage and gets to think
ing that unless he wants a thing
badly, he doesn't need to take It even
though his parents command it.
Therefore, it is better not to make
it a practice to keep asking the child
what he wants.
Bo especially careful not to seem
to put too much attention on the boy
at meal time. Very many children
are spoiled from this cause. And It
is still worse for a parent or any
adult to make remarks at the table
about what the boy likes or dislikes.
Have an understanding with the
other members of the family that
no one Is to comment upon the
child's behavior either at the table
or between meals. N
If you want him to like bread,
of course, you could use suggestion
to advantage by giving him just a
very little for a few meals and then
starting to tell others In his pres
ence that he is a great bread-eater.
A boy tends to live up to his repu
tation. And you can make use of
this fact just as easily as to let It
work against you, if you use sugges
tion in the right way.
After your boy once gets down
from his chair, do not even allow
him to come back, much less coax
him to come back. Start him in the
rlg.it habits immediately. If he
doesn't get enough to eat before he
leaves, see that he has some nour
ishing food that he especially likes
at the next meal.
Treat this boy as nearly like others
at the table as possible.
Keep him very friendly by playing
with him but maintain an attitude
of deliberate flrptness as to the way
you want him to act at the table.
You may see little progress at first
unless you are a very keen observer,
but this policy consistently carried
out will effectively solve your prob
lem.
earned all the money to support
the family, people said, so it was
only fair that all the work inside
the home, care of the children,
housework, sewing, washing and
other light feminine tasks should
fall to the wife's share.
This sounded plausible, and in
some cases it worked out fairly.
But in many other families the
truth was that the husband worked
his eight or nine hours a day and
then rested, as any of us would pre
fer to do, whereas the wife and
mother was continuously on duty
for twenty-four hours a day and
for three hundred and sixty-five
days in the year. So this kind of
"division of labor" hadn't much to
recommend it, from the woman's
point of view.
I must repeat that these men
were not .monsters of selfishness.
It was simply that they had al
ways looked at things in a blind
way, and nothing in tho world is
harder to overcome than this sort
of blindness. It may be that Borne
of them went fishing and camping
now and then, and during those in
tervals cooked, cleaned and scrub
bed with perfect efficiency. But
such accomplishments as these were
carefully packed away with the
fishing tackle.
Romemberlng all these things, I
feel that a highly important mile
stone was.reached when men first
came to see that they could help
out a tired woman In a bit of house
hold drudgery without suffering
the slightest loss In manly pride
and prestige and all the rest of It.
Domestic Ignorance n Disgrace
I doubt whether any human being
really llkoß to wash dishes, and I
can see no reason why women
should like It any better than men.
But It is cortainly a disgrace for
any adult not to know how to wash
dishes and not to stand ready to do
It whenever, for the moment, that
may seem to be one's Job, And
this Is a husband's Job now and
then In almost every home that I
can think of,
Homes where all the drudgery la
performed by servants are numeri
cally few In proportion to the rest
of the population, And even In that
class of society one hears Idle
women with frightened faces
each other where the servants of
the future are coining from, be
cause the servant supply 1b giving
out. i
But in the bulk of American
homes the work has to be done
without outside help. And there is
usually more of it than one woman
can do alone, particularly if she is
an intelligent mother and takes con
scientious care of her children.
This is what the presdnt day hus
band has come to understand. He
may feel tired at night when the
evening meal is over. But it is a
fairly Bafe guess that his wife is
still fflore tired. So, without stop
ping to-prove this question one way
or the other, he, in a perfectly
cheerful, matter-of-fact way, helps
her get the kitchen In order be
fore either of them sits down to read
the evening paper.
Modern Domestic Partnership
After all, it's so much friendlier
to divide the drudgery, whether
; one's wife is overworked or not.
And it gives two people who are
theoretically domestic partners a
chance to talk things over after a
day's separation. It's a good rem
edy for that habit of domestic
silence that sometimes overtakes
worried men and tired women and
that is such a blight upon family

life and childhood happiness. I be-|
lieve homes are Infinitely happier i
places since husbands and fathers j
agreed to. forget some of their ut-1
terly useless masculine dignity and
to take a share in family life like
sensible, practical human beings.
Then it must be a relief to men
not to have to pretend any longer
that they can't do certain useful
things that women have always
done. It is true that the pretending
hasn't been all on their side. Wom-|
en have had to petend they couldn't
drive nails, which is quite as absurd
as the idea that men cannot wash
dishes. But it is no longer "un
ladylike" for a woman to do any
useful thing she may want to, any
more than it is "unmanly" for a
man to help his wife at home. The
world is really growing up a little.
We are getting rid of ever so many
childishnesses.
Roys Trained to Help Mother
Mothers who have realized for
themselves what I have just been
pointing out are naturally educat
ing their boys in a new way. If a
twelve-year-old girl is expected to
help her mother prepare the vege
tables for dinner, her thirteen-year
old brother is not supposed to sit
still and watch her. He has his
own task, which he takes as a mat
! ter of course. It's Rood for his
I hands to learn dexterity and It is
j good for his soul to learn thought
! fulness and unselfishness and it is
good for the family happiness to
have everybody In It take a share
of the work.
Should men ever help with the i
housework?
Isn't that an extremely old-fash
ioned question? And wouldn't all
the sensible, happy homeß of the
i present day answer it overwhelm
; ingly in the affirmative?
