REAL HEROES OF OUR DAY I'moii Who Ue B.ItlBC la Brti Ksrjapllfr Moral s4 Pbral I call CrsiST. It takes a bravo person to so tugsy riding taeso dsys. It takes mental cour- asro to want to go, financial courage to attempt it, and bota moral and physical Courage 'actually to .get started.' - The neighbor make remarks about you as you start away, or at least yo-,fel that they are making them, and everybody you meet looks at you as though they suspeyted that you wero just doing It to b smart. Of course, the automobiles are Indignant and snort along behind you ana dash past you. and Jump around corners at you, but that was ao more than yon had exported, and you hurry away to the unfrequented roads as quickly as your livery stable horso will take you. There you . feel sure you will find congenial company among; the country boys and girls who can Still' afford to go buggy riding every Sunday, and who appreciate the sweetness .of the quaint rall-fenoed crossroads. You are mistaken. There are ao country boys and girls la barrow buggies. You passed them ail at the howling amusement park a while ago. You have the quiet road and the tajl wt-eds and the sun and the shadows and the silent Joy of tbs fields all to your self until a huge, big-headed machine rips up the road all about you and lunges past The Joka is on you. The driver thinks that you are the country sweethearts, and turns to grin at you. You have the ua frequonte4 roads atl to yourself until you are discovered by the mosquitoes and the horse files. How those creatures thrive so well witb so few horses and people to eat might be an interesting solentlflo study, but neither you nor your horse care to be experimented on. And the fly net will not stay en. You tie it here and 'there and it cooies off again and again. The horse stops to kick off the files and more files get on. It Is a question of being chased by automobiles or being de voured by Insects, and, of course, you resign yourself to tha automobiles and trot home amidst the dust of the ordi nary sensible people who rde hi automo biles and whose only ambition sanui to be to cover as much road Im as short a time as possible.
