This is a four-year course in physical education! and athletics primarily intended for the Percy Haughtons/ of the future. i Football taught in a schoolroom is a fact at Hlinois where apple-cheeked freshmen sit in their football togs and} take notes as the coach pictures the thrilling plays of the gridiron. But let a bulletin from the university tell its own story: “When you are a freshman, morning, perhaps, finds you in your old football suit, notebook in front of you, listening to a lecture on fundamentals in football. This particular morning you are learning - the best methods of blocking. After the lecture, during which several questions have been asked by ‘ members of the class, you all go out to the field and put into practice the points which were developed in the classroom. “For the first few days that you executed the practical points which you learned in football, you had some sore muscles, but now you are hard and you relish the exercise. Later on, when the class has covered more of the ground, there will be actual scrimmages against other classes while the coach watches, ready to blow his whistle to stop the play as he points out some mistake. Before you are done with this part of the football course you will have been required to play every position on an eleven. Meanwhile there are quizzes. Perhaps an offensive play will be described and you will be directed to map out the best kind of a defensive lineup.” Theory and practice are in this way combined in the courses in football, baseball, basketball and track and field athletics. First come the fundamentals, then an opportunity to put the theory to work in assisting the coach, then a te chance to play on the varsity team. Illinois is growing a generation of scientific athletes, trained to co-ordinate brain and brawn, muscle and mental activity. The trend of universities is to train their athletes to a high degree of perfection and the Illini are proving what | trained muscle can do. ‘ THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH : Means to lengthen life are now being sought by Johns ‘Hopkins university, which has created the Institute for Bio- logical Research for this purpose. Centuries ago Ponce de Leon sought in vain for the mythical fountain of youth, the magic stream which the ancients believed would prolong the span of life and prevent death. For years he sought but never found. Now comes science, with its wonders, and in a methodical, , quiet, determined manner has set,for its task, that for which | humanity has longed from time immemorial. Scientific research is the big force in modern civilization. It is the force that will eventually make the world a better place to live in and fit humanity better to live in it. The aim of the Johns Hopkins investigators is to prolong , life ‘long after the Biblical “four score and ten.” There is no reason, they say, why people can’t live to be more than 100. : ry REALIZATION California, by means of an extensive and effective ad- | vertising system, has succeeded in attracting residents from all other states in the Union. s ne But, almost imperceptibly, the great exodus is beginning . from the sunkist state. 3 “I am tired of the perpetual sunshine and flowers,” says one traveler who passed through Bismarck on her way to her original state. And another: “I got tired of getting up every morning to see a bright sky. I wanted to speculate what the weather was going to be every day instead of knowing that it was to be fair and warmer.” People are realizing that all is not sunshine that glitters. Even sunny California grows wearisome to one accustomed | to the vagaries of the weather. TOM LAWSON A fortune of $20,000,000 is no small bagatelle, yet Tom Lawson, the prince of merchant princes in his time, died = without a five-cent piece after having amassed that stupen- dous amount. Once the most spectacular figure in the finan- cial world, he left nothing behind him but several books he had written. The man and his riches vanish; his work re- » mains. ROAD HOGS This seems to be the time of the year when the road hog flourishes the most plentifully. : 1 The rdad hog, you know, is the motorist who wants the whole pavement. He likes to drive slowly in the middle of the street, so that anyone behind him has to stay behind, * even if it is ata snail’s pace. eG ; : He also plows ahead regardless at crossings and intersec- tions, and he always makes the other chap take the ditch on 4 a narrow country road. x i _ Since the road hog is too selfish to consider others, the ‘ only remedy would seem to be to ram him with an armored cars. He ought not to be allowed to drive at all. .. The best, or worst, fish story ever heard is that of the fishin an Illinois lake who became addicted to the waste material dumped from an illicit still so that now they are ?! confirmed “scofflaws.”” And still no one has explained why so many marriages take place in the nuptial month of June.

The other night they held a con- test for members in the composition of a limerick, the first line of which was given as “There was a young fellow named Bryan.” Berton Braley won with this effort: “There was a young fellow Bryan, 4 Whose voice was forevermore cryin’: Do you think that my shape Was derived from an ape? Well, I think Charlie Darwin was lyin’.” Immedately thereafter there arose a debate between Sigmund Spaeth and F. Gre, ormerly cross- worders. The matter in dispute was whether the final “g” might be dropped in the words to rhyme with “Bryan,” “lion,” ete. and whether New Yorkese might be employed to make “Siberiay” rhyme with “fur- rier.” The debate continued long, long after the meeting adjourned. named Just as the smount of fuel used gives you an idea of the power of jthe engine, the amount of p der consumed’ by the popula New York indicates the great size of the place.

A considerable group of C After sixteen years, CHURCH MERGER IS RIGHT STEP Timid steps toward the reunion of the Protestant church H. Rowell ‘anadian churches have voted the Church of Scotland and the United Free Church seem nearer union. There are local interdenominational “community churches” in America, and a few practically identical denomi- nations are uniting nationally. Considering that not one church member in ten knows, and fewer care, what were the doctrinal disputes that originally divided these denominations, the movement seems strangely slow. But, consider: haps fast enough. ing human nature, it is per- Doctrinally, there is now room for just two Protestant denominations — Fundamentalist and Modernist. Institu- tional ritualism might add a third. Economically, that is just about the number most com- munities could adequately support. _ } So, practically, in another generation, we may see it done. Turkey and Church Reach Agreement Turkey and the Greek church both save their faces. The expelled Patriarch resigns, and the Turks promise to permit his successor in Constantinople. As the policeman in the old story said, “It’s not that I hate ye that I bate ye, but to show me aut’ority.” Turkey, having shown its authority, can now afford to omit the “hate” and the “bate.” i‘ And the Orthodox Church, having got back its ancient rights, can afford to send a new per- son to exercise them. There is nothing like ingenious words to make compromise accept- able. Tariff May Not Affect Sugar Situation President Coolidge takes advan- tage of the, lowered price of sugar to “postpone action indefinitely” on the three-to-two recommendation of the tariff commission for a reduction of the sugar duty. If the price goes up again, the question may be re- opened. The trouble is that it is not cer- tain that, even if inordinate prices should return, a change in the tariff would reduce them. Our principal outside source of supply is Cuba. where the sugar in- dustry is largely held by Americans, combined more closely than Ameri- can law would permit. If the tariff goes down, their price does not necessarily go down with It is controlled by competition, not between themselves, but between producers, A lowered tariff might not pro- mote Cuban competition. A maintained one might encour- age American production, which is the only real competition. They Have to Study What Is Taught The decision of the Supreme Court in the Oregon school case does not FABLES ON HEALTH mean that each individual parent has the unlimited right to determine which studies his individual child shall take in the public schools. At least, this is the ruling of State Superintendent Will C. Wood, of the California schools, in response to re- quired work in physiology, hygiene and physical culture. Parents who prefer other schools need not send their children to the public schools, but if they do send them, they must take the required work. Any other course would be an- archy and chaos. Why Wait Until a Murder Is Done? Don’t be too sure there is any such thing as a “harmless lunatic.” 4A man who ran away from Okla- homa to escape being put in a sani- tarium, and beat his way to Cali- fornia, being locked up for observa- tion several times along the road, but always released as “harmless,” finally arrived in California’ so tanned that a mischievous boy called out “nigger.” So he shot the boy dead. If these reported facts stand the test of trial, nothing can be done to him except to lock him up in the asylum where he should have been sent in the first place. But what shall we say of a civili- zation that has to wait until some- body is actually murdered? HOW TO GET RID OF FLEAS Fleas are a common pest. They live on dogs, cats, rats, hogs and hu- man beings. In addition to the uncomfortable- vf infecticn. Bubonic plague is carried by fleas. To banish fleas spray the infested places with the following prepara- tion: ~*Put two ounces of oil of bay and four ounces, of ether into a bottle. Into another bottle pour 15 ounces of alcohol and four ounces of oil of eucalyptus. Let these stand for two shaking occasionally, then hours, strain through a piece of cheesecloth into a large bottle. Use this with an atomizer, spraying the localities in the room where the fleas are. Clean the room with carbolic acid water, injecting it into the cracks and ledges, ee] sweeping the floor or carpet with it, and wiping every- thing with @ sponge wrung out of carbolic water. A thorough treatment of the room with naphtha, taking the carpets and upholstered furniture ut of doors and saturating them’ with naphtha, will get rid of fleas. Sometimes @ thorough sweeping, dusting and airing are all that is r quired to rid ‘a room of these pests. ADVENTURE OF THE TWINS BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON “I shall tell you the story pair of old shoes,” said Mi 0 the Story Teller, to the Twins. “Were they magic?” asked Nick. “You may decide for yourselves,” said Mi O’ Mi. i “Once upon a time there were two children who lived with their father in a very poor tenement house in a big city. “Mr. Emerson had once been a soldier and a gentleman, but some way or other he had forgotten that he had ever been a person of impor- tance. He got discouraged after his wife died and he would not work— his clothes got ragged and. soiled and he made no attempt whatever to keep himself shaved and neat. __ “Mary did what she could at keep- ing the place clean, and even Jimmy helped with the washing and ironing and cleaning and cooking-—when there was food in the house. “But often there was no food at all, and at last two ladies came and took the children away. Each was to have a child to clothe and feed and care for, and in return Mary and Jimmy were to help as much as they could with small duties about the house. “But Mary worried and worried, ‘I wonder how Father is getting along,’ she would say to herself. ‘E wonder if he needs me.’ And then, after afew days, she decided to go back. “It happened that on that day she’ was helping Mrs. Hornaby to clean: out cuphosrde, and there was an old pair of shoes of Mr. Hornaby’s to be thrown out, of a ’ Mi, “Pil give them to the rag-man| next time . he Hornaby. “Mary picked ‘the shoes up. ‘Why, they aren't worn out!’ she said. ‘They only need new soles and a little patch on the side. They are quite splendid.’ , “And, indeed, they were so much better than tl hoes she had ever seen her fathe; ar, that it was no wonder she felt so. a “So when she told Mrs. Hornaby that’ she couldn’t stay, but~ would have to go home, she added, ‘May 1 take the shoes along, if you please?” ‘Certain, the good lady, ‘And -here are two dollars for a pres- ent you have been good and worked so hard to please me: If you ever want a home, come back, By tear 7 ‘ “Mary stopped at on the way home. for two h fa whil eing repaired, mn she took ¢ to a boot-black’s snd had them shined, It took nearly \all of her comes,’ said Mrs. shoemaker’s She sat patiently the shoes ‘were ‘ ie took: the shoes. home .to| happened then?” asked “Mr. Emerson put the shoes on,” said Mi ©’ Mi, “and some way they reminded him of the days when he had been a gentleman and had a good home and clothes and every- He comfortable. The next thing he did was to go to an old bureau and fish out a clean collar. Then he shaved. ‘I feel like my old self some way, Mary,’ he said. ‘I'm going out and look for work.’” ““And did he get it?” asked Nick. “Sure, he did,” Mi O° Mi, “and a happier ‘family never lived. Jimmy came back and Mr. Emerson was able after a while to rent a little home with a porch and garden. He never got discouraged after that, but’ kept right on. Now what do you think of the shoes? Were they magic?” “Maybe,” .said Nancy. “But think it was Mary who did it all.” _ (To Be Continued.) (Copyright, 1925, NEA Service, Inc.)
