Proceeding to work upon his theory, he has extraordinary success in actual play and is now regarded as sure of a place on the British octet. Harris Has a Scheme.

CHICAGO, May 3.—Prayer on the foot ball field was recommended by Tim Lowry, Northwestern University star, in a sermon last night at the Olivet Institute Chérch. Just before a big game last year, Tim said, “we worried a great deal about the outcome, bec so much depended on our winninz. In case of failure the coach might lose his fob. When we saw the big husky players coming toward us we knew something had to be done quickly. “Fellows, I belleve in prayer, T gaid. ‘T've always prayed a short prayer before games, but Now every fellow on the team had better pray for himself.” We won that game. “When the next game came every fellow said, ‘Let's pray again’ You don’t need to think the churches have a copyright on this sort of thing. It belongs to the foot ball field as much as the pulpit. 2015 14th St. N.W. Potomac 1742 BIL FINKEL w oy e the” vest” New Styles—Fust Color Stanley Clothes Shop 1209 Pa. Ave. N.W.

Learning to judge leather. Learning to tan it. Learning to make shoes so a runner or baseball player can put on a new pair and feel easy and comfortable from the first moment. There’s scarcely an athlete who will wear anything but Spalding shoes. Spalding Golf Shoes are made the same way. They are athletic shoes—not just street shoes with spikes or a rubber sole. There’s a powerful difference in the way they feel—soft and pliable from the start. No breaking in. Light, but everlastingly tough. Good looking, too. Most of the work on them is done by hand. Most models sell for $10. That’s because they are sold through Spalding stores—no middleman takes a profit and boosts the price. Drop in and see us. This is a store without ribbons or frills, but it’s comfortable, and we like to take time to get acquainted. We have scores of things that will interest you. Swing the clubs and try a few putts.
