Arthur Varley and Members of Taftville Congregational Chdir Bring Cheer to Sheltering Arms—Guests Enjoy Prospect From Bellevue Farm Rev. Arthur Varley and members of the choir of Taftville Congregational church were at the Sheltering Arms for the Sunday afternoon service. A most helpful address was given from the text, Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that pro- ceedetk out of the mouth of the Fath- er. These words_ were spoken _ by: Christ, Rev. Mr.- Varley sald, in ‘an- swer to the temptation to turn stones into bread. By His answer Christ in timated the powers of soul that could not_be used for one’s own glory or profit. There are certain faculties that it is a sin to commercialize; still all through the vears we have been irying to live by bread alone, in com- mercial, in social, in educational ways. It is bard weork to get anyone to do anything unless /there is.a dollar at the end of it. We are actually guil- ty of sin in these things, . W are tempted by- the nearness of the reality. ‘'Who does not wish that he had more 2 better house, more to do Then we begin to be envious of others. About all our interests to- day are expressed in terms of bread and money growing out of the terrible war in Europe, until we feel that bread and money are all there is. Here again is_the pressurs of the material. We should turn to the higher, finer things that cannot be expressed in these terms. The invisible wealth of the world is infinitely bevond its vis- ible wealth. But the higher things are not determined by “pull” or position. If we are content to live by bread alone we shall be stranded on the shores of eternity, starved and stunted souls. But in good measure we may have the best, not according to place, color or position. = . What are these things? One is the fellowship with great minds past and present, which we get from choice hooks. ' These are free as air. Anoth- er is the sweetness of real friendship that lasts, that doesn't shift, that hopeth, endureth all things, that neger faileth because it is born of the spir- ityal. The richness of genuine love, that love that sets us in families, that hinds us in constant interests, that love that knits souls together for all time; we can all enjoy this, it is spir- itual. Then there is the conscious- ness of God's presence. There isn't a moment of the day when we may not feel this. Realizing _these higher, finer things, we truly begin to live. Miss_Nellie Howie was at the pi no. Familiar hymns were sung, closing with, O Love That. Wilt Not Let Me Go. Miss Jenniz Kendall gave .most sympathetically the solo, There’s a Beautiful Land on High, and Miss Hazel Banfield a_pleasing rendering of the solo, In the Land of Fadeless Day. The duet.

THE TREND | N FOOTBALL - Football Has Made More Progress This Fall Than at Any Other Time, Says Sol Metzger—Abolition of Training Table Has No Il Effect on the Sport—There Will be No All-American Team This Season. —_— BY SOL METZGER, Coach Washington and Jefferson Foot- ball Team. Football has made more progress this fall than at any time in- many vears. Although there are not quite as many college teams playing as in pre- vious years, more men are participat- ing in the game than ever before. This is due to the fact that football has met with approval in the various army and pavy.camps and that more attention is being given it by various undergradu- ate organizations in those universities which have abandoned varsity football during the period of the war. Another point which has helped foot- vall in various sections is the absence, in the east, of Harvard, Princeton and Yale from the fall schedule. While this has unquestionably caused a lzck of interest in the game in some of the largest eastern cities, it has forced all followers of the sport to look else- where for their fun. They have been surprised in finding the game played at other institutions on as high 2 plane as it is customarily playes by e Big Three. Indeed, this season has proven that no set of colleges enjoys a supremacy in football. The game is much the same and is played as w#ll in one section as another. Coaches of western and southern teams have pretty well proven they know as muich football as eastern-coaches. Fact is, this year, they have gone a little far- ther. The. war has made footbalt democratic. It has broken down the ne or distincticn, or caste, that htd caused some to believe that the spcet is_highest developed in one section. We have learned much this season that we have rever known before. I Take the training table, for example. Two years ago an eastern coach would have held up his hands in horror had he been forced to train his men with- out a training table. At that time, when coaching the West Virginia team, I pwposed the abolition of the training table and was overruled. I saw no reason for it and never comld see the point that it brought the play- ers together-and built up an esprit de corps otherwise impossible. The train ing table ,to my mind, made the play ors take the sport too seriously and it smacked too much of professionalism. This year, due to the recommenda- tions of the National Collegiate Ath- letic association, W. & J. jolned the largé majority in abandoning _the training table. All sorts of football catastrophes were predicted as a re- sult.. But we have so far succeeded in weathering all storms and in our one big game to date—with Penn_ State— found ourselves, as a team, pretty well able to go the iimit on endurance. Doing away with the training table kas had more far-reaching -resulis than was supposed. It has put the matter of taking care of one's self up to each individual and the players have been forced to solve this problem themselves. This has been a vaMable lesson to them. And it has very clear- ly drawn the line between the players Who had their heart and soul in .the work of making the team a success and those who viewed the season in another light. After two months it is not difficult for the coach to separate the consclenticus _candidates from those not caring about anything but their own success in mdking the team. It has not been a_pleasant method of training for the boy who wanted to R e e — T —— TS e MARKET WAS DEPRESSED Local Liquidation Was Augmented ‘by Selling From the Interior. . New York, Nov. 5.—The week in the stock market opened with another violent upheaval, representative shares adding 8 to 7 points to their recent shrinkage. Shares of less infrinsic ‘value lost even more, the reversal in isolated isswes extendiag to -ten points. Local liquidation was augmented by an accumulation of week-end selling from the interior. prompted, in all probability, by the enforced necessi- ties of investors and the more pre- carious position of speculatite inter- ests. Quotations reached lowest levels at midday, the market evincing extreme | weakness on news of a further re- versal to the Italian forces. Rails of | the better class vielded 3 to 5 point: Reading falling six and Great North ern 6 3-4. In general, these reces- sions implied minimums for periods of 5 to 20 years, while St. Paul com- mon and preferred sold at lowest qu tations in their lonx history as di dend payers-at 38 and 75 1-2, resp: tively. United States Steel supplemented last week’s severe setback by a fur- ther decline of 4 3-4 to 90 7-8, its lowest of the year, to the accompani- ment of offerings that fairly taxed the capacity of the market. Independent Steels vielded 3 to 5 points and al- Iied_equipmenis and-coppers as much, while ofls, leathers, sugars and the many war-supply stocks broke 3 to 7. Rallies of 2 to 5 points in the final hour were attributed to the statement of a high treasury official. advocating a prompt and material advance of rates to the railroads of the country. Shqrt covering also accounted in a measure for the partial recovery. Sales amounted to 1,150,000 shares. The entire bond list weakened on more diversified offerings. Liberty 4's sold at par to 100.02, the 3 1-2's yield- ing from 99.74 to 99.56. Total sales of bonds (par value) aggregated $5. 250,000. U.

The method of tackling which s both brutal and unnecessary is _the use of the knee in sliding into a run- rer who is being thrown or has been ti.rown.

We have neté hurt on our fleld in the In one game this fall we had several hurt by knee tacklers. A rvle preventing such a measure, which kas all the earmarks of German kultur, is not only necessary but must be en- fereed. There is another kind of unneces- sary roughness which must be elimi- nated. This is the method employed by too many teams in breaking up a fcrward pass. The back passing a ball s as heipless wken he delivers it as is the punter, yet the latter is protected rom even being touched by the oppo- ition, whereas the former is constant- 1y Tc be sure, such a scheme of defense will either put the plaver out of the game who makes the pass or so. upset a good pas: ctices suci methods. as a way of winning game siould not schedule contests with the 1rst team of a rival college.
