BA Sc BALL NOTES.

The well-informed and able editor
of the sporting department of Har-
per's Weekly. Casper W. Whitney,
has this to say about professional
ism at Dartmouth and the Univer-
sity of Vermont:
eff there is any truth in the report that
the Dartmouth nine is again to have the
services of Catcher Ranney, the duty of
the other colleges in the New England
(triangular) league, Amherst and Will
Hams, is marked out Enthusiastically for
them. That duty is to enter a dignified
and firm protest against such action on
the part of the Hanover college. 1t is
distasteful, and | hope unwarranted, to
hear the old cry of professionalism
raised, but it must be sounded until
every semblance of evil is removed from
our colleges. There are many college
men who know how the University of
Vermont, or rather the Burlington nine,
was organized, managed and supported
last year, who will not be at all surprised
if it is suggested that the Massachusetts
members Of the triangular league, ex-
anime carefully the credentials of the
men who are to wear the green stockings
next spring. 1t may not be possible to
absolutely prove tHC presence OF prOIeS-
sionalism, but it savors Oft strongly.
1t has come to my knowledge that last
year some members of that nine located
at Burlington spoke quite frankly of
their advantageous situations, and they
cannot blame me for being equally frank
in bringing it all to mind again. In most
cases of this kind, proof in an affidavit
form is quite unattainable, and to check
the curse of amateur athletics, the true
and manly amateur must strike hard
from the shoulder, even though they hit
a friend, or one who needs a scholar
ship or some such aid. If these men
wish to live by their ball playing let them
come out honestly and join the minor
professional orstate leagues; we will all
have the greater respect for them. In the
meantime Dartmouth should guard her
reputation zealously, and Amherst and
Williams should protect that of the
league

AN FRESHMAN

Who overheard an insurance agent explain
ing the merits of the business to his employ
err offered the folio wing bit of advice:
Yes, SIR think it very good, for people
are dying this year that never died before"
There is truth in this and many families
will be left this year without a protector
that never before understood that startling
misfortune.
Many children will be left this year, with
out a father to earn the bread, that never
knew want before. Many wives will be left
this year, without husbands support, that
had before leaned upon a strong right arm.
Think oft Act while in health! Insure
in the State Mutual Life Insurance company
protect your families and if you live to be old
take the cash and protect your old age.
Nothing better. Investigate and see.

VERMONT PERSONALS.

George w. Smith of White River
Junction was reelected one of the
directors of the New York Biscuit
Co., al its annual meeting in Chicago.
This concern has capital of 9,OOO,-
600.
D. NJ. Camp OF Newport has a fine
tribute to the late Editor Earle in
the last number of the Newport Ex-
press. When gold was discovered in
California Mr.. Earle crossed the
plains to the Pacific coast, walking
most of the way. He soon returned
to Vermont and in 1856 he founded
the Irasburg Independent Standard
He also started the Bradford Opinion
and the White River Junction Land
mark. Of his strong convictions Mr.
Camp writes 'Whatever the errors
in judgment or action, in word ut
tered or printed, his motives and
purposes were honest He had the
most supreme contempt for every
thing that was mean and dishonest
he had no sympathy with deceit or
hypocrisy in any form; in all bust
ness transactions he was strictly
honest.

ity is greater today than ever.
Washburn, Crosby Cos. flour is made
by such wonderful and intelligent
machinery, and the wheat used is of
such character, that when the good
housew wife makes a dough from it, it
requires less -four for loaf of bread
than any other flour used. There
fore 1T is cheaper. 1t makes bread
