Morris tribune., 1894-11-07

by the students on Monday and Tues
day mornings respectively. AS W
belong 10 the number OF student
to whom this applies, we think per
hays we can explain the phenomenon
We can ut least give our opinion
whether it is right or wrong Others
may tell. A student thinks he need
not study Friday night as he
will have all day Saturday in
which to prepare his lessons. When
Saturday comes, some amusements
or other occupation come to take up
his time and the lessons are neglect
ed again. On Sunday, he or she will
probably think it wouldn't be right
ito study" but will perhaps read
some interesting novel, which "of
course" is better. Of course it would
be an easy thing to overcome this
fault if we took little more pains in
distributing our time.
"Education, briefly, is the leading
of human souls to what is best and
making what is best out of them; and
these two objects are always attain
able together, and by the same
means; the training which makes men
happiest in themselves, also makes
| them serviceable to others. Ruskin.
] While we realize the utter useless
ness of attempting to answer our
worthy friend, the proof-reader, mas
much as he "has the last word"
each time, yet we feel that in justice
to ourselves, something should be
said IN reply to the rich, brown
roast we received at the hands of
"proof-reader." As far as that tired
feeling" which he gets in conse-
quence of reading the football notes,
with all due kindness and respect for
age, we will say that we believe this
feeling is chronic state with him,
and as to the Hoods Sarsaparilla
chestnut, we really did not think any
one in the 10Th century of progress
ion would spring such a stale thing
on an enlightened people. OF course
we acknowledge that we make errors
and plenty Of them, though of course
'proof-reader" does not. Now in
ending this little friendly note, we
will say that although we never did
see glasses which could see, we know
of someone who wears glasses through
which he does not always see clearly.
On Saturday afternoon last, the
all Herman football team and the
Morris High School team came to-
gether on the gridiron to try conclu-
sions once again. From the fact that
our team had once defeated this same
aggregation,there was large crowd
present to witness the contest. It is
estimated that there were between
800 and 400 people present,a large
number of whom were from Herman.
There was large showing of the M.
H. S. colors, red maize and purple.
The game was advertised to COM
mence at 3:15 p. M, but as Mr.. Max
we'll objected to one of our players,
the start was delayed until nearly
o'clock. Morris won the toss, taking
the west goal, Herman taking the
ball. Morris got the ball on the kick |
but lost it on the fourth down. Her
man tried to make a gain but failed.
Then Morris again took the ball and
on two long runs round the end,
scored a touchdown, from which |
Stevens kicked a goal. Toward the
close of the first half, on a pretty cris
cross play, Maxwell made a touch
down for Herman, and Edwards |
kicked a goal. Time was called;
Herman 6, Morris 6.
The second half was full of bril-
liant plays but neither side could !
score before time was called, leaving
the score: Herman, 6; Morris, 6.
The Morris team lined up as fol-
lows:
Center rush, John Light;
Left guard, Aleck FUN;
Right guard, Chas. DeKay;
Left tackle, Will Darling;
Right tackle, Frank Hesler;
Left end, John Crandall;
Right end, Wilbur Hill;
Quarter back, George Mcpherson;
Left half, George Darling;
Right half, Fred Hill;
Full back, Bruce Stevens.
Prof. Dewey and Roy Stone acted
as umpire and referee, respectively.
From the fact that one of the Her
man team informed us that they
came down with the expectation of
shutting us out and also running up
large score, our boys feel rather
jubilant It is quite likely that an
other game will be arranged for in
the near future.
Shortly after we came back from
