NOTES.

For an unframed team, Maryville
did well going against team which
has been under the eye of so called
professional for four weeks.
With Belk and Hamilton as half
backs and Snyder playing his regular
position at the end, Maryville would
have made more touch-downs.
Belk was undoubtedly the Star of
the Maryville team, but the honors
would have been quite even between
him and Hamilton had the latter play
ed the game out. Nuchols came in as
a close second.
Our boys will probably play the
Chattanooga Athletic Association at
Chattanooga next Saturday. This is
counted one af the strongest teams in
the State but our boys are going to
play the game Of their lives. Hamll-
ton says he will be in condition to
play by that time and as he and Belk
both will be provided with nose pro-
tectors we may look for some fine
runs.
1t seemed for while as ifthere was
to be no game as the set of rules
could not be agreed upon, The old
rules were revised by Yale and Prince
ton and several of the rougher plays
eliminated. Takahashi wanted to
to play by the new rules and the U.
of T. by the old ones, their coach
not having learned the new ones.
Maryville was firm in her decision to
play by the rules in the book and moi
by the rules of The U. of T. coacher
and this was at last agreed to on the
part of U. of 7.
The Maryvllle team was slightly
heavier than the U. of T. but it is
safe to say that there is not more thar
a difference of five pound in the
weight of the two teams, The Knox
vile Journal says our boys weighed
IL lbs. more to the man, which makes
the enormous difference of I32lbs.
OF course they have to find some ex.
cuse for the U. of T. not winning al
their team has been under the direct
ion of so called coach for four week:
at $25 a week, while Maryville hasn
had trainer at all, and as there wa
no excuse except the Incompetence,
of their coach, and the papers did moi
like to acknowledge this, they invent
ed the above pfeposterous story.

1t Pays TO be Trustworthy

Some years ago quiet little boy was
carrying papers for his uncle uewsdealer
and stationer. He was one Of dozen
boys who had routes. and, though younger
and smaller than all the rest, had one Of
the hardest routes His uncle. who did
not show him any more favor than he did
the other boys, noticed that there were
fewer complaints Of Fred than Of the rest.
The Oldest boy had the most important
route. and each Saturday he collected quite
a sum Of money in small amounts, keeping
accounts in a little book He was reh-
able boy. but one day his people moved
away. and he had 10 90. too.
Little Fred was the only boy LETT who
was thoroughly trusty, and he was put at
collecting. Meantime he went To seheol.
and read books that were worth while. and
kept his ears and eyes open.
This went on for several year, From
carrying papers only Fred had grown To
be frst-rate extra hand in the store, and
earned many dollar in busy season. after
school hours One day the officials Of one
Of the city banks wanted boy They
came to Fred 5 uncle and asked him what
sort of business fellow he was.

Origin of the Clydesdales.
From the NIneteenth Century.


The Clydesdales, perhaps the horses
most highly esteemed by farmers, espec-
tally in the hilly countries. are bred in dis
tricts bordering on the Clyde. and owe
their origin to one of the dukes of Hamll-
ton. who crossed some of his best Lanark
mares with stations he imported from
Flanders This breed is conspicuous for
its high courage, activity and endurance
Several years ago the late General Peel
told me how successful he had been in
mating his thoroughbred Toxophylite with
Clvdesdale mares.
when YOU use he said IA thorough
bred for draught mares, always use the
biggest and best you have, and You will
be sure to produce draught horses second
TO none. Horses good as Stockwell are
not too good for my Clydesdales. What |
have bred will 90 on their knees to move
the heaviest loads They won be beat
en-.
This fact proves how benefcially good
cross of fresh blood operates and particu-
larly 50 when the new blood Is obtained
from the thoroughbred-not from inferior
specimens of this breed. but from the very
best-from horses as good as Stockwell.
The Clvdesdale differs from the Shire horse
in that it has long, low back short, fiat
ribs. good, hard legs. and long pasterns.
which would seem to have been derived
from cross with half-bred or thorough
bred horse. This certainly is not a desir-
able conformation. and our Scottish broth
ers have for several years past inoculated
this breed by the introduction Of the best
Shire blood. both male and female. which
has resulted in the production Of animals
with shorter and stronger pastern>. This
breed Is much in request in this country
and the best specimens are readily sold 70
Americans at high figures

Baking and Runaway Horses,
From the Boston Post


There are two evils which everybody
seems to have a remedy for-sore throat
and balky horse Strangely enough no
two remedies are exactly alike, and 1t may
be said that almost without exception none
of them cure
Next to a blizzard, there Is nothing in
this world so absolutely hateful and mean
as balky horse. He Is, above anything
under the sun, producer of Impotence
(and swearing) in man, and yet it is only
by patience that he can be cured. lmpa
thence is what brought on the habit and
by patience is he cured The oldest
remedy is to build fire under the balky
horse or burn his ear, but both Of these
treatments are inhuman and brutal. Ii
would be better to kill the horse. Another
plan. but most harassing one, when
horse balks. Is to make him stand for
hours, just where he stops This mode OF
procedure will not suit the baker at all.
and he is not likely to balk very soon
again. There is nothing a horse hates 50
much as to stand still.
Still. another scheme is to bend the
horse lee, holding the foot close up to the
body Keep it there as long as the horse
can stand on one leg, and then he will
march off in fine style This Is an almost
sure remedy The idea Is to get the
horse to forget that he has baked
But the runaway horse! He is terror

Some Uses of Winter

Winter has Its uses of inculcuable value
Opportunities it brings Of closer domestic
cheer and wider social life that all men
need Hours for reading come that we
cannot command in buster seasons. with
times of leisurely reflection, in which we
may recount the past and forecast the
future New plans are made with farther
reach and higher ends than ever before
Not the least Of winter uses to rs are the
demands it makes upon compassion for the
poor. and the charitable and self denying
aid we give to those in need. This winter
will not be useful and happy season to
any of us unless it make us more unseltish
and we learn how blessed is he that re-
membereth the poor

THE GREATEST ON EARTH

w. j. Hampton in Detroit Free Press.
All hail the power of printers ink,
Which makes a world of people think
That what it touches has new grace
Of character and mind and face;
And that what is of small account
Is magniied to great amount
How easily it reaches down
To depths of nothingneSs and finds crown
Wherewith to fit the brow of what
May be true greatness, may be not
1t has the power to paint bad good.
To people every solitude,
To make thought. straight from the skies
Or otherwise materialize
1t breaches to the millions, and
II makes the stupid understand.
1t puts an edge on what is dull,
1t makes the ugly beautiful.
1t charms the master, wins the slave.
1t cheers the living, decks the grave.
Its language is in prose or verse
And speaks a blessing or curse.
