Among the numerous characters in
Charles B. Hanfords' new play, "Pri-
vate John Allen" which Manager Sci
pei announces as the attraction at his
theatre on Tuesday night, are two that
are quite familiar to the stage, and
one that it among the Oldest ofr old
friends. The two first mentioned are
those of John Allen himself and the
wicked woman of the play, Bessie
Stokes" To Mr.. Hanford belongs
the credit for exploiting in this produc-
tion a politician, and an adventures
who, while being in accord with the
facts, are out of traditional lines. John
Allen is not the stump-speaking chin
whiskered cheaply smart character
that always comes to mind, but a pat
riot of the highest moral qualities and
intellectual gifts. He is active in pol
itics because he believes in the right
eousness of the local reforms he ad-
vocates, and puts his love of party next
to his love of country and home.

a conscience surprises her quite as
much as it does the audience. She is
more amusing than coarse and awak-
ems geunine sympathy in the pathetic
strains. The familiar character is
that one without which no play OF
southern life would be complete-the

what he wants. Why, the football team
did more to advertise Hope last year
than anything else"
"Perhaps it did" replied Edward
slowly. He was facing really serious
| condition. for the loss of time out Of
his studies was something he did not
| like to face. He was a slow student,
but very conscientious. and it did not
appeal to his sense of fairness that he
should be passed in any department
unless he had actually done the work
| If he went on this six days trip. it
! would mean that he must pay some
one to take his paper unless the foot
ball association would do it. and even
then no amount of money could make
up the loss Of college time.
The team JAIL urged him not to drop
out. The pressure brought to bear was
something which every college boy can
| easily understand.
At last Edward said: II want to do
the right thing Of course. Will you
leave it to the president? If he says
it's all right ard approves of the sched-
ule. I'll CO."
There was a moments hesitation on
the captains part. He was not sure
Of the president. STILL in the short
time he had been at the head Of af-
fairs he had said very little about ath-
letics and had not yet dictated any
thing. Besides. he was popular as a
young man and teacher and had been
present OH the ball field as an inter
ested spectator at the last game.
"All right" said the captain. I'm
agreed" The rest of the team assent
ed, and that afternoon Edward. the
captain and one other member of the
team called at the presidents office.
AS they went in Edward, who knew
the president better than any of the
other students knew him. thought he
knew what his decision would be. And
yet even he was surprised at the in
terview that followed, as the president
welcomed them and sat there facing
them. his kindly but serious look going
quickly from one to another of the
three students.

CHAPTER vi.

The captain started the interview by
saying:
"President Royce, we've come to see
you about the matter of our football
schedule for next weeks trip" Here
the captain rapidly mentioned the
teams and places where Hope college
eleven expected to play. Nov, Mr..
Blake. who is our best player for right
tackle, does not like to take the time
out of the course to be gone the week,
but he has agreed to leave matters. as

he should drop out. it would be Sc
rious loss to us. If the college athletics
are going to be kept up with any en-.

about it."

The nNew womann in Finland. .

II is not usual to think Of Finland
as land Of progressive ideas and up
to-date women, yet 1t has had since
1884 a society for the promotion Of
womans rights that compares favora.
bly, with those in more noted commu-
mites.
The Finnish Women's Association
has its headquarters in Helsingfors,
the capital Of Finland, and has twenty
branches in the country districts. These
associations start schools and classes
for cooking, gardening, needlework,
elementary science and other useful
and interesting branches for women.
There they discuss in formal and in
formal fashion a variety OF topics,
from household matters to advanced
education in the public schools, and
often have sufficient influence to have
their views presented to the Diet by
their representatives.
The central association frequently
sends to the country districts lecturers
on subjects Of Importance or interest.
The lectures are attended generally by
as many men as women, and the men
often take an active part in the discus
sions that follow. The lecturer is
obliged many times to travel miles on
sledges, through deep snow, in snow
storms and cold or to be rowed long
distances in little boats on stormy
lakes, or to walk miles along dusty,
sunny roads on her way to lonely vii
lagos. Her accommodations are usu-
ally Of the most primitive character,
and her audiences likewise, but her
welcome is sure to be cordial, and peo-
pie travel many weary miles 10 hear
