The Ethics of Football.

In the November number of the North
American Review, President Charles F.
Thwing of the Western Reserve Uni
versity discusses ''The Ethical Func-
tions of Football" President Thwing
argues that football serves a very i'm
portant function in the moral training
of young men who are passing through
a college curriculum, for a number of
reasons. 1t represents the memorable,
embracing things that must be done at
specific times and places and in specific
ways. 1t is an aggressive game, and
illustrates the value of the positive and
of a compelling interest. 1t further
embodies the process of self-discovery,
being the occasion of revealing to the
player his possession of power or the
lack of it. And it develops self-re-
stralnt and subordination of the indi-
vidual will to the larger purpose of
team work. Says President Thwing:
SIN the building of the character, the
negative has some, but slight, value. 1t
represents the more elementary condi-
tions of the ethical process. The Old
Testament says thou shalt not and
this is well; the New Testament says
thou SHALT and this better 1t is we'll
to adopt as ones ethical rule whatever
is not expressly allowed is denied; it is
better to adopt as ones ethical rule that
whatever is not expressly denied is al
lowed. Life is to be interpreted as
sound, wholesome, righteous, unless
there be evidence to the contrary, and
never is corrupting, base, wrong, unless
there be evidence to the contrary. Such
an Interpretation creates the highest
quantities of health and healthfulness.
Be it said football embodies and en-
forces such an Interpretation. 1t en-
phasizes the aggressive, the forth-put-
ting, the direct, the positive. 1t teens
with the glorious sense Of certainty. 1t
embodies Carlyle's eternal yea 1t
illustrates the science and art of real
ism. It embodies actuality. 1t stands
for the perpendicular. It teaches one
to do. Its commands are condensed into
the command forward 1t bucks, it
pushes, it breaks, it runs, it goes, it goes
through the line, it round the ends, but
it goes"

The Cost of Living.

New YORK, Nov. 6. Dun's Review
to be issued Nov. 9th, will say: The
cost of living per capita, per annum,
has now reached s97.74, the highest
point of the decade, Notwithstanding
the cheapening of many manufactured
goods through improved processes and
the absence of undue imitation in vari-
Gus classes Of products which was con-
spicuous in the spring of 1900, and
brought about the subsequent severe
reaction. No artificial stimulus is re-
sponsible for the present high level of
manufactured goods, and, aside from
some rise in food products due to short,
crops, the present position of the index
number may be attributed to sound
business conditions and full employ
ment of labor at high wages.
"Prior to Nov. 1, the top point during
the past ten years was March Is, 1900,
when the cost of living per capita per
annum was $97.40."

American Ice Co.
win Cut 500. 900 Ton. i'm Maine, thi. winter.

VIII Cut 500, 900 Tons In Maine, this Winter.
News that will be gladly received by
people living along the Kennebec and
Penobscot rivers, and in fact through
out the State generally, is that the
American Ice Co. will cut ice in Maine
this coming winter. The company will
cut 500, 900 tons of ice in the State, and
the greater part will be taken from the
Kennebec river
The cut this year will equal that of
average years in the past. The COM
pany has been repairing it's houses,
getting them into proper shape, and
will be ready for business when the
rivers freeze over.
When no ice was cut on the river,
last winter, it was believed by many
that the American Ice Co. intended
that long time might pass before the
usual activity would be in evidence
about the ice houses along the Kenne-
bee, but the truth of the matter is, as
the Journal learns on very reliable
authority, the American Ice Co. real
lied that it had enough ice in its houses
to supply the demand and that it was
for the companys interest to get the
over and resulting in great damage to
the buildings.
Therefore old ice was shipped from
the houses last summer, and the great
er part of it was got rid of; not all of it,
| however, as George n. Lawrence,
Maine agent for the company, received
| an order, last night, for 5000 tons, re-
suit of the warm weather that has pre-
vailed in the more southern cities.
The demand for Eastern ice is con-
Stantly increasing and it is the best
product in the country. Every year
the demand is greater for Maine ice
and there need be no fears that the
business will pass out of the State.
The company will fill all the best houses
along the Kennebec this winter, and
will also fill the coast houses at North
Boothbay and Wiscasset-
| There are seven houses along the
Penobscot owned by the American Ice
Co. and it is understood that six of
these will be filled. The houses of that
section, like those of the Kennebec, have
been put in thorough repair. Capt.
Frank Dingley manager for the Penob-
scot section, estimates that the COM
pany will pay $4,000 for operations in
that part of the State, in addition to
shipping expenses.
President Shoemaker of New York,
president of the American Ice Co.,
was in Maine the first of last week and
made the statement that the ice sea-
son in Maine promises to be very
busy one. At the present time the
company has very little ice stored
along the Hudson and none on the
Penobscot. Very little remains on the
Kennebec. Men who have depended
largely on the ice business for liveli-
hood may feel that good times are
again at hand.-Kennebec Journal.
