HOW THE SUCCESSFUL
PLAYS ARE WRITTEN

Much has been said regarding the
methods by which writers of fiction
evolve their novels. but, curiously. lit.

equal intcrest-'the tricks and methods

Mr.. Chambers has no difficulty In

In hand he works at II every day, quite

touching his pen until the evening,
which he finds TO be his best working

He Is in the happy position of being
able to write exactly what he pleases
and never to order. He never dictates
plays, nor will he allow anyone TO
come near him when he is writing. AS
for his ideas, they come to him at all
times and places, and are jotted down
on hundreds Of scraps OF paper, with
which his pockets are stuffed. When
the play is ripe for writing he produces
all these countless literary frag'
ments, and from them evolves one OF
his delightful and brilliant plays

Lesson !.
The essential qualifications for
players Of feetball are strength, cum
ming and homicidal mania. The
coach should first select his candi-
didates, after carefully considering a
list of their past performances. He
should then turn them loose In a
large lot and permit the law OF the
survival of the toughest to weed out
the undesirable players.
Practice should begin with light
Eases of mayhem and gradually be-
come more severe, the players being
carefully instructed I'm assault and
battery. assault with intent to MAIN,
assault with intent to kill, and so on,
through various degrees, to man
slaughter.
Cunning should be developed espe'
clally, as cunning is required to COM
nit manslaughter without being seen
By the referee or umpire.
In the next lesson will take up the
subject Of proving alibls when ac-
cused OF killing one of the rival team
and deal i'm detail with each position.

Lesson 1.-THE Center Rush.

The qualifications Of the center
rush are beef thick skull and good
teeth. Any man with the Instincts
of bulldog and qualified to kill steers
at the stockyards would make a good
center rush.
Some centers stand with one foot
behind the other, some on booth feet,
but the best stand with both feet on
the opposing players neck. The cen.
ter starts the play He should snap
the ball quickly with one hand, while
with the other he craftily twists the
ear of his opponent. He should then
lunge forward, raise his head sharp.
ly. and butt his opponent on the nose
guard.
When playing on defensive he
should use his head as battering
ram. II his opponent plays low he
should reach over and bite him. II
his teeth are good he can hold his OPP
ponent and at the same time wave
both arms to show the umpire that
his opponent is holding. When a
man Is bit hard in the arm, he usual
ly grabs the man who bit him. This
gives the center chance to wave
both arms and attract the officials
notice and II often results In gaining
ten yards because the other man is
holding.

Lesson iv-The. Full Back.

Lesson lV-The. Full Back.
The full back is in no way related
to the straight front. In modern feet
ball the full back is the murderer of
last resort. When all others have
failed In their efforts to mutilate or
kill the runner. II is the duty OF the
full back to put him hors de combat.
In stopping runner the full back
should plant himself squarely in front
of him and dive through him. trying
to make his head meet the runner SO
as to produce both stomach ache and
lumbago.
In defence the full back must solve
all problems of direct contact. Begin
nels should practice breaking legs.
Even an amateur will find that, by
dropping his knee on a PROSTATE foe
and at the same time jerking his leg
sharply. holding the man by the an
kle he can either break or dislocate
a leg.
In attack the full back must do a
big share of the line plunging. The
best full backs have V-shaped heads;
capable of penetrating an opponent.

their names imply.

Lesson vII-The Cheer Master.

Lesson Vll--The Cheer Master.
The cheer master Is the fellow who
causes the old grads to look at each
other and say. Were we ever like
that?' In appearance the cheer mas
ter resembles the front of box at the
horse show. As to hair. he must look
like an Anarchist deprived of beer.
The uninitiated may recognize the
cheer master at a glance. He Is the
chap that helps the captain peel off
his sweater, pats him on the shout

tain has forgotten his two flunks and

gives an imitation of a Plymouth
Rock rooster tapping its wings, and
as his arms move up and down the
Kankakee chorus in the seats in
front of him yelps. This is reepated
until the human beings move away
from the freshmen.
Meantime the rival cheer master
has been conducting a rival asylum.
The cheer master is supposed to make
his Gughouse orchestra drown out the
other. This is difficult when the
score is 0 to SS, and most of the
members of the chorus are wondering
whether the governor will stand for
another touch to replace the IS bet
lost. The cheer master who can keep
the noise going under these circum.
stances deserves better than to hear
the remarks that are made about him
Ivy non.collegians as they are leaving
the grounds.

MINING RAINBOW
WOOD AT S22 A CORD

To Maine farmer must be given
the credit of starting a brand new in.
dustry on his land-that of mining"
woodland he bids fair to make for
tune out OF It.
The collecting of what is known up
In Maine as rainbow" wood is com.
paratively new industry there. But
this farmer has actually discovered
deposits of the stuff. Though the
dwellers along the seaboard had
known for years that driftwood piled
up from salt water gave out iridescent
tints when burned in open CRATES,
? they attached no value to the coloring
of the flames until the rich summer
visitors came down East and chang
ed the picking of driftwood from an
occupation akin to idleness into a
profitable calling.
For Ave years the whole coast line
of Penobscot Bay has been secured
In quest Of wood, and when the sup
ply grew scarce and the prices ad
vanced from $40 to s25 cord, Bos'
ton chemist grew rich from inventing
a powder which. when burned with
dry wood. yielded colors nearly as
bright as the genuine wood from the
sea.
This fall, Emery Bowden, farmer
who had sold considerable driftwood
In former years, went to the salt
meadows at the foot of his field and
began to dig his years supply OF
muck, which was used as bedding for
his stock and for house-banking
When he had eXcayated hole about
ten feet deep he came to a flooring OF
great pine trees which had been i'm
bedded In the peat for ages.
The limbs had rotted away and the
bark and sapwood had gone, but the
dry heart of the trees was as sound
as In life. Kindling a fire about a log
of this wood Bowden found that IL
gave out very brilliant hues of indigo
and green, showing that the aged
wood was filled with salts OF iCiline
and chlorine.
No sooner had he made this dlscov
cry tnhn ne stopped ulBglhB nucf
and went to mining rainbow wood
He loaded schooner with cut wooC
and sent II to his Boston patrons, who
paid him s22 cord for the cargo ant

Since then Bowden has hired al

forest and selling them at fancy fig
ures. The deposit of pine trees lie

never made the first team. II the sub
stitute has played on the team and
been displaced, he must call attention
to how much better he could have
done It.
When the team is winning all the
substitute has to do is to cheer. When
the score is to AZ he sits around
