YrS,r about the time when American
girls acquire flrmer muscles and
q finer health by means Of outdoor
athletics, they proceed to drop one Of
the most desirable sports and harp
back again to tennis or take up ping
pong. For golf is not now as fashion,
able as it was. The change is marked
at the Scranton Country club, as else
where over the country. Our pretty
girls who used to play golf in the early
mornings and late afternoons brighten
the links no more with their red jack
cts and white blouses. Now-a- days
they are seen hopping about the tennis
courts and perhaps they do strike more
charming attitudes there, yet on the
whole they aren't as picturesque as
making drives over the fair hillsides
with. the tossing pines for a back
ground. 1t is pity to absorb the golf
girl in the tennis and ping-pong girl.

\ VIEWS OF
Y A WOMAN

THERE was a woman who went to
tea one day. When she came
home that evening her husband,
who was rather more interested in his
wife's affairs than the average asked
politely: did you have good time?"
Perhaps part of his interest was due to
the gown she wore. 1t was IL white
lacy thing and was particularly be-
coming. He knew how much it cost.
too, for he had just paid the bill and he
looked at the dress with additional re-
spect in consequence. Did you have
a good time?" he inquired politely.
His wife had queer expression in
her eyes. "Oh yes" she answered. II
had beautiful time, of course. You
always have "a beautiful time at tea"

marked. Everybody talking at once

queer look in her eyes was still evil

"see here, Mary Ellen" said her hus-
band quietly, something's the matter"
What could be the matter?" replied
Mary Ellen, temporlzing, Nothing
ever happens at a tea, unless Il waiter
spills coffee on your best dress or some-
body introduces 'Sou to your prettiest

the uncomfortable husband. (The only
worse condition than having husband
who never notices anything Is to have
one who notices everything and wants
to turn your soul inside out)
did you over-hear somebody saying
things about you?"
Dear, no." she FASTENED to reply.
'They never say things about you at
tea that they don't mean you to
hear. They daren't. 1t wasn't what
they said about me-" she added, IF they
hadn't said them to me-"

ent location, and 10 call upon all friends
Of Andover and of Congregat tionalism to

festations of good will
The resolutions. which were passed by
an unanimous vote, follow:
Whereas. The dimlnution i'm the num-
ber of theological students is more mark
ed at Andover than in some other semi
naries; and
Whereas. This fact can be accounted
for to n great extent by the controver-
sizes of the last 20 years. by the changes
In the faculty through death and removal
and by the reduction in the teaching
force; and
Whereas, The present location of An
dover Theological Seminary affords free
dom from distraction and opportunity
for reflection and study such must al
ways be attractive TO riany of those pre-
pairing for the ministry: and
Whereas, Two instructors, now In their
first year OF service, haze had no -ade-
quate opportunity for developing what
ever plans they may have for quicken
ing the life OF the seminary;
Resolved. That we as alumni of An
dover Theological Seminary request the
trustees TO increase and strengthen the
teaching force so far as the funds will
allow. and 10 endeavor by all possible
means to restore the seminary to Its for
mer prosperity and leadership without re-
moving II from its time-honored site.
Resolved, That we call upon all friends
of Andover and of Congregationalism to
cooperate i'm securing for the Seminary
such gifts OF money and such commenda-
ton and good will as shall enable II to
finish the first century OF It's existence
