HIGH Art Insurance is not guaran- tee That word has gotten to mean nothing It has been so abused-so stretched and warped that all its spirit is departed.
 THERE are no family exits-no back
 doors to our Insurance. We must live up to our pledge. It is so unequivocal -so absolute that the consumer has legal right to satisfaction from us.

\ T would be commercial suicide for us to \ enter into this policy-to place our selves i'll a "cul-de e-sac''-were we not pre- pared to carry out our promises to the last letter of the last word
 ONLY perfect product could give us a V confidence so great as to justify such stand. But there is not a little of riskl Our goods are perfect enough-honest enough-qualitied enough to withstand any test of service.

Indications OF Unusually Good Sport
Along the Potomac and Eastern
Branch.

The cunning season opens on Monday
aezt, ana the prospects are that the
marshes about the Eastern Branch and
along he Potomac viii be more crowded
on the first day than ever before. This
is dus to the fact that Monday is also
Labor Day. which always brings out the
gunnerS in full force. Much care must
be exercised by the gunners in the
marshes this year inasmuch as the
growth Of reeds and wild oats Is so
dense that in places il is impossible to
see twenty yards aheaa.
The indications are that the season
viii be one Of the best in years, as all
conditions are favorable The cool
weather coming SO early in the season
has tended TO drive the reed birds, oTto-
Ian. bIackbirds. and other game South.
and the fine growth OF wild oats which
they feed upon will keep them in this vi
cinity much longer than usual.

pet scheme of segregation OF sexes at
the university OF using political tactics
in carrying his point in the face Of op-
position on the part OF university pro-

The vote of the congregation, taken
Thursday. has aroused the enemies OF
the segregation plan. and they are busy
trying to discover how it came about
that the vote proved to be a complete
reversal Of that taken on June 10.
The Collegiate Alumnae Club OF the
university has taken up the cudgeI once

women are doing all they csn to turn
the tide of almost certain defeat in ia
vor of their beliefs with respect to the
question which has come to be OF para

An unsigned circular letter has been
sent Out charging President Harper with
having used ward tactics ii the last
meeting Of the congregation. Tt is
charged that the president. instead Il

which he had evolved in order 70 make
