n. II. S. II, Town 2.

The r. II. s. football team took revenge
/ on the Town boys Friday afternoon, trim
ming them u TO 2. The latter, though
numbering some good old players, were
.soft," and without practise, and were
fairly outplayed by the lighter and better
.-ained r. u. ;. boys.
Town kicked of. After few line plays
and a couple OF exchanges on downs, Grant
punted. The ball rolled across the X. III.
/ s. line. Goodhart snatched it up and tried
/ to advance IL, but was thrown back for a
safety. Town scored 2.
On almost the next lineup, on a center
play, while the mass OF arms, legs and
bodies were revolving about, Jerd broke
through and ran unimpeded to the Town
goal. There was a question about the
play. forward pass being claimed, but
the points were allowed 10 II. II. 5. and
the score stood II. II. 5. @, Town 2, at the
close of the first half.
At the beginning of the second half,
Fairbanks, aided by good interference,
made a long run around Towns right end,
bringing the ball within two yards Of the
latteris line. On the next play Holman
carried ii over and Goodhart kicked goal.
K. II. 5. u, Town 2. This ended the scor-
ing.
The Town team were penalized once 20
yds. for quarterback run when they had
a good chance to score.
For X. II. 5, Fairbanks, Goodhart and
Morton handled themselves and the ball
we'll. The superior weight OF the Town
men did not count heavily in the line
against their sprightly opponents. Grant
and Hayward played well for the Town
team.

The Worlds Work for AUGUST.

The August Worlds Work is the annual
educational number containing a remark
able series at articles treating concretely
the most important educational prob
lens of the day. Three vital problems
of common school education are discuss
ed by experts and pointed with specific
stories. Professor NJ V. O'Shea in THE

how medical examination is helping de-
fective children; Mr.. C. II Poe in Farmer
Children Need Farmer Studies sets forth
advantage gained by giving country
children the training they need; and DIR.
William j. Shearer relates his success in
regarding schools SO as to keep children
of equal ability always together. Pro-
lessor Frederick J. Turner details in
Democratic Education in the Middle
West" what is probably the best educa-
tional system in the world. Henry D.
Sedgwick, Jr's., Pope Leo NIP is the
most important of the articles on gen.
eral subjects, as it is an able and sympa-
thetic study of Pope Leo and the tremen-
dous influence he has had on the Roman
Catholic Church. Other interesting things
in this number are William English
Walling's narration of new chapter in
labor history in "The Building Trades
Employers and the Unions;" Major
Charles T. Boyd's explanation of how
soldiers are taught to shoot. and W. B.
Thornton's strikingly illustrated article
on "The Revolution by Farm Machinery"
and the methods of modern farming
The monthly financial article treats the
timely subject how banks make >their
profits and the departments '"The March

FaIIacy About Ngiht Air.

An exchange says this about the
belief that night air is injurious to
persons:
One OF the bugbears of old time
people is night air, and there is little
exaggeration in saying that the sup
erstition against night air has killed
more people than the free circulation
OF it has everiniured. There is album
dance of proof that night air is in
furious to none On the contrary,
people who sleep out doors under the
mere protection of a tent are the
healthiest of all people, and the prac-
tice has largely gained in popularity
of late years under wider knowledge
Of hygiene for people in delicate
health to go in camping parties and
breathe the balsam of the night air.
The vigor gained from d few weeks Of
such an outing is a marked proof
that the old prejudice against night
air is as foolish as most other old
wives whims.
