THE R1SURR ECTION OF THE BIRDS.
Sweet singers have slaughtered.
Where have your spirits flown!
Your plumage gay has passed away,
But you singing on
Poor vronged, winged creatures,
To Lehman you have sped
Her throat-your resurrection.
No longer lie you dead!
We listen you call US.
Through her sweet voice divine,
To spare fedthered brothers,
We worship at your shrine!
Sing on, From heights above US,
Your gospel call is heard.
Each woman Graves forgiveness

the Carlisle Indian football team is plan

team. The team will play az Pasadena,
Cal, on New Years day.
II the Indians could be induced to stop

IL would be a good cnance for the Varsity
team 20 play them, and II the game was
well advertised II would draw like n mus

ties are always passed up. VIII some

reference TO the Carlisle Indian team,
"As u matter OF prosalo fact, these
hard-working and wcll-behaved wards OF
the nation have. been from the start
models OF disciplined and educated con-
duct on the football field as well as on,
and only their shocks of black hair and
their swarthy faces mark them as un-
usual or odd when they line up against
the "pale-faces."
"These lads are intensely fond Of foot
ball, and they have left in them an in
herited Indifference to hurts and tough
ness OF fibre that are their strongest quail

through a hard game, without one call
nearly everyone who has seen them play
must have noticed the fierceness OF their
tacking, and their fashion OF breaking
out OF a sorimmage on the rebound like so
many rubber balls. In running, tackling
and aggressive Undertaking. the Indians
are unsurpassed.
"Their weakness Is an argument In ia
vor OF the claim that football is a ques-
ton OF the trained mind as much as tho
powerful body. II is mental alertness
and adaptahility that the Carlisle players
md themselves lacking when they meet
