Except a mouse. nothing frightens a
girl so much as finding she can't get INTO
her last years bathing suit.
A girl can always tell how a man
feels by letting him hold her hand.
It's hard for a woman TO understand
how a man can go into store and buy
a couple Of collars without stopping 10
price all the negligee shirts.
Love is blind. but sometimes the light
hurts it's eyes just the same.
If he can look charmed when she
plays ''Btdelia" it is a sign that he
truly loves her
When il comes TO getting a kiss,
theft is better than beEgary.
Unless bathing dresses are very mod
est. they will tell the naked truth.
A woman would rather have a man
tell her everything he docs than do ev-
erything she tells him.
A fellow in love is an awful sight. un-
less you see him in the mirror.

Annapolis Des .rted.

Had an invading army been encamped
in the environs of Annapolis awaiting
q favorable opportunity TO enter the
city and strike destruction to its in
habitants, it could not have produced
greater absence of residents
Every man, woman and child in the
city and vicinity seemed to be inter
ested in the game. Those who were
unable by stress of circumstance Co
attend the game had little desire TO
engage in their daily avocation. Not
one quarter of persons regularly em-
ployed, were at their place of employ
ment. The Naval Academy grounds
and buildings were entirely deserted
and in the city little work was done.
The bulletin board in front of the
Capital Office was hesieged by large
crowd of stay-at- homes and the Cap
ital telephone was kept busy from the
time the game was scheduled to start
until long after it was concluded.
Four trains left the Baltimore q
Annapolis Short Line depot to trans
port the officers and midshipmen and
the general public. They were DECOR
ated in yellow and blue, which fut-
tered in long streamers the full length
of the cars and gave the entire train
pleasing aspect. The ladies of the
Naval Academy and the friends OF
the midshipmen carried huge bouquets
Of chrysanthemums and huge stream
ers of the Navy culors.
The Commandant Of Midshipmen,
Lieutenant Commaner Dewey, Lieu
tenant j. Fl. Reid and Lieutenant J.
r. p. Priugle and the brigade of mid
shipmen left on two special trains.
The first battalion left Annapolis at 8
O'Clock and the second battalion at
8. 10 o'clock One Pullman car was
attached to the first of these two
trains. A train consisting. of six
coaches and one Pullman car, for the
use of the general public and the Ma
val Academy Band, left at z 4S q. m.
The fourth section, consisting Of four
coaches and two Pullman cars. for
the use of the general public, left at

The Niceties of Neighborly In
tercourse.

The man about town was discussing
with friend the overcoming sub
jects of servants aud house rents.
Said this friend:
"Well, my house rent has been raised
and my cook has been persuaded away.
This came about by a prospective
renter going to my landlord and offer
ing an advanced rent for my house.
OF course l had to meet this advance
10 retain the house. My servant was
met on the street by lady 90 who
offered advanced wages, which were
promptly accepted. Isn't it strange
that persons who in other affairs of
life observe all of the niceties of neigh
borly intercourse, at any time rob you
of your house or your servants with
out .compunction. There should be
legislation to punish anyone who will
try to rent your house over your head
or who will take your servant out of
your kitchen. But ladies and gentle
men should observe these amenities
without other law than that of the
golden rule. "

on the next, with Grady back of the
line. Farley made / yard, but the
next two plays did not yield gains and
Howard punted out of bounds on the
Army's 30.yard line Torney made 3
wards through center on the first line
up aud on the next Prince made one.
On this play Grady. the Navy's strong
est line man, was hurt and Woodruff
substituted Mettler was now used
by the Army to carry the ball and
with Prince carried the ball to the
middle of the field in a series of tan
dem plays on tackle.ss Spenser, the
ground gaining half, was hurt at this
point and Bernard substituted.
The Army now began to push the
Navy straight back, using Torney,
Prince and Hill and occasionally
Mettler or Doe, who alternate behind
the line. The ball was thus carried
to the Navy's 30-yard line, where,
luckily, the Army fumbled and the
Navy was saved for the time.
Doherty Runs IS Yards.
Norton was taken out at this point
and Wilcox given chance. The Navy
woke the crowd up at this point by
splendid series of gains that carried
the ball to their opponents 25-yard
line. Doherty began with 3 and Ber-
nard followed with 4 yards. Wilcox
made yards on quarter back run
and Bernard yards more. After
several short runs Doherty got clear
through and was downed safter a 80
yard run on the Army's 25-yard line.
Both Sides PuDting.:
Two plays having failed to gain, the
Navy resorted TO a Equarter- back kick
to hold possession of the ball, but did
not succeed and on the next play, q
fake play, Torney made 10 yards.
After two short gains Torney punted
over the Navy backs and the ball
rolled to the Navy's 81 yard line be-
fore it was recovered. Howard punted
past the middle of the field to Carey,
who was downed in his tracks. The
Army was penalized 10 yards for
illegal interference on the next play.
The game now become a kicking
duel, the exchange giving the Army 10
wards advantage and putting the ball
in their possession near the middle of
the field. Torney made / yard and
then kicked 40 yards to Wilcox, who
ran back 10 yards. Doherty then
made wards and Howard punted 30
wards. Torney returned with a long
kick of 80 yards to the Navy's 25-yard
line and Doherty, failing to gain,
Howard punted to the middle of the
field
The Finish.
Torney made yards and Doe failed
- agin. Torney punted 40 yards and
ii oward made a miserable kick out of
bounds at the Navy's 32-yard line.
Three Erushes by Hill, Prince and Doe

game ended with the ball on the
