Foot Ball Brutal

The sentiments of all Princeton
students and graduates have been
voiced in The Alumni Weekly" "
which congratulates President
Roosevelt on his plan Of cleaning
up college athletics. The editorial
says:
To almost every one but a few of
those entangled in the dominant
theory and practice of the game
itself, it has been plain for some
time that unless football is radically
reformed this great American col
lege sport is doomed.
The evils of the present form and
practice Of football are known to
every one who has followed the
games in recent years and whose
vision is not obscured by that init
mate participation which makes
politicians, for instance. proverbi
ally blind to the signs of the times,
heedfully deaf to popular demand
and blissfully iguorant of an inn
pending crisis. A more fatal in
dictment of the recent development
of the game is not needed to EN-
force the demand for reform than
the following remarks from "The
Daily Princetonian." the under
graduate sheet:
Football as played among tine
colleges today has reached a stage
where it is losing its element of
sport and it is becoming work of
the hardest kind. The men on the
squad are willing and determined
to bend all their energies to make
this work count for success"
In other words, football is not
play, it is work; football is not
sport, it is business; the players do
net enjoy the game, they play from
a sense of duty, from devotion to
Alma Mater.
II football is no longer sport,
has it any place in college athletics,
whose aim presumably is to provide
a healthtul and entertaining means
of diversion and physical exercise
for young men primarily engaged
in intellectual tasksp With the in
PRODUCTION of the preceptorial
system, no one knows better than
the Princeton undergraduates them
selves that their playtime should
not be sacrificed to work OF the
hardest kind. Abolish football ?
BY no means. We love the game
too much for that. but, as President
Woodrow Wilson declared two or
three years ago, unless football is
reformed it is doomed, and that is
why we be-speak a hearty cooper
alton with President Roosevelt in
his efforts to save the great Ameri-
can college game.

Social Life on the Farm

Many boys leave the farms when
sixteen to nineteen years old tor
clerkship or places of some sort in
the towns. Even the girls cut
loose from their mothers apron
strings and go out to make living
by such work as they can do. This
desire to leave the farms arises from
poor social conditions. There is
not fun aud frolic enough for the
young people in the country. Par
ents should encourage social meet
ings. Every week the young
people of the neighborhood should
come together and enjoy such games
and amusements as are helpful and
educative. The parents should
contribute to their enjoyment and
no, 60 around grumbling and COM
planning. Then neighborhood
reading club that would subscribe
for a dozen papers and magazines
would make the homes attractive.
The boys should be allowed to
raise a colt, calf or pig each and
and get the proceeds. Give them
a cotton patch and let them under
stand that the money will belong
to them. Then let the girls, as
their taste inclines, have charge of
one milch COW, some poultry, or
the canning of fruit. Such plan
makes home attractive, gives the
children some idea of business, and
makes them independents Pro-

brought him swiftly around the
Florida peninsula to Washington,
his Official home. On his arrival
Yesterday ut the navy yard, he was
given a hearty welcome by hun
dreds of citizens who gathered
there. Upon leaving his ship, he
entered his carriage with Mrs
Roosevelt who had come to meet
him, and was driven at once to the
White House where after luncheon
be with his secretary plunged into
large batch of mail that had been
received during his absence. He
was almost Immediately interrupted
however, to receive the Methodist
Bishops who have been holding
conference here, and after their de-
parture h. held consultations, with
several members of his cabinet.
The President return was marked
with a brilliant naval display at the
Navy yard. The commandant OF
the post and all the officers were
out in their uniforms, brilliant with
gold lace and other decorations
The Marine Band played patriotic
airs as the President went ashore
and all the way on his drive to the
Executive Mansion, a distance of
nearly three miles, he received a
welcome, with shouts and cheers
and waving hats and handkerchefs
from the citizens who happened to
be passing through the streets.
Plans had been made at the Navy
yard to give the President a more
formal reception, but 40 sooner had
the ship touched the dock than the
President jumped ashore and
greeting Mrs. Roosevelt, was in
the carriage and ready to leave the
Navy yard before the officers and
marines tor the formal reception
could pull themselves together and
get into line.

1t was not known until the Presi
dent arrived here that he had suf
fered slight injuries when the fruit
freighter, Esparta collided with the
Magnolia on the lower Mississippi.
The President was at that time pre-
pairing to go to bed in his state
room, and the shock was so sudden
that he was thrown violently
against window looking out on
the deck, his head and shoulders
going entirely through the glass,
scattering it in every direction.
The flying pieces from the window
as his head went through did not
inflict any injury, but as Mr..
Roosevelt pulled himself back into
the cabin, he found himself bloody.
He felt no pain, however, and in u
short time ascertained that the cuts
which he had received about the
arms and shoulders were scratches
of no Importance. though they bled
considerably for a few minutes.
The President had ascertained all
the facts about the collision by the
time his secretary and Surgeon
Rixey, en- deshabille appeared on
the scene, although they lost little
time in fastening to his room.

Several things of Importance
have taken place since the return
of the President among them the
appointment of Charles A. Stillings
of Boston as Public Printer. He is
only "a years of age considerably
less than half the age of his prede-
cessor, Mr.. Palmer, and his ap-
pointment doubtless foreshadows an
economical, business management
Of that big and shiftless Office. He
has had much experience in the
management of a large office in
Boston and he will come to the
management of the Government
Printing Office uncommitted and
without fear or favor, with no
friends to reward and no enemies
to punish. The selection is regard
ed as an excellent one.
