The action taken by Columbia uni
Versity in abolishing football altogeth-
er does not meet with the approval of
Coiumbia's coach, Richard Smith He
has given out an interview on foot
ball with his views of what should
be done, and lany prominent coaches
or the country agree with him While
the faculties Of the different colleges
are busy trying to reform the game,
the coaches side OF the question Is
interesting. Here is what Smith has
to say:
"A few college professors, who know
practically nothing of the game, are
attempting TO remodel it or drive it out
or existence. The latter the public will
not permit, as evidenced nv the i'm
mense attendance at all the principal
games during the past season. To
change the rules would accomplish lit
tie, unless the game is entirely changed.
which would not be generally ac-
ceDted.
The real way to accomplish what is
claimed TO be deslred-the elimination
OF brutality-is to call the coaches to-
gether and make item agree not to
direct their men to try to disable the
players of the opposing team. If the
coaches could be persuaded or forced
to do this the brutality in the game
would soon be eliminated. and it could
not be done in any other way. / say
this without reservation, because l
know what the coaches teach the play
ers, and l mean the coaches of all the
leading teams of the country. The
more successful they are in doing this.
the higher price thu command.
Coaches are paid to develop winning
teams, and they are INSCRIPTIONS as
to how they do IT.
A change in the rules will not have
the desired effect unless this feature
of coaching is entirely changed. I had
the pleasure OF witnessing the auto
mobile race or the Vanderbilt cup, and
as far as brutality and danger are con-
cerned. football is a game for babies as
compared with such contests. / went
up telegraph pole for safety, but when
saw Keene torn to pieces with his
machine I started back for New York"
While returning home Mr.. Smith
stopped of at Chicago to witness the
Thanksgiving game between Chicago
and Michigan. Speaking of IL, he said:
1T was probably the best game ever
played in this country. I consider
either team superior to the big eastern
teams of the present year. Their speed
was terrific and their thorough knowl-
edge Of the game was marvellous"

Spirited Debate over Sport.

Inc ueDdJe curing the day was Splr-
tied at times The appointment OF a
rules committee TO act with the exist
ing football committee was the result
of the stand taken by West Point in
favor OF such action as the most ra-
tional course for the conference to pur-
sue. West Point suggested that the
committee be limited to five members
but finally consented to its enlargement
to seven. The instructions to the new
rules committee were those recon-
mended by West Point. Captain Pierce
representing the military academy. de-
clared that the academy authorities did
not want all the roughness taken from
the game. Some knocks and bruises
were necessary to the sport, he said.
He believed the present rules. slightly
modified and enforced, would bring
about the desired change in the game.
Among the many resolutions intro
duced the following was adopted:
Plenty of Resolutions.

Mark Twain a Prophet!

The rumor is gaining wider credence
not wholly a creation of the authors
fancy, and that Oberlin, Ohio, was in
his mind at the time he wrote his
famous story. The Man Who Corrupt
ed Hadleyburg.r One newspaper cor
respondent backs his belief with. cir
cumstantial evidence. He says:
Yes, Oberlin is Hadleyburg. Mark
Twain, once visited Oberlin and took a
violent dislike to the place. It's good
ness was too good. 1t was too prouG
of it's goodness. On leaving the little
village Mark Twain declared that he
would never enter the town again He
added to the declaration at another
time: If could go from New York
to Chicago without passing througi
Oberlin, I would go around the the
other way"
Mark Twan's story of towns NOR
al downfall was written several years
ago, and now come the Chadwick ex-
posures and the crash in Oberlin "Ol
all places in the country" says the
same correspondent, "Oberlin would
have been, the last in which to have
looked for a sensation such as has
come upon it. When reading Mark
Twain's keen bit of satire we laughed.
1t was so far from any possible realiza-
ton that it was real joke. But, alas !.
fiction has become fact. Oberlin has
been corrupted This could scarcely
have been dreamed of by the widest
fancy. More than fancy could have
pictured has been realized. Shall Mark
Twain be numbered among the
prophets.

HOMEMADE RUGS.
How Old Pieces of Carpet May BE p,
to Good Use

HOW OIO F1eces OF Carpet May he Pal
to Good Use.
Very handsome rugs may be made
at home with but little time or expense
Very neat and durable rugs may be
made from bits of ingram carpet, and
new pieces can be bought for yerr
small sum, but old pieces of carpet can
be used after cleaning thoroughly. Cut
into bias strips little more than one
inch in width and ravel out One-half
Inch; then sew these strips on a firm
foundation, overlapping them so that
only the fringe is visible. says a writer
In the Christian Work and Evangelist
Some rugs that have done good sery
ice for several years were made of wide
bordering that comes for brussels car
pets. Two different remnants were
purchased with enough yarn fringe for
trimming the rugs The desired length
Of the rug was taken and two lengths
Of the carpet cut and neatly whipped
together: then the ends of the rugs
were hemmed and the fringe sewed on.
and the rugs were finished and as hand
some as some of the high priced woven
articles.
Perhaps the easiest way to make
rug from old cloth is to cut the pieces
into strips about three inches wide,
then lay two or three of the strips to-
gether, sew through the center with the
sewing machine, then cut into fine
fringe. and the strips should be stitched
as close together as possible A very
handsome rug seen recently was
crocheted on large wooden hook in
the single stitch and was made Of odds
and ends of materials in both cotton
and wool, and the faded wooden pieces
had been colOred with dyes, and the
stripes We're crocheted in the hit or miss
style.
Pretty homemade rugs can be made
at almost no expense. and they are far
preferable to the inartistic and cheap
store articles, which seldom have good
colors and never wear we'll.
