distrust and hostility between col
leges." without noting that this. I'M
desirable condition has arisen i'll con-
nection with many other sports, that
it is lesscning in frequency ana vru-
lence, and that it is in the main an in
direct and unforeseen result of the
enormous development since 1876 of
both collegiate life and intercollegiate
sport in this country. without the rules
or traditions of government handed
down through generations. as in Eng
land Football should bear it's share
of whatever opprobrium attaches to
this condition, but not more than its
Share.
1t would also be fair to add that this
most Objectionable state of diStrust
and hostility is partly due to the com
pleXity of the rules that have come
into existence by Il process of evolution
in the effort to correct various defects
successfully developed in the conduct
of our American intercolleEiate sports.
Many cases have arisen under these
rules in which it has been quite possi-
BILE for two equally intelligent and
equally fair minded bodies of men to
take Numerically opposite views. Of
course the situation is 4 familiar one
in business. in politics, i'll law. in re-
ligicn, in morals, even in science, but
its occurrence is in fairly direct pro-
portion to tho intricacy of the code or
creed, the system or method, intended
to prevent it.
1t would be Utopian to suggest that
| the Golden Rule would cover this, as it
would most other cases of mental
distrust al hostility" but certainly
simplification is desirable.
DIR. Eliot'S concluding comparison
between the ethics of civiliza ton and
| the 'barharOus ethics of warfare,
which he attributes to football because
some one has said that football is "A

those of war" need not be seriously
| considered. 1t is easy to set UP and
overcome any number of men in buck
ram. and, if this line of thought were
| followed up. one might next find ONES
self in the thick of an anti-imrerialIst
argument. Let the believer in war de-
fend it. Our witherS are unWrung.
DR.. Eliot thinks that 1.-The game of
| football has become seriously injurious
to rational American life in schools and
colleges. Professor VIII DE ht say .
| ''The question is whether the pleasure
we find in a game which has become 50
dangerous is one which people of refine

One might think that football was
doomed, but let those of us who be-

heart when we recall the many similar

MANY CONSERVATIVES HELPED.
State Hospital in Adirondack Shows Encour.
asine Fisures-.i05 Patients Discharged.

The trustees of the New York
State Hospital for Incipient Pull
monary tuberculosis in the Adiron-
dacks have issued their completed
statistics for the first year, which is
as follows: There were admitted
POI patients, more than half OF
whom were incipients. There were
no deaths. OF the los patients dis
charged, fifty-two were apparently
recovered. Twenty-six arrested cases
are reported. Sixteen improved,
while eleven left without any i'm.
movement. The treatment consists
mainly of outdoor air, wholesome
food and rest. Patients have three
full meals and two or three lun-
cheons day, and 90 OF the los
gained an average of 1857 pounds
each. This is certainly most en-
couraging and shows that incipient
consumptives at least can be cured.
There is another treatment perhaps
almost as good. Stay home, use
cold baths in the morning, get as
much outdoor exercise as possible,
a generous diet and the continuous
use of SCOTS Emulsion will doubt
less check the progress of the dis
ease and may permanently cure. At
any rate it is easy to try it.
