How to Escape Drudgery

DO it cheerfully, even il it is moi congenial.
DO it in the spirit of artist, not an ar
tisan
Make it a stepping stone to something higher.
Make perfection your aim and be satisfied
with nothing less
DO not try to do it with part of yourself
the weaker part.
Keep yourself in condition to do 1T as we'll
as it be done.
Regard yourself co-worker with the
Great tor of the universe
Believe in it's worth and dignity. no matter
how humble 1t may be.
Recognize that work IS the thing that dig
niies and ennobles life.
Accept the disagreeable part of 1t as cheer
fully the agreeable.
Choose If it is possible, the vocation for
which nature has fitted you.
See how much you can put into it, instead
of how much you can take out of it.
Remember that it is only through your
work that you grow to your full height.
Train the eye. the ear, the hands, the mind
all the faculties-in the faithful doing of it.

HOW TO SHOOT GAME BIRDS
Only Practice Insures Quick Handlin!

Only practice can insure that valu-

he should be as quick at pulling the

cover and other things allow, coolly

that distance at which the shot-pattern

While it is extremely difficult to lay
down hard and fast rules for good
shooting, l would say: Get on the bird
smartly, then hold If too close, for
there's no sense in blowing a fine bird
to bits. Hold high for birds going
straight away about the level of the

quartering birds. which should be the
easiest, because they offer the biggest
marks. The chief causes of the fail
ures are not enough allowance and the
stopping of the swing of the gun as
the trigger is pulled. The remedy is to
get the gun well ahead of the mark
and to maintain the even swing until
the shot has started upon its journey
Very few indeed are the birds missed
through shooting too far ahead. Final
ly, never balk at a bird which rises
close by in thick cover. Shoot anyhow.
Get the habit of smashing through all
sorts of stuff so long as one inch Of

CAME To COAST
WITH FREMONT
HENRY ESSLER DIES AT AGE
OF lot
WAS VETERAN OF MANY WARS
Prairie du CHEN Man Has Remark
ably Adventurous Career In
Strange Lands and on
Many Seas
snncinI 70 The IIsiald.

Special to The Herald
PAIRIE DU CHEN, Wis, May IA
Henry Essler Of the village of Newton
died recently at the home Of his daugh-
ter, aged 107 years.
He was a remarkable character in
that UP to within year his hands were
steadier than those of the average man
at seventy. He had worn out two sets
of teeth with which nature provided
him and was cutting the third when
death came.
Until he was 95 he never wore
glasses. He never used ear trumpets
and his memory for dates and small
incidents that happened half century
ago was marvellous.
The secret of his memory undoubted-
ly lay in the fact that he kept a MEM
orandum for flfty-four years of every
thing that happened. He frequently
amused himself by reading it over.
He could not stay in one place long,
but kept travelling around and was un-
easy in the house. He wanted to be
out in the air and frequently at home
took a blanket and went out to the
barn to sleep.
Esser was born in Kerkimer country,
New York, in 1897, of German parent
age. He enlisted in the Mexican war
with the First Pennsylvania dragons.
In '49 he was of the party that, led by
General Fremont made the first over
land trip to California. A party of two
hundred that preceded them had been
killed by the Indians.
The Fremont expedition came upon
the scene while they were taking look
at the baggage of the unfortunates.
Henry Essler lifted the top of double
wagon box and found in the second
girl about four years old, who was still
Francisco and adopted her. He was
unable to get any trace of her relatives
and she is now the wife of a Prairie
du Chen man.
He enlisted as a private in the Civil
War with the Sixteenth Wisconsin
regiment. He marched with Sherman
from Atlanta to the sea and was in
Andersonville prison four months. He
was wounded twice. In 1871 he was
master of the ship Torrent and made
trips from Boston to China, bringing
back each time cargo of tea.
He also made expeditions into the
north and remained frozen In the ice
four months. With a vessel loaded
with corn he went to Ireland during
the famine, and in telling of it would
say: II guess / laughed five hundred
times over the way one man got his
rations for six children by saying he
had two, his wife had two and they
had two between them. They were the
same two children all the time"

FORWARD PASS
NOT ALLOWED
WOULD CAUSE FOOTBALL TO
LOSE FEATURE
RULES COMMITTEE UNANIMOUS
Members Hold That Such Radical
Change Would Destroy Game.
Weaken Defense or
offense

The rumors to the effect that the In
was intending sensational changes in
the rules for next season appear TO
have been founded more or less upon
basis of Imagination. 1t was said
first of all that the members of the
committee had decided to abolish the
rule prohibiting forward passes, in or
der to bring about more open game.
This and other things of a more or
less startling nature were denied re-
Gently by one of the rules committee
men, who said that aside from a little
discussion of several important points
no legislating had been done. Numer-
Gus plans for opening up the game
have been discussed, but the tendency
of the board has been entirely toward
conserva tism.
There is nothing in the statement
made" said the member of the COM
mittee. that the forward pass had
been approved. Such talk is quite silly,
because the committee is not eager to
change the very nature of American
football, but wants merely to insure a
more open style of play. To allow the
forward pass, it seems to me, would
be to make American football no long
er a distinctive game, and while taxi
ing away it's distinguishing feature
would make it look like Rugby. 1t was
said that there had been a division of
sentiment as to the advisabilit Of TAX
ing this step, and that some of the
members voted for the forward pass
and others against it.
This is not so either. There was no
division on any of the questions con-
sidered. The proposals were taken
home by each of the members of the
committee and will be given to their
constituents for discussion before the
next meeting.
"The chief points made in the recent
conference dealt with the weakening
of the defense and offense in alternate
attempts to insure open play. Under
the plan of opening the mass forma-
tions an extra official would be nee
essary. 1t was proposed to weaken the
offense, by limiting the number of
players behind the line and compelling
them all to stand certain distance be-
hind the rush line. The extra official
would be there to see that they did keep
the required distance from the line of
scrimmage and enforce such other
things as the rules might require. The
object of this is to give the two lines
chance to break before the backs
reach them and also to prevent a gen
eral massing of forwards.
"The weakening of the defense was
suggested along similar lines. One
proposal was made that the three men
behind the line on the defensive should
be placed three yards behind the for
wards. The other suggestion was TO
allow but five men on the line of scrim-
mage on defensive formation. The
other six players would be compelled
to stand a certain distance behind the
rush line"
