HEALTH TEST FOR p. S. A. L. BOYS.
echoolboy Athletes TO Be Examined by
Board OF Health Doctors.

The Public Schools Athletic League, having
solved the problems OF eligibility and genera !
athletic ftn ess OF the boys registered with
II, now has turned its attention to physical
fitness for competition No public school
boy will hereafter be permitted 10 compete
in games under p S A L control without
having passed a physical examination by a
doctor attached to the staff OF the Board OF
Health. In the past the lea has con-
sidered that the one serious defect with its
plans was the absence of a test for the physi-
cal condition Of the boys competing, and the
directors were afraid that some OF them might
do themselves great injury while competing
because they we're not really A. for il There
are ], 400 school child in the league, and il
was considered beyond the means of the
association to hire a stan of doctors for the
work OF examination
So many young hildr en- compete that il
is not hard TO assume that come must do
themselves harm nv running with their
bodies in go immature condition. To such
children. particularly those with weak hearts
and defective lungs. the strain Of a race
naturally is harmful. The league appealed
10 DR.. Thomas Darlington of the Depart
mem of Health DR.. Dsrlin Rton and DR.,
Cronin, his assistant in medical inspection
Of schools, agreed 70 have the school physi-
clans. who examine school children for
disease anyway, make special tests to deter
mine the fitness of the child for athletic sports.
The league has determined TO bar from
competition any boy failing to qualify by
test.
The Health Department physician at the
time of his regular examination certines as
10 the fitness for athletic competition Of each
boy before him. The certificate. good for a
school year, lie deposited with the principal
Of the school. In the entry blanks that the
league has prepared for its games there will
be q blank form regarding the physical e,N-
animation, which must be filed out nv the
prin cipal. Without a favorable certifcation
no boy can ompete
Dr.. L. II. Quick, secretary of the Public
Schools Athletic League, says. This plan
Of having all schoolboy. competitors certified
BY physicians before they can compete is
an important improvement in the leagues
eligibility plans. Already we require that
the COMPETITOR shall he certified as to scholar
ship and department by his. principal. Now,
through the cooperation OF the Department
OF Health, we are enabled TO require that the
boy shall also be IN proper physical ,condl-
ton. We can be certain hereafter that no
boy competitor is In LANCER of straininE
a weak heart or of aggravating q diseased
condition through competing. In short,
we are to be enabled TO give our sohoolboys
the same careful physical protection that is
now the rule AZ the big colleges. AT the
same time this will give all parents absolute
assurance that their children II allowed
TO compete. are in proper condition, ana Will
also give the physical training instructors IN
the schools valuable data AS to the treatment

FOOTBALL MAKES FALSE HEROES.
Northwestern University Gives This Reason
for euspending Game for Five Years.

CHICAGO, March - -Footbal has been sus-
handed for FIVE years by The trustees OF North
wastern University. This startling announce :
ment was made by Acting President Holgste
at chapel Yesterday and was received by a
storm Of Kisses from the undergraduates,
The action was AIKEN after a protracted in
vestiaation by the board Of trustees of the
Methodist college.
The suspension was not prompted by the
brutality Of the game, but because OF the
intense rivalry created between colleges and
college men and the development Of false
! hero worship Ths glamor with which the
gridiron warrior has been surrounded was
deeply deplored by the trustees and it was
decided that the only way IN which the evils
attendant uponthe game could be eliminated
was by drastic action. With this in view they
decided that a five years suspension was the
only way 70 overcome the evil
In speaking of the action OF the board Of
trustees President Holgate said
I'm the view of the trustees the game
develops a worship Of false heroes, not true
heroes as the word goes. Although we did
not agree with President Eliot of HARVARD in
Ar .LaSt, 1t is apparent to us that the men
, who are necessary TO constitute q successful
y football team are not the real students. The
7 eub-committee which investigated. the game
\ reported 10 this effect az the meeting and il
Wae on this report that we acted.
1T was the opinion Of many of the trustees
present'that pernicious Influences are present
and much moral mischief results from attend;
II 10000 students would rush 10 a field to
witness a game OF tennis. The football game
strength, skill and heetness of foot. The
man who, shows his supremacy IN these
nceomplishments is the hero who Is wor-
shipped. Many other colleges VIII follow us
in this move. College football has reached
a point where II IS all In the interest Of foot
ball and not In the interest Of the student.

his pitching ana fielding there ls no doubt
that he will wear a New York uniform this

such visits, especially that of the En-
press, had no precedent in the history
of the empire.
1t is safe to say that not for 1900
years has Shintoism been so empha-
sized as it is today. The work of re-
vival began in the eighteenth century,
but made little progress for the Mika-
does were then still under the thumb
of the Shoguns.
In 1868, when the imperial house was
restored to power the revival was
again pushed forward, but the work
done was chiefly destructive and ex-
pended itself in clearing away the Or
nate buildings, pagodas, etc, and the
florid decorations with which Budd-
hism had adapted the Shinto establish
ments to it's own purposes. That move
ment was strong enough to lead the
art loving Japanese to sacrifice many
precious objects of national art to the
reformers' zeal, but still the work was
negative.
The revival of today is vigorous and
positive, and doubtless, like all other
movements connected with the war,
has been carefully planned and timed
10 the occasion. 1t certainly makes
plain that whatever changes take place
in her outward appearance and how
ever much her sphere OF influence shall
widen Japan at heart pledges herself
to keep faith with the dead"

A FAIR EXCHANGE.

Large sums of money are no
doubt realized from simple spec
ulation, but the great fortunes
are derived from legitimate and
honest business-where the goods
furnished are worth the price
they bring. Certain famous bust
ness men have accumulated their
millions wholly in this way.
Prompt and faithful in every
contract or engagement they en-.
JOY the confidence Of the public
and command a class of trade
that is refused to unstable or
tricky competitors. In the long
run it does not pay to cheat or
deceive others. & humbug may
be advertised with a noise like
the blowing Of a thousand trum-
pets, but it is soon detected and
exposed. The manufacturers of
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have always acted on very differ
ent principles. Before offering
it to the public they first made
sure of it's merits. Then, and
then only, did its name appear
in print. People were assured of
what it would do, and found the
statement truthful. To-day they
believe in it as we all believe in
the word of a tried and trusted
friend. It is palatable as honey
and contains all the nutritive
and curative properties of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted by US
from fresh cod 1ivers, combined
with the Compound Syrup of
Hypophosphites and the Extracts
of Malt and Wild Cherry. It
aids digestion, drives impurities
from the blood, and cures Ane-
mia, Scrofula, Debility, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
Wasting Complaints. DR.. Louis
W. Bishop says: 81 take pleasure
in saying l have found it a most
efficient preparation, embodying
all of the medicinal properties
of a pure cod liver oil in a most
palatable form" It is a scientific
remedy and a food with a deli
cious taste and favour. One
bottle convinces. "You cannot
be disappointed in it." Sold by
chemists here and everywhere.
