coach Yost Compares British and
American Athletes.

Fielding Yost. Michigan's Hurry Up
football coach, gave out a long inter-
view the other day in which he dis
cussed sports in general and inter
national contests between England
and America Among the other things,
he said:
IF there is one thing which makes
me weary it is that annual cry that
goes up from English sportsmen and
athletes that while they themselves
play only for the sport to be found
in games, Americans play solely to
win, not caring for the sport as
sport at all
Every man who takes up a line
of sport does 50 for the benefits and
primarily, sport for sports sake"
But any man-that is, any man with
red blood in his veins-who goes into
any game, goes in to win that game
When Harvard first went across
this summer the English crew used
an old shell which they intended to
carry through the race. Harvard
comes over and makes good show
ing in the preliminary practice The
Englishmen get frantic when they see
chance to get beaten and immediate
u send in an order for a new racing
shell of the latest and most costly
build.
There would have been no differ
ence so far as the sport end of the
race was concerned, but, like anyone
else, they wanted to win and were
willing to take no chances. Then,
again, when the race was finished we
read where three of the Britons fell
exhausted in their boat. They would
have gotten more sport out of it had
they not rowed so hard, but then they
would have been beaten. And still
they rise to remark that their teams
are only out for sport. caring not who
wins or loses.
In the recent Olympian games
England saw early that she could
send no team to Greece able to cope
with the American athletes. In place
of sending the men she had for sports
sake the British association refused
to send a team or representative at
all, preferring to De left out entirely
rather than be beaten.

RUNNING BIRD CHASED BEE.
Movements Of Couple Resembled
Flashes Of Lightning.

Here is a story as told by gentle
man who spends the greater portion
of his time studying the habits Of
birds:
A humming bird with an angry dash
expressed it's disapproval of the pres
ence of big bumblebee in the same
tree. The usually pugnacious bee in
continently fed, but he did not leave
the tree. He darted back and forth
among the branches and white bios.
SONS, the humming bird in close pur-
suit. Where will you find another pair
thu could dodge and dart ee~r-a] to
these? They We're like hashes Of
light, yet the pursuer followed the
track of the pursued, turning when
the bee turned.
In short, the Dird and the Tee con-
trolled the movements of their bodies
more quickly and more accurately
than he could control the movements
of his eyes. The chase was all over
in half the time it takes to tell 1t,
but the excitement of pack of hounds
after fox was no greater. The bee
escaped, the bird giving up the chase
and alighting on a twig. 1t couldn't
have been chasing the bee for food,
and there is no possible explanation
Of it's unprovoked attack, except that
1t wanted all the honey itself.

"My son. who is now twenty-five
years Of age. when he was four
months old began to have eczema on
his face, spreading quite rapidly until
he was nearly covered. We had all
the doctors around us, and some from

terrible, and the doctors said it was
the worst case they ever saw. At
times his whole body and face were
covered, all but his feet. l had to

scalp was just dreadful. A friend
