SHOW VIOLENT EFFORT.
Facial Casts Which Depict Agony OF
Physical Overstraining.

From the New York Tribune.
The strenuous athlete of the college cinder
path may well look long and ponder much
on a remarkable set of facial casts just
completed by DR.. r. TAFT Mckenzie, physi-
cal director of the University of Pennsyl-
vania With the object 'of showing now
the violent efforts of athletes to cut frac-
lions Of seconds from existing records AFFECT
the physique. DR.. Mckenzie has made a
series of models which reveal with lifelike
accuracy the effort with which the heroes
Of the cinder path win their victories. DIR.
Mckenzie based his facial models on photo
graphic snapshots made at the time various
athletic leaders were breaking the tape or
surmounting the hurdles at Franklin Field
and other athletic centers.
The most remarkable Of the models per-
haps is that depicting violent effort. Were
It not that the camera has depicted again
and again the dreadful expression of
trained sprinter or jumper at the moment
when he has called to his help every ounce
of power In his entire being, in order to do
just little better than his opponent It
would be difficult to believe that the con-
testant was amusing himself. The face
suggests the mesmerized man IN Poe's story
at the time of the attempted awakening
The lips are drawn tightly back from the
teeth. The eyes are closed. The jaws are
clenched. The lines of the face are deep.
If the athlete were struggling for life the
expression OF the face could not be moro
ed effort, the focusing OF all the force In
every fiber of a trained physique on tho
winning of an athletic victory The more
one looks at the picture the greater Is the
temptation to doubt the value OF a victory
SO won.
While not so fierce as violent effort. the
marks made on the face by fatigue are bad
enough. Gone is the last trace of the
blitheness OF youth. The face Is that OF
man tired OF the battle Of life and ready
to welcome relief from the burden of the
race. The expression Is identical with that
familiar to all attendants ct big athletic
meets when the contestants stumble
through the last few yards of a long-dis-
lance run The lids of the eyes are droop-
ing, the mouth open. the cheeks drawn as
though in pain and the general expression
that OF a man who is about to burst into
tears. Exhaustion akin to fatigue also
shown In a face that Is well known to those
who have Witnessed the last run in at
distance event The heavy lines OF the
forehead. the open mouth, the drawn face
susgest despair and call for pity.

CHURCH AND UNION.

SUNDAYS

CHICAGO, May 26.-The plea that a
workingman should be allowed an opportu-
nifty to attend church every Sunday was
advanced this week by union teamsters as
argument In favor of q six-day week.
Upon the response of grocery and market
.proprietors may depend a strike of 5000
drivers June /.
In long memorial addressed to their en-
ployers the teamsters made the Sunday
question. for the first time in labor negotia-
tions the most prominent feature of their
demands They asked relief from Sunday
duties entirely. or at least few hours
respite from work. to permit them an OPP
portunity to attend religious services In
the petition several Scriptural passages were
quoted.
Among the other demands filed by the
drivers one for increase in pay from
$40 to si2 week for men employed In the
outlying districts. and another covering the
right of the union to engage in sympa-
thetic strike.

tribesmen together at the Fort Sill military
reservation for religious worship. Geronimo
has in the last two years shown an unusual

charging that the philanthropic work of the

1t may safely be said that no feat of
translation in any age has never
equalled that achieved by Prof. Jebb
in rendering Browning's "Abt Vogler"
into Greek verse. This fine soliloquy
of the musician is less obscure, no
doubt, than many other of its authors
productions, but it abounds in imagery
and in turns of thought which even
an Englishman finds it not very easy
to follow and of which he could hardly
have conceived it possible that any
Greek equivalents should exist. Yet
they did exist, for Jebb found them,
though it may be doubted whether any
other Greek scholar living would have
been equally successful in his search.

SPEAKING "uNDEa THE ROSE,
Varying Versions of Origin of Famous
Phrase.

Varying Versions of Origin of Famous
Phrase.
The phrase under the rose" had its
origin in the wars between the En-
glish houses of Lancaster and York.
The parties respectively swore by the
red or the white rose, ard these op
posite emblems were displayed as
signs of two taverns, one of which
was by the side of and the other op-
posite to the Parliament House, in old
Palace Yard, Westminster. Here the
retainers and servants of the noble
men attached to the Duke of York
and Henry VI used to meet. Here
also, as disturbances were frequent,
measures, either of defense or annoy
ance, were taken, and every trans.
action was said to be done under the
rose;' by which expression the most
profound secrecy was implied. Ac.
cording to others, the term originated
in the fable of Cupid giving the rose
to Harpocrates, the god of silence. as
a bride to prevent him betraying the
amOurs of Venus, and was hence
adopted as the emblem of silence. The
rose was for this reason frequently
s%culptured on the ceilings of drinking
and feasting rooms, as a warning to
the guests that what was said in mo
ments of conviviality should not be
repeated; from which, what was in
tended to be kept secret was said to
me under the rose" Roses were
consecrated as presents from the
Pope. In 1926 they were placed over
confessionals as the symbols of 81
lence. Hence, according to some. the
origin of the phrase.
