dproduction and may some day be cut
,off from their markets Is a fact that
Worries both the German and French
economists. This Is the main reason
why the governments of both countries
have so persistcntly tried to- get alco-

far with no very encouraging results.
The latest fuel for motors Is benzol, Of
which little Is known beyond the fact
that 1t can be used In motors suited
for gasoline consumption without too
great notifications In the working
parts; also that II has heating ca
pacity of 1000 cal0ries, and Its price

The new fuel has apparently some-
thing to back up Its, claims, fer, though
It has not been officially tried, yet the

STAGE SUCCESS NOT EASY.

IT is the actor who has courage
enough to be true to his high ideals
even in the face Of coldness and neg.
lect and even of bitter antagonism
who wins out in the end. Those play.
ers whose names have become house,
hold words have each and all Of them
triumphed over obstacles from which
ordinary folk would shrink, for It Is In
the theater that most barriers inter-
vene between hope and accomplish
ment and he accomplishes most who
overcomcs most.

scure Yiddish company for years be-

BUT WHY NOT REMEMBER
THAT THE RULES OF THE GAME
IN THE PAST HAVE NOW BEEN
PRACTICALLY TURNED INSIDE
OUT?
Instead OF bone breaking pastime,
with heavy. crushing mass plays we
now have an open game, making speed
and agility more important than. mere
bodily weight. However even with
the new rules, the game Is still such
that no lad should be allowed to play
unless his heart. lungs and body In
general have been carefully examined
and tested by physician and bpro-
nounced to be equal to the occasion.
Women and Football. 40
No matter how much public clamor

The only reason that they don't'at-

That dainty women have attended dog
fights, actual pit contests, is absolute-
ly true. y,,d
As "a matter of fact. there have been
several football teams made up OF %o-
men in this country in the past. They
played real Rugby too. Probably un-
der the new and modified rules women
will once more adopt the game In some
quarters. No ~

In Association football fewer injuries
arise than In Rugby 1t is the latter
form that the colleges use with few ex-
ceptions. In Association the feet are
used in advancing the ball to great
extent. There Is no running with the
ball.. The difference between the games
