slonal teams. by the athletic rules
now most universally In use, those who
accept such positions will be debarred
from playing on any college team. The
rule was established to keep college
sport free from professionalism, and
has been regarded Us wise. Lately,

wisdom bas been shown by prominent
college presidents and professors. They
point out that what Is wanted to pre-.
vent college boys from giving undue
prominence to sport. To this end 1t IL
desirable to keep professional ball
players from entering college merely
to play ball; but that Is no reason why
a genuine student, under the necessity
Of earning his way through college,
should not be left as free to do 1t by
playing ball as by teaching school or
selling books. The change OF feeling on
this matter Is interesting as showing
a tendency to look mt college sport more

WE ARE IN A NEW EPOCH.

Ten years ago Congress formally de-
United States OF America and the king
dom Of Spain. With that act fate
turned the page upon new chapter in
the history OF the American people.
This at least Is clear after ten years.
Perhaps 10 the wlsest little else Is clear.
The mood OF the nation to-day has Ger.
tainly neither the enthusiasm OF the
so-called cXpansionist nor the anxiety
and forebodlng OF the anti-imperiallst.
The future looks neither so bright as 1t
did 10 the one, nor so dark as 1t did 10
the other. II our mood could be en-
compassed in a phrase it would prob
ably best be described as a somewhat
uninspiring belief In the lnevltabillty Of
our present development. At times this
Is brightly cOlOred by sense Of the
new prestige OF the nation before the
world, but this Is not so new and keen
greatness has never been altogether
denied MS. At times we grow FESTIVE
under q knowledge of new and lrksOme
responsibilities and obligations. But
this does not last long either, since we
are full blooded people, self-confdent,
and not normally anxious, The chap
ter, therefore. thus far Is, in the main,
plain prose. Whether II has q meaning
more poignant than We suspect Is for
the future to disclose. We know that
the chapter Is but begun. That the
American imagination has not caught
fire at the events OF the Spanish war
and Its really splendid results is, per-
haps, explalnable from the fact that our
