Velvet is a fabric that is a perennial favorite
And well it may be, for every woman we'll knows
that it is the most becoming of all, So no matter
what other fabrics may be. the fashion velvet

Lyons silk velvet, chiffon and panne velvets
velutina, velveteen and cords will all be fash
ionabe for certain occasions and uses For hard
service and street use the English velvets are
most desirable and it is for this reason that
most of the smart French models shown in
tailored suits and short princess dresses were
made of this fabric. The short princess frocks
will soon make their appearance on the fashion,
able promenades, for they are intended to be
worn with only big stoles of feathers or fur
with the big muff to match, This is just the
sort of costume for afternoon visits and teas
The woman who wants a velveteen suit this

Some of the evening wraps have sleeves. and
these are generally cut in one with the garment

VEILS IRE DIFFERENT.
Degree of Fashion Noted By Size of
Dots on Squares.

The new wells are totally different from those
Of last season They are the kind that the smart
French and American women resident in Paris
began to wear at the big race meetings in June.
Women who have been abroad during the sum-
mer have accepted these big dotted wells with
enthusiasm. because they are Immensely be-
coming. and then. too, they give mysterious air
to the wearer that adds to her many fascina
tiOns.
But the woman who has stayed at home. she
has so far seen only few on the street. and she
murmurs and hesitates as to whether they are
quite the latest chic, else she hens and haws
because probably she thinks the price extrava-
CANT and says something about their hurting

dotted veil Will work more harm in half an hour
with the eyes than big dotted one will in
week. The proof of this statement is in the
wearing.

free play of manliness
 All these things taken together had corrupted the fine spirit of sportsman chip and painstakingness unless in pre- para ton that characterized the game of yore and which gave 1t its impetus of popularity.
 Apropos of this line of discussion, 1t is pertinent to consider the example Of Yale There a consistent. winning team is invariably produced and one very rarely hears of a Yale man being seriously injured. This Is because the Yale system has kept the game req eonably pure. Yale spirit will not tol- crate any unsportsmanlike tactics. it will not tolerate indifference and hap hazard in preparation. 1t wil not allow craft and cowardice to inroot them st Ives More than that even 1t pro- vides for the proper centralization of authority. The captain of the eleven is always boss. not a superanumery: he is real man. generally the Attest man all around in the university, a leader in every sense of the word. not pet of select circles; finally he Is head coach-in short the central sun of the whole football system. Conse- quently to become captain is an honor most earnestly sought by every aspir- ant to the eleven from the lad in pre- paratory school who is looking toward old Eli as his Alma Mater to the scrub on the eleven who has reached hie Junior year without preference. All have the one hope. And it is this hope. this ideal. that has kept Yale's spirit unsullied and her Eridiron ex- cellence pre-eminent.
 It would be shame to abolish foot ball on the ground of it's calamities- that would insult our intelligence.-as we'll abolish stairs because people fall down them and get killed sometimes Football is our standard American sport and we need it to develop sturdy manhood. to conserve American insti- tutions. But let it be decanitated and pruned of it's errors by painstakinR analysis and put upon safe and sound basis. Let us pay more atten- ton to playing the game right. as lts nature demands, and not meddle with | It's formations constantly with the end In view solely of increasing the gate l receipts. In this one thing a. least there has been retrogression, not pro- gress. in our national life Lets get back into line.

FOOTBALL FATALITIES
 klin
(Harry Franklin Porter)

Shortly ago. at the time of Cadet Byrne's death on the football field. the editor of the Farmer requested the writer to put forward an opinion in the matter. His discussion appeared in the Farmer of Nov. 6. Attention is recalled to the same apropos of what follows It was then pointed out. that football is a game only for the very hardest and that natural timidity or lack of preparedness always bear fruit in injury.
 Since then the writer had some further thoughts on the subject and be- sides was in attendance at the ban quet of the Sagamore Club in Phila- men prominent in the football world discussed this very issue. It seemed to be the consensus of opinion among those who had followed the game very closely for years that the chief trouble is in the modern method of attack which permits almost any license in the matter of plays. This license has vested the game with uncertituds. with the result that instead of as for merly plunging into the play with abandon the men on the defense are kept on the keen edge of apprehension snd hence are in a less stable position to resist and return onslaught
 The forward pass came in for uni- versal condemnation also. 1t being held that the player receiving the ball for the attack being in the thick of hos tile territory at the time was liable to onslaught while in the air and in no position to defend himself to advan- tage.
 A third point brought out was this. that the modern game was being play ed altogether too much by the coach es- This factor had two very bad ia aults. to wit: CD the players being robbed of measure of their self reliance by the division of authority and the feeling that they were at all times under the rigid censorship of the coaches did not play the game with the same fearless abandon as in the old fashioned days; @ that the coach es in their desire to merely win stoop- ed to tactics of play that were not al- together sportsmanlike. with the result that elements of craft were introduced into the game which interrupted the

THUNDER RUMBLES HERALD COMING OF NATIONAL MAGNATES
Vital Matters Scheduled for Action on December Is.
Special to the Farmer.)


 New York. Dec. IA meeting of the mganates of the National team has always been a fearsome affair. but the one that is scheduled to occur in this city on Dec. 18th. will probably be a free for all fight without even barring the strangle hold.
 Here are some of the most import ant things scheduled which are likely to cause fights that will go to the lim- it:
 fort of Charles W. Murphy and John T. Brush to make the National league a syndicate" by taking over the Philadelphia club; the effort to de- pose Billy Murray as manager of the Quakers; the effort of Garry Herr schedule of the National league and provide for a series of inter-league games at the conclusion of the regu- lar league season
 The light over the Presidency of course. is expected to be. the biggest growing however. that Garry Herr mann will put one over on the other magnates and force the election of Heydler who succeeded Harry Pull liam, though Murphy and Brush are sure to continue their fight against the present president It is known that several of the mag mates will endeavor to have Murphy and Brush dispose of their holdings in the Philadelphia team, believing that the entire league will suffer from this "syndication" of interest Horace Fogel, the new manager of the Philadelphia club. Is known to be opposed to the further reign of Mur- ray. but as Murray has contract the efforts to dislodge him may prove to be a bigger problem than the Murphy Brush-Fogel commission can sur- mount

 Edwards Is out for a representative team for 1910, he intends to retain Freddie Robarge. because he can coy- CT any position.
