Too Much Attention Paid to Sports
in Most American CoIIenes

| 100 MUCH Attention Paid to Sport.
in Most American Colleges.
President Lowell Of Harvard IS
sues timely warning against uae
dangers which athletics have become
in cur social life. He refers espe-
eially TO the college career Of young
men, but he is no mere Thersftes;
neither is he constructive in his ar
gument.
It cannot be denied that in most
educational Institutions athletics
have achieved unnecessary distinction
in the ideals of young men. It IS
unnecessary to argue the point. But
why is the athletic craze objection
able?
Because very few collegians can
get honors in this branch, and tae
result is of little use to them in
after life. But even when the few
succeed because of advertisement,
what becomes of the rest. They have
striven and lost, or have hoped in
vain. They feel that they are w!nol1y
out of the running in the game 81
life because of a lack of physical
strength.
But, look at the Greeks, say some.
Yes, look at them. They lived in a
warm climate, where homes we're OF
little account. where most activities
were out of doors and where a city
was the ruler owe surrounding
country OF helots o. peasants chained
TO ;ite soil. The Greek looked to war
or commerce with the Bar5arians.
He had a different attitude of life
from the American boy. and his OBJ
portunities and ambitions were In
diametrieaily opposite directions.
Athletics in mild measure are
good for any one. but 1t is not the
whole of life to be the best half
back or pitcher. the best tennis
player or bowler These things we
ought yet to rave done and not TO
have left the other undone. The
real complaint against our colleges
Is that they are not able to give
young men those ideals and those am
billions which are going to be OF
best service. not only to them but
to society, whom they get into the
fierce conflict where the fittest alone
survive. Philadelphia Inquirer.

NATURAL RESULT OF NON-PAR-
TISANSHIP.

TISANSHIP.
Fate of the railroad bill in Con-
gress displays the logical result of
non-partisan, independent" insur
gent politics. Insurgent members
emasculate an important Republican
measure and repudiate allegiance to
a party policy whose outcome will
either make or undo, vindicate or
discredit, the political organization
which was supposed to have their
support. They are pursuing their
own designs of politics and dema-
gogy and asserting them superior to
purposes of their party, as pronoun-
ced by major ty Republicans and Ad-
ministration.
So that Congress will probably &C
complish nothing for needed i'm
provement in the power of the Inter-
state Commission. 1t all goes to
show once more that party govern
ment and party responsibility are
only effective methods of political and
governmental action. Great many
persons have been praising insurgent
rcvolters without forseeing the effect
Yet it is Oldest of lessons that the
only opportunity for remedial legis-
lation comes from subordination of
inority opinions to plans of ma

WEDDING INVITATIONS

~ OW that spring is here, and the
music OF the wedding bells in
sists upon being heard. il is not
amiss 10 talk about the wedding
invitations. There are certain points
that must be kept in mind when select
Ing these engraved forms.
In the first place, they should be
chosen and sent by mail not sooner than
four weeks nor later than fifteen days
before the ceremony.
The bride-to-be and her fianee should
make a list of the relatives and friends
of each. Added to this. there should ne
the names of the important business
associates of the brides father and of
the groom. This Is a matter of business
courtesy. l suggest a careful inspection
Of this list. Do not make the mistake of
including persons unknown to you at
the risk Of neglecting friends.
From time to time there are certain
deviations from any set form. but in
the main there is always a sa tisfaction
in a conservative. accepted style. Good.
unglazed paper, Of a pure white or cream
shade, should be selected. With each
sheet there come two envelopes; che
first one holds the invitation and is I'M
sealed; the second is used for the ad-
dress.
Do not make one invitation serve for
matron and her children. MIR. and Mrs.

TO the plane OF a prepared" articls.
If cOTnmeal be kept in a bag and
used faithfully, you viii find that the
habit will be quickly formed. to your
lasting benefit,
There Is another use for cornmeal
which should be gratefully received by
women who anticipate a summer of
short sleeves. II is an excellent whiten-
er. After the olive-oil massage. which
I earnestly recommend, it will put the
finishing touches on your arms.
When the feet are tired and aching, a
cornmeaI bath will give relief and COM
fort-just the dry meal, mark you, but
heated in the oven before using. Bury
the feet in the coarse grains and watch
for the results in the general ease that
will follow.
Just one more suggestion for this home
product. If the hair be oily and quick
shampoo desired, shake q fair amount
of fine cornmeal into the hair and give a
vigorous massage to the scalp. Then
brush every particle out Of the hair. It
is best to do this over a large towel or
sheet, and If YOU do not believe in the
cleansing properties of this dry sham
