URGES YALE MEN
 TO BE RELIGIOUS
Service to the Public is Text of MatricuIatiOn Sermon by Sec. Anson Phelps Stokes Jr.

New Haven. Oct. 3.-In the absence of President Arthur T. Hadley, An son Phelps Stokes, Jr., secretary of Yale University, delivered the annual matriculation sermon to the incoming class yesterday, taking as his text a statement made by the late Justice Brewer at the 200th anniversary of the founding of the university in referring to the charter: 'tShe was the first edu- cationa1 institution in the world to make the fitting for public service the expressed and dominant purpose of her educational work.''
 MT. Stokes said:
 T would like to persuade. every stu dent to make Yale's purpose his pur- pose and to help him consecrate his university years to preparation for ser vice. Friendship. Knowledge, breadth and power are good. bi-pFoducts. but the thing toward which this university strains every nerve is to fit each of you for life of vital helpfulness.
 eff a false sense of proportion is the great hindrance, what is the great help, the inspiration to service? I say without hesitation, religion. I do not mean creeds, or church organization, as important as they are; I mean sim ply realizing the life of God in the soul of man. If you cultivate religion, then your ultimate goal in life will be to give, not to get.''

 London, Oct 3.-'It is simply inn possible for Roosevelt to stay out of politics and I am glad of it. He shouldn't stay out for consider him one Of the greatest forces for good in America
 This is the opinion of Andrew Car negie, expressed in today's Evening Standard. The Laird of Skibo, who is now in England and receiving the freedom of nearly every city he visits, believes that the Republican party in America will yet get together, bury it's differences and .'re-elect the pres ent splendid President
 My view of American politics" !" Carnegie said, ''is that the people are making a fuss over the most minor questions and that before election the Republicans will sink their differences and present a solid front. The re- election of President Taft in 1912 is so much to be desired that the Repub- licans should put every other issue aside.''

BOSTON PASTOR LIKES
 THE HOBBLE SKIRT
Especial from United Press, )

Boston, Oct. 3.-.'Though the hobble skirt is the ugliest fashion woman's garb I ever beheld, I like it,'' is the declaration of the Rev. Herbert s. Johnson, an ''advanced'' Boston pastor who today is getting no small praise from the dressmakers of the Hub. Everyone is down on the hobble skirt he continued, t'even the won- en who wear it. Still like it. Any thing is better than to have women dress in the same style at all times. The dreary drabs and grays of the Quakers, I believe to be the most depressing sights ina ginable.

1sneciaI from 11nited PressA

Special from United Press.)
 London Oct. 3.-A revolution in the English penitentiary system that will do away with solitary confinement, 1shment and other practices that have made English prisons notable, are foreshadowed today in an informal visit of Home Secretary Winston Churchill made to the NPentoneville jail. Churchill had long talks with several of the prisoners as a result of which he liberated a number and released four who were underging special punishments for various petty 1nfractions of prison rules.
 Churchill's act surprised officia1dom. It is said he intends to go thoroughly into the question of prison reform.
