ANOTHER VIEW OF FOOTBALL
The Spirit That Counts.

Yale football team defeated
Princeton's superb eleven. Back of
those men struggling on the field
was what is known as the Yale
spirit. the spirit that has made men
out of the boys almost in a night
that has taught the absolute folly
of ever giving up, that has made
men get out in the world and fight
against overwhelming odds. 1t Is
the spirit that has made Yale what
il is, and Princeton what It is. and
other colleges what they are. 1t
is the spirit that to many men in
after years has been worth more
than all the other college training
they received.
II never does to give up, and no
man has any right to give up
while he still lives. He cannot ad-
equately weighs the odds against
him He is not a fit judge as to
whether he can succeed or not. His
business is to try for what he
wants, and to keep on trying, work
ing hardest when things are most
contrariwise, profiting by his mis-
takes, always making ready and al
ways being ready. The Yale spirit
is the American spirit which en-
abled our forefathers to conquer the
mountains and the wildernesses, the
spirit that made millionaires out OF
poor farmer boys and governors out
of pauper orphans. There Is no
such thing as defeat for the man
who knows what American spirit
is, who keeps his heart right even
when everything else is wrong, the
man with the courage to do, the
willingness to endure, the absolute
determination to keep up the fight
to the bitter end. Against such a
man adverse fate is almost impo-
tent.-Charleston News and Cour-
