A Prayer for the Idle.

The September American Maya
zine opens with the following PRAYER
by Walter Rauschenbusch:
20 God, we remember with pain
and pity the thousands of our broth
ers and sisters who seek honest work
and seek in vain. For though the
unsatisfied wants of men are many,
and though our land is wide and calls
for labor, yet these thy sons and
daughters have no place to labor,
and are turned away in humiliation
and despair when they seek it. o
righteous God, we acknowledge our
common guilt for the disorder of our
industry, which thrusts even willing
workers into the degradation of idle
ness and want, and teaches some to
love the sloth which once they feared
and hated
"We remember also with sorrow
and compassion the idle rich, who
have vigor of body and mind and yet
produce no useful thing. Forgive
them for loading the burden of their
support on the bent shoulders of the
working world. Forgive them for
wasting in refined excess what would
feed the pale children Of the poor.
Forgive them for setting their splen-
dor before the thirsty hearts of the
young, Turing them to theft or shame
by the lust of eye and flesh. For
give them for taking pride in their
selfish lives and despising those by
whose toll they live. Forgive them
for appeasing their better self by
pretended duties and injurious char
tiles. We beseech you to awaken
them by the new voice of thy spirit
that they may look up into the stern
eyes of Christ and may be smitten
with the blessed pangs of repentance.
Grant them strength of soul to rise
up like men from their shame and
give just return of labor for all
they receive and enjoy.
And to our whole nation do thou
grant wisdom to create a world in
which none will be forced to idle in
want, and none shall be able to idle
in luxury, but in which all shall
know the health of wholesome work
and the sweetness of well-earned
rest"

mass meeting that was ever held in
the history % Georgetown athletics
Massed in Castor Hall last night,
hundreds Of Georgetown undergradu-
ates and alumni heard speeches that
aroused the Blue and Gray spirit to
the highest pitch Men who in the
past had done what the present team
is expected to do today made spirited
speeches. Seven former captains who
mad led Georgetown teams In victory
and in defeat told experiences that
brought forth cheer after cheer, and
the final keynote was struck by Cy
Cummings, q former Georgetown star
and now a member OF the Maryland
Legislature. who said:
Every man OF you here tonight ha=
seen Georgetown teams IN ueleat, but
there is not one Of us who has ever
seen a Georgetown team in disgrace
In the big game you are going to see
the eleven in neither defeat nor dis
grace. but leaving the field carrying the
football we have waited nine long years
TO win. The eyes Of Georgetown men in
every nation on the globe are on the
team, and the team knows il, and when
the game IS over, Virginia viii know
it."
At the mass meeting, for the first
time, Coach Nielsen admitted that he
expected 10 win.
At noon the gridiron at Georgetown
field was in perfect condition, assuring
every encouragement for a fast and
open game. The wind was blowing d.
TeCtly across the field, meaning that
neither team will have any great ad-
vantage in the matter of punts being
carried down the field In the breeze.

are attracting most attention are the

ern football methods between the
East and West, and many believe that

The annual game between Princeton
and Yale never fails to command
widespread interest This year Is no
exception despite the fact that the
Tigers have had q splendid season.
while Yale has already met two dis
asters, and seems fated 10 suffer an
other today.
For the last FIVE year. Harvard has
come 70 look upon her Dartmouth
game as second only TO that Of Yale
and while IL is conceded that the
A-L4AL5Du Will Win from the Green.
there IS little doubt that the Cam
bridge eleven viii be required TO exert
more effort to defeat the New Hamp-
shire aggregation than in any contest
or her schedule this year.
Pennsylvania has q score 70 settle
with Michigan, and the Quakers viii
make a mighty effort 70 obtain re-
Nenge FOR last years defeat by the
Wolverines on Franklin Field bv a
score Of Il to 6. The Red and Blue
is without doubt one Of the strongest
elevens IN the East, and while the
Quakers are ia rom confident they

Westerners.

Madison Square Garden today.
The children gathered from the va
rious orphan asylums, founding insti-
tutions. and the tenement homes were
the guests Of Alfred G. Vanderbilt, al
ways central figure at the horse show.
At his invitation the little ones watch
ed the magnificent parade Of thorough
breds that opened the big spectacle in
the beautifully decorated garden. The
-four hundred" paid as much attention
to the children as to the horses, and
nearly as much as to the gowns.
Galt's Kilties. a Canadian semi-mili-
tary band, marched into the arena and
when the trUmpets sounded boots and
saddles" the big event was on. The
judging Of horses began Immediately.

The feature OF this wears horse show

Army officers from almost every
European country as well as the United

KING OUT OF GAME
FOR REST OF YEAR
Navy Captain Has Typhoid and
Will Not Be in Army
Contest
Contest.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd. Nov. 12-It seems
practically certain today that CAPTAIN
King Of the Navy football team. will
not be able to play again this season.
His illness Is now declared to be
typhoid fever, in which event il is
idle to speculate on his getting into
the final game witt the Army. For
tunately for the Navy. the team is
well supplied with substitutes. and
Kings absence will not greatly
weaken the team. It IS probable that
ex-Captain Clay viii lead the team In
the game with Carlisle and probably In
tho Army game.
The Washington times., 1910-11-12
Virginia Captain Reticent.

None of the Virginia coaches would
make any comment about the game ex-
cept TO insist that they were not con-
ceding a Georgetown victory, while
Captain Seyer said:
Il would rather not make any pre-
dictions as TO the probable outcome, but
Virginia will be there, and in a manner
that may be surprising"
Tie only disappointment at George
town today was the fact that neither
Dunn nor Walsh, tHo regular backs,
would be able 10 start In place OF
these men Costello, and Kraft VIII play
This pair viii be told to 90 in and
play TO the very limit. and should either
give way IL is understood that Walsh
OT Dunn viii be in readiness TO go to
the relief II is an open secret that
both Walsh and Dunn VIII be in before
the final whistle is blown.
Aside from Walsh and Dunn the gem
eral physical condition OF the George
town team is excellent
Unlike Captain Geyer. of Virginia.
Captain Daley, of Georgetown, makes
no attempt 10 conceal his absolute con-
fidence in the ability OF the men he Will
lead. At the training table today he
said 10 the squad:
Fellows. there Is no use in trying 20
hide the fact. We know We have the
better team, and ] know how far YOU
fellows are prepared TO fight before
YOU ever let Virginia wiz. today. We've
all got TO go the limit. but we will win
or else I know nothing about football
teams"
What the captain told the players
was but an aftermath Of the greatest
