The Yale football eleven to-day had
the stiffest scrimmaging OF the week
and may be the last. The coaches
will ,leok the players over tomorrow
afternoon and get Trainer John
Mack's advice before they order actual
football.
Most Of them believe that the team
should have two full days rest be-
fore meeting Princeton Saturday. In
tlications arc that q long signal driil
without scrimma&ing will be tho pro-
xrans for tomorrow. The most iin-
portant development OF to-days drill
was the work OF Carl Gallaucr at
tackle. In spite Of his broken hand
his playing was OF the stellar variety
He played the entire afternoon ut
tackle and all except Tom Shevlin
warmly praised his play.
Paul's eye was bruised in ycster-
days scrimmage and to-day he did
not DIN his uniform. Jesse SraldMg
was IN the scrimmaging to-day for
the first time in three weeks. He
resumed his position at right half

The summer visitor topic is fire.
quently discussed by the Vermont
press, whose aim is to develop such a
in this state as will not only
attract the summer visitor but make
ii possible to take the best care OF
him when he comes-such good care as
to induce him to come again and
again. The Rutland Herald insists
that the country hotels and boarding
houses of Vermont are wholly made
quate to the needs and uses of those
whom Vermont should make it her
first duty to attract; and the contem-
porary goes on to say that 'if the
state publicity bureau can see its
way clear to calling attention to
this need of Vermont in publications
devoted to the interests of hotel men
and caterers, it is not at all unlikely
that some concerted movement will
result to the delight and JOY OF many
who have never visited Vermont, and
to the permanent profit of the state
itself. Ludlow Tribune.
State Highway Commissioner G..
W. Gates has been in Bennington this
week and in private conversation
Wednesday evening he stated that
one of the things that he has noted
this summer in his trips about the
state is the improvement in the coun-
try hotels. This is interesting and
important for it shows that the hotel
men have caught the spirit of the
forward movement. There are hun
dreds of small hotels in Vermont and
a large majority of them in the past
have been very poor. Most of them
are located in pretty country villages
and would be simply overwhelmed
with business If their owners and
landlords would study the new era
in the hotel business. II the smaller
hotel men in Vermont would pay q
visit to the Bromley Inn al Peru. the
little hotel at Simonsyile or the Wal
pole Inn at Walpole, N H., and see
what can be done with small hotel
in a small town and then follow out
the lessons learned, We believe il
would quadruple their business and
their profits.
