attitude of the church toward divorced
persons Should be of disciplinary charac-
ter in most cases, and lastly, the church
should aspire to a leadership Of whole
some public sentiment against divorce
The Rev l. G. Smart set forth few
suggestions which he said should work
toward the prevention of hasty marriages
and necessarily toward the prevention Of
divorces. He said that, in his opinion. the
contracting parties to a marriage should
be required to take oath befor' the city
clerk when obtaining a marriage license
that the statements contained in the
license we're true. He also suggested that
the publishing Of the marriage .anns and
the residence Of both parties might lessen
hasty marriages.
The effect might be wholesome, said
Or. Smart, if ministers should uniformly
decline to perform the marriage ceremony
for divorced persons, but make it ncces-
sary, rather for such persons to seek a
civil marriage ceremony. Marriage, in
the true sense, said Or. Smart, rests not
on a contract but rather on the ideal.
still the law performs a great service in
many instances in releasing unfortunate
women from the hands Of abusive nus
hands.

SIXTY
IN CROSS

Iowa City. a., Nov. 26-Sixty rum
ners representing twelve of the leading
universities and colleges of the west
will toe the mark in front Of the Iowa
gymnasium today when the annual Big
Eight cross country race starts over
the five mile course just west Of the
Iowa river.
The event will be the biggest thing
of its kind " held in the state and
probably in the west. Every men,
Der Of the Big Eight with the excep-
ton of Illinois will be represented by
a team and five Of the six Missouri val
ley conference schools. Kansas, Ne
braska, Drake, Missouri and Ames
will also be entered.
The strong Ames team. which romp-
ed away with the Missouri valley IT,
tie at Kansas City last Saturday is ex-
pected to make a bid for first place.
The Aggte unners showed great form
last week and If they can hold 1t
should hurry the best in the Big Eight.
Minnesota is relied upon to head the
other conference teams. with Purdue
and Chicago we'll up. Nebraska ought
to make a good showing also.
!. The race started about 2 o'clock and
will be finished on Iowa field just be.
fore the whistle blows for the first
KICKOFF in the Iowa-Northwestern foot
ball game. The last quarter mill will
be run on the cindre track on Iowa

NEWS OF SPORTDOM

on the Glass IA matter. There last
week. as the dispatches have told. the
national association voted favorably
on a proposition for a change, by
which Eastern league, American as
ISOLATION, and Pacific Coast league
shall be grouped in a new AA division.
Southern and Western remaining, as
at present. in Glass A. This would
give the three leagues named special
drafting privileges owe their present
two associates.
There seems to be a general i'm
preston that the San Antonio action
creates the IA class. This is not so.
To mako the action operative the ma
tional agreement must be changed.
There are three parties to this. and
both National and American leagues
must vote favorably on the national
association proposition before the in
strument can be amended. 1t is said
that II amending starts the majors will
do a little switching on draft prices
that will cause a roar from the IA
trio. 1t seems improbable that the
American league will accept the new
order as 1t stands, for the Western
league has remained in Glass A only
through President Johnson's influence,
and he will be appealed to in this case,
Western and Three-I, which made the
fight against the change, are both rat
ed above their proper classes at pres
ent, entirely through political influ-
ence. And this Is mighty in base
ball. az in other business propo-
sitions.

RUSTLERS WILL
SOON BE SOLD

Boston. Nov. 25.-That the Boston
National league team is to be sold at
the time the directors will hold their
annual meeting next week is the story
that Is now going the rounds.
1t Is we'll known that President Rus
sell received many offers for the club
since the a ended, and it is. I'M
derstood that but a few thousand dol
lars stood in his way several weeks
ago when he received an offer from
Western baseball magnates.
That plans were under way for tho
sale of the club when Mr.. Russell was
stricken down with his final illness is
not denied by those who arc in close
touch with the club affairs.
1t is said that l.. Coues Page, a for
mer Rustler stakeholder. is in line to
buy up a controlling interest which
was held by President Russell.
The disposition. of the Boston club
will probably be known soon. as 1t is
expected that the will of the late presi-
dent will be made known within a few
days.
The executors Of Mr.. Russell's estate
will be In Boston the first Of next
week, and something may then be an
nounced- as to the disposition Of the
club.
It is believed that Fred Tenney will
remain manager Of the club, and that
all of the dead presidents plans will
be carried out for the year.

OF course she did not understand

she had she would have felt rightfully
f1attered, as a 3.5 is an excellent mark
and rarely given.
A 2.5 means passable. That is the
lowest mark that will pass at the
academy. If a girl is attractive and
jolly. but without any particularly
striking beauty. she is put down as .
2.5.
Before a girl can be spoken of az
deserving a 3 she must be very pretty
indeed. To merit o SIS her beauty
must be striking. 1t is seldom any
girl. no matter how beautiful or att

obtained. It is seldom given by mid
shipmen to more than one girl in his
i whole career in the navy.

There is no doubt that the johnson at

BASKETBALL HAS
AGGIES' ATTENTION

Fargo, N. D.. Nov. 25.-The atten-
ton Of every one at the Aggie camp

most popular sport for winter among
the colleges. After a brief rest until
Thanksgiving for the football men
who expect to get into the game and
also a well earned rest for the coach,
lightly clad candidates to commence
the winters hard campaign and "a
der the able leadership of Captain
Wheeler, good results are expected.
A very heavy schedule 10 being pre-
pared by the local management and
the fans of Fargo will be given some
thing in the line Of basketball that
will eclipse anything seen in that line
heretofore.

with the s. SIS. Of Wahpeton, N. N. I.

leges.
A trip is being planned to include
some OF the chances mentioned,
throughout the southern part Of. this
state and S. D: during January. and
so that by the time the team COM
mences their schedule here they will
be at their best.
The aggies hope that a change can
be made, in the rules for basketball
this year. The conference. has been
playing under the A. A. U. rules be-
fore. but 1t is the opinion Of most Of
the basketball men that a change ia
the more popular intercollegiate rules
would help the game.
The intercollegiate rules do away
with the calling Of so many fouls
which make a faster game. and vari-
u other rules that. will tend to i'm
prove and better. the game. The A. c.
rules in s. D. last year and were well
pleased with the different style OF
play.
