 Princeton, Nov sBelieving that the Harvard game showed the need for greater offensive power on the part of Princeton, the Tiger coaches are devoting their main efforts along this line and as a result the orange and black squad is showing greater ability to advance the ball in the face of de- termined resistance. DeWitt's kick ing is steadily improving and the young mans toe probably will be a big factor in the coming games. Sammy" White still does great work at end.

TURE.

The Baroness Won Preuschen, ar
fist and newspaper correspondent
of Berlin. Germany. had a thrilling
experience while in this city recently.
and though the baroness has Travelled
extensively throughout both hemis-
pheres and visited many foreign
lands, meeting with several marrow
escapes from death. yet the incident
here related seems to have un-
nerved her more than other more
serious happenings.
Baroness Won Preuschen came to
Florida from Chicago and while there
was a guest of The Seaside Inn at
DaytOna Beach, but during that time
she was frequently entertained by
Mrs. George H. Munroe of this city.
to whom she had been directed by
an artist friend of Mrs Munroe's in
Chicago.
The baroness found some very at
tractive scenery in the Munroe &
Stevens groves and made several ex-
+; cursiOns to the groves to paint from
nature those beauty spots that ap'
pealed to her most strongly.
On one occasion she desired to
complete a panel, which included a
grape fruit and tangerine, with theil
yellow and red co!Oring, group OF
graceful palms filling in the vista.

her efforts to find the spot where

heard her cries and came to her
rescue. when it was found she was
close to the place she sought and
had probably been travelling in a

were not in regular order, but stood
as nature had planted them, it being

grew.
