Fortv Mem in the SQUAD.

West Point, Nov 2S.-The Army
team had it's last practice today in
prep -ration for the game with the
Navy in Philadelphia on Saturday.
The coaches were still undecided to-
day as to the left end and right
guard. Merrill was in the former
position last evening and Hutson at
guard. Markoe'S return to the squad
was hailed with delight by coaches
and men. He fits well with the de-
fensiVe plays.
The team will leave for PHILADELPHIA

Slippery Field Would Have
Been Disadvantage.
All Schools Still Playing End
Season Today.

Here's the most likely lineup for the
start of the game which settles the
championship of Kansas on Aggie field
this afternoon. There will likely be
frequent changes and there would be
little surprise were every man avail
able used before the contest is ended.
The game will be one of the hard
fought kind and fresh men may be
inserted at frequent intervals. The
Aggie style of contest is to wear down
the opposition and then pile up big
score and this is what the LoWman
proteges count upon today.

minutes spent in signal work to linn
ber them up, they so into the biggest
game of the year.
The Lowman team today is resting,
waiting eagerly for summons to the
field of battle. The greatest crowd
that ever gathered to witness a game
on Aggie field is anticipated.
Coach Driver would not risk a pre-
diction upon the outcome of the bat
tie. He is pleased with the weather.
Rain or snow would have given the
the weight against WaShburn. Coach
Lowman merely says he is worried
about the result. The teams seem
to be so evenly matched that neither
coach is going into the game conf

There will be a new champion of

ial train leaves Manhattan for To-

st. Louis Meets Holy Cross.

ST. Louis. Nov. 2S.-The ST. Louis
university football team will line up
against the eleven from the Holy
Cross college. in the final contest of
the local grldiroE season here this af-
ternoon with nj ore regular Ia ckle
Schooner missing. The local team
will be outweighed nearly eight
pounds to the man. After trying
many new combinations during the
past two weeks, Coach Dennie of the
local squad is satisfied that he has
line that will hold the heavy Holy
Cross backs without much trouble.
With Sieh at center in place of DON
ovan, whose passing was inaccurate,
the line will show more speed than
it has at any time this season. The
backfeld, also has been strengthened
and will carry the ball in most of the
plays.
Both teams concluded their train
ing yesterday with light signal drills
and, with the exception of petty hurts
all hands are in good shape for the
game.

fCopyright: 1912: By Laura Jean Libbeyl Tv % often plain truths are mistaken for
 compliments, but taking it all in all it is the pretty little compliments now
 and then which make a mans life worth while to him. If young man who has to count his dollars has taken a girl to . theater it warns his heart to hear her say as he leaves her at her door, What q splendid play you selected I thank you ever so much for taking me. I enjoyed every moment of it." It may be the same compli- mentary remark which that young girl makes to every man who has taken her out for an evening pastime, but of course he does not know that.
 He walks homeward with an elastic step and light heart, whistling few bars of a love song. Those few words raised him to . seventh heaven, as it were

Dear Miss Libbey: I have been an inter- ested reader of your helpful and necessary de- partment for some time now, and decided to take you up on your proposition to correspond on the subjects of love and marriage. l notice you always answer the question How can l meet and interest some nice man? that the lonely girls write by telling them to be modest, unassuming, and retiring, and they won't have any trouble attracting the men. I believe you're wrong. Until six months ago l modest and retiring with men and as result got al- most no invitations to go out with them grew desperate. l saw myself on the road to Old Maiddom and decided to try something else. So l smiled, grew chummy, and hrted with all the men I came into tact with, and I've had four proposals l didn't really love these first four men, but I'm just crazy about

n fifth. He's handsome, cultured, is gradu- ate of Chicago university, has plenty of money, and good position. He's been coming to see me three or four times a week and insists on hugging and loving me most of the time he's here. Two weeks ago I got ashamed of this familiarity and so let him know care fully, tactfully, and indirectly as possible that he must stop it, at least some of it. He hasn't been to see me since I meet him on the street and he speaks kindly, but I know he thinks I'm old fashioned. Now I'm much in love with this man--he really is desirable in every way Shall let my whole lifes happiness slip away like this? I'm if I go back to the old ways I can win him back My girl friends who have married say it's absolutely necessary to give man these liberties in my it has certainly proved most successful for me.

He tells her that she is fairer than any other woman, that her eyes are bluer than larkspurs the wood volets which he cullad in boyhood's joyous days; that life would not be worth the living to him without her; and she believes him.

On our way home l told her I had never practiced such graces the putting on of girls overshoes, and would rather she would attend to such things her self. Did 1 do the right thing in telling her this, or is an old bachelor expected to break his back stopping to put on a girls over shoes. Do you think it looks well to see an ugly old bachelor, 26, engaged in business for himself, going about with a pretty little high school girl of 16?

 "W Well, met young man and he seemed to be real nice. I introduced him to my friends and he asked if he could take me home. As l am not a very good looking girl I asked him where he lived and he told me, and l said to him would not think of letting young man take me home as lived too far. He said he did not mnd but I said my girl friend was going to stay with me and I would not be afraid, so he wanted to know when he could see me. just thought for joke l would give him my phone call and if he made an appoint ment to meet on corner to go to dance would make a date and not fill it, as he was stranger to me and l did not care. But he phoned me and asked me if he could call at the house Sunday evening and as l had no engagement. thought he could come. I did not plan on him coming, but he came, and have found him a perfect gentleman. He went home about 10 80 and he said he would phone me, and he phoned the next Sun day and came over and took me to the theater, and I think he is just fine.

 When he parts at the door from her she hurries out of the carriage and up the steps with an impatient good night. He doesn't know as to whether she has had q good time or not she hasn't said anything about it.
 He is a bit disappointed that she does not express herself upon the subject; he has exerted every means in his power to make the affair enjoyable. He makes up his mind then and there never to spend a dollar her again. He decides to let some other fellow who1e society she might better prefer take her.
 Of the two girls the second may have by far the kinder heart-aye, and the most loving disposition--but she has not her knack of paying a pretty little well turned compli- ment at the right moment The ball may have been a delight to her such she never knew of before, and his waltzing perfection but she may have been bashful that she hadn't the courage to express her pleasure in so many words, lest he think her bold unmaidenly.

meets with such unbounded success. If you questioned her she would have to reply roguishly:
 II am told that I appear to single out every man in the audience, paying each the compliment of smiling. Of course every one knows that that would be impossible, for with the glare of the footlights between us one face is not distinguishabe from another. Yet as long as each man thinks so, and takes it for specially bestowed compliment, why should I demur or contradict it? It adds hugely to my popularity. The actress who does not pay her audience the compliment of a smile rarely succeeds"
 The stenographer who works for the grum- py old bachelor often holds her position against newcomers by her judicious use of a will timed compliment on rare occasion, such as Indeed, it is a pleasure to be in your employ, Mir. Blank. You change your mind so seldom while dictating. It is truly kind of you to be so lenient with the many mistakes l make What employer would not feel more kindly disposed to the woman who paid him such delicate little compliments and hesitate to dispense with her services to probably engage sarcastic young womsn whose demeanor showed him that she would no doubt want to run the office?
 Where is the man who will detest a woman for paying him the little compliment of sending him card or a written verse ex- pressing the hope that the coming new year will be bright and prosperous one for him ? He will think of the little compliment even though he tears up that card.
 Every man really cares to make good i'm pression and he likes to be told that he has done so. The gushing compliment always fails of its purpose. It is the pretty little compliment which is paid to a man tha t counts and bears the best fruit. There is certainly no harm in it and it cheers many a mans heart to battle with greater en- deavors.
 The man whose heart is hardened against pretty little speech upon womans lips ls so set in his ways that she may never hope to influence his heart, though it has been said that no man is so nvunerable that com plment upon subject or the other will not make him feel kindlier to who utters it.
