'em thunder. They are worse rot
ten than they ever were before
hiring players, buying players and
all such stuff"
No doubt all he said, and much
along the same line he didn't say,
is painfully true.
Prep school athletic conditions
are unquestionably bad. And get
ting worse. Players are hired like
farm hands. We don't know this,
but it's true and can be proved by
anybody who is willing to make the
effort.
man who owns big prep
school told me once: I'VE hire play
ers. Sure. What's wrong with
1t? There's no rule against it. We
don't belong to any association. We
don't violate any rule by playing
hired hands.
Look here" he added. I've got
all my money tied up in this school.
I've got to make it pay-and | do.
The way | do it is to advertise
with a winning team. A team that
cleans up means added patronage.
If | have a winning football and
baseball team l can virtually afford

it,"
There you have it-winning
teams pay; there's no rule against
it. Therefore, hire players!
DONT ask me the solution-and
- don't hatter yourself you
know one that will really solve.
The first step and the one that
should have been taken years ago
is to form a prep school athletic
association along the lines of the
$. l. A. \. That would do some
good, but not lot. You can't wipe
out wrongs with laws. as reformers
have been finding out for years.
Then what?
Goodness knows! -.
Until you can make the men who
have their money tied up in schools
appreciate that. in the long run.
professionalism in prep school sport
doesn't pay, there will be no lasting
reforms
At the rate progress has been
made in that direction of late years
the desired reforms win be effected
about thirty seven hundred years
hence.
Please don't understand from
this. by the way. that all schools
are doing things they ought not.
A lot of schools in Georgia and the
surrounding states are clean as a
polished diamond in athletics and
in everything else And a lot Of
them aren't.

seem to think I'm crazy or untruth-
full when ! tell them we don't pay
anybody to come to our college"
What can you expect Of a lot Of
boys who get paid for going to
prep schools to play football and
baseball? Naturally they expect
something out of going to college.
And do they get 1t?
Frequently.

After July LIST, every single apple
sold in Wisconsin must conform to a
new law passed by the last congress.
BY the terms Of this remarkable stat
ute, all apples are divided into three
grades, the highest grade being two
and one-half inches in diameter and
the two lower grades each one-fourth
inch less. With a diameter under two
inches, an apple is not considered an
apple at all, but only an ordinary scrub,
without market value.

ONE Of the latest fool suggestions for
legislation this time credited to Insur-
ance Commissioner Ekern Of this state,
is the passage of law whereby ten
ant must pay the city the entire cost
of putting out a fire in the building he
occupies, unless the fire was due to
some defect in the building, in which
case the expense devolves upon the
owner. No one, except a rascal, wants
to suffer loss by fire and to have the
loss further rubbed in is merely an adj
ditional loss.

One day, in the presence Of the Fox,
The Tortoise was Dragging to the Hare
Of his ability as a runner. The Fox
vas very derisive of the Tortoise's pre-
tensions, whereupon the Tortoise.
winking at the Hare, offered to bet
the Fox considerable sum of money
that he could outrun the Hare. The
Fox lost no time in putting up the
money, and off the contestants started.
The Hare took a big lead at once, but
after getting comfortably out of sight,
wandered away from the track and fell
asleep The Tortoise accordingly was
the first to reach the winning post.
The Fox went off cursing at the loss
Of his money, and when he had gone
the Tortoise divided his winnings with
the Hare. Ever since that time bet
ting on races has been an uncertain

voice, "and hope I'll soon git it down

points III our characters no less than
In our career, and often the two are

be considered apart. It is worth
while sometimes to trace back to
their source our ideas and impress

much we owe to training, SO much to
elected study and chosen companion
