Gov. McCreary has openly deelar-
ed that he favors an uninstructed
delegation from Kentucky to the de-
mocratic National convention, and
those who are really for democratic
success will undoubtedly agree that
he is exactly right. Kentucky's vote
is going TO be for the democratic
nominee. whoever he may be. We
must pick a man who can carry the
doubtful states. This l. one time
when the cause is greater than any
man. and he's no patriot who puts
the personal desire for his eandi-
date above his love of party's sue
cess. There plenty of good timber
in the democratic ranks. Let's
name the strongest man, and win
this time.

The frosty signs of winter recalls
fond memories of boyhood to B. 4.
Kennepohl. president of the board of
works To a crowd of listeners at the
city building he told of the winter
sports in Holland where he spent
many happy days skating on the ca
mails for which that country is famous.

tor would give us a day or when skat-

Havre to Delft a distance of thirty
miles We would skate in couples and

tourists. All along the route ice"
tents were placed TO afford a means
by which the travellers could stop for
lunch without taking of their skates,
The ice remains frozen for a period
of three months and a half, so it pays
for the builders of the ice" tents to
make substantial ones.
The wooden shoe custom is anoth-
er object of interest to tourists. Many
people believe that wooden shoes are
worn on all occasions. but this is a
mistake. They are only worn while
working about the farm and doing
work which would soil the shoes in
such manner as to scatter dirt about
the house If they were not removed
The wooden shoes are always taken
of in the house"

De PAW FAILS TO
HOLD THE QUAKERS
Earlham Scores Thirteen
Points While DePauw Is
Held to Field Goal.

For the first time in the history of
Reid Field Earlham beat DePauw here
today, 13 to 8. The game was fast and
exciting, and at no time until the last
whistle blew was either team sure of
victory. The game consisted of the
new-style football to a great extent,
but both teams resorted to line plug
ging several times during the game.
There were no serious injuries in the
game and very few penalties, so it was
played in record time.
Each team made one substitution
DePauw won the toss and took the
advantage of the wind. Brownell kick
ed to DePauw's thirty-yard line, Grady
returned the ball eight yards, then
Earlham held them for downs and
Roam kicked to Brownell, who ran the
entire Methodist team for Earlhams
first marker. The Quakers gave him a
perfect interference. Earlham kicked
to DePauw again, and, after DePauw
had made two first downs Earlham
held them for downs by a series of
end runs. Earlham had advanced the
ball to DePauw's ifteen-yard line. and.
after three unsuccessful attempts at
the line, Bogue dropped back for a
place kick, but instead Of kicking 1t
threw to Capt. Guyer, who was already
across DePauw's goal line. Bogue fail
ed to kick goal and the quarter ended:
Earlham, 13; DePauw, 0.
OePauw Takes a Brace.
DePauw came back strong in the
second quarter and by use of two trick
plays worked ball to Earlham's twenty
two-yard line, where Rowan booted the
ball over the bar for the Old Geld's
only score. Earlham received the kick

sY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.
There are. many funny things in this
world.
One of them the way people enter
tain themselves.
Or think they're being entertained,
Sometimes the self obsession is SO
great they never discover the fact
they're being bored.
Then there are others who know it
but think it's the proper thing to do.
So they pretend to be enjoying them
selves when. in truth, they are bored
within an inch of their lives.
Never was this so obtruded upon the
consciousness of this column as upon
a certain evening last week.
When, in her professional capacity,
she visited several places Of alleged
amusement of a varying character.
First at a theater where She beheld
An extraordinary performance called
"The Fatal Wedding"
Being somewhat vague as to the rea-
son for being Of this travesty on life
and regarding all marriages as more or
less fatal-she had leisure, between
hard worked up thrills, to take few
deep sea observations Of the attentu-
ated audience and the effect the i'm
possible theatrics had upon the lat
ter's units and ensemble.
And it must be said for the audience
that it rose to the occasion.
That is, it manifested its apprecia-
30 h.
by more or less sincere applause.
This was what is commonly called
"a cheap show"
That is, the admission was not ex-
cessive and the scenic accessorI es car
ried about with the company nottcea-
BILE for their absence.
But members of the company show
ed themselves possessed of talents
which might have been successfully
exploited in a more natural medium of
dramatic presentation.
In other words the play was rotten
but the people good
Nothing, however, could be more ut
terly preposterous and out of all SEM
blance to life than the play itself
The Vaccinations of the villain and
vtllainess were horrid to contemplate.
The abused heroine starved to sob
music in an attic chamber.
The promising child actress whose
entrance was heralded with a fanfare
from the single occupant of the orches-
ira pit did mature wonders.
And the American flag was dragged
in by the hair.
Oh, / must have some fire for OUT
boiled potatoes or else poor little
brother frankie will starve-and, oh
my poor mama, lying SO white and i'll
on her cot-oh what shall l do-ha!
the flag-I will start a fire with the
flag
Flag pulled from it's conspicuous hid
ing-place under something or other
and unfurled dramatically down stage.
Didn't work.
Not a handicap.

So
No, l cannot-I cannot burn our
beautiful flag-which floats DER the
land of the free and the home Of the
brave-but hist! for our lovely boiled
potatoes I will break the stick upon
which it is stuck and with this will I
boil our spuds.
I cannot cannot desecrate the
Flag
Just here the vil1afness oozes
through crack in the wall and is con-
cealed in full view behind a cupboard.
And then the noble but fascinating
divorced husband comes in to collect
the rent little recking.
But his heart is melted DER the art.

And so it goes.
Why such stuff is still Labeled out

And yet there be those who profess
to be entertained with such theatric
horrors.
On the other hand are those who
will sit out debates by the expurgated

For twas to this high-brow enter

A dismal gloom pervaded every cor
ner.
Two infatuated ones billed and COO
ed on an upper and isolated perch in
the balcony.
A grey-haired woman, marooned in a
desert of empty seats, sat with elbow
propped head.
Hobson, braced as though on the
deck Of the rolling Merrimac, was ut
tering his blood curdling prophesies
about the dour and canny Jap
The while our noble Ex-Governor sat
in the offing examining his manuscript.
And ever and anon the speaker
quaffed from the handy ice-pftcher.
1t was a depressing, if edifying, oc-
casion.
And the nearaudience punctuated
the intervals with perfunctory and mel
ancholy applause.
Mighty few people give a "dem," as
our friend Mr.. Mantalini used to say,
whether the world is disarmed or not.
Unless there's war on and patriot
ism is at fever heat. Then, of course,
We all want it armed.
But to sit out. in coldblood and for
certain hours, debate on the question
which is being debated for so much
per and which wouldn't be debated If
the so much per wasn't Forthcoming
is another thing.
The affair had its interesting phases.
Few there would be, however, who,
pushed to the wall, but would admit,
under operations Of the third degree,
that they were bored to extinction
with the whole thing
Still you'll find 'em vigorously de
nying it.
For the last thing we do is to be
honest.
And the very last after that to admit
the thing that really gives us pleasure
We think we must pretend to enjoy
the things that other people think we
ought to enjoy.
And we will therefore sit out hours
in weariness and utter boredom nau-
seated to our innermost being with
longing for the things that We want
and with disgust for the things we
have.
For the things that we think enter
tain us and the things that really do
are separated more frequently than
not by a line of cleavage as distinct
as day from night.
