CAPT, HOREJS
WILL NOT
PLAY

Capt. Leo Horejs of the Taco
ma High school team will not
play in the Thanksgiving day
game against Lincoln, according
to an announcement made by
Coach Il. Il. Perkins. DIR. Read,
who examined the player, said
that he could play and probably
feel but little discomfort, but 1t
would not be well to do so. With
HOrejs out either Towne or Ives
will play the fullback position.
TOwne played a sensational game
last Thanksgiving when he took
Horejs' place, the latter being in
eligible.
The rest of the lineup will
probably be the same as the start
of the Queen Anne game. The
squad is weakened slightly by the
retirement of several of the play
ers. copeland, halfback, is not
eligible; Johnson, halfback, did
not think he was getting enough
chance with the first team and is
playing with the second team and
Mulvey has cashed in his uniform
for the same reason. This leaves
only Coblentz and Rushmer for
halfbacks.
The position which Mulvey oc-
cupied will be filled by Barck,
who, with Crane, has returned to
eligibility.
Yesterdays practice completes
the preparation for the final game
of the season.

followers, however. believe he is
too rugged for the San Francisco

which to back this opinion. That
Wolgast is sure he will win Is
shown by the way he is betting
his own money. Tom Jones, the

dreds of dollars at odds of 10 to

The second fact of Importance is that
he raised l25 tons of sweet corn from

dollars ton, aggregatng the handsome
sum of 81 ,250.
Right here let us emphasize the fact
that some farmers claim they can not
profitably produce sweet corn for can
ming purposes, but inasmuch as the can
ming factory pays $40 ton for $50
pounds of green corn and returns the cob
and husks to the farmer, the latter real
ly sells his corn to good advantage, to
say nothing of the feed.
Our successful farmer has two silos
full of cut corn stalks and another filled
with cobs and husks, and he figures that
this is very profitable crop, consider
ing the fact that he has all his feed in
addition to his 81 $50 received from the
factory. He sells his milk in bulk to
those who retail it in Winooski and he
also has handsome income from the
sale of potatoes, hogs and calves.
If $4,000 worth of products can be
sold from this farm of 1866 acres, the
same thing can be accomplished with
other farms of equal size or as much can
be done in proportion.

Dynamic Philanthropy.

! The town of Ashburnham, in Worces.
ter county, Mass, is blessed among
towns-blessed in its continued hold on
native sons who have gone out into the
world and prospered. II has a Gushing
academy, a Stevens library, an Adams
grammar school, and, of course a sol
diers' monumental benefactions.
Now lvers Whitney Adams, native
of the town and a wealthy Boston manu-
facturer, has bestowed his gift. 1t is
worth mentioning IL is an example
to other givers. This because of the
character, rather than the size of the
gift. What Mr.. Adams has provided is
not church, or school, or library,
or hospital, or a public hall 1t is a
utiltaran water supply drawn from a
neighboring lake and sent by pipes
through all parts of Ashburnham Center
and South Ashburnham.
Benefactors of the public have been
educated to give while they live-they
do not so often "drape their charities in
the shadows of the tomb" But scarcely
more than a beginning has been made
toward making the giving more intimate
in its relation to human lives. Nothing
is more conventional and initiative than
philanthropy. Witness the over-endow-
ment of our educational institutions
something that led leading educator
not long ago to eXclsim that the best
way 10 serve many of the colleges and
universities of America would be TO give
them nothing for ten years. The coun-
try is fairly well colleged, and churched,
and hospitaled.
But many communities need better
water supplies, and milk supplies. and
ice supplies. and coal supplies. All of
the principal cities need better hous-
ing. If the next generation is to be
worthy of the American name The bows
and girls need more places to play in.
A proper market system would do more
TO reduce the cost Of living and to make
people eontented than a dozen libraries.
What the world needs is dynamic rather
than static phiianthrcpic foundations
institutions that do, instead Of merely
teaching how to do. The Ashburnham

Perhaps the reported dearth is not

to the fact that land owners have awak.

It may be that the owners are refusing
to sell the trees at the extremely low
prices offered them, knowing that the

cities, who make tremendous margin
of profit. Vermont people at any rate
