TEAMS GOOD ON ATTACK.
But Weakness Appears In Defense of
Football Elevens.

Judging by the football games al
ready played. it seems as though the
attacking force of most of the impor-
tant teams is going to be stronger than
the defense this year.
Most of the games played thus far
have shown larger totals rolled up by
both the winning and the losing team
than We're made III 1912. OF course
this was not so in every. case particu-
larly at Princeton and Ithaca. How
ever. it was a noticeable fact i'll so
many games that it is fair to reason
that ut the present time the attack is
better developed than the defense at
the majority of the colleges.
Those who are at all familiar with
the game Of football know that it is a
great deal easier to build up Il strong
attack than it is to round out Il good
defense. An organic plan can lie laid
out for offensive football, and men can
be drilled to do certain things at Ger
tain moments While an organic de
Tense is attempted it never reaches the
same perfection as well built up at
tack, and In the main defensive foot
ball depends more upon the individual
ability of the players than upon any

didn't begin to write effectively until
she was past 40.

only to remember Gladstone and Dis

COST OF DESTROYING LIFE.

According to Mr.. z. e. Rittenhouse,
conservation commissioner of the
EQUITABLE Life Assurance society, ST.
5OO,OOO,Oo0 is low estimate of the
annual economic loss from prevent
able deaths in the United States. The
experience of Colonel Gorgas and his
sanitary corps in the Panama canal
zone is convincing demonstration
that good health is a purchasable
commodity and that sickness can be
insured against and prevented If the
public is willing to pay enough for
safeguards. The cost of accomplishing
the wonderful saving of lives on the
Isthmus is estimated at about. $2.43
per person annually. In contrast with
such figures, which compare favoraply
with familiar per capita expenditures
for fire and police protection and the
conservation of material property, are
the data relating to the cost OF the
actual destruction of mankind. Ac-
cording to President Jordan of Stan
ford university it now costs on the
average Of about $4,000 to kill a man
in modern war, and in the Boer war
this expense ran up to nearly $4,000.
When it is recalled that in time OF
peace we spend nearly million dol
lars a day in our own country on mat
ters concerned with past or future
wars it is comforting to know that
the saving of human life is far cheaper
than it's destruction Nations can af-
ford to do their duty in preparing
against foe like the plague, the dan
ger of which is always present and
more ominous than war, quite as well
as they can raise funds for defense
against unlikely or unavoidable hui
man combats. Civilized nations show
a lack of perspective, to say the least,
says The Journal of the American
Medical Association, when they con-
tinue to destroy life at high cost and
fail to save it at a low cost when a
combination of knowledge with a lit
tie national energy and international
cooperation will lead the way to hui
name economies.
