state of New York, and the transmits

in a great, old-fashioned house in Ri'-
erdale avenue in this city. She is
now totally blind and for two years
she has been confined to her bed by
illness. Despite her misfortune the
former actress keeps intimately IN
touch with the affairs of the world.
Interested in all subjects, she has her
mother who is ninety years old, read
magazine and newspaper articles to
her during the day and when during
the night she cannot sleep, her hus'
band, Dr. F. C. Harriott, reads to her.
When not listening to the reading OF
her husband and mother, Miss Nor
ris spends much of her time debating
snort stories for the magazines.

the Normal College Monday night to
hear the address by Dr. A. b. Win

after his morning address to remain
here for the delivery of another ad'

Doctor Winship is editor of the Jour
nal of Education, published in Boston,
and besides devotes much time to the
platform, lecturing on educational
themes and methods.
The subject of Doctor Winship's adj
dress last night was Get In the Game
and he announced in the beginning
that in the general discussion OF the
subject he would stick close to his
text, though for his Illustrations he
would travel far afield.

Winship. "to think life is battle.
Don't take life too seriously. Make a
game of It. If you make life a game
you will learn how to live and that Is
the most important thing in the world
to do. If you can be a good loser play
for all you are worth. No man can be
a good loser in a fight, because II he
gets knocked out it hurts, and it Is
hard to be cheerful when you are hurt
Don't fight-play. If you play game
you know one must lose and if you
are the loser and you are game, you

There are two kinds OF games in

The speaker illustrated his meaning
by telling Of a great teacher in New
York who taught the boys Of the slums
to laugh when the result Of the game
went to the other boy.
'Tn the games of skill" continued
Doctor Winship, two things are neces

but he brushed it away hurriedly.
