YALE FACES FIGHT :
WITH HARVARD TEAM
intercollegiate Title Will Be
Decided by Important
Series

Boston, June 16.-The long standing
rivalry between Harvard and Yale will
be in evidence again on the baseball dia-
mond this week as the eliminating fea-
ture of the season among the eastern
colleges.
Yale after playing through prelimi-
nary season of phenomenal success brings
to the annual series with Harvard an
almost clear title to the eastern intercol-
legate championship. Even victory by
the Crimson can shake only little faith
Of Yale's claim to eastern honors
Such a victory. however. would put the
Harvard team in for consideration in
second ranking although the defeat of
Pennsylvania Saturday weakened the
Crimson bid for place.
The Yale's nine record for the season
which will close with this series is a
remarkable one. including a new inter-
collegiate achievement on winning Is con-
secutive games.
OF 26 games played with college mines
Yale lost only two, one an early season
defeat by Pennsylvania later retrieved,
and one to Williams few weeks ago.
Harvard has no such imposing record,
having lost six games out of 20. The Har-
ward squad left for New Haven today.

Wednesday morning. October 20,
1913, about o'clock, the little life of
James Edwin, the infant son of Mr.
and Mrs G E Hill, winged its way
heayenward. He was only 2 months
and ten days old.
How desolate must seem the home
this little jewel brighteLed for so
short a while. His mission on earth
was ended so soon, but while it is
lonely without him, 1t is sweet to
know he is safe in the arms of Je-
sus, safe on His gentle breast"
He was laid away in the family
burying ground Thursday morning
at II o'clock.
We gave it to God, Who gave 1t to US,
This baby so weak and small;
And while we mourn, we know it went
At the Heavenly Fathers call.
Although we lovedit, we know it was
for the best;
Well trust it to Him in heaven,
And praise Him for lending it to US
The short time it was given.
The home is lonely, but we smile through
our tears;
For we see through faith the dear little
one =
Safe and secure in His arms.

II We Understood.

If we knew the cares and trials
Knew the efforts all in vain
And the bitter disappointment
Understood the loss and gain
Would the grim eternal roughness
SEEM wonder-just the same!
Should we help where We now hinder!
Should we pity where we blame?
All! we judge each other harshly,
Knowing not ]ife's hidden force;
Knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbid at its source;
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good;
And we'd love each other better,
If we only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motives
That surround each others lives;
See the naked heart and spirit
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find it better,
Purer than we judge we should,
We should love each other better,
If we only understood.
