We thank Thee God. for harvests rich,-
The prncely wealth of hill and plain,
For ev'ry living thing that grows
Climbing from earth to heaven again.
We thank Thee, God for blue of skies,
The mountains crowned with fragrant pine,
The sunlit waves and fields of brown,
The fruit of orchard and of vine.
We thank Thee for the wind and rain
The snow that wraps the dreaming earth
The sun that warns and lights us all
We thank The-Thou didst give them birth.
We thank Thee, God, for life and health,
For friends that charm each magic day,
For simple joys and homely cares,
For Heart of Age-for Heart of May
We thank Thee, God, for pain and tears,
For lardships that we learn to bear,
For death that takes our loved ones home
And gives them to the dear Christ's care!
We thank Thee, God. for home and love, ~,
The love that makes us strong to do
The home that shelters from lifes blasts,
The faith that leads us up to You.

We thank Thee God that Thou art God,
The Father-nother whom we call,
Enfold us in Thy loving care,
Thy breast shelter for us all.

We thank Thee, God, for all the years;
For all the cons that shall be,
When Thy great Harvest Day shall come
Call all Thy children home to Thee!

Baseballs monopoly of the sport
lovers attention will soon be broken.
Football elevens will begin to take
the place of baseball mines. Prelim-
mary football practice has begun on
the eastern college gridirons, and two
weeks later football scores will ap-
pear. Practice begins earlier in the
East than In the West.
The coming season should present
some OF the most brilliant and varied
plays seen in several years, because
Of the excellence Of the play. In the

November At the first Of last year
the coaches all over the country were
Handicapped by the new rules allow
ing -four downs" for the ten yards
instead Of the usual three.
This ruling caused two distinct
lines Of play to be developed by the
coaches an open game, by means of
the forward pass, and return to the
old line smashing tactics of years
gone by. The result was that in the
first part OF the 1912 season much
line smashing was seen, but after the
first month the forward pass was
used, the coaches over the country
realizing that the open play was too
fast for the old style of line smashing.

During the last two weeks, while

ball, the Punahou Prep. has not for

ing on an exciting interclass soccer
series. Punahou will enter team in
the interscholastic league. and in or

and the keep up the interest in athlet-
les, this series OF games was sched-
uled. pr a..
The prep. school boys now make
more of soccer than of any other
sport, and much interest is shown in
this game from the second grade up.
Soccer is played at recess time, the
balls being furnished by the athletic
association, and the regular games
after school hours So far, the eighth
grade has shown itself to be superior
to any of the others, so the team will
meet picked eleven of the whole
school Friday
All the previous games have been
very close and exciting, although
some have been between boys of three
and four years difference in age, The
first game of the series was played
on Friday, Sept. 10, between the COM
bined sixth grades against the COM
bined ssevenths, the latter winning by
a score of 80 The next week the
