TIME layman often labors UNI
der the impression that a col
lege game is a college game,
and that one kind is of as much
Importance as the other To him it
may be so, but not to the collie
gian To the manner of thinking
of the undergraduate, there is a
vast difference in the relative i'm
portance of various college sports
Take it the country over, and
baseball must be conceded to be
the national pastime and favorite
sport. Generally speaking, it is
considered the country's most i'm
portant sport. But in, college cir
cles baseball is not so considered.
The game which takes pre- emf
hence in the eyes Of any man in
college or who has been through
college in the past quarter of d
century, Is football.
Just why this should be so may
be little hard to explain. 1t is
natural enough that your collegian
should want something distinctive
ly his own and something at which
he can excel not only other college
players, but the whole world. The
game of football furnishes him
these vantage points as does no
other. The game belongs to that
exact period of youth growth and
development represented by under
graduate life. At any later stage
of life the man would have to be
doing something for a living; he
couldn't be putting in time in such
quantities as football requires un-
less there were something more in
it than mere fame and glory.
ID UT why not professional foot
- ball? And why not play foot
ball on salary as the man plays
professional baseball? Simply be-
cause the game is too strenuous
it couldn't be played every day, as
is baseball, for the man doesn't
live who could stand even two

of six months in the year. And
unless the teams and players could
stand it to play even oftener than
that they wouldn't earn enough to
make the game worth while to
them-that is, the one game a week
wouldn't draw in enough money at
the gate to pay the salaries that
baseball pays as the result of being
able TO play it six days in the week.
Various teams have tried the

professional plan in football, and
whenever they played The trouble
was that they could not keep in
physical shape to play often enough
to make it worth while-and that's
the whole trouble in nutshell. So
the professional player. the ma
tured man, is practically debarred
from the game. And this is why
the college team can beat any other
band of men in the world on the
gridiron, and it is one large reason
why the college man esteems the
game so highly
Perhaps, too, the very fact that it
does come only once a week, and
then for a short season only, is an
added reason for the prestige of the
game-what we see often loses
value, and familiarity may breed
contempt here as well as elsewhere.
TRACK sports, tennis, lacrosse,
soccer, basket ball, swimming
and even baseball are not in it
when it comes to a comparison with
football as contests of physical
strength or even of pure science.
Your collegian regards football as
a struggle between giants (and isn't
ito, while the others are contests
between comparative Lilliputians.
The minor games demand skill, to
be sure, stiffness and quick think
ing-football requires these, even in
greater quantity, and with much
sheer physical strength added. Why
is it that exhibitions and even
tales of the exhibition of mere
brute strength have always inter
ested man so?
Richard the Lion Hearted could
Whack a thick bar of steel in two
pieces by one stroke of his heavy
battle sword, while Haroun Al
Raschid could sever with one stroke
a piece of gossamer so light that
it hoated on the air, so keen was
his blade and so dexterous his
stroke. Here we are in doubt
which achievement to admire most,
but there would be no doubt if
along came one who could achieve
both these exploits.

HYPNOTISM USED TO PUT
GOLFER BACK I'm FORM"

LONDON, Feb. 1.--Golfers of their
game may be restored to their best
form by hypnotic treatment
A plus-four golfer whose game had all
gone to Sticks who had lost his swing
fooled his approaches and was short
with his puts, placed himself under
treatment at Guys hospital in the hyp-
motto department. BY suggestion the
hypnotic specialist instilled into his mind
that he was as good a player as ever,
and when he next went to the links his
former excellence reappeared
DR. Edwin Ash, leading mental spe-
cialist, referring to the case, says:
Golf requires delicate CO. ordination OF
the mind and muscle, which becomes
subconscious in case the player is one of
any skin. He plays like an automaton
and is at his best when not troubling
about his game"

Called Him A Major.

Emperor William OF Germany prided
himself upon the fact that his subjects
considered his word as binding as the
claws OF the Medes and Persians." An
amusing incident in Mrs. Hugh Fraser's
"reminiscences Of Diplomatists Wife"
shows that the peoples confidence was
not misplaced.
One day the Emperor's adjutant, Count
Seckendorff, presented an officer TO him
upon the latter's promotion to major.
Congratulations, major" said the en-
peror. The officer glanced at him an
instant with an expression of astonish-
ment and delight, then bowed and with
drew.
Presently, 10 his dismay, Court Secken-
dorff discovered that the officer thus pro-
NOTED was one OF two brothers and that
il was the other one, the elder, who had
just reached his majority. The younger
brother, who had just been presented 10
the emperor, was only captain.
When he explained the mistake TO The
Emperor, William | replied: "Well,
there's nothing TO be done. Major
said and major he must remain"
Seckendorff came to him a few days
later with the request that he might be
allowed TO present The real major, but the
Emperor shook his head. "No, no, my
dear fellow" he answered, with smile;
you don't catch me making the same
mistake twice." II tooksome persuasion

NOTED officer.

A Bona Eide Barbara Frietchie.

An old letter written by young officer
in Lees army as if marched into Pennsyl-
vania in 1868 tells a pretty story-as pretty
indeed as the Barbara Frietchie incident.
and in this case true. The extract is taken
verbatim from the letter.
"Greencastle, Pa, June "a, 1868
Yesterday my men were marching
VIGOROUSLY through the little town OF
Greencastle, the bands all playing The
Bonny Blue Flag Maryland, and Her
Bright Smile Haunts Me Stll,' and the
soldiers all happy and hopeful. ioyously
keeping time TO the music, many followed
il with their voices and making up for
the want of welcome they were not re-
ceiving in the enemy's country by cheer
ing themselves and giving themselves a
welcome.
"As the band, playing Dixie was
passing vine-covered home ayoung girl
rushed out on the porch and waved a
United States flag. Then, either fearing
that il might be taken away from her or
finding il too large and unwieldy, she
fastened il around her as an apron and,
taking hold of it on each side and waving
it in defiance, called out with all the
strength of her girlish voice and all the
courage of her brave young heart: 'Trai-
tors, traitors, traitors, come and take this
flag, the man OF you who darep
Knowing that many of my men were
from section of the country which had
been within the eneny's lines, and fear
ing lest some might forget their manhood
took off my hat and bowed 10 her, and
her flag, and then turned, facing my men,
who felt and saw my unSpoken order.
And don't you know that they were all
Virginians and didn't forget il, and that
almost every man lifted his cap and cheer
ed the little maiden who, though she kept
on waving her flag, ceased calling US
traitors, till, letting if drop in front of her
she cried out: %, wish-l wish had a
Rebel flag; I'D wave that tool'
I'VE left the little girl standing there
with the flag gathered in her arms as if
TOO scared TO be waved now that even
the enemy had done il reverence"

Jewel S,313 Years Old.

A jewel with a wonderful history was
the feature of the royal society's con-
versazione at Burlington House, London,
recently. II is Of camelian, lapis lazuli.
and turquoise, and was made by order Of
the Pharaoh of Upper Egypt, 3.400
years before the birth OF Christ.
The Pharaoh gave il to one OF his court
favorites, and when the latter died il was
buried with him in his magnificent tomb
at Gerzeh, some forty miles away from
modern Cairo. A body-snatcher Of an
cient Egypt broke open the tomb Of the
dead favorite of Pharaoh.
For once, poetic justice-an institution
which flourished even in Egypt-came
into operation. The heavy slabs that
formed the roof Of the tomb fell on the
thief and crushed him Fat. Then the
wind came, and with il the sand; and
year by year the ruined tomb was buried
deeper, so that il lay for centuries hidden
in the desert.
Last March Prof. Flinders Petne and
his excavating party found il. The fallen
roof and the crushed body Of the thief
told their own tale, and the excavators
were encouraged 10 look for what they
knew the thief had not been able TO take
away with him. And so at last they
found the beautiful jewel, at which a
court artificer had wrought, perhaps for
years. fifty centuries ago. ltwas inspect
ed with deep curiosity.

m'm a tough guy. Come out and see

strange man, claiming TO be prize fighter,
entered the office of the Exponent, a
Clarksburg morning paper, at a. m, and

of George Shawmut, reporter. The
stranger pounced on c. H. Boylan, a

valuable he had on his person, and then

the hold-up talk was all a joke, but he
