Its winter now-remove the shredded hay
And other breakfast foods of lighter weight;
Such airy stuff as wholly out of date;
Bring on the steaming mush to start the day.
Then, when have THAT nicely slowed away,
With steak and fried potatoes fill my plate
Or ham and eggs-oh, say, it's SIMPLY GREAT
To see such yittles smoking on the tray!
And then-the buckwheat cakes! Oh I can eat
Such fare as THAT long it will come;
Tinglng with joy from palate down to feet
l pour the strip out and then-yum yum!
On grub like that I'd fight foreign fleet
And put health food army on the bum!

FAVOR DARTMOUTH TO
 WIN INTERCOL LEGIATE

Cam bridge, Mass. May 24-Wfth the track soggy and slippery from rain of the past two days, the athletes com peting at the 27th annual champion ship meeting Of the New England Col- legiate Athletic Association appeared for the final events to be held in the Harvard Stadium, this afternoon. As to the outcome of the meet there was no doubt apparent anywhere today. Dartmouth qualified 21 athletes in the trials, yesterday, more than twice az many as the green's closest rival in the preliminary Massachusetts Institute Of Technology, which had carried over nine men. Whether Tech l1oLogy would land second place was the question of most general interest. Colby Holy Cross. Bates, Brown, Will Hams and Maine were thought to have a chance.
 There were nearly half a dozen ath- Ietes competing, today, who were re- garded as having strong prospects of setting new record marks.
 Most prominent, perhaps. was Cap tain Taber of Brown, who ran in the last Olympiad and who was expected to make new marks for the half mile and the mile run.
 H. P Bailey, of Maines who flung the hammer to 8 new record distance, yesterday, had the opportunity Of bet tering his performance of 153 feet, 8 inches, in the final events, today

JOB GOES TO
 MANITOBA ON
 WILD FOWL TRIP

New Haven, May 24-The departure of State Ornithologist Herbert K Job, of West Haven, to join a government expedition to Manitoba in the interest of wild fowl propagation, calls atten- ton to the work now going on in this State to domesticate a numb CT of spe- ctes of game birds. MT. Job last summer went to the wilds of Manitoba and under a license given him by the Canadian government, collected eggs of various species of ducks, brant, swan and geese which migrate to those regions in the breeding season matched them in the Homemade fncuba- tor and brought back the young birds. A number of wealthy men financed the trip and since then many kinds of wild fowl have been kept at the Con- necticut College at. Storxs, at Nor folk, on a, game preserve there and at several preserves in Westchester coun- ty. N Y.
 It is stated that an experiment made the past year in a preserve in West chester county netted 5000 profit in the raising of the wood duck and sup plying it to the New York markets.
 The present expedition is better equipped than any previous one and works under a. permit from the Canad- ian government.

 $4,OOO Per Year |

New Haven, May 24-The Board of Education, at its meeting last even ing appointed Frank L.. Glynn, now head of the Bridgeport Trade School, principal Of the Trade School to be established in this city next September at salary of $4,OO0 per year, the ap- pointment to take effect June l, when MT. Glynn will sever his connection with the Bridgeport Trade School to come to this city to prepare for the opening of the new school. The board considers MT. \G1ynn one of the best qualified men in the country for the position which he assumes. He was for a number of years the head and organizer Of the first vocational school in the East, at Albany, N r., and came to the Bridgeport school from there, when the State opened the school. He is a graduate of the Os- wego normal school, and has taken special courses at Cornell University, and in preparation for his trade school work has had extensive experience in shop and factory work He spent five months in Europe during the past year, inspecting the Trade Schools, and imbibing the latest foreign ideas Tn the operation of Trade Schools, the results of which he will bring to bear in the most improved methods nere. MT GIynn is about B years of age.
 The appointment of MT. Gaynn has been under consideration of the boar0 for some time past, in fact rom rne first he was considered the most Qual- flied man, but there was some hitch in securing him from the State board At one time the plan was considered of Mr. Glynn spending part of his time here, the State board lending nlm to the city, but this was deemed in- advisable, and in further negotiations the State board released him, with the understanding that he be lent to the State, whenever necessary, the saIary paid him to go to the Board Of E1uu- cation.
 MT. Glynn's period of appointment was not defined by the board.
 The new Trade School will unoorzoC- edly be opened in the present Board man school, as MT. 4lynn has said that the equipment there is the finest in the country. The Trade School courses can be carried on there In contunction with the manual tra1n1ng courses, and there is a possibility enaF some of the teachers in that course
 may be hired for the Trade School MT. caynn will come to this city Mon dav to confer ou that matter The city will be saved a large amount m the cost of 8 new shop by the use or kthe Boardman school, and the appro- nriatfon of $25eo0 made by the city can be expended for salaries and equipment.

SPORTOGRAPHY

This is getaway day for the gee gees on the Canadian Racing Associa- tion's circuit, and the 1913 season will be inaugurated with a holiday pro- gram at the Ontario Jockey Clubs track in Toronto. Despite the revival of racing in New York, scheduled for next week, a classy bunch of thor oughbreds will face the barrier at Woodbine. Toronto has long held the reputation of being the best racing city of it's size in the world, and the present meet, which will continue through all of next week, promises to be highly successful.
 The sport of kings, as conducted in Canada, leaves little to be desired, and has been generally free from the evils that have resulted in it's abolition in nost of the States. A bill to establish racing commission for the regu1a- ton of the sport in Ontario and which would affect all of the Canadian Asso- ciation's tracks except Montreal, was proposed by a member of the Pro- \vincia1 legislature. but was wtthdrawn

JIM FLYNN IS WINNER IN
 HARD BOUT wrTH CoFFEY

Jim Flynn, the Pueblo Fireman, af- ter an inglorious start when knock out seemed inevitable, outfouglt Jim Coney, the Dublin Giant, in the star ten-round bout at Madison Square, New York, last night. It was a battle that teened with exciting moments, and there was hardly a second when one or the other was not showing more action than is usually brought forth in bout between Iightweights
 In the early rounds it appeared as if Flynn did not have a. remote chance of standing up ten rounds under the energetic assault of his youthful op- ponent. But just at the stage when the crowd was bending to see the grizzled veteran go to the floor, Flynn would cut loose with an attack that simply swept the youngster off his feet.
 The ringside weights were 1e3 B pounds for Coffey and 191 pounds for Flynn. This were several pounds more than the Fighting Fireman has carried into the ring in his previous engagements, and there was a groan through the crowd at the annouflce- ment of the unexpected weight. Cof- fey, taller and many years younger seemed to be in perfect physical trim, as contrasted with the extra avoir- dupois which buIged over F1ynn's belt line. The latter looked the veteran that he is, and in the first few rounds gave every indication that his vitality would have to give way to the super for strength of Cofrey.
 Up to the fourth round Flynn fur nished occasional bursts of speed in answer to a series of uppercuts from zCoffeys but he ran second to the Dub lin boy in those early rounds. After Coffey tired from driving his two hands to the Fireman's face, Flynn would cut loose with his terrific swings from either side, carryin, much more force than Coffey's blows but landing less frequently. Coffey was entitled to the honors in those three chapters.
