Waddell was slightly improved. 1t was
at first feared he could not recover. He

EARLHAM'S ELEVEN

By Coach.

READY FOR FRANKLIN

A short but stiff signal practice was
kiven the Earlham College squad by
Coach Reagan yesterday afternoon on
Reid Field. The snow was too deep
for any kind of scrimmage and SO the
Coach run the eleven through some
new plays to be used against the next
two teams of the schedule.
Teams About Even.
EarIham's home games ended last
Saturday when Wabash played at
will trot down to Franklin to stack
arms against one of the best small
college elevens. Both Franklin and
Earlham have been defeated by the
Giants so as a matter of dope the two
squads are about at standstill with
an advantage to Erlham.
The Wabash squad defeated Frank
lin by score of 26 to 0 while Earl
ham scored 6 points on the Little
Giants in Saturdays contest. The
points however, were not made by
crossing a goal line but by the mas
terful kicking of Capt. Bogue.
Williams Out of Game.
The Yellow and White squad came
out of the Wabash game with only
one player on the injured list. Ross
Williams, fullback, was hindered from
the first practice of the season by a
badly sprained ankle, from wh%n he
has never fully recovered. 1t is posi-
BILE that he will not enter any game
until the DePauw contest at Greencas,
tie, November 81.
The Quaker squad is falling short
every day and Coach Reagan finds ii
difficult to get enough scrubs" to
give the varsity a fair days work
Earlham's only chance to spill the
dope bucket of seconardy honors
comes in the DePauw game. Should
the Quaker squad surprise the race
dopsters by defeating the Methodists
1t would complicate things to a dis
tressing degree.

Rv FRANK G. MENkE

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-NOthing but
a badly chewed up Yale bulldog now
stands between the onrushing crimson
host Of Harvard and its goal, the 1918
championship of the east. You may
take it from the dopesters today that
one we'll directed kick at the Bull
Dogs ribs will effectually remove the
obstacle.
Perhaps it will, and perhaps it won't
When one figures with the dope one
must be nightly careful when Yale is
considered in the fighting.
Yale has a way of splitting the beans
that surprises even itself at times.
The Bull Dog team this year has
shown up woefully weak, and the Har-
ward team stacks up as one of the
greatest that ever carried the Grim
son colors into battle. Judged on the
respective showings of the teams Har-
ward ought to win in easy fashion
when the teams meet in Cambridge
on the twenty second. But from this
distance 1t does not seem wise to wa
ger on Harvard the money one has
laid away for the winters coal.
A good line on what Yale will do
against Harvard may be grabbed next
Saturday when it meets the Princeton
Tigers.
The .Detting just now favors the Tt
gers because of their great showing
Saturday against Harvard but it
wouldn't be surprising if Yale held
the Tigers to a tie, or even beat them.
The Yale spirit seemed to have awak-
ened Saturday in it's battle with Brown
and the Bull Dog crowd at last seems
to have struck its stride.
At all the big colleges yesterday the
players were voted vacations for their
strenuous efforts of Saturday. At Har-
ward and Princeton, however, the
players did not rest. They desisted
from practice but they spent the prac-
tice time trying to pry the mul out
of their skins, which imbedded itself
there in Saturdays game and which
so far has detied all ordinary prying
efforts.

is SICKNESS A SIN?
If So, Is It a Sin of Omission or
Commission, or Both?

We have a deep down feeling that
nature knows her business and
never makes a mistake. Could we but
know natures laws and did we obey
these laws, we are pretty sure that
we would escape sickness.
Then it follows that sickness is a
sin of Commission. That we have
committed some breach of natures
laws when the head aches-when the
breath Is bad-when the stomach re-
bells. But we compound the offense
by the besetting sin Of Omission
We omit that preventive ministra-
ton that would correct the sin of Com
mission-that would relive the head
ache by loosening the damned up bile
in the Liver.
In the coated tongue, headache or
dizziness or bad breath we had ample
warning that the Liver was not per
forming properly. But committed the
greater sin by emitting the simple pre-
ventive measure that would rectify
the sin of commission.
Possessed with fear Of losing time

cOmpanied it's work and the nausea
that followed was wores than the dis
ease.
Now comes PoDoLaX-a new Podo-

has been taken out and the sickening

out loss of time-and at a trifling cost.
But it is expected that you watch
carefully for those warnings-the
headache-the bad berath-the bloat-

You, yourself, must practice Pre-
ventive Medicine-your Physician is

job is prevention-so, on the very first
