BY CHARLES n. LURE

We all know the man who could do
good work-if he would
He abounds in every line OF human
endeavor He is not exactly careless
or lacking In ambition, for often he
works by fits and starts.
He doesn't last
He will not stick at anything long
enough to accomplish good results or
to do all that he could. He Is often
procrastinator, putting OF today's
task until tomorrow. He fails to realize
that the ease of doing thing decreases
by geometrical progression as it Is put
Off-that is, tomorrow it Is twice as
hard as it is today. the next day it
will be four times as difficult. the fol-
lowing day eight times. and so on un-
til it becomes impossible.
Some one asked Anthony Trullope.
the novelist whose works were very
popular few decades ago and are
still read by many. for his recipe for
getting through SO much work.
THE best recipe ] know for novel
writing" said Mr.. Trollope. ''is a patch
Of cobbler's wax On the seat Of my
chair. And ! tale great pains to sit
upon it.
He possessed the secret Of stick-to-it-
iveness
DR.. johnson said, "A man may write
ut any time II he will set himself dog
gedly to It," Same idea as Trollope's,
you see. but not expressed so fgura-
lively.
And man may not only write. but
do anything else that is within the
compass of his powers if he will set
himself doggedly to 1t.
1t is perseverance that counts, not
genius Some OF the wisest of men
have expressed disbelief in tue inspira-

Of genius For example. Edison said

1t will be Massachusetts, against the
Metropolitan district on Friday, with
excellent prospects for a Massachusetts
victory. The Metropolitan team does
not look as formidable. on paper, as 1t
has some time in the past, at least,
from the tentative list Of names SUBJ

NEW YORK, Sept. 24:-Almost every
angle. contingency and possibility Of
the football rules came in for discus
sion at a melting of intercollegiate OFF,
cials. referees, players and coaches in
the Hotel Manhattan last night. The
gathering was called by the rules COM
mittee and central board for the pur-
pose of making certain points clear
and for discovering any loopholes that
might exist in the code. More than 200
men were present, and they kept firing
away queries at the solons. who sat
an raised dias, and gave their inter-
pretations and explained their intent
when they framed the various points
that arose.
The most important topic that came
Up during the night was one that con-
cerned rule IL, section 3, regarding in
reference with an opportunity for
making a fair catch: The rule states
that when a player has such an oppor-
tunity opponents who are on side shall
not in any way interfere with him or
with the ball.
No provision is made for interference
from men VINO are onside. According
to the rule, when a player kicks those
on his team who are behind him. and
therefore onside, are not prevented
from throwing an opponent who sig
nals for fair catch.
Rule Interpreted.
At the meeting the committee ruled
that the men standing back of the kick
er who are onside may not interfere
with the opponent trying for catch
as provided for in Rule II, section 8,
but that they may try to catch the ball
as On the forward pass.
1t was pointed out that Rule 3, sec
ton 3, would not prevent Il player from
being taken out in the fourth period
and then put back into the game. The
committee admitted there was no pro-
vision against that action, but that It
was not their intent when the rule was
framed and they hoped that teams
would not make it a practice.
A case in point was raised that
referee suddenly fOun that an ineli-
gibIe player had returned to the game
and that meanwhile his team had scored
d touchdown. The committee decided
that II would be discretionary with the
referee to take any action he saw fit.
Walter Camp thought the touchdown
should be nullified and the offending
side penalized half the distance. 1t was
should be exacted even If there were no
score.
Judge Evans, of Little Falls, cited a
case of a player kicking from behind
his own goal line and being roughed
with the result that the offenders scored
a touchdown. That score was ruled 10
touchdown, but q touchback.
On Striking Ball.
Mr.. Camp brought up the point of two
men going dwon under a forward pass
and one striking the ball. On bounding
up in the air the ball is touched by an
other man of the same side and the
play is then an incomplete forward
pass Under the rules the ball goes to
the other team, which Mr.. Camp thought
a rather severe penalty. 1t was decided
that there was no redress for the in
Jured team, and the rule would have to
be interpreted as IL stands.
Among those present were w. N.
Morice, Pennsylvania; Al Sharpe, Cor
nell: w. S. Langford. Trinity; DR..
