MISTAKEN IN TAX COLLECTION.
fBoone News-Republican.l

The .Marshalltown Times Republican
points out the mistake of licensing au-
tomobiles all over the state from Des
Moines. The paper makes the state
ment that while more than one hum
dred thousand autos have been IL
censed in Iowa this year still there are
a great number driving machines who
have not paid their auto tax and who
will not during ythe year 1914. And
the same Is true every year. This is
news TO many. but undoubtedly true.
There are many methods for the auto
tax dodgers, chief among which is the
use of the dealers number. There are
also undoubtedly tags affixed to ma
chimes which are not official and which
escape the attention OF officers OF the
law, who are not particularly interest
ed in enforcing the rules and regula-
tons enacted at the capitol
The Marshalltown paper suggests
that the remedy for this is to tax
autos at home, that Is. let the county
officials collect the tax from all autos
in their county. This seems very wise
to us. 1t Is a home rule measure that
auto owners should boost. What is
the sense Of taxing autos at Des
Moines. sending money there and hav-
ing 1T sent back, or a portion of 1t at
least, to fix our roads? Why not col
lect the tax at home. use it on our
roads and send whatever percentage
the state needs down to Des Moines
In that way very few auto drivers
would escape paying license and
much more money would be collected
uniform number tag could be sup
piled by the state, in fact, the same
system now in use could continue. ex-
cept that 1t be administered by the
local officials. There is a wealth OF
wisdom in the suggestion that auto
taxes ought TO be collected at home

TALKING TO GOD


No wonder some mothers keep a
book Of the "sayings' OF their chill
dren. The wonder is that more moth
ers do not do so for children do say
some beautiful things and ask wonder
full questions.
One day not long ago. q little New
ton girl. of but a few years Of age,
stood on the big porch at her parents
home. A lady passing the house said,
as she noticed the bright upturned face
of the child, What are you doing out
here this sunshiny morning." and i'm
mediately the answer came, I'm talk
ing to God"
1t was such an unexpected answer
that the woman stopped and going UP
to the side of the porch looked at the
child more closely and the face. a truly
beautiful one, was like that of morn
ing-glory blossom just opened by the
morning light.
Before the woman had time to speak
again th9 musical voice OF the child
said, DO you want to know what
was saving to Him.
On the lady telling her she did. the
answer came, Il was just saying to
hin. Z love you."

child's mind Of what God Is! He was
just like her own dear parents, who
loved to have her tell them that she
loved them. and When she saw. this
lovely summer morning, all the things
around her-the grass. the flowers, the
birds. the sunshine-her heart in all
its natural childlikeness and trust
wanted Him. the one she had been
taught was the giver. to know that shs
loved Him for It all.

MAULBETSCH OF MICHIGAN HITS. THE
LINE LIKE A GATHERING RAM

Ann Arbor, Mich, Nov. 3d.
Maulbetsch. the Michigan halfback,
hits a line harder than any man who
has played on an eastern gridiron for
ten years. 1t didn't seem possible, in
the minds of the eastern football en-
thusiasts. for a mai to smash into a
line Of human bodies with the force
that Maulbetsch does and come out
OF the game without a broken neck.
The way that Maulbetsch rammed
the husky Harvard line, IL that Har-
vard-Michigan game, will be talked
ABOUT In eastern football circles for
many years to come.
The east had been prepared to see
in Maulhetsch a good line smasher,
but didn't expect to see a miraculous
plunging h%alfback. such as Maui
betsch proved himself to be.
In that game against Harvard,
Michigan gained almost twice as
much ground as did Harvard, and
M~aulhetsch did four-ffths Of the
ground gaining for the western eleven.
Never since the days Of Heston has
anyone witnessed bucking of the kind
that M~aulbetsch showed during the
first period of that game and again In
the third period. His gains weren't

old FOOTBALL
INTO DISCARD
Open Game is Here to stay
Says Fullerton-Favor-
ed by Spectators.
(By Hugh S. Fullerton.)

(By Hugh >. fuileTtOu.)
There were a dozen old football men
gathered with me in a box at the game
between Minnesota and Chicago. Two
men had won "Y's" there were two
Dartmouth men. one Princeton veter-
an, a couple Of ex-l!lini and one Of
Michigan. Not one had played foot
ball in the last even years, II most
of us date back to the time when we
formed flying wedges and trampled
upon each others countenances.
From the first kickoff l heard moth
ing but quarrelling and complaining
and criticism of football as it is now
played. Only two in the gang defend
ed the new style of football. The
others took the ground that it has
been tanned down; ruined. They did
not get warmed up at all until Min
nesota started it's straight line pluns-
ing in the final quarter n tore up
Chicago's crippled defense.
All" said one, gloatingly. That
is more like the old times"
1t is only under such conditions
that we realize how much the game
has changed. Personally I think it is
a much better game han it ever was.
and that it is only in its infancy. That
Is there still remain some bad defects
in the game. and these seemingly not
hard to remedy.
II certainly is n much better game
for the spectators and the public has
discovered this without being told.
Also, it is a better game from the
standpoint of generalship. There is
much more chance for brilliant
strategy and less of a premium on
brute strength and weight.
I am beginning to think that the
rule makers erred in barring the
rnachoe fro,,, t1,o Goll l,,r;-- vIo,
or course, we all understand why
this agreement was reached. 1t was
because some coaches went too far.
and to correct this evil. the rule maxi
ers went too far themselves.
1T has been proved repeatedly this
fall that the teams need a cool d.
recting head on the sidelines to pre-
vent panics n one with the authori-
fy to remove players from games
when they insist upon playing after
being injured.
me veterans may complain all they
please and criticise the new game;
but their criticisms will lot stop the
evolution Of college football. The
evolution is natural. and I know to a
certainty tina there is going to be even
further development Of the game.
This Information does not come from
h rule makers or from the coaches.
IT comes from observation.
A few days ago ! got out with A.
swarm OF youngsters playing football,
or practicing. To my establishment
they were throwing n football rapidly
and accurately 20. 80. sometimes even
SO feet, and throwing and catching
while running. asked them about It.
They admitted they like that kind
or game better, and thai there Is more
action and more skill in it. BY the
time these boys make high school
teams they will be adopts at throwing
and catching the ball-and it simply
means that the passing game has
come to stay.

puny one and two-yard affairs. They
ranged from five to twelve yards al
most every time he carried the ball.
The Human Bullet" as Maui
betsch is called, hits a line lower than
most back field men now in the game.
Probably that's the reason that he
makes such consistent and tremend-
IL gains when he hurls himself at a
line. When the ball is snapped to
him he almost doubles himself up,
and. with his head aimed at the
knees of the opposing line, he dives
head first.
Those who have seer Maulbetsch in
action marvel at the great momentum
he can get up in two or three steps.
Usually when center snaps back the
ball, Maulbetsch is a few feet behind
the quarterback. At the moment the
ball Is snapped he plunges forward.
TWO steps and the ball is In his, arms
and then he dives. Several times dur
ing the Harvard game his dives had
SO much power that he dove right
through a double line of crimson
players and went sprawling on the
ground twelve to twenty feet clear of
double line.

RESTRICTING EDUCATION.
(Pittshurrh 10is,,atch

DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, presi-
dent Of Columbia university, is report
ed as urging the restriction Of univer-
sity education to the physically fit.
His idea that since the university is
spending large sums out OF it's endow-
ment income in addition to it's tuition
fees. it owes it to itself and the pubic
to see that these expenditures are
made only where there is hope of APP
propriate return to the community in
personal and social service. Hence his
thought that physical as we'll as men,
tai capacity be required of all candi-
dates for admission. There is no more
reason for closing the universities to
would he for closing the public schools
to them, which, of course, is unthink-
able.
