THINGS ORIGINATED

The father of the piano was the harpsi-
chord, and its grandfather the spinet. The
piano was first used in a public concert
on May 16. 1867, in the Covent Garden
Theater, London.
The first English book on stenography,
SO far as known, was written by DR.. Tim

Seneca, Cicero and several others.
The buttons on the backs and sleeves
of mems coats are reminders of the time
when the coat skirts and sleeves were
buttoned back when walking or driving.
The flaps have disappeared, the buttons
have remained.
Pliny describes a boat he had seen
which was propelled by wheels driven by
a pot Of hot water and some machinery
which he did not understand and could
not explain. 1t was probably the first
attempt at a steamboat

RESTRAINED USE OF

Now, it is all very well to laugh at
gray and black and to say that this in

A NOVELTY IN NECKWEAR.

. little string bow in corded silk
fastens the collar OF the newest thing
in neckwear-an affair in stiffly
starched white linen. 1t is ultra-smart
looking and any girl can make it.
The collar, high and shaped like the
one worn by very smart young men,
has wing points of the sharpest sort,
which turn widely back and slightly
overlap the top of a narrow shirt
bosom designed to fill in the space be-
tween the fronts of a Jacket. This
shirt bosom fastens with tiny studs
and at the edges is finished with an
openwork hem matching the edges of
the collar. Unless stiffly starched and
unrumpled this accessory is not smart
looking. but as the material for half
dozen of them may be bought for a
dollar. a fresh one can always be kept

SIXTY CANDIDATES
FOR N. D. TRACK TEAM

Winter athletics are now in vogue
at Notre Dame and the track and
basket ball teams are getting into
trim. Sixty men answered the first
track roll call and of the lot only
eight of the men were members of
last years squad. Coach Rockne Will
have to pick the major part of the
team from the green material.
Although drizzling rain fell all
afternoon the long distance men were
given their usual cross country drill.
The coach stated that he had no men
for the long distance runs and would
have to build up some of the new ma
terial. For short distance runs he has
a good bunch of material, but all need
trimming up for many of the men
never wore a track suit until last
evening. One thing that will help is
the fact that many of the men have
played on the football teams at the
school during the past season and are
in fairly good form.
Coach ROckne was greatly per-
picked last evening for a time when
he discovered that he only had equip
ment enough for 40 men, so some of
the men had to take their work out
in their citizen toys. The wedding
out process will start in a few days
and this situation will be relieved.
The track men are using the second
floor Of the big gym and also the big
track, which does not interfere with
the regular basket ball practice. If
the snow does not stop outdoor work
many of the long distance men will
not require the use of the gym and
the basket ball men will have plenty
of time to get into shape.
Two basket ball squads were put to
work for the first time last night and
a good squad can easily be picked
from the large amount of material.
Two floors have been arranged so
that four squads can practice at the
same time With the first game only
a few days off the team will put in
every moment of allotted time in get
