RIGHT FAST TEAM IS
PROSPECTS OF CADETS
At c. NJ. A. THIS FALL
LIKELY THAT ELEVEN WILL AV~
ERAGE ABOUT 145 POUNDS
STRIPPED.
COACH ANDERSON is PLEASED
But Light Work Has Been Done So
Far-TackIing the Dummy, Learn
ing to Block Runner, and Other
Fundamentals Are Stressed.

1t was pretty likely looking squad
hat Coach Anderson was putting
through the preliminaries and funda-
mentals of football at beautiful Sol
diers' Field Tuesday afternoon.
There were about thirty in the bunch,
and from them Coach Anderson ought
to get an eleven that will hold it's
own with any in Middle Tennessee.
The team this year will not be as
arge as some that it will meet. From
resent indications it will strip about
140 or 145 pounds to the man, but
every one on it will be as fast as one
Of those fifteen inch German guns in
action. There is but little difference
in weight between the lightest and
the heaviest, and the whole ought to
result in an evenly finished and well
balanced team.
There is a pretty good looking
lunch of candidates out for the back
field jobs. They are low, we'll built,
lard twisted fellows who ought to be
able to stand a whole lot of punish
nent and intiict bunch of it on the
others whom they meet. Among
those who look best and whom Coach
Anderson is working in these posi-
tons are Nicely Leake, Green, who
has had considerable experience, Geo.
Whatley, Benton, McAdams, Aehle
and Stephenson. Green will probably
be worked at quarter as that Is the
position at which he has perforfed
heretofore.
Armstrong will probably be the piv-
OF man IN the line. He is tall, long
and rangy, and has the build of a
good man for center. He will be
flanked by set of line men picked
from Noble, Hight, Hayes, Hall, OH
yer, Woodson and several others.
There is bunch of end material that
will be selected from Lacey, Hill,
[nowlton, Tolley and Aehle.
But light work has been done so
ar. Most of the time has been spent
n tackling the dummy, blocking and
punting The first signal formations
were run through Tuesday afternoon.
The fellows showed a world of spirit
and everyone went into it like it were
cal business. Coach Anderson is de-
lighted with this feature of their
work, which was so evident in the
baseball team last spring. It's the
tuff that made mediocre team
championship contender. The same
kind of spirit this year will 60 far to-
ward making the team one of the best
in preparatory circles.
No schedule of games has yet been
arranged. Negotiations are on with
several of the nearby schools, includ-
ing Branham & Hughes, Battle
Ground Academy, Massey and one or
two of the Nashville schools. The
probability that the Little Tigers"
from the Sewanee Military Academy
will be brought here for the Thanks
giving contest.

FEW PASTORS HAVE
SERVED -FOUR YEARS
At FIRST METHODIST

EN- YEARS, HAD THE LONG
EST SERVICE.
Church NEARLY CENTURY old
First Pastor Was Assigned to Frank
lin and Columbia Away Back in
t820-Was Part of Duck River Cir
cut a Portion of the Time.

Interest of all Methodism in this
section is fast centering in the pro-
ceelings Of the Tennessee annual
conference which will meet at Pulas-
H October 7. Interest this year To-
calIy is heightened by the fact that
tbe First church, one of the largest
and most important charges in the
bounds of the conference must have
a new pastor, due to the memorable
four year rule.
1t has been almost century since
the first pastor was assigned to Co.
lumba. In 1920 Thomas Maddin was
assigned as pastor of Franklin and
Columbia. Two years later the
charge was called Columbia town"
and Thomas Maddin was again as
signed as pastor. But again the next
year Franklin was added and the
charge included this city and that
town. From 1928 to 1888 this town
was included in Duck river circuit. In
the latter year Columbia once more
appears in the minutes with William
McFerrin, member of family whose
name is inseparably linked with Ten
nessee Methodism, in charge.
From that time on until 1S49 there
was change in the pastor every
year. Rev. A. P. Young being the first
to remain longer than that period
consecutively. There were frequent
changes until 1862. From that time
until the close of the war no pastors
were assigned because no conferences
were held. Among the notable preach
ers who served this charge either as
pastor or presiding elder before the
war were these giants of Methodism:
A. L, P. Green, Fountain E. Pitts, Jno.
W. Hammer, ST..
After the close of the war John P.
McFerrin as supply served the Colum-
bia charge. Again in 1873 John P.
McFerrin was again pastor, and dur
ing this year the old church was de-
stroyed by fire. 1t occupied the place
Of the present handsome structure.
The pastors since that time have
been: 1874, A. w. Smith; 1875, Jas.
A. Orman; 1877, J. McFerrin Wright;
1879, Thomas J. Duncan; 1888, J. B.

Cherry; 1907, A. E. Clement; 1909,
A G. Dinwiddie; 1910, w. T. Hag-
gard
Comparatively few of the pastors of
this church have served full four
yeaers. The list since the war be.

FAVORABLE INDICATIONS.

TT HE circumstance that more than
 $4OOOO of the Goldstein Improve,
 ment company bonds have been taken by Juneau investors is indica- tive Of several things. It shows that local people have money for invest. ment in absolutely safe securities that provide assured incomes; that they have confidence in Juneau. and that they are ready to put their money in home concerns. All of them are ia. vorable indications.
 Another thought in this connection Is worth while. The practice of in. vesting savings in conservative secur, ities which produce assured returns and the certainty Of getting the prin. cipal back rather than to gamble with them in "get rich quick" propositions should be encouraged. It is a prac. tice that instills the right principles Of business and counts for permanent success. In the long run it will make more for the one who follows it than he can hope to make through specula. tion.

HEARST AND ROOSEVELT,
(New York World. )

AIO OBSTACLES should be placed IN in the way of political alliance
 between Mir. Roosevelt and Mir. Hearst. They are twin souls and be, long together.
 There are no other two men in American politics who have so much in common. Both of them detest the Wilson administration. Both of them are opposed to the Underwood-Sim- mons tarifr. Both of them are jin- goes who are fundamentally antagon- istic to the Presidents Mexican poli- cy. Both of them are in favor of breaking faith in the Hay-Pauncetote treaty in order to give subsidy to the coastwise monopoly. Both of them profess to believe that the Wilson ad. ministration is responsible for hard times. Both froth at the mouth at ev. cry mention Of the Colombian treaty.
 Both of them advocate regulated monopoly Both of them are against an impartial enforcement of the Sher. man Antitrust law.
 Both of them believe in militarism and imperialism. Both of them are against independence for the Philip pines. Both of them believe in cen tralized government. Both of them are on intimate terms with certain forms of Big Business. and both Of them favor the use of governmental power to make fortunes for favored in. dividuals.
 Of the two. Mir. Roosevelt has more ability and is more versatile, but Mir. Hearst has more political independ- ence and courage. MT. Hearst always finances his own campaigns; Mir. Roosevelt gets gentleman in Wall street to finance his campaigns; but this is a difference in method rather than of principle. If Mir. Roosevelt were as rich as Mir. Hearst, he would probably do his own financing too. MT. Hearst is more popular than Mir. Roosevelt and has a greater talent for appearing disinterested when put ting something over."

The mutations Of politics is an anus ing proposition if one looks at it for the purpose Of being amused. A few years ago all the Republican papers of the land were calling Democrats calamity howlers," and probably the Democrats did indulge in a good deal of Jeremiah prophecying for the polit. ical effect that 1t would have. Now, however. there is hardly a Republican paper in the land whcih is not howl. ing calamity with robust voice.
