The efficiency of some of our
physical directors is an interest
ing thing. Last week during foot
ball practice at the Stadium High
young Leahy, a clever gridiron
player. fell while taekling a dunn
my, and hurt his shoulder. Leany
was carried to the dressing room,
and Coach A. ]. Bell, according to
Leahy, advised him that he was
only bruised and he could walk
home.
The lad. suffering exquisite
pain, managed to deliver his
newspaper route that evening,
and went home. His parents
called a physician. After one
glance the doctor declared that
the football players collar-bone
was broken in two places.
The injury was so plain that
the doctor noticed IL without
touching the lad. But Coach
Bell said il was only a bruise
And Leahy is to be out of school
for 16 weeks as a result.

Englishmen Love Freedom for All Ex-

In the April Woman's Home Com

teresting and complete account of the
militant movement in England. His ar

Daughters" and it gives the reason why
women are using violence to gain the
vote. Following is an extract:
As / talked with the men and women
OF England during my stay in that coun-
try last summer, ] came to understand
why militancy exists there. A line in
John Galsworthy's latest play, The
Fugitive" gives the clue to the situa
ton; 'Englishnen love freedom for all

of human nature, who knows his own
people; and by experience among them
only tend to confirm his dictum
"Militancy did not come-out of the
women; it came out of the conditions
surrounding the women. That is what
so few people outside of England realize
and so few few people in England are
willing to admit. Militancy is called
hysteria,' sex-madness,' 'megalomania,'
and host of other things less lncom-
and not one whit more true.
