HEAVY BONDAGE OF CUSTOM
True Freedom Viii Be Found to Be
Rare Gem, When All Thlngs
Are Considered.

Freedom is a priceless gem-and
a rare one, also; for in spite OF the
fact that we live in an age of relig.
ious freedom, freedom Of the press,
freedom of speech and comparative
freedom of our mode Of living, yet
we are bound in various ways-such
ways that make real freedom rare.
AS a free-born al we could dress as
we chose, eat as we chose and
live as we chose, providing we did not
encroach upon the rights OF others.
But this we do not do.
We dress as custom and fashion de.
cree-be 1t comfortable or not, and
we are quite careful to follow fash
ions guiding finger though III daily
life and from year to year. And so
we are not free-but bound securely.
What that bondage leads to may be
seen any day on any street where
people pass by.
Then there is another kind of free
dom that should be highly priced and
SOu6ul IUly duu llldI ID SUul ICOuo llSo'
dom of manner Many persons live
a rather lonely life simply because
they v considered graciousness
as worth %cultivating. "Gush' and
''splashing over are objectionable Of
lenses to our conservative world.
And yet there is a happy medium
between that and the coldly critical
person. A little freedom is helpful
in all walks of life-for high or low
as u stations may be, we are of a
common clay that must molder in
time into common dust-for after a
century or two who could distinguish
dust of prince from dust of pauper?
1t is worth while to bend a little
to be a bit friendly with the pilgrims
passing along the road of life. Fol
we need each others aid and we need
a certain sense Of freedom in manner
and speech. Frozen faces were never
conducive to happy hearts. Unbend
a little!-Dedham Transcript. =

Your Pace.

Have you eve tried to pace off an
eighth of a mile, or any other dis.
lance? II you pace an eighth Of a
mile you will probably find that it Will
take you considerably more than two
hundred and twenty yards. The trained
walker learns to gauge his pace &C.
curately. Do you know how long
your normal pace is? The way to find
out how long it ought to be Is to
drop q string from your eyebrows to
the floor. One-half Of that distance
is the normal pace. British soldiers
are trained to step 31h inches, the
Germans one-half inch less, French
and Austrian infantrymen step 30
inches, and Russians 27h.-Ths

TRAGEDIES Of WAR
Graphically Told in Letter Of a
German Lieutenant.
French Countryside Pictured as in
Chaotic condltion-Pathetic In
cident Of the Death Of an Of.
ficer Of C%hasseurs.

The Hague.-The tragedy Of war is
pictured In the letter of an unnamed
first lieutenant, which appeared in the
Cologne Gazette.
The woman in whose house l am
quartered, and whose husband is in
the field,' he writes, told me in tears
this morning:
Since two months no news. We
do not know where my husband u.s.
1.-The woman and her family do not
even know in what regiment the mar
serves. That is terrible. The woman
wanted to know how many French
had been killed. l tried to console
her by telling her that many had
been made prisoners of war. And now
she has fastened every hope upon this,
when / hear that at home children
60 to school and that everything pro
crosses more or less in the regular
channels / am compelled to say a
prayer Of thanksgiving that our coun'
try has been spared. You ought to
see the disorder here. The country.
side is overcrowded with troops, there
is no administration, the crops are
still in the fields and famine threatens,
The people are irresolute and detected
1T is now eight days since the
fighting in the forest Of. I think
of the event with a shudder. 1t is
different when you are fighting out
In the open, but to fight in the woods
in the deep, dark forests awful
The explosions of the shells reverber'
ated through the forest and the heavy
bombs cut lanes through the trees
We did not even know most OF the
time where the shells came from. It
was impossible to return the fire. In
the morning we saw the French cook
their breakfast, but we could do moth
ing because we had to conceal our
position. .....
There is one picture l will never
forget. On September 1 we shot down
q patrol of chasseurs-two men who
were in cover were taken prisoners,
When the skirmish was over I went
with one of the chasseurs to where
the officer in charge of the patrol had
fallen.
II saw Immediately that the man
had died from a shot through the
heart. But the chasseur' who accom-
panied me, and who evidently was
very fond of the officer, asked me
with great concern in his voice:
docs my officer liver
Il shook my head saying: No, he
is dead
"And then a very touching thing
occurred. The soldier fell to his knees
beside the dead officer and prayed
for a long time. A gripping picture
On the ground, in a flood Of sunlight
lay four dead horses. My men stood
about them in a ring and in this cir
Gle rested the dead officer, with the
private praying at his side. We were
silent-the silence Of death was upo1
us-but through it we heard the step:
Of Death, who may gather US tomor
row.
Il, too, said a prayer for the brave
enemy, the dead comrade-Lieutenan
of Reserve CASTOR Forgues Of Dor
deaux."

Commends the. judge

AS the Judge Of one Of our western
courts was leaving the bench, aftet
making a decision in a case, the losing;
attorney remarked with some heat that
he was hopeless Of getting aI"square
deal" in that court. And what did the
Judge do-7reconYene the court and
mulct the attorney in heavy fine for
the iagrant contempt? He did not,
He came back It the attorney in good,
strong Anglo-Saxon and prepared to
thrash him II the insult was repeated.
lnyoluntarily W. are impelled to say,
Good for the Judge, who thus valves
an easy advantage Of judicial power
and as man TO man submits his,honor
to, the c.ivalric wager of battle!!---

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Although the Fed
eral League owners intimated at the
beginning of their annual meeting that
there would be another year of base
ball war, the club owners reached the
decision late on Saturday night to
carry not more than twenty players.
Also it was asserted that, while fifteen
major league players who were not
with the Federal League last year had
been signed and that negotiations for
eight or ten others were under way,
no extraordinary salaries were to be
paid, it was said. All intention to OBJ
tain the services of Walter Johnson,
Of the Washington Americans, has
been abandoned.
The league members also decided to
charge big league prices, 20. 80 and
rs cents and 81, for box seats. Last
season prices were cut by the Indian
apolis, Pittsburgh and Brooklyn clubs.
Presiden. Gilmore asserted the
stories given out by officials of or

Fisher Has Fine Material for
Championship Team
First Game To Be
with Rutgers.

With fine prospects for a champion
ship team Columbia opens its basket
ball season on Friday, when it faces
the Rutgers five on the Morningside
Heights court. Although only three
veterans are in the lineup, the Blue
ard White five is further advanced
than any Columbia team in years. 1t
is certain that Harry Fisher does not
expect to see it caught off its guard,
as it was last year in its early season
encounters.
Captain Reynolds Benson, who alter
mated as guard and forward last sea-
son, is definitely slated for guard
position along with j. c. Lee, who has
been his running mate all through high
school and college. The pair played
together on the Horace Mann School
five, and when they reached Columbia
they made the varsity five in their
freshman year. Fisher could probably
not find pair of better qualified
guards IN the university. and if their
play is up TO the standard they set last
year it is believed they will have little
difficulty in holding down the best for
wards in the Intercollegiate League.
With the release of the ineligibility
ban on Calder Fisher has a forward
who ranks with the best in intercolle-
giate circles. He played on the st.
Lawrence five two seasons back and
was at Columbia all last year, though
he did not play on the varsity five be-
cause of the one year rule. He is an
accurate shot, wonderful dribbler
through broken field and keen fol-
lower of the ball.
Wegener. who as a freshman was
centre of the Columbia five last sea-
son. will play forward with Calder, at
least through the early season games.
II he demonstrates his ability to keep
up with Calder he will get the berth
regularly. Fisher has tried him out
thoroughly in practice and thinks he
will match up with Calder.
The centre position has been
troublesome place for Fisher to fill. and
he has at last selected Walker, \ big
law student, who played two years on
the De Pauw eleven. Walker played on
the Columbia scrub five last year, and
although he was slow, he has improved
wonderfully and should ft in we'll.
