 The stranger deplores the fact that he is not like the other young fellows having this problem settled by es-l corting home the girls whom they brought. He can't take the bakers dozen home, dtnat's certain. He is in doubt as to whether it shall be the prettfest or the wittiest, the tall, thin girl or the plump, little one, and SO on, down along the line of irresistible damseIs. He has hirted so desper- ately with each and every one that there is not one among them but will imagine that she is the favorite. At length. he choses the girl whom he found to be the best company. He was helped in his decision by the fact that this one girl raised her eyes TO- guish1y to his as she tied on her bon net. Her companions dropped theirs demurely If he had mentioned dur ing the evening that he was fond Of athletics he had had plenty of time during the few hours to regret that remark. Instead of the girl living in some nearby house, he began to have an uncomfortable feeling that she was laughing at him as they walk ed not one mile but five of them e=e they reached her door. Her folks were so startled at a man coming home with her that a head was thrust out of every window, peering at him.

2sTH BERTHDAY or AsEERICAV
 AMATEUR ATHIETTo UNION

The Amateur Athletic Union, the governing body of amateur sport fn the United States and the parent Of the Canadian union will celebrate its twenty-sixth birthday today. It was on Jan. 1, 1888, that the Amateu1 Athletic Union was launched. with a membership of fifteen clubs, and a board of governors composed Of nf- teen representatives from various parts of the country. Prior to the or ganization of the A A. U. there Vlas a body known. as the National Aa- America but ft was controlled abs0- 1ute1y by New Workers, and tfis 1a- turaIly peeved the athletes of Chfcag0. San Francisco. Buffalo. St. Louis. PhfI- adeIphia and other cities, who ds-
 nanded a say in the organizatfon thar governed them. The A. A. 10. held its first American amateur Champion ship meet in Detroit in 1888, while the older body held a champfonshfp meet in New York. The A A U. wac such a sturdy infant, however. that the so-called National associatfon had to give up the light, and fn 1880 a consolidation was effected In 1889 the plan of districting the uniot wan adopted. At first there were only four districts, but now there are Metro po1itan, New England, Middle Allan tic, Southern, South Atlantic. Westeru. Central, Rac1f1cs Eac11lC NOEEl1Tea.L. Texas, Hawaiian. Southern Pacific and Intermountain associations, and the Intercollegiate athletic union, and the fencers, skating, military athletic. national cycling and. Catholic athletic organizations are also amliated with the A. A. U. James E. Sullivan. who was reelected secretary-treasurer at last months meeting. has held oncn In the union since it's birth Tn 1883 ti.e union had not a. dollar in it's treas ury, and it now has about S25.00O sur- plus. As evidence of the value Of the A. A. U. in encouraging athletics. it may be pointed out that previous to the formation of the union not a sin gle worlds record was held by an American. Since then, the America athletes have captured nearly a drozsn worlds records. The A. A. U. also led in the movement for p1aygrounds for children, public gymnasiums for men and boys and the adoption of athletic in public schools. Alfred J. LII Ir.. is now the president of the A.
