A PRETTY STORY OF ALBERT OF BELGIUM Aided Bride to See Her Hus- band Who Was in
 Trenches

Dunlirk, January 2-(Speca1)-A young Parisian woman married to an artillery officer just before the war broke out had followed his movements through the battles of the Marne and the Asne, but when he was transferred to Flanders he was lost in the chaos. The young bride left Paris for DunlSirk and tried vainly at the French headquarters to get a pass.
 Finding that impossible, she began her search, travelling in a peasants cart part of the way to the Belgian headquarters behind the Yser. She pleaded for per mission to see the staff, and there, in room filled with officers she asked for just a moment" with her husband if he lived. But the officers shook their heads. Her husband was In the trenches, and so it was beyond reason.
 Just then a tall young officer wearing eyeglasses. who had been studying q map. turned and looked at the fair visitor. Madam he said in answer to her tears. "you shall see your husband"
 He picked up a telephone and spoke for a few moments, then, turned to her again.
 If you wait for an hour your husband will be with you" he said, and bent over his map again
 In q little over an hour the husband entered, bewidered at the sudden recall from the trenches: and as he entered his young wife threw herself at the feet of the officer who had granted her request and seizing his hands kissed them fer yently.
 As she went out at the door she ex- plained tremulously to her happy but amazed husband how kind the young of ficer had been And he was q Belgian with 8 heart of gold sine said, He will attain fame
 That was King Albert" said her hus- hand

As Clay. the recruit center of the B. A. C.'s, seemed totally unable 10 hold down the giant visitor Dr. Glow re- moved him from the game and placed Luther Strange, who had been playing right forward at center. and Brazel- ton at right forward With this new shift the locals attempted spurt. It failed dismally as the change at cen ter had been made too late. The stam- ina and endurance of Luther Strange had been exhausted in the forwarl po- sition and when he attempted to hold down center against the giant Dubard he made a weak showing and the vis- iting center kept on piling up tho score. In the second half Dubard scored five baskets, making his total of eight for the entire game.
 As far as the playing of Birmingham m was concerned there was much to crit ieize. The failure to do any passing may have been partly due to the nard blocking of Atlanta, but it also ap- peared as if every time a local play CT secured the ball that he would throw for the basket. Thus most oi the shooting of the locals was from the middle of the floor. Atlanta. or the other hand. played a strictly pass ing game and fled" Dubard, Fo-be. and Graves. Usually one or all three of this trio were ensconced under thu basket at all times and long pass ts any one of them meant score.
 For Birmingham, the playing of La ther Strange in the first half and tha' of McGowan throughout the game made up in part for the lack of experie nct shown by tho rest of the squad. The score: Atlanta 42, Birmingham 20.

 mingham-McGowan, captain ant left forward; Strange, right forward Clay, center: Black, left guard. Bar. ker, right guard; substitutes.

The Unity of Life


 There is nothing, I think that brings home to one more conclusively the unity of life, and therefore the unity of knowl- edge of that life. than the attempt to study any particular subject by itself and confine yourself to 1t alone. You find very soon that you cannot do so. No aspect of life can be separated from the rest and understood even in any small degree without some knowledge of the rest of life. No part of life stands alone. Every phenomenon of life is the esult. not of one or two causes alone. but )f the interaction of innumerable causes. To get near the understanding of only one item you must be able to estimate more or less truly all the forces that make life and the objective of life. As with the eddy of . river. to estimate 1t you must know not merely the eddy, but much also of the river it's volume and its speed, the density of It's waters, the configuration of its banks and it's general direction The observation of the eddy only would lead you into the widest fallacies.

TWO KINDS OF BOYS AND
 KIND OF MEN THEY WILL BE
Ny ADA PATTERSON

A group of children were playing about an elevator. It Is a fascinating playspot for children in the crowded city that has so many automobiles and so few playgrounds. As I pushed my way through them to take the ascend ing chariot one slipped forward and said: r
 Lady, won't you give me nickel?"
 Like crack of a whiplash came an- other voice: You miserable beggarl" s The two boys stood before me. ono with a deprecating smile. the other with a. blaze of anger in his eyes. One had long features, a pale face, shift ing eyes. The other square of should CTS, round of face and head and an upstanding little figure of lad. They were about the same age, 10 years Both were neatly but not handsomely dressed. Both were probably sons of mechanics living in one of the tene- ments near the great downtown office building But what difference in their outlook upon life and what a differ ence foreshadows in their future. One will sneak through life. the other will march through it. One will slip through the world, ,apologizing for his acts, when he Is detected in them, or when someone resents them. The other will travel life's road unafraid, unashamed, on good terms with himself. Between these boys is the distance, a worlds width, between those who have and who have not self-respect.
 The long featured boy with the pale face is a human lean-to. He will never do anything for himself that someone else will do for him. He will beg his mother to give him pennies when by running an errand for a shopkeeper in the neighborhood he could earn them. He is the kind of boy who VIII take presents from his sisters instead of buying gifts for them. He will lie late abed and let his father or mother build the fire. He will eat all of the

From the moment Referee Hubby Graves blew his whistle to start the game the affair assumed the character of q prize fight, soccer football and football game all rolled in one. The players were inclined to rough things up and Coach Graves of the University of Alabama, worry" sort of a smile. and let the boys go at 1t, hammer and tongs.
 The feature player of the evening was Dubard, the giant center of Atlanta Dubard managed to score eight baskets without unduly exerting himself against the combined playing of Clay and Strange. The Atlanta forwards Forbes and Graves, also did the bulk of the scoring Forbes getting six ringers and Graves figured in the scoring
 The game started fast. For a few min utes it was a nip and tuck and then Dubard was left unguarded and scored an easy basket. A foul was called on Atlanta and Captain Tomme McGowan missed goal. Another foul was called on Atlanta which team was showing pugilIs- tic proclivities, and McGowan threw goal. For another few minutes there was no scoring and then the fast pace began to tell on the inexperienced guards of the B. A. C.'s, and tho Atlanta forwards aided and abetted by the center, Dubard began to Lombard the basket The first half closed with the score 22 to 10, with the Atlantans at the laughing end.
 In the first half the pace had been So rough that time had to be taken out several times. McGowan, the Birming- ham forward, was brutally thrown by Carter. the Atlanta guard. against the north wall of the gymnasium, but recov- cred after a few minutes and pluckily resumed play. The playing of Carter, the Atlanta captain, was particularly un- sportsmanlilSe.
 Towards the last of the first half Phy- sical Director Glow substituted Biscoe Seals in place of Barker at right guard, as that young man was lost chasing after the fleet Graves of Atlanta.
 The second half started with the B, A. C.'s determined to redeem them- selves. Biscoe Seals quickly shot a basket and the crowd cheered. Cha: was the last basket for quite an in- terval for the locDes as Dubard began to bombard the basket from all angles

 If Edith St. Clair Is convicted of perjury she may be able to collect $22.500. If she is acquitted she cannot get the money.
 Her attorney, Benjamin Slade, explained yesterday that if she were convicted an attempt would be made to collect the amount of the judgment she obtained from Klaw and Erlanger. This judgment was set aside by Justice Con on Miss St. Clair own affidavit that she did not have a life contract. as she had testified. This is the affidavit on which is based the per- jury charge on which she Is being tried.
 Mr. Slade said yesterday that her con- viction would mean that . jury had re- garded this affidavit as perjury and that she was consequently entitled to her judg- ment.
 After the justice had refused to permit Dr. Louis Lchtenstein. a nerve specialist, to tell yesterday what her physical and mental condition was in May. 1913, the trial was adjourned.

 -"Call the rounds and hitting in the clinches'' were some of the unl1ind things hurled at Referee Hubby Graves last night. The majority of the spectators were under the impress sion that they were attending the usual stag and were seeing battle royal"
 
 Manager Bill Milliken of the B. A. C.'s stated a few days ago that he would have a good team next year. We hope so.
 To change the subject, the stag next Tuesday night should make the fans forget the bitter defeat of last night.
 "Yank' OBrien of Jacksonville. Fla, and Sailor Dixon will do the honors. OBrien has knocked out Ed die Hanlon, popular favorite in this locality, and Dixon has also trimmed Hanlon to the queens or anyone else's taste. and therefore both boys appear equally matched Let the best man win.

Is Your Entrance
Hall AttrdctiU 2?
Simplicity and Formality
Should DE Keynote of
Decorative Scheme.

How many people realize the in
portance of the entrance hall, / Won
Ger! Those who have never given
the matter much thought would, with
| out doubt. attach more importance TO
the furnishing Of the rooms proper.
| But. as the hall is first seen by the
stranger upon entering the house, IL
| is or should be. the keynote of the
whole. And il should, above al
! things. be inviting.
There are different types of halls.
| And perhaps the kind most difficult
TO treat is the narrow and stuffy en-
| try which dishgures so many houses.
| The secret might be said TO be no
treatment at all: that is. to have SO
little in the hall that it looks quite
bare. But-and here lies the kernel
of the matter-that little should be
right.
In a hall such as this a table and
two chairs are sufficient. The chairs
should flank the table at either end.
The shell of the hallway, however, de
mands attention. When the shape Of
| il totally lacks in distinction, il is
upon the color and treatment of the
walls. woodwork and floor that de-
pendence is placed TO supply this lack.
The walls should be perfectly plain
and very pale, and of a tint which is
4
with pale gray woodwork and a very
dark floor if stained, or with a black
and-white thing, would not be one
whit too austere. Against this back
ground a courageous soul need not be
afraid to use black handrail and
treads for the staircase, and white
spindles and rises. The furniture, the
table and two chairs. should be of
an antique oak or walnut, which had
, been either blackened by age or ar
tificially. And on that table there
might he placed a brilliant yellow OF
red bowl for flowers, a silver card
salver and two silver candlesticks. a
small and brilliant oriental rug might
further add color if the floor was
tiled
The owner Of a stuffy narrow hall
need not be discouraged in the hope
of improving matters 1t may be a
far cry from the narrowness which
shows oaken woodwork, red carpet,
red newel-post light. heavily hung
hatrack and a laced front door TO
prim scarcity of furniture, a jewel
like rug, and cloistral grays and
blacks and white; but the change is
one which may be accomplished with
song in the heart-and lived in joy
and Thanksgiving.
