Glenn Warmers resignation from
Carlisle and election as coach of the
University of Pittsburgh recalls many
interesting "reminiscences of the great
athletic tutors achievements during
his long regime at the Indian school
Probably the finest thing Warner ever
did for the athletic world was to dis
cover" Jim Thorpe. And thereby
hangs tale.
One day in the spring of 1908 War
ner had his redskin stars training on
the athletic field at Carlisle. A squad
was clustered around the jumping
standards, where Warner was attempt
ing to show the jumpers how to clear

course. George HORNE had not been
heard of at that time. The crossbar
had been placed at a height which all
the jumpers had failed to clear. War
ner had stepped to the standards and
was preparing to lower the bar, when
one of the athletes touched him on
the shoulder and said:
Wait minute, Mr. Warner, Jim he
wants to jump. Ha! Ha! He tink
he's a grasshopper."

NOT THE TIME FOR A SMOKE
Old Lady, Filled Up With Gar"

of an Explosion.

A robust old woman in the noun
tains of north Georgia was ill for the
first time in her life and doctor was
sent for. Partly by persuasion and
partly by force, the physician induced
his patient to swallow some big quf
nine capsules-a simple enough opera
ton, which, however, scared the old
woman almost to death. She was
soon able to sit up and her daughter
thought she would give tbs conva-
descent a treat. She took her moth

Warner turned and saw one oil the
students, an Indian boy dressed in a
working blouse and Overalls, just as
he had come out of the shop, where
he was learning trade. Warner was
preparing to shoe the buck" away
and tell him to stop bothering the ath-
letes when the youngster approached
the standards, and, springing from the
ground, sailed easily over the cross
bar.
Warner knows an athlete when he
sees one. Say, you" shouted the

PSYCHOLOGY IN GOLF GAME
Study in Which Myriads of Those Of
More or Less Thoughtful Dispo-
sition Love to Delve.

Psychology in golf is a study In
which myriads of those of a more or
less thoughtful disposition love to
delve. Not eften do such famous
players as Harold H. Hilton attempt
to go into the why's and wherefores Of
this phase of the game, interesting
though it might be. Like dog chas-
ing it's tail, no definite conclusion can
ever be reached except that the psy-
chologic mystery remains unsolved,
and that it always will be source of
never-ending interest. Hilton deals
with the matter at some length, and
because it is Hilton who says it, his
opinions will be read by all thinkers
who play golf and all players who
think golf.

All There Was for Him.

A poor shoemaker's apprentice was
sent to his masters home with some
work. 1t was early in December, and
when the lad arrived at the house he
found the good wife engaged baking
the special bread ready for Christmas.
The smell was delicious, and, shifting
strongly, the apprentice exclaimed
heartily:
"Eh, missus, but your spice loaf
smells grand"

good smells. for it will be all thou will

the coaching systems used and
the head coaches.

have brought home the bacon,
and at Cornell, where two sue
cessive victories over Pennsyl-

WHAT. THE ALTAR-RoY SHOULD
REMEMBER.

Nothing can be small or unimpor-
the angels covet. The first requisite
is punctuality. Who would keep
royalty waiting his own convenience?
When one is invited to a dinner
party, he dresses, not to crafty his
own vanity, but to honor his host You
recall the fate of one who neglected
to clothe himself in the wedding gar
ment. There should be no careless
ness or untidiness in the person of the
Kings page.
Every article worn by the priest
when saying Mass has deep religious
significance; SO, too, have the gar
ments of the server a special meaning,
and are to be treated with the reverent
care due to sacred things. .Punctuality
and proper attire are only the prepare
ton for public worship,-which con.
sists outwardly of reverent attitudes
and of adoring and supplicating words
placed upon the lips by Holy Church
herself.
All this, the Altar-boy, in his con-
spicuous place in the Sanctuary,
should consider, and remember espe-
cially when making the responses in
the Mass.
So great is the care of Holy Church
to treat the Word, when He becomes
flesh and dwells among us, with
proper difference, that she has sci
apart a language for this purpose. In

is forgotten, and the noble Latin Ian.

Respect for superior can be shown
in no way so manifestly as in the

strive to speak deliberately, grammati

may use contractions and colloquial

addressed in the language He Himself
has chosen, each word should be per
fectly enunciated, dropping from the
lips like beads of gold.

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. BENEDICT, BISHOP.

At the age of twenty-five, Benedict,
noble Angle, gave UP high offices at
court and large estates to make a
pilgrimage to Rome. He came back
full of veneration for the Roman
Church, and pleaded earnestly for the
adoption of it's customs at home. BY
command of the king he made a Sec
ond journey to Rome, whence he re-
paired to Lerins, and there entered
the Benedictine Order. On the COM
pletion of his novitiate he was first
appointed Superior of st. Peters
Monastery at Canterbury, and was
then sent to Northumbria, his native
country, where he seconded st. Will
frid in introducing Roman customs
and the Benedictine Rule With this
end he built two ,abbeys, one dedicated
to st. Peter at Wearmouth, and the
other to ST. Paul at Jarrow He
brought from France skilled workmen
to construct stone churches in the
Roman style, and lit with glass win
dows, which were then unknown in
England John, the arch-chanter of
st. Peters in Rome, taught the monks
to chant and read aloud; and Benedict
made three more journeys to Rome, to
obtain proper church furniture and
books for his six hundred monks to
study. The pictures in the church
were so arranged, that the most
ignorant might learn from them the
great truths of salvation, and the duty
of reforming their lives. st. Benedict
lived to see his Order firmly estab-
lished in the North, and his country
conforming in ritual, as in faith, with
the Roman See. He died in 800.
When Benedict lay dying, Sigfrid,
his successor, also found his end ap-
preaching, and had himself carried to
the side of Benedict, that they might
together select a new Abbot. To-
gether then they chose Ceolfrid, be-
cause he also had been trained in
Rome, and by his fidelity to Roman
| traditions, would secure the union of
| Wearmouth and JarroW.

more be had for the happy ending of

What kind of Christian can a
