THE PATHS OF GLORYv

'Tom' Shevlin is dead. Yale's miracle man, beloved by every son
 of Eli, ended his earthly existence this morning, a victim of pneum onia.
 Yale is enshrouded in mournins, and
 Yale hearts are saddened We'll they
 might be. Tom" Shcvlin was of that
 type which colleges wish the world to
 consider as representative of the col
 lege man. He was a credit to the
 New Haven institution, credit to the
 college world at large
 Shevlin was a martyr to what he considered his duty. Not many weeks ago a battered and bruised Yale foot ball team was making desperate eff forts to rehabilitate itself for the fast approaching hattie with Princeton. Leaden skies overhUnS the Bowl. The aspect was dark. Day after day Yale's football warriors worked and per for the invaders from New Jersey. Suddenly there was a rift in the clouds. ray of sunshine shot through Tom Shevlin was hurying from the ] west. As if by magic the situation 1 changed. The prospect frightened ] Enthusiasm reigned. The miracle man" was on deck. Within com l paratively short time, the tide turned.
 The Yale machine worked without a 1 hitch. The Tigers came from their Jersey jungle, proud and confident 1 The sun set that day and they re- l turned with their banners trailing in the dust. Yale had won. Tom" Shev-

were too much even for his vigorous robust frame. To add to his depressed spirit, Harvard easily won it's annual combat with the Blue. Harvard had a supcr-elcven. everyone admitted. It is probable that the defeat in the Cambridge stadium weighed on his mind and when the Grim Spectre charged his line, a weakened body was unable to withstand the attack.
 Tom Snevlin is dead. There is woe in every Yale heart. Years will pass, football games will be won and lost, coaches will come and go but every Yale man will always think ten derly of big, self-sacrificing, do-or-die Tom Shevlin. His spirit will live forever.

For the Cows. Consideration.
 (Bridgeport Farmer)

Governor Holcomb is a responsible man. He stands far above the mob of boys" who constitute the Repub- l1can machine, and who spend their waking hours thinking out way to get rid of him.
 It is no secret that among those whom he addressed, Thursday night, were two men with an itch to fill his shoes, who were wondering why age s,ould finger so long upon the stage.
 That Governor Holcomb should have addressed to his embryo sue cessors a speech which may be re- garded as closing his political future, is a remarkable example of the extent to which the habit of partisan think ing can control political utterances.
 When the governor of a state says that "the American flag is the laugh ing stock of every nation,'' he out rages propriety, and says what is un- true.
 The flag that is supported by a hundred million people, nhabiting the richest soil in the world, and em- blowing the greatest wealth ever as- sembled on the planet, is not the laughing stock of any nation.
 This nation is courted by every na- ton in the world. Its good opinion is sought. It's enmity is avoided. The Allies come her for goods and loans Germany abandons her sub- marine warfare at our request. Aus

tria is about to do the same. Never in history has this nation been more potent, more respected and more fear a nation have been more loved than this, when the strife is over.
 Governor Holcomb says that our Mexican policy is ridiculous. To whom is it ridiculous? To none, except those whose itch for office exceeds their patriotism. To none except those persons who with scant patrio- tism withdrawn their money from the United States, to empty it in the sweating of the peon labor of Mexico.
 Let Governor Holcomb's meaning be reduced to plain language. What, then, does he say Why does he conceive the flag to be the laughing stock of every nation? There is but one answer.
 This country is not participating in the war,-that is why the flag is ridiculous to Governor Holcomb.
 And what is ridiculous about the residents Mexican policy?
 That the United States is not fight ing and killing Mexicans?
 What else does he mean, what else can he mean, but war, war in Europe and war in Mexico?
 For Governor Holcomb clinches his oiatribe against his country and his Country's government and his coun- try's fog, with the final insult: That the only animal that does not pro- tect its young is the sheep" That this was true before the United
New Britain herald., 1915-12-29

States was hcrn."
 He says in affect, 'shcep and the United States are the only animals that do lot protect their young"
 What protection is Europe giving to its young, when iG hurls them in their strong youth by the millions, against machine made death?
 What protection would Unitedl States be giving to its young if itI nadly and Ennocessarilv engaged inl two wars, hurling the youth of Amef-I c2 to the same slaughter?
 Governor Holcomb ought to Nnoys that the footing Of tho New Havenj brought incidental death to more of his coLrtrymen than has hcen brought to Americans in Mexico as incidents to the disturbance there.
 If anything in America disgracet the American flag, it is that states1 men who have been able to control and discipline railroad corporation1 in their own states, should out of sheer madness of partisan fever, see to overthrow the nice balanSe by which the United States remains al peace, the most fortunate, and thf most humane country on the globe.
