OLD GRADS PLAY

teen Count From Younger
Men.

With one of the strongest squads
they have been able to muster within
the past five years, the Alumni bas-
ket ball five rolled up a half century
of markers and defeated the high
school five, 80 to II. in their annual
battle Friday afternoon at the Y. NJ.
c. A.
Never at any time during at least
five years has as many men OF such
good calibre turned out to battle for
their Alma Mater. AT least four men
of the squad are varsity material at
the school they attend, while the
others are mo slouches'' when 1t
comes TO handling basket ball.
Bacon played the most spectacular
game for the Alumni. although the
work Of Allen. Cassidy, Rowe and
Witt is deserving of praise. Every
man on the old boys team played with
more pep that has any team of late
years. Lack of wind did not affect
them as il usually does an alumni
team, and they stood the gaff of the
hard contest even better than the
school lads.
Jimmie" Wolf Sullivan and White
man were the star battlers for the
high school. These three men carried
the brunt of the attack and bolstered
up the squad wonderfully. Sullivan
played sensationally at running
guard, while Wolf and Whiteman were
the most reliable cogs in the tan and
blue machine.

PROPER CREDIT TO NOBODY
Simple Logic Easily Proves That He
Has Not Hitherto Been Treated
With Justice.

The time is now arrived when No
body should come to his own. Hitherto
Nobody has not been treated with JUS
tice. AS one of the most important
persons in America, Nobody should
have statues erected in all of our
principal cities. Let us, therefore,
consider the claims of Nobody. In the
first place, Nobody knows. Take, for
example, the currency bill, the tariff
schedules, the status of philosophy,
or the art of the futurist. Nobody
knows about all of these things, when
all the rest are in entire ignorance.
Furthermore, if you want to know the
actual truth about these important
questions, and many more, Nobody Is
the only one who can tell you. Every
body takes some interest in baseball,
movies, vaudeville, bridge and high
balls; but when it comes to all the
things which are known as vital, such
as government, slums, etc., who cares?
Why Nobody cares Nobody is, there
fore, our best citizen. Hurrah for
Nobody!-Life.

Work a Watch Does.

Out of sight, out u mind, is par,
ticularIy true in regard to the mech
anism of a watch, and even those
interested in mechanical matters sell
dom consider the amount of work
performed by this useful little piece
of machinery. Take the balance
wheel, for example. In the average
watch this vibrates 800 times min
ute, $4,000 times each hour, $4,000
times a day and 157,7SS,000 times q
year. AS each vibration covers about
one and a half revolutions, the shaft
on which the balances wheel is mount
ed makes 236,6S2, 900 revolutions; and,
running at the rate of mile a min
ute, without stopping, it would take
6S3 days, or nearly two years for the
axle of the drive wheel of the locomo'
tive to make as many revolutions as
the balance wheel shaft of the watch
does in one year, and it would cover
a distance of over thirty-nine timer
around the world.

Through the door which the aide

by Turcas, filed in. To Westerling
they seemed like a procession of
ghosts. The features of one were the
features of all. craven with the weari-

harness held them up. A moving plat

moving. They grouped around the

"The enemy seized his advantage"

positions for the defensive" continued

"The chance!" others said in the

1t was the most natural conception
to military tactician, though any man
who made it his own might have
builded reputation on it IL he knew
how to get the ear of the press. Their

Yes, chance to end the killing for

abruptly out of his silence. We'll

The staff bent over the map, Ian
