USED TO SMOKE IN CHURCH According to Scott's Stories It Was Custom in Eighteenth Century

Although austere enough in some re- spects, Presbyterians of bygone days would have deserted no irreverence in the action of the army chaplain who. when holding a service at the front. invited the congregation to smoke while he preached. Sir Walter Scott makes it evident that smoking during the ser mon was common enough practice in Eighte enth Century Scotland. When Duncan of Knockdunder, in "The Heart Of Midlothian" went to kirk, he pro quced a short tobacco pipe made of iron as soon as the congregation were seat cd after prayers and the clergyman had read his text + lighted it with the assistance of his pistol flint and smoked with infinite composure during the whole of the sermon. At the end of the discourse he knocked the ashes out of his pipe and joined in the prayer with decency and attention. From the London Chronicle.

 CHALLENGES THE STATE

The Adams school football team challenges any school team in the state. It must be a grammar school. of course. but the bigger the better The Adams grid squad is proceeding on the well worn pugilistic and pugnacious theory that the greater the heft, the louder the crash when they land.
 A snappy kid team has been formed out on Adams street, and the opponents will have as hard a time winning. as the challengers are having getting a game. Ap- plications for hard knocks should be left with Armstrong or Bright, at the school.
