training, or anything that would be prof.
 itGblo to the children for whom they were
 maintained?
 Sc it was that the industrial school was
 begun In September. 1898. without wait
 ing to make pretentious beginning, MT.
 Ward started this crusade against native
 white illiteracy He gathered about him
 some of the hoys of the county, boys
 whose circumstances were parallel to
 those of the one whose teacher could
 not teach him further, and whose parents
 asked recently that he be entered at
 Camp Hill. They were boys who had no
 chance to attend school, no chance for
 anything but to do the hardest sort of
 farm work in the crudest way.
 They began their school life at Camp
 Hill that first year in an odd looking
 frame building, divided into three rooms by rough partitions. There was one stove. in the middle room. The house was high off the ground that the wind came
 through the cracks in the floor. and the rain found it's way through cracks in the roof, but for the time it was either that
 or nothing, so the pupils cheerfully raised their umbrellas during recitation and took turns warming at the one stove. Later another room was added and the building continued in use for two years.
 Almost the first contribution the school received was 25 cents. given by woman VI visit the school, anticipating the time when her children might attend. Others raised and sold chickens and helped with the proceeds, and with such small things did the school begin. Since that time 1t has had the very generous sup port and financial aid of a number of friends of MT. Ward in northern and east
 ern states. and is largely through them that it has developed as it has. The largest fund from this state was an ap-
 propriation secured in the legislature by a man who was a few years ago stu dent in the school. This fund, however has never been released, as is the case with number of appropriations made at the same time for different schools in the state.
 1 After two years MT. Ward bought an old slave plantation Of 400 acres. On 1t was house that had been a beautiful ante bellum mansion. It was very much out of repair, and no one would live in | it because of the ghostly stories of it's being haunted It was put in order and became Mir and Mrs Wards home | Two other small houses on the place ] were repaired for boys dormitories and

 Some of the boys will cut wood, working with fallen timber in the woods lot. Others will repair fences. build new ones and do carpentering Sometime since the boy carpenters made an addition to Four Oak lodge the little classroom in the garden where Mr. Ward teaches agriculture md botany. Later they laid the founda- tion for a new print shop.
 Out on the lawn some of the boys will work with grass and trees and others will spend the work hours in side putting the rooms in order with spring cleaning. Two boys will wash the table linen. several will be in the blacksmith shop and the printing of flee.
 Or this day you would see some of the girls polishing knives and spoons and forks, others giving the dormitory house cleaning, and others doing their washing.
 On Saturday night there is a meeting of the literary society, or perhaps a tlavel study class. One of the latter was very attractive. Mrs. Saunders and Mrs. Tcelc teacher of geography, arranged an evening devoted to Holland and Switzer-

 There is Miss Eleanor Bissell of Cali forna, who has helped in the farm de partment sending funds for drilling q we'll for dip vat. and for other things needed in that work.
 Another is Mrs Saunders of the faculty. Last summer she renovated Goodwill hall, put the library in order, cleaned and fum- igated books and periodicals. added new book shelves, and made this dorntory even more attractive than before. She i5 associate principal, teaches history and has supervision of the girls classes in sewing.
 Miss Blasden has the department of English, and Miss Lund teaches mathe- matics and directs the physical training. There is primary department, the pupils advancing individually as fast as they can, as many of them are old enough to do the work more rapidly than would be possible for younger children. This is Miss Mabel Terrys department.
 There is a four years high school de- partment with few elective subjects such as Latin and modern languages. A course in piano is given, with Miss Frances Peck in charge of the music de- partment
 Practical courses are given in farming, gardening, fruit growing, carpentering. blacksmith, sawmill. wheelwright, print ing ba sketry, and for the girls plain sew ing and general household study. The print shop is in charge of Frederick Raper. and all farm work and the dairy are supervised by Jesse Boyette.
 Days Schedule
 You would enjoy a day at Camp Hill. especially at this season when the school looks its most inviting, and you would find there some of the busiest, happiest young people in Ala bama. Saturday is the school holiday. The day begins at o'clock, when one Of the boys starts the fires for break fast. Other boys are feeding the stock and milking The milk and cream are separated and carried to the house before breakfast. Breakfast is not later than o'clock and immediately after the schedule for the day Is read. It Is arranged according to the weather. On this Saturday the sun streams into the dining hall through dogwood blooms and new green leaves and the woods are alive with mocking birds bluejays and other birds. It is just the sort of day when one wants to be out of doors and when the boys know that the farm must be put under way. Some of them are detailed to blow, others to plant. There are to be fielns of corn. sugar cane, potatoes and gar den vegetables. All those are sold for the maintenance of the school or are used at the school, ant the work is part of the boys training as well as part payment of their expenses. the

The money for 1t was given by Philadelphia woman, who chose to put part of her resources into this work Tor training and educating these boys and girls The building her money made pos slble Is the home for 2I girls who other wise would probably be deprived of th,s opportunity to be in school. Goodwill hall seems to have an especially beautiful sig nifieance. 1t was built by woman, 5. woman who had,been fortunate in ne wing money and with 1t wealth of sympathy and understanding. It is the gift of q woman to younger women, to girls who have no other chance It Is their first home in new life that takes them from narrow, unlovely surroundings and al- most unprofltable labor and carries them out and into a life that is of soul and mind well as of body Country girls have so much genuine worth in their natures. They have, almost invariably, high sense of honor and of duty. Many of them are ambitious and more of them would be SD if they had any incentive, and any en- couragement to try to grow beyond their routine life. They do not readily take the initiative. since from childhood they are repressed. And because they have SC much that makes for character, it is worth a great deal to do something for their advancement It Is something that Is lasting and that turns the tide for the better
 The girls who are living in Goodwill hall are spending busy days. for there is SC much to be done There are two teachers with them, and the library is in thei, building. There the girls study. and often they carry their sewing there. enjoying it as their living room.
 Farming

The school is changing this by teaching agri- culture.

the officials at all three of these col leges that for years Yale has had pretty clean hands in the matter of players.
 And another thing that graduates of other colleges are aware of is that there is no concentrated effort on the part of Yale alumni to canvass the prep schools for good athletes, thing that has been practiced at the two other universities, according to pret- ty reliable gossip. Good athletes in the prep schools have had little diff culty in finding the necessary schol- arships paid by a graduate or grad uates of the other colleges, an all most unheard of thing at Yale. And Yale has lost some good athletes in this way, as t11e Yale men themselves know. In any question of the eligi- bility of her players neither Princeton or Harvard has anything on Yale.'

He was beyond all medical aid when the ambulance corps responded and Dr. J. H. Beaudry ordered his removal to St. Vincent's hospital where he died a few minutes after his arrival at the institution.
 The body of young McGrath is held at St. Vincent's hospital where Cor oner John J. Phelan will investigate the cause of the death. Medical Examiner s. M. Garlick says it is his belief that the attack of heart failure was brought on by the heavy blow Harry received on his breast when he was the victim of a flying tackle Ill the football game two weeks ago.

HEART DISEASE
 KILLS YOUNG PLAYER
Park City Lad Who Sustained Injury Sometime Ago Succumbs to
 Heart Trouble.

Bridgeport, Nov. 19.-Stricken by an attack of heart failure brought on by an injury to the breast sus- tained in a football game about 2 month ago, 14-year-old Harry Me- Grath of 674 Howard avenue, and a clerk in the West End store of Vim cent Bros, at 1870 State street, was transferred to St. Vincents hospital in the Emergency ambulance at 9:20 yesterday morning where he suc- cumbed at 9:30.
 The stricken parents are all the more sorrowful because until 1910, Peter Francis, then the same age as Harry, died in the same manner. He was stricken with heart failure and died within "A hours.
 The injury was received in a foot ball game played on the circus lot about two week ago. McGrath was a fullback on the Crasho, Jrs., and iE circling the right end of the Bengal eleven the opposing team, McGrath was thrown heavily to the ground, sustaining a possible concussion of the brain.
 Harry attended to his duties as clerk in the store for the last two weeks unmindful of the seriousness of

Heavy,veight Competition.

In the last fifteen years the world at large seems to have lost the knack of producing more than one good heavyweight for every half-decade.
 From 1900 to 1905 there was no one to even give Jeffries a light debate. Then Jeff retired. He started back again, but never arrived. Johnson ruled from 1910 to 1915-another fve-year span-with no one around 10 keep him warmed up.
 Whether Willard will carry -out a five-year rule remains to be observed but the scout who can discover some one to beat him within the next year or two will be on his way to a fortune. The main drawback being that even the keenest scout around the landscape has a hard time dis covering gold in a salt mine.
 None of those now floundering as heavyweights seem to have a chance with Willard. And to go and get a new man will require at least three or four years of experience. So the Kansas delegate has better than an even chance to reign as long as Jeff and Johnson did before him.
 Some debate originator has opened an argument as to the greatest foot hall ends that ever played. We have five nominations to make-practically on a par-Hinkey, Shevlin and Kill patrick, of Yale; Campbell, of liar yard. and Snow, of Michigan.
 "Thorpe's greatest game,' says a "Eooster for Eddie Mahan.' "wss the one he played at Cambridge and his boosters have but that one game to prove their claim" On what is quite the contrary, Thorpe played quite bit better football against the Army and Penn than he did against liar yard. And another of his greatest ex- kibitions was against Brown, where he was the star in beating powerful Brown eleven 33 to 0.
