Fifteen minutes earlier she repaired
to the old tree that had been to them
a favorite trysting place.
Ned came spinning along on his
bicycle, not moment late, fine
specimen of healthy, buoyant
young man interested and happy in
his work. He swung a coil of wire
and his tool bag to the road and was
over the fence in a joyous leap.
Dear grill" he said fondly, and
then started at Hetty in alarm, for
she was weeping.
Bit by bit the miserable story came
out. He consoled her, he reiterated
his love. He said nothing of revenge,
elopement or encouragement.

hopeful sanguine way, "all right If 1

you, can't II"
Yes, yes,' murmured Hetty bro

ing words! Why, not to have you tell
me how you think of me every day"
But you SHALL" announced Ned
definitely. 'You have agreed not to
write to me. Don't. You have prom

word. I'll arrange all that, but-trust

Ned drew from his coat pocket one
of the tools he used in putting in

"Yonder," he said, pointing to the
barb wire fence, lis a conductor right
at hand. I'll connect up half mile
down the road with Farmer Moore's
house line The feeder will go up
there" and he pointed among the
branches of the old apple tree.
ooh, Ned!" cried Hetty, clasping
her hands in ecstasy, "you-you don't
mean"
That | am going to put a tele-
phone especially for you up in that
tree. Why, every evening we can talk
over the line for hours, if we want to. -
You darling!" exuberated Hetty
breathlessly. 'Oh, how fortunate it
is that you know all about tele-
phones!"
I'll be at my task bright and early
tomorrow before your uncle is up and

NAVY ELEVEN PREPARES
FOR HARD CAMPAIGN

Annapolis, Md, Sept. 4.-In spite of
three successive defeats at the hands
of the Military Academy football
eleven, and the fact that the Navy
loses far more heavily by graduation
this year than the Army. there is
nothing like encouragement at An
napolis. Under Lieut.. Jonas H. In
gram, the new head coach, and Hard-
wick, the famous Harvard player
preliminary work has already gotten
under way. and there is a spirit of
confidence that strong team will be
developed, with an even chance of
defeating the Military eleven at New
York on November 81.
Two noteworthy things about the
preparation for the season of 1915 are:
First. that spring practice has been on
far larger scale than in former
years; and. second. that the coaching
staff has been much reduced irD num-
bers. Lieut.. Ingram was here during
the whole spring, and had all the
football men, except those engaged
in other branches of athletics, out for
daily practice. As the other teams
completed their seasons the football
men reported to him, so toward the
latter part of May be handled all the
members of the old squad. and was
able to drill a great deal of football
into them.
Besides Hardwick. Lieut.. Ingram
will have but two regular assistants
John II. Brown. a famous
line player, and III. l.. Ingram, who
played at end, the latter a brother OF
the head coach.

was that that enabled Harvard to give
Yale the worst beating it has suffered
in all its football history. But this year
things are different.
The Yale backfield for 1915 seems sure
to gain fame as one of the greatest in
the country. Alex Wilson, captain. Is a
certainty for quarterback; Guernsey will
be at left half. Scovil. a terrific line
smasher, will play the other half. and
the wonderful Harry lie Gore will be at
full.

drop kicking, as he did last year, unless

Brann and Hillman, ends, and Conroy
and White, linesmen, are among the men
that Yale lost in June. But nSpe of them
ranked as stars. Knowles and Aims
worth also were graduated. Both were
good halfbacks-but Scovil and Guernsey
look good enough to hold down their jobs.
Hinkey has left from the 1914 team
enough hnesmen to form tine nucleus OF
a stonewall line this year. The sopho-
more class of 1915 will send to him as
candidates at least ten who are sure of
being in the battle for line jobs.
THE backfield always has been my
greatest worry said Hinkey. I always
feel that when I have a powerful back
field that \can build a strong line in
front of II. And that is how / feel now.
TT is too early just now for me to pre-
dict what men will make up the line be-
cause haven't had a chance to see all
the candidates in action. But I am con-
fident of the future because the material
that is offered to me looks so good nat
urally that I am sure 1t won't take much

had but little time to put into the
work of athletics at the Hilltop because
of the new prep school which is being
erected near Rockville. Md. Father
Eminent has been here since the 18th
of last month and his work with the

of the time Father Eminent is the right
man in the right place in athletics at
Georgetown as he is we'll versed in all
branches, being a good football and
baseball player during his college

The schedule which the Hilltoppers
will be compelled to play this season
is the most powerful ever attempted.

teams during the early games as he

the Hilltoppers obtained their new

have the Blue and Gray enter this

idea OF the Rev. Donlon, S. ]. The
field is about a mile from the college

NOTRE DAME COACHES
FACE DIFFICULT TASK

Jesse C. Harper. coach of the Notre
Dame elevens faces the very difficult
task of building a championship team
with the lightest and greenest team ma
terial that the Indians college has offer
ed in many years. But Harper isn't
really discouraged.
Some of the sophomores may develop
quickly into real stars: said Harper,
land / am sure that before the season
gets very far along l can weld together
team that will be credit to Notre
Dame''
Only FIVE of the 1914 regulars survived
the June graduations. And only five Of
the fifteen second string men of last year
are available for duty now.
Cofall, a heady player, good punter
and drop kicker is among the few stars
that are left on the 1914 teari. He weighs
us and is a wonder either at haifback
or quarter. He is a certainty for one Of
the baclxfield positions Edward. one Of
last years star ends, is back. He weighs
only 1l5 pounds. but he's as fleet as

Harper doesn't need to worry about
the center of his line. The three regu-
lars of last year-Keefe. left guard:
Bachmann. right guard. and Fitzgerald.
at center are hold-overs. and this trio
constitutes powerful factor on the de-
