NEW YORK, Oct. s.-Eastern
football teams enter tomorrow on
the third stage Of the seasons grind.
In the west. the big fellows, after
weeks OF practicing, are making
their second showings in intercolle-
giate combats.
Interest in the east is largely CEN
tered on the Syracuse
struggle at Princeton The Tigers
start against Georgetown two weeks
ago, was anything but auspicious as
they defeated the southerners only
l3 to 0, in a game that showed many
Princeton weaknesses. Since that
time. however, Coach Speedy Rush
has driven his men to the limit, and
indications today were that the Ii
gers will go into tomorrow's game
more like the princeton of former
years.
Harvard is expected TO have a
walkaway with Carlisle. The Indians
are weaker this season than they
have been in years, as was shown
when Lebanon Valley College held
them to a scoreless tie.
Yale undoubtedly will have a
tougher time with Lehigh but
should win by a good score. The
Blue rolled up total of 81 points
against Maine, which is indicative of
fairly good offensive aggregation.

Santa Claus Up to Date.

Every year I am tempted to come out
on housetop and tell the young and
self raising generation the truth about
Santa Claus.
l believe it only right that the chill
dren should know Santa Claus no Ion
ger goes about in a dinky little sleigh,
delivering toys down the chimneys. He
simply couldn't do it if he tried That
kind of thing was all right when his
business was small and he was young
er than he is now. In those days he
made the toys himself-glued even the
little tails of the little toy sheep in
place, stuck the little eyes on the tops
Of theh little heads, painted the little
bodies as different from the real thing
as he could and do it quick. and then,
hitching up his six r%.7 us, delivered
the whole batch before sunrise Christ
! mas morning 1t is different now.
Santa Claus is old, and all he does is
to live On the profits of the business.
The business now is run under the
name of s. Claus & Co., and the firm
has many workers drivers and
| the rest. Some of the employees Of
this big firm have grown SO careless
| that they miss little boys and girls who
live in out of the way places. Old
Santa Claus never did such thing in
| his life.
! # any of our young people are over
| looked this year they must not blame
| Santa Claus. He is just as jolly and
good as ever. They'll have to blame it
on the new driver that looks after their

every Frenchman who can afford such

Yuletide.
In Russia the Christmas meal consists

home December 9, 1914 at 1918
o'clock, i a.. m. She was i'll with
pneumonia for about ten days; her
friends hoped she would recover,
but God, in His all-wise power, knew
what was best and she fell asleep
peacefully, to await the resurrection
morn. She had been a consistent
member of the Methodist church
for 46 years. and about two weeks
before her last illness, moved her
membership to Balsam.
She was born May 6, 1841. Had
she lived until February II, 1915,
she would have been married fifty
years. The ladies of the Method

Balsam, were planning to celebrate
her golden wedding. She seemed
very much pleased with the idea
and told many of her frierdS about
it.
