CAMBRIDGE. oct. 2S.-The Har- ward football team shattered the championship aspirations of the cornell eleven here this afternoon. when it routed the big red combina- tion from Ithaca, 23 to 0.
 The crimson eleven outplayed and outgeneraled the team from the shores of Lake Cayuga, and the Itnacans completed their own down fan by an exhibition of cratic foot bah that summed their adherents. who had laid many wasers at odds of live to four that Cornell would dupli- cate the victory of year ago. To- night Harvard supporters are hailing Coach Haughton as the miracle man Of yore.
 The Cornell players fumbled and tackled like novices and there was no cohesion or drive in their attack. For ward passes and field goal were responsible for a portion of the crim- son score. Cornell was not success frl in any attempts at a real play The game was remarkably free from infrineements of the rules, except three five-yard penalties being i'm posed during the sixty minutes of play.

The statement that After months

Only three persons have returned to

The Village Delivery Service started

235 heads Of families. using the deliv-

Every Saturday night, the patrons
can get their mail at the delivery win

One Of the strongest arguments in
favor of the delivery service is the ben

Why You Go to School.

In Pictorial Review for October. DR..
Frank Crane tells "Why You Go to
School" The article is interesting
enough and contains sufficient reason
to be read and pondered by all. In
summary he says: "You enter the
schoolhouse to find yourself" But he
begins:
Everybody is put into this world to
get from it all the happiness he can,
in the worthiest sense Of the term.
In order to be happy, you need to
express freely your personality. to give
all your faculties full scope. Happi-
ness consists in making the most of
what is in you. You go to school to
learn how to do that.
FIRST. You go to school to learn
to use the past. You are not Adam.
You are not the first man. There
have been millions before you. The
world has been a vast. laboratory,
where infinite experiments in happi-
ness and achievement have been made.
The result is in Books. There is no
sense in your wasting time in endless
tasks which have all been done before
you and the conclusions set down for
your benefit.
Every bee makes the same kind of
honeycomb his parents made. Every
beaver builds dam just like his great
great-grandfather builded. Every AMI
NAL begins where his father began.
Hence there is no progress. Animal
life simply goes round and round in
the same circle. But human being
begins where his father left off. Each
generation stands on the preceding
generators shoulders. So mankind
makes progress. while brutedom
stands still.
1t is in school that the Past Is avail
able. Those who study 1t have great
advantage over those who do not;
even more than millionaire's son has
the advantage over a penniless boy.
For the real inheritance of the
world. the real endowment of men. IL
the worlds accumulated information.
And it is free to all. Those who get
it, easily Guido those who neglect 1t.
And whoever refuses to take It Is a
fool
SECOND. You go to school to learn
how to use your fellow creatures.
You are not alone. You are a
thread in the social fabric. a brick in
the social wall, link in the social
chain.
What you get out of life depends
quite as much on how you utilize 9TH
er people as on what you do yourself
You go to school to learn organization.
You become a member of class. You
become duly pigeon holed. find out
your place. become coordinated.
So your offensive egotisms are
rubbed off. The thoughts and feelings
that isolate you are cured. and you
develop a group-consciousness that
increases both your contentment and
your efficiency.
You learn team play. AS the great
fortunes are made by combinations In
business, by trusts, SO the heights OF
character are reached only by the In
telligent use Of our relations with ouz
fellows. You amount to nothing until
you can keep step.
Outside the school is competition
| Inside is cooperation. And the prizes
of life are for those who understand
how to cooperate. The slaves Of blind
competition work for the kings Of CO.
operation. You go to school to escape
| the serfdom Of individualism and to
learn the royal secret, the socializa-

on Of life. the kinsship Of coordina.

ton Of life, the kingship Of coordina-
ton.
THIRD. You go to school to learn
about yourself.
The advantage Of culture is SELF
revelation. The ignoramus is fettered
by hundred decisions. The ignorant
mind is not a blank; 1t is as full as
the trained mind; only its contents are
all wrong. and poisonous. You go to
school to get rid of a mass Of misin-
formation.
It is a common fancy that the I'M
lettered savage is free and that the
gentleman and scholar is bound. The
contrary Is true. The savage is a
helpless slave to superstition, fright
ened by the forces of nature and living
only In destructive relations with his
fellow men. The scholars is the I'M
bound mind. The gentleman's is the
free existence.
At school you find the Masters.
Their realm is Books. You learn to
love them, and only then do you find
out what Is worth loving in yourself
You initiate them and only SO do you
discover your own originality.
For the true Master sets you free,
makes you conscious Of what is in you.
A young painter. looking upon the work
of great genius, burst into tears and
exclaimed: II. too. am an artist" In
the Master he found himself. The
young musician who initiates Beethov-
en-. the young writer who patterns af-
ter Shakespeare, are much more likely
to develop original genius than those
who consult only their own fancies.
What the greatest Of Masters said
OF Himself. Is true to a degree of all
Masters, If the Son shall make you
free. ye shall be free indeed"
FOURTH. You go to school to get
the one thing without which any life is
loose and weak-Discipline.
Discipline means that your intelli-
gence controls your feeling. and desire
does not lead your intellect.
So you learn tastes. You learn that
you-can change your tastes, mold
them, and make them minister to your
wholesome happiness and not drag you
down.
You learn to think. There is no
thought that Is Of any value that is
not disciplined. Thoughts are things;
they make and unmake you. And you
learn to herd them, govern them. drive
them as you choose. and not helpless
ly follow them.
And you learn to use your Will. A
tough and hard Will is the surest
guarantee Of a happy and forceful ca
reer. At school there is constant ap-
peal to your VIII. You must compel
yourself to do this. you must restrain
yourself from doing that.
Thus you come to Self mastery.
That is why you to 60 to school,
You enter the schoolhouse to find
yourself.
