Close Game Expected

"One of the best games of the season will be played at Redwood park on Thanksgiving, according to the present indications" said Lonnie Noojin, faculty director of athletics at the University of Alabama. "The football season will be closed with this game, and together with the fact that both Alabama and Georgia, the opponents, will be battling for a good standing in the s. I. A. A., an unusually close game can be expected.
 Alabama is in good shape following the defeat at the hands of Tulane, which is perhaps the greatest surprise of the present season. The news of the defeat was not believed in Athens, Ga., where I was attending the Georgia-Tech game. The defeat was startling, but I believe it will help the Crimson s chances of downing the Crackers, who have good team.
 Five men will be playing their last year, according to the present indications, and 1t is their desire to complete their gridiron career with 8 victory. We are making extensive plans for the game, and will expect a large crowd"

MEMORIES

By Julia Nicely Finch. Sometimes as twilight shadows flit Like shy, wild birds on dusky wings About me, as I dreaming sit Beside my hearthstone here alone; I am a little girl again, And standing by nay mothers knee; Unknown the world of busy men. Like hound at leash l strain and stir To loose the fervent fold of her. The world outside Is calling me And all my childish soul replies. But ever closer her fond arm clings: Let mother love you little while" And. ah! the blessing of her smile! The love within her tender eyesl I seem to see her. hear her now. l feel her hand upon my brow Thrusting back al wayward curl.
 Mothers darling little grill? How could I know? How ever sec A day that could dawn on earth foe
 me
 That there'd be no mother to hold me
 so?
 No gentle voice whose tenderness Would breathe upon my life and bless? That I'd sit and dream alone: alone Reside a cold. unembered stone?

COLUMBIA CHAMBERMAIDs
From the Rochester Democrat ar Chronicle

From the Rochester Democrat and
 Chronicle
 It Is said, on what is presumed to be good authority, that 30 chambermaids employed in the three large dormitories at Columbia university have been forced to strike for six-day week, and the interesting news is vouchsafed that they are paid the magnificent wage of 67 cents per day. Although not distinctly stated, the impression Is permitted that if these eminently useful adjuncts to higher edu- cation are allowed one day each week for themselves, they will forego the per diem for the one day of leisure. As- suming this proposition to be true, they are already receiving an honorarium of $4.O2 per calendar week. Obviously, if the chambermaids should be given the same per diem compensation of 67 cents for week of seven days, while working six only, legislation similar to that which re- suited in the enactment of the Adamson eight-hour law will be necessary. So far as known, there Is no permanent or S"ii~aeoiA oi uiilVciSlty OOrInitOry cnam- bermaids, hence there is lingering sus- picion that the difficulty will be obviated by the importation of armed strikebreak- CTS Just why the trouble has not been submitted to a board of arbitration and mediation has not been explained. It is not intimated, though, that the strike will interfere with the term activities of the university, even If the endowment funds of the institution are endangered.

in the facts and knows how to handle them. The first feminine member of Con-
 gress should avoid the sort of speech that Is never delivered at all, but ap- pears only in the Congressional Record tor home distribution. Such deliverances are not even vocal. They are dummies, what may be called the marlnoettes of speechifying.
 Some eminent statesmen have carried through a high mission without making Lincoln's greatest speech, an immortal inscription on the table of the ages, contains but few lines. Lincoln was a tremendously powerful debater. What he said was convincing. sank into the soul. He was not, and never desired to be. an orator of the ornamental stamp. When Washington wanted to speak to the whole country he preferred to do 1t in print, as in the Farewell Address. And Webster's speeches were most potential in the school readers. Miss Rankin, as she herself declares, makes speeches with facility. This ease of utterance and self confidence may be fatal gift in a leg islative career. Good craftsmanship (l1ere Is the trouble in gender again) Is better than poorly aimed rapid fire. The first congresswoman will certainly have an attentive audience-at frst-per- haps later.
