A different condition exists,
however, in catching kickoffs, as
they have a definite direction and
are easier to judge. A player may
catch kickoffs on the run. Be-
sides the catcher runs less risk, as
he is travelling fast and in bet
ter position to dodge.

Orville Parkhurst, one of Taco
mas best amateur baseball
catchers, is proving something
of a sensation at the position
OF quarterback in the Lincoln
Sophomore squad.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1916-10-06

punts.
Too much attention cannot be
given to catching punts In daily
practice. Numerous air currents
which come from openings in the
grandstands, or other sources, Of
ten divert the course of a ball thus
making it difficult to Judge ac-
curately.
In catching punts or kickoffs it
Is well to grab the ball against the
body and in doing so bring the
leg into action by pulling II up in
such a manner as to not allow the
ball to drop to the ground after
the catch.
The quarterback must make
sure of the catch before he gives
his attention to the men who are
rushing down to tackle him. Once
caught the ball should be carried
in such a way that one point is
we'll up under the arm and the
other point resting in the palm
Of the hand.
When tackled the man carry
ing the ball should wrap both
arms around it. 1t is foolish to
attempt to catch a punted ball
while on the run, as the chances
of missing it are greater than the
chances of catching 1t. A runner
should never run straight at a
man, because injury is easier
avoided by sidestepping and TAX
ing the force of the blow on the
eide.

AN AMUSING CROUCH.

President Wilson is unable to do
anything satisfactory to the Chicago
Tribune. When the President dealt
kindly and patiently with Germany,
he was criticized for his weakness
and lack of back bone; and when
kindly methods proved unavailing and
he sent an ultimatum to the Kaiser,
the Tribune had a chill. The Presi-
dents "adamatine" note was liable,
In its opinion, to jeopardize the
peace Of the country.
For time these unreasonable
criticisms of the President were quite
generally considered as mendacious
and unpatriotic, but that time seems
to have passed. It's criticisms are
now being classed with the stories
told about amusing grouches, this
one for example:
The chronic grumbler, while am
bling homeward one evening, was
heard saying to himself: IF supper
Is not ready when get there I will
make terrible fuss, and if it is
ready I will not eat cussed NOR.

DEEDS. NOT YEARS.

IT'S deeds not years, that make lfft
Seem long upon the earth.
A man may live till fourscore years
Be counted from his birth.
But when at length he bows his head
To natures last great call,
A marble shaft will merely tell
He lived, and that is all.
Another hvin, half that time,
Will fill with deeds hds span;
And tho he dies, he stfll will live
Within the hearts Of man.
No crumbling marble to remind;
No sculptured shaft he needs;
His is a lasting monument
OF fair and noble deeds.
'Twere better If we spent less time
In sinful, idle scheming
AS planning some absurd career,
Or of mission dreaming.
And more in Icing kindly acts
To make life's burden lighter,
Thus, tho our stay be short on earth
Our deeds would make it brighter.

HARLAN,s PREDICTION.

a.. w. Harlan was a gifted pio-
neer of Southern Iowa. He arrived
at Fort Des Moines in 1884, ard lived
in southern Iowa and northern
Missouri until 1911, when he died in
his one hundredth year.
On May LIST, 1850, he started for
California with the gold rush Of that
year.
For 40 days he travelled westward,
with his OK team and three cer'-p"n
ions, and each day Ahe ''''S''f oeu III LUIS
3. -5SgsSR brief account OF the
events of the day, and an occasional
prediction Of what the future had in
store for the country through which
he travelled on his way to the Pacific
Coast.
The April number for 1913 Of the
Annals Of Iowa, contains the Harlan
Journal in it's entirety, and on the
18th day of his trip, while passing
through Decatur County, Iowa, he
made the following record and pre-
dictons: f2','' roH.
Tuesday, 14th. We took the plain
est road. It had been made by teams
turning off for grass-though it Was
the wrong road-we lost four miles
by it. Our road today lay over very
rolling through rich prairie. A grea
\ many teams in sight winding ovel
the prairie hills. Looking oyer this
vast expanse of prairie and behold
ing the energy of our people loof
forward to the time that it will al
be subdued, fenced with. wire and
hedges and every farmer will have
his own chemical apparatus and with
a little manuel labor-burn water fol
fuel-we have crossed the last branch
Of Grand River, made 13 miles.
II is now contended that process
has been discovered by which water
can be changed, by the addition OF
an inexpensive chemical, into Ii
q,ldd fuel more powerful than gaso-
line. It begins to look as though W
were on the threshold of the realiza-
ton Of the Harlan prediction made
Sc years ago.

Ellis history and theology were full
Of originality. Indeed, they were
absolutely original, for he invented
them as he went on. This gave to
his sermon the charm of perpetual
novelty
To the credulous Methodists Mr.
Roosevelt made this statement:
/ was president seven and haH
years. This naticn during all that
time never for one moment permitted
any power to wrong. this country or
to wrong Americans either in their
persons or property or to make US
recreant to our duty to others; and
yet during those seven and a half
years not one shot was fired by any
man in American uniform against any
foreign foe, and not one American
man, woman or child was slain by
representatives Of any foreign nation.
His reference was to Mexico. Very
well, turn to the Tribune index for
1904, under Mexico. We find the
entry, July %, 1.-TWO Americans
Shot" In the year 1906 the record
for Jan. IS is 81. a. Sanger Murder
ed" and for JAN %, "Yaquis Kill
Four Americans" But the tell tale
year in 1906. The INSULTS" to our
flag were piled thick. Here are some
of the entries: American Fishing
Beats Seized; American Fishermen
jailed; American Sailors Charge
Tortures. It was in June of 1906
that occurred the browning "infamy'
as Roosevelt would have called it
il it had taken place under Wilson.
Read this: "How Americans Died at
Cananea" And then, oh, shame
faced Americans, read this "Rcot De-
MES American Troops to Cananea!"
There had been a mur derous 'r'ac'
break at Cana"c-,. mines. Several
Americ-lns were killed. What did the
} ,.nperilIed American survivors do?
They sent to Washington, through tn
, American counsel at Cananea a tele
gram urgently calling for help. Even
the Mexican governor of Sonora was
reported as asking that the United
States government send in military
force. But what happened? Why
Secretary Root consulted the chief Of
staff, and "the law officer of the wal
department think of the disgrace c
actually looking up the law!-and de
: cided that American troops must moi
cross the line" Imagine it, Uncle
Sam putting on a pigtail like that
when Roosevelt was president!
|, That this was a cowardly and alb
ject policy, we know on the highest
: authority. For it was Mr.. Roosevelt
himself who laid down the eterna'ly
, righteous principle in that same
> speech of his to the Methodists. Re
, ferring to the fact that Americans
had been killed in Mexico while VII!
son was president, he said:
, IF, the very first time such an jim
cident occurred, We had acted with IL
l slant decision and crossed the border
, mot within two or three days, but sc
} minutes afterward, had melted imme
t date punishment on the offenders
punishment of kind which would
have shown the extreme unwisdom Of
: repeating the offense, there would
never have been a repetition of the
l offense."

consider them educated, in the best
sense of the word, when they would
say yes to every one Of fourteen
questions he should put to them. 1t
may be of interest to you to read
the question. Here they are:
Has your education given sympa-

you espouse them?
Has it made you public spirited?
