WHERE THE COLLEGE FAILS

Sometimes the coach teaches his
men to play the game on the square
at all times and to be good sportsmen,
but this is not so universal as to justi-
fy us in saying that the college is
teaching high ideals of sport through
it's coachers. Every college teacher
knows that the namby- pamby methods
used by the college in teaching these
things are inefficient and can have lit
tie effect on ideals and character.
The college is not only failing to
teach it's students the highest standard
of sport but 1t is actually demonstrat-
ing to them a wrong conception of
sport by commercialiZing its own
games and showing how they can be
made to pay. Then it hopelessly
fogs the idea of amateurism by assum-
ing that its athletes are bona fide anna
teurs after it has exploited and profit
ed by their athletic ability and fame,
Just as they were before. When a
college team is coached and trained

the same way, and when the purpose is
the same-prestige and gate receipts

technicalities, sees little difference be-
tween the two except in efficiency. and

When Myra and Grace were seated at
the small table assigned them in the
large diningroom. they looked about
|. them with interest.
: The hotel is evidently very full, -
Myra remarked after while. And
as the people are all strangers to US,
we need not mind II we are some
what travel-worn.'
Grace did not respond and Myra was
aware that her remark had been un-
needed. Following the direction in
which her daughter was looking, the
older woman's attention was arrested
by young girl sitting on the other
side of the room.
She was pretty enough to make any
body look at her a second time, and
Bhe was faultlessly attired-almost too
elaborately gowned for an evening at
q country hotel, was Myra's secret
criticism.
Two men were standing by the table
talking to her. They had evidently
started to leave the diningroom and
had paused here on their way out.
She's pretty. isn't she?" was My
ra's comment. And the men evidently
think so too"
Yes" Grace said slowly, without
taking her eyes from the group. she

our waiter. Let us give our order. I
feel as if I needed something to eat. l
really believe that l am hungry"
Dinner over, they strolled out up
on the veranda where people were
sitting and standing, chatting mer-
rily.
In the valley stretching away from
the front of the hotel the lights were
appearing in the windows Of farm
houses. Over in the east the moon
was slowly rising. The night air was
fresh and fragrant.
1t was all very beautiful, Afyra
thought, and yet she was conscious of
weight of homesickness expressing
her. She wondered what Horace was
doing now. Glancing at Grace she
saw that she. too, looked depressed.

mother said, laying aer hand on her
daughters arm. Suppose we go up
stairs and get ready Tor bed"
Yes, and we have to unpack our
trunks yet" the girl rejoined with a
sigh.

upon her face. Myra and Grace rec

The confusion in high places, which
Is responsible for many diRniied bat
disordered utterances which do not
bear scrutiny notwithstanding the
eminenee of their origin IL further
emphasized by the strange conclusions
OF Lusk concerning the value of meat
Proteins as compared with the value
OF wheat proteins-if this nation ever
learns that the deaths of 100000
children under ten years of age in the
United States during the last four
years have not in any manner been
caused by prOteins of any kind. or by
the absence of prOteins of any kind, IT
Will be because the flock refuses at
last TO follow the false shepherds.
The extraordinary manner in which
purely speculative theorizing con-
cerning carbohydrates, proteins fats
and calories clashes with actual fact
was demonstrated at the anniversary
meeting of the New York Academy
of Medicine, November 20. 1918. when
Graham Lusk made the statement that
follows:
1T is necessary that the body have
constant replenishment of it's pro-
tein store. There is no doubt of the
milk proteins to that OF bread, beans
and Indian corn.
The proteins of rice and potatoes
hold an intermediate position between
the two CLASSES of proteins above
mentioned. Such facts make 1t pos
sible to classify proteins according to
their physiological value and they may
classes-A. B. and C. In a fourth
grade, D, might beong gelatine and
some other proteins which cannot re-
place the body protein which is con-
tinually wearing away.
Experiment with wheat protein
show that glaidin, which represents
nearly one-half of the protein of
wheat, is of inferior food value. It re-
quires more protein in the form of
bread to protect from protein loss that
| 1t does when meat or milk is ingested.
The same is true Of other proteins
derived from grains"
In making these extraordinary
statements before a group of learned
scientists. Lusk entirely ignored the
fact that meat protein, which he re-
ferred to in such extravagant terms,
when deprived of its mineral salts.
destroys life.
1t is evident, therefore, that he did
not establish his value of meat pro-
tein upon processed meat which we
have seen. after having been INNER
sed in distilled water and then fed
to dogs, kills the animals.
| Why, therefore, should he attempt
to estimate the value OF wheat pro-
teins or the protein of any other
grain upon the demineralized white
bread protein or the demineralized In
dian corn protein which he used as a
base for his comparisons?
How are the common people to
maintain respect for a scientific utter
ances when they involve conclusions
which are not only unscientifc but
utterly untenable?
! We have seen how in the absence
of the mineral salts, colloids vita.
mines, natural to all foods, no kind
of protein If of any value to any liv-
ing animal.
We have not only seen that such
protein possesses no value, but is ac.
tually harmful. Reversing the order OF
Lusks experiment it can be clearly
