CHARLES MOORE. L.. s. FOR
ESTRY WORKER. REGAINS
MENTAL FACULTIES.
Mind Has Been Blank Since He Was
Overcome by Heat In Forest
Fire Three Months
Ago.

AMARILLO, Texas, Sept. 9.-The
sight of his sisters face brought
Charles Moore, a United States for
estry worker, back from living
ldeath.
Moore's mind had been a blank
since he was overcome in q forest
fire near Fraser. Colorado, on July
Is. He had no recollection of events
latter he felt pain in the back of
his head. His wanderings eventual
ly brought him to Amarillo where
he formerly lived. He obtained
menial work and was passed with
out recognition among his former
acquaintances, although big reward
had been offered for some informa-
tion regarding him.
Miss Susie Moore, his sister, is 4
clerk in the local postoffice. Moore
strolled past the office late yester-
day. His sister recognized him. She
ran out of the office and threw her
arms about him.
A puzzled expression overspread
Moore's face. He stared at her.
Then light of recognition came in
to his eyes.
Susie he cried. "How did ]
come here? Did they put out the
fire?"
Explanations followed-on Susie's
part. Moore could not explain. His
life for the past three months has
been a closed book to him.

was no inconsiderab1e element in bringing this situation about. It re-
 nained for Guy Nickalls to bring Yale into line in this respect MT. Nick alls is a sportsman who is ready. to race anybody at any time, and this inclination did more than anything else to bring the Ellis out of their shell.
 It was Nickalls who started every one by measuring the Harvard oars in the boathouse at Cambridge two years ago. He did so without a thought of harm, having at the same time the utmost willingness for any liar ward man who cared to do so to visit the Yale boathoase and measure oars and examine rig to his hearts con tent. Some persons were inclined to raise their eyebrows, but now no one would think of expressing either sur prise or concern of whatever sort over such an incident.
 Tn other words, Nickalls, whether he intended to do so or not, took the bulk by the horns, and, without bat ting an eye, revolutionized certain ac- cepted theories by making them ap- pear absurd and ridiculous. At Cor nell annually, when crews visit ltha- ca, the rival coaches find that boat houses on the Inlet a veritab1e clear ing house of aquatic information.
 Courtney will advise as to rig in the. waters of Cayuga and in waters generally, and coaches who, when much more about stroking than they did about rigging a shell, now, thanks to the spirit of Ithaca, have a wide knowledge of matters pertaining to rig. And this is all very fine thing.
