YALE STARTS CREW WORK
Coach Nickalls Springs Surprise by
Putting Edward Hartman at
Stroke on Varsity Eight.
CAPTAIN SETH LOWE AT SEVEN

NEW HAVEN. Conn. March 5.--Yaie's s
outdoor rowing season has started a fort
night later than usual, but with two
varsity eights Of experience and promise
boated by Coach Nlckalls.
Opening the season of 1915 as Yale
varsity eight were the following oarsmen:
Stroke. Hartman; No. Z, Low, captain;
No. s. Meyer; No. 6. Sturtevant; No. 4,
sheldon; No. 3. Kositzky: No. 2. Gilfillan;
bow. Hume: coxswain, McLane.
Nickalls. whose wizardry has brought
Yale two straight victories over Harvard
and wins over Cornell. Princeton and
Pennsylvania. all in one season. has made
up his premier eight for the opening of
practice with wholesale changes. Per
haps the most unlooked-for was the
trial of Edward Roland Hartman at
stroke. Young Hartman was varsity sub
stltute two season ago. but lost year
from the squad because of a hunting ac-
cident. He rowed bow in the Yale varsity
that last fall raced Columbia. losing when
Coombe, No. Z, tainted. He was stroke at
the Groton school and win be retained
for the present in that position on the
Yale varsity.
The experiment Of using Captain Seth
Low at stroke will not be continued al
present He viii be used at No. T. He
had always been a starboard oar till he
was tried at stroke last fall. In the
varsity shell last year he was seated at
No. g. The veteran Cord Meyer, one Of
tho best oarsmen of recent years at Yale,
Is again at No. g. He was a stroke during
his preparatory school career and It is
still possibility that he will be ordered
to set the pace for the eight. The pres
ence OF ex-CAptain Sturtevant In the
shell at No. 8 Is a pleasure TO the veteran
coach. for sturtevant Is a finished as
we'll as n strong oar.
With Jim sheldon again at No.
Eickalls has been able TO retain sour
oarsrnen In the waist of the shell who
were together for the last two seasons.
This combination Is a trump card for
the Yale-eight, which will meet Harvard
in June.

the word of appreciation. It came!
Eyes, yes, this is all very nice, but
what is its commercial value ?"
Of course the man was right, at
least he was, according to his way of
looking at things. A thing of no COM
mercial value is of no use at all in
this mercenary age, if it cannot be
turned into hard dollars it is of no
value.
These summer mornings one should
arise early and enjoy the fresh air
from the gulf, see the water gliding
by, sparkling with the rays of the
newly risen sun, the dew a diamond
on every blade of grass and every
leafy shrub; all this is of no CONNER
cial value, for it cannot be vurned into
cash, but the beauty of it all sinks
into the nature lovers soul and fills
him with thanfulness that he is alive
and has sight and hearing. But the
orchard and garden is of comercial
value, 1t is not all beauty and lowell
ness.
A stranger looking at our sand nat
urally asks the question, ''What can
be grown in this sand ?" and the repIv

thing that can be grown elsewhere"
To prove it they are taken out to the
garden and orchard where they see in
the garden great long rows of lettuce
large, solid heads. Take a head Of this
lettuce, Hanson's Improved, and cut
1t through the center and see the
crisp, tender, white heart, surrounded
with the green leaves, shading from
the pale green to the darkest green.
See the radishes of all varieties; the
asparagus, fat, white shoots, English
pea vines loaded with green pods.

varieties from the bunch onion to the
immense Bermuda Turnips and
French mustard for greens; curly
parsley for garnishing, sweet pota-
! toes, watermelons and musk melons;
crisp, white celery. Egg plants used
to be called a luxury, but they are
common things here for they grow
and bear enormously, and so one could
go on; just take a catalogue and see
the list that can be grown in this
section.
As for the fruit, great beds Of
strawberries, yielding their luscious
fruit from the last of March until
July; plums, peaches, pears and ap-
pies. Many have said that apples viii

THE BEST ROAD OF ALL.

| like road that leads away to pros
poets white and fair,
A road that is an ordered road, like
nuns evening prayer,
But, best of all, love a road that
leads to God knows where.
You come upon it sudden1y-you can
not seek it out;
It's like a secret still unheard and
never noised about;
But when you see it, gone at once is
every lurking doubt.
It winds beside some rushing stream
where aspens lightly CULVER;
It follows many broken field by
many a shining river;
It seems to lead you on and on, for
ever and foreveri
You tramp along its dusty way, be-
meath its shadowy trees,
And hear beside you chattering birds
or happy booming bees,
And all around you golden sounds,
the green leaves htanies.
And here's a hedge, and there's cot;,
and then-strange, sudden
turns;
A dip, a rise, little glimpse where
the red sunset burns;
A bit Of sky at evening time, the scent
of hidden ferns.
A winding road, lettering road, a
finger mark of God
Traced when the Maker of the world
leaned over ways untrod.
Seel Here He smiled His glowing
smile, and 10, the goldenrod!
I like road that wanders straight,
the Kings highway is fair
And lovely are the sheltered lanes
that take you here and there;
But, best of all, love road that
leads to God knows where.

CAPTURING THE
COMMUTER VOTE.

Suffragists have given the tired
commuter something else to live for
besides mosquitoes and alarm clocks.
By setting aside July % as Commut-
ers' Day, they have given the noble
army Of train-chasers the pleasing
feeling that for the first time IN his
tory they have been taken into real
consideration.
1t remained for the Woman Suf-
frage party of New York City to do
the trick. Every heroic member of
the committing clan was stopped in
his dash for home on the afternoon
of July % by pretty suffragist, who
presented him with a box of home
made suffrage candy and pleasant
smile. No explanation was vouch-
safed and Mr.. Commuter really didn't
know what it was all about until he
had gotten home and opened the gift
box. Then he found twelve suffrage
candies-one for each suffrage state
and a suffrage poem, which read as
follows:
Within this box are suffrage sweets.
Their number TWELVE-we pray
you note,
A stick for every western state
Where women have the right to
vote.
Wyoming first set woman free,
Then Colorado, Idaho,
And Utah followed, then there came
These states all in a suffrage row:
Arizona, Illinois,
Kansas, far off Washington,
Montana, California,
Nevada then and Oregon.

Pray help more suffrage states to
win,
So that twill take a larger box,
To get our suffrage candies in.

THE LUCKY

No one would ever accuse him Of
possessing too much sentiment. In

Is unimpeachable, 1t is not softened

So when he was seen on North Hill
car at 5 of a Saturday afternoon,
bearing an exquisite bouquet of hot
house flowers in their wrappings of
waxed paper, it was natural, he being
a bachelor, for a ripple Of curiosity
to have been created.
1t was too much for an old lady
sitting near him, and she leaned over
to admire the beautiful roses, blush
ing through their coverings.
