GRID TEAMS USE MASS. PLAY
New Style of Attack Has Been Legal ized by Rules committee-Taci<Iing
 From Behind Prohibited.

The mass play devised by George Foster Sanford, the Rutgers college coach, may be adopted by elevens of other colleges as a result of the an nouncement that the new style of at- tack has been legalized by the football rules committee. The play consists of the alignment of three of the four backs immediately behind three ad- joining players on the forward line. It was used effectively by the Rutgers eleven and proved formidable when a little ground was needed to retain the ball or when the team was near the enemy's goal, but in one instance last season it was declared illegal.
 MT. Sanford submitted the question of its legality to the rules committee and obtained a decision that the play was legitimate provided no part of the bodies of the three players forming the secondary attacking line was within one yard of the line of scrimmage.
 A suggestion by MT. Sanford that rule should be adopted prohibiting the cutting down of player from behind was approved by the committee in- formally. He described it as "the most dastardly play in football, a ham, stringing, knee-breaking, face-smash- ing play that allows man on one side to injure a member of an opposing eleven"

CHINESE DISLIKE SOLDIERS
Unlike the Japanese They Have Con. tempt for the Professional
 Fighting Man.

The well-known olden dislike of, even contempt for, soldiers common to the industrious masses of China, in town as in country, is based on their experience that the soldier is a loafer most of the time and terror to the country when war is in the air. They have not glorified valor or quite duty, of dying for ones country, al though when they do fight they face death with a great indifference.
 Discussing this phase of the Chinese character, Tone Noguchi, the Japanese writer, says in the course of a recent article, according to East and West |: ''This Chinese hatred of soldiery busi ness or the encouragement of effemi nate indolence is well explained in a famous ballad written by Pc Chu-i called The Arm Broken Old Man. This old man was not informed till he received in his youth an order to become a soldier and Intentionally broke his arm in order to be excused from such a duty. Although his arm pained badly on a cold or rainy day, he was glad to be thankful for it, for while his friends had been killed in the battlefield, he alone could enjoy a long life. What a different sentiment from that of us Japanese, whose loyal ty to the flag. and the imperial house is taught to begin with the sighting of our own lives"

GOLF QUITE POPULAR SPORT
Becoming Close Competitor With Baseball for Title of National
 Game-Has Firm Hold.

It is an indication of hopeless pro- vincialism for anybody to deride the game of golf nowadays. This sport has taken such a firm hold upon all classes of people, it has become so universal and its popularity is so per manently founded that the jibes and wheezes of dull wits no longer have any force. Only the hopelessly igno- rant now characterize it as sissy" It is, in fact, a full-blooded, strong-bodfed and absorbing sport that demands the best brain and muscle that can be put into it. Golf is really becoming a close competitor with baseball for the title of the national game.-Kansas City Journal.

 Royce was not destined to see his aunt when he arrived at Ferndale the next morning. The old family servant met him at the door and greeted him with genuine pleasure in her face. She was Mary Barker, true as steel to her mistress and loyal to all of her kin.

Reading for a Boy.

We wish we could get the boys to read ''In Tune With the Infinite," Lub- books Pleasures of Life," Drum mond's Natural Law in the Spiritual World" Wagners "The Simple Life," Serviss' Astronomy With an Opera Glass;" and similar books, all of which could be read in the time that boy usually fritters away. It needn't take away a moment of the time devoted to fun and play, though it might divide time with the usual branches of study.
 We speak of the above books be- cause they tend to awake ones divine and happier. The greatest part of lad is his spirit. With that, impulses, aspirations and tendencies are created. Without it, his life becomes negative and vague. These books in places may be little difficult to appreciate, but boy can get some flavor from them that will be a decided benefit to him.. It is the way to acquire diligence, pur- pose, insight into the meaning of things, the love of duty, the grand heights of self-reliance, traits and qualities that glorify boy.
 The fact is the boys spirit is mis- used at home and school because it is not fed on the food that strengthens It. It cyphers and parses and refuses to admit to its heart, courtesy, cour- age, work, aspiration, reverence and other divinities that are knocking to get in. The reading of these books will change all that and actually put 8 boy in tune with the infinite.-Ohio State Journal.
