CHICAGO LINEUP
GREATLY CHANGED

Chicago, Nov. 15.-The University
of Chicago football squad left today
for Minnesota for the annual battle
on Saturday. Coach Stage was forced
to shift the lineup. With Coch out
for good and Moulton too sick to play,
numerous changes in the forward line
will have been tried this week. The
most likely battle front move Gorgas
from center to guard and sends Mel

holding down center.

No decision was rendered after the

CORN MARKET
EASES DOWN
Prospects Of Increased Grain
Movement is Respon-
sible.

AL HL
Chicago, Nov. 15.-Prospects of an
increased crop movement resulting
from a more liberal supply Of cars
tended today to ease down the corn
market. Attention was also given to
fresh efforts of the food administra-
ton to bring about a low range of feed
prices as a means of enlarging the
meat supply. Embargoes on two lead
ing eastern railways counted likewise
as a weight on the market. Opening
prices, which ranged from the same
as yesterdays finish to half cent low
or, with December 1.19 Ia and May
Liz to LIS Ia, were followed by a
slight reaction and then by a mod
crate general decline.
Oats were upheld by evidence Of
demand from the seaboard. Sellers
appeared scarce.
Commission buying caused frmness
IN the provision market. Weakness Of
hog prices had no contrary effect.
Rallies ensued owing, to upturns in
the oats market. but the effect failed
to last. Reports were current that
several SPECTATORS who acted as per-
sistent bulls had been called before
the federal district attorney. The
close was nervous at the same as yes
terday's finish to 1-2c lower, with De-
cember $1.19 Ia and May s1.15 to

really something of such very small conse-
,quence The proper way to relate oneseH 10
pictures for instance, is just to look at them
often if one is interested; occasionally, II one
is not'' This quite deity touches the real
difficulty which people make in appreclatlns
art; they are more concerned over understand
ing pictures and music than ever seeing the
one and hearing the other There has grown
up a certain false notion about belonging to an
apprecative circle of art lovers; 1T assumes
that the true art follower must generallze and
classify But to generalize about art matters is
the last stage of long and intimate acqualnt-
ance with the concrete examples themselves.
The only way to be intelligent about pictures,
music, sculptures, books, is to have personal
of these things. The arts are to be
seen and heard by everybody. 1t is only as
they have been seen and heard and have thus
become stimuli to creative effort that they have
become arts. More of our people are seeing
pictures and sculptures and hearing music
than ever before, and it is perfectly proper to
declare that we are thus growing in art appre-
citation. What we say or neglect to say IN the
way of art congratulations has no immediate
bearing on the healthful condition of our arts

AN UNFORTUNATE SELECTION.

Many of the presidents well-wishers regret
that he did not give more consideration to the
selection of chairman of the censorship board.
In this case, as in that of the unprecedented
promotion Of DR.. Grayson, his choice must be
regarded as unfortunate. In response to
communication from members of his cabinet
recommending the creation Of a committee on
public information, combining the functions OF
censorship and publicity, Mr. Wilson named
censorship board, including the secretary Of
state, the secretary of war, the secretary of
the navy, and George Creel as chat rman. Rea-
sons for the appointment Of these heads of de-
partments are apparent and sufficient. No
good reason has been given for the selection Of
Mr.. Creel, who is sensationalist and is for
Creel first, last and all the time. The work of
a censorship board is important and delicate
There is no danger that responsible newspa-
pers will disregard the boards requests. These
papers are cooperating with the authorities at
Washington in preventing the publication Of
news reports which might embarrass the gov
eminent in the conduct of the war. They will con-
tinue to do so but they regret that the president
has not put at the head of the censorship board
man whose ability and experience give as
Burance of the exercise Of wise discretion. Mr.
Creel does not fill the bill.

Commander of Gun Crew on Mongolia
Does Not Think One Shot

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
LONDON, April 2S.-Lieutenant
Bruce r. Ware, u. s. N, commander
of the Mongolia's gun crew, declared
his belief that the one shot his men
fired April 10 at German sub
marine, did not sink the U boat.
"All we know is that we fired at a
hostile vessel with periscope," he
vessel, but we knocked off the per-
iscope."
The reporter to whom Ware made
this statement, called the American
officers attention to the statement of
an eminent British submarine expert
that the smashing of a periscope did
not necessarily mean destruction oil
the u boat.
81 do not believe the submarine
was sunk" Lieutenant Ware re-
joined The British expert referred
to, pointed out today that with a per
iscope shot away, a submarine could
submerge, after closing valve. wait
for favorable opportunity to rise,
then replace the periscope and DE
ready for action again. This expert
said in the British experience of fight
ing against German submarines, 1t
had frequently been found that q
boats which it was thought had beer
destroyed in such a manner, were at
work again almost Immediately, none
the worse for the experience.
Lieutenant Ware forwarded his
formal report to the navy depart
ment today. He would not discuss
its contents.

THE Gate City does not assume re

cations must furnish their names
not necessarily for publication. bu;
for the information of the sditor.l
To the Editor of The Gate City:
1 have received a communication
from one who signs Taxpayer
without giving residence address, and
l take this means of replying:
To Taxpayer
You mailed me a communication
and for some reason you did not care
to sign your name. In answer to
same the city engineer has given me
the following statement:
Some time about the year 1873
survey of the entire city of
Keokuk was made and an initial
monument was placed at the in
tersection Of Third and Main
streets, replacing a monument
that had been there for a great
number Of years. There were
also established from this monu-
ment other monuments at various
street intersections, all over the
city, which are made just as per-
manent as the original at Third
street.
When it becomes necessary to
make a survey, it can be made
from any one of these monuments
and it can be made just as &C
curately from the northeast, south
or west The law does not re-
quire 1t to be made from any
one special direction but only
from authentic starting points.
If the above is not what "Taxp9y-
err" wants, he or she may call at the
city hall and take the matter up with
the city engineer.

Is by no means bad food. Perhaps it
was the name that set people against

been found for dog fish, 1t is quite
likely that the prejudice right here at
