And merry birds a-singing?
Frolic. play all the day,
Not an hour of SCHOOL,"
But the merry echo,

Old Year Adieu.

Old Year Adieu.
Old Father Time, with visage
grim,
Marks fms on another year;
His harvest he has gathered in;
The swath was wide both far
and near.
The strife of battle RACES round
The ranks of fighters in the
van,
But cIashing arms and shouts
resound
Of victor and of conquered
The aged sire, with trembling
hands
And hoary lock of silvery
white,
Perceives the passing of the
sands,
The sunsets glow, the clouds
of night.
Mayhap there is a vacant chair
At home, but recently re-
signed
A loved one gone above to wear
The crown of bliss by angels
tWined.
The path to glory may not lead
With roses strewn about the
feet,
But hope and strive by word
and deed
Some soul 70 cheer. The New
Year greet!

Chicago, Nov. Football. the rough

toll OF twelve victims during the
1917 season, which ended with Thanks
givinv day games, according to reports
to the Associated Press today. The
number was six less than in 1916 ana
four less than two years ago. In 1914
there were fifteen deaths.
Defenders of the game pointed 10
the fact that not a fatality nor ser
ious injury occurred in the big univer'
stiles and colleges where the game Is
conducted under expert ehysical direc-
tion. All of the victims, with one eN'
ception. were either high school stu
dents or players, who, with little or
no training, participated in semi'pro'
fessional games. majority OF the
eases showed that the players entered
the game without proper knowledge OF
il, and without proper physical condl'
ton for so rough a sport.
The open style of play. instead OF the
smashing game which rapidly is being
discarded. has eliminated much of the
danger. in the opinion of Fred l.. Muir

BEAT HIGH FOOD PRICES
Ad Club at Portland, Ore, Is Conduct
ing Fresh Fish Market, Sell
ing at Cost.


Portland, Ore.-Cutting the high cost
of living in a practical manner is the
task essayed by the Portland AID club,
which is conducting a fresh fish mar
ket here and selling sea food at cost.
So popular is the market that the first
day it opened three tons of fish were
sold.
Sable fish, groupers, ling, cod and
smelt are sold for five to seven cents
a pound, while other fish markets are
asking twelve to twenty cents for the
same kinds of fish.
On the opening day crowd of wom-
en-, with market baskets, stood before
the doors waiting for the first fish to
be placed on sale. From that time
on sales continued brisk, and the AID
club, cooperating with the city admin
istration, has under way plan for
permanent fish market where all kinds
of sea food will be sold at actual cost.
The Ad club points out that If
people eat fish the fishing industry will
be promoted and other foods capable
Of being shipped long distances will
be released to help win the war.
