"ATHLETICS FOR ALL"
Secretary Baker Points Out
Faults Of College Sports.
Students Not AthietieaIIy Inclined Left
to Fill Seats In Bleachers and
Not Encouraged to Take
Up Exercise.

A new err for college athletics IL Mt
hand II the mentors of sports In our
schools throughout the country will
put their shoulders to the wheel.
At a recent conference of the Ma
tionnl Collegiate Athletic association
Mt Washington Secretary of War
Baker urged athletics for all" In our
schools and colleges. lie said that
the custom of making specialized ath-
lctcs out of the stronger and healthier
students Is well enough In II way, but
he pointed out that the greatest fault
with collegiate sports. rs he saw 1t,
was the fact that students not ath-
letlcally inclined are left to III the
blcachcrs' seats, and not encouraged to
take up healthy exercise.
From n government standpoint In
these warsome times, the encourage.
mcnt of college sports means the ele-
walton of physical fitness for II large
percentage of the youth of the nation.
Men who are physically ut have the
qualities necessary to the good sol
der, and, In the eyes of the govern
ment, n cessation OF college sports
would do n great and unnecessary
harm.
The National Collegiate Athletic
association did not adopt n resolution
TO encourage college athletics on IA
greater and more democratic scale
than ever before with the idea that
college youths are to be trained for
the ranks Of the army alone. The
goal for which the governors of coli
legiate sports are aiming embraces
more than that. 1t points toward the
adoption of universal athletic training
and the encouragement of physical
fitness for all.
The message Secretary Baker gave
the college representatives, therefore,
has paved the way. The colleges have
only To follow the path.
Perhaps the greatest immediate
benefit To be gained through the uc-
ton of the association Is the effect
II will have on football. The great
gridlron sport was in II bad way prior
In the Washington meeting, because
many colleges took the view that drop.
ping all sports was the greatest patrl-
otto step they could take. Eastern
football, especially, VAS doomed to ex.
perience n season of depression this
fall had 1t not been for Secretary
Bakers timely words. AS It stands
now. the great majority of Eastern col.
leges will keep football alive and kick.
Ing. In the West. where football was
to be continued, the sport faces II thirty.
Ing season. despite depletion In the
ranks Of the players, caused by enlist.
ment and the sclective draft.

PE0NY AND ITS CULTURE.
BY e. VAN sENTHUYsEN.

Among all our l~crbacCous plants.
there is probably not one that stai'1S
hi-hrr in popular favor than the
rcony. And 1t richly deserves its pop
ularity, because of It's great hardness,
It's ease of culture, its magnificent
range of rich and delicate Culors. It's
wonderful profusion of bloom and It's
tenacity of life.
The writer knows many specimens
Of the old variety, cultivated by our
gruntlmothcrS, extensively, that have
been growing In the saiue place In the
old gardens for more than n century,
and, without exception, those that
Received good care are rs vigorous ana
healthy today as any young plants,
and year after year they give u glO-
rlou> crop of fine flowers.
Many Of these Old plants have grown
to be cluulps five and six feet across,
and II can often count hundreds of
blossoms and buds In various stages of
development on each plant.
Such plants rs these are what IL
needed to make the attractions of II

Probably. however, it Is most strik-
ingly effective when planted In large

That aim In view.
If partially shaded, all the better.
The culture OF the poony Is simple

T. done you cannot expect n vigorous
growth of stalks and foliage, or gen
arous crops of large, richly color"d
flowers.
II Is hardly possible to use too much
manure about It, If II Is old enough to
be black and crumbles easily under
the application of the hoe. II should
be dug into the soil about the roots
Of the plants, taking care, however.
not To dig too close or deep enough
