Three Floor Frays
In Front Of Mills
Warriors This Week

The coming week will see the
Creighton basket ball squad lined up
against three OF the fastest teams i'll
the west. Monday the team journeys
to University Place to meet Bill
Klein's Wesleyan squad, who went
down to defeat on the Creighton floor
early in the season. Coach Mills, how
ever, is expecting to encounter some
difficulty in downing the Coyotes on
their own floor, which is smaller than
the regulation court at the local gym
nasium. But the Blue and White
squad is going better than at any time
during the season and if it turns out
the brand of basket ball witnessed
at the recent Dubuque game, the
followers of the team have little doubt
about the outcome of the Wesleyan
battle.
Drake university, which gave
Creighton a trouncing at Des Molnes
last week, will be met on the locals
floor Wednesday night. Mills squad
was handicapped in the Des Moines
game on account of playing in the aft
ernoon and the lighting arrangement
bothered them considerably. The
Iowans, however, have a team that
ranks high in the Valley race and
have been displaying world OF
speed, but this will only make the
Creighton warriors fight harder, as is
evident from their past performances
The Townsend squad is also clam.
oring for a contest with Creighton
claiming that the Brandeis team re-
fused to meet them for the title. They
will be given chance against Mills
squad, although no definite date has
been set.

KICK OF THE MULE.
IL 10 Not Treachery, but Fear, That
Moves the Springs.

lt 10 Not Treachery, but Fear, That
Moves the Springs.
Handled tntelligently, mule is a
most willing worker, but there are q
few unwritten laws that cannot be
transgressed with impunity. A mule
will seldom make more than two at
tempts to move q load. On the first
strain he will throw his whole force
into the collar, and mule can pull 30
per cent more in proportion to his
weight than horse. Science is dumb
at the question whence comes that
latent force which neither horse nor
ass possesses.
After short rest the mule will make
second attempt, but this is seldom as
sustained as the first. If the load still
refuses to move, the team might as
well be unhitched. At times the mules
will not even exert enough force on a
third attempt to move an empty wagon.
Mules are charged with treachery
only by those who have never given
an intensive study to their habits.
Mules defend themselves from that
which they do not understand. They
become accustomed to being harnessed
and Embarrassed while colts, and it
is traditional that mule never kicks
while being saddled or harnessed. The
beast knows what that means.
But it is also traditional that mule
sleeps with one eye open. He is al.
ways alert to what is going on about
him. 1t Is never safe to stoop down
suddenly to pick something up behind
or at the side of mule. That Is to
him an unexplained action. He can
not fathom the intent back of 1t, and
he generally let's fly with one or both
heels by way of protest.
A person who has harnessed and I'M
harnessed mule for months may for
get himself and stoop for something
at the animals heels Then the mule,
docile for so many days, begins to kick.
When the luckless driver regains his
senses he imagines the mule had been
waiting craftily all those weeks just
to get good opportunity to kick him.

Letters from the People

Editor Courier-R Reporter:
Your editorial last week defending
the boys who are going to the front
has the approval of all our best citi-
zens. For all honor is due those boys,
whether they go as volunteers or UNI
der compulsion. They arc the stone
wall that is to stand between us and
danger. And the man to call one Of
those boys scabs or hirelings or any
other disreputable name as fling at
their soldier capacity, deserves to
occupy one of those half million lamp
posts, SO aptly referred to by Am
bassador Gerard.
And we should all get down on our
knees and thank the good Lord that in
our unprepared condition Germany did
not strike the United States first.

ENDLESS CHAIN LETTERS.
The One That Started the Ball Rolling
In This Country.

The first Of the endless chain"
schemes that have proved such an an
noyance to postal officials in all cOun-
tries was launched on June q, 1893,
by young girl, Natalie Schenck, of
Babylon, N. Y. Her project was pure
" benevolent and was animated by
a spirit of patriotism. Desiring to
raise fund for the aid of American
soldiers then fighting Spain, she orig
mated the endless chain idea as an
adaptation of a scheme that had a
vogue in England until it was stopped
by act of parliament.
The "chain" was started with four
letters written by Miss Schenck to as
many girl friends. Each was asked
to contribute 10 cents and write four
similar letters to other friends. A few
days later the Babylon postoffice be-
gan to get busy, and as the days went
by the postal officials got buster and
buster until they were fairly buried un-
der the weight of mail which descend.
ed upon them like an avalanche.
A hurry call went to Washington for
CALld Aclp, A1dh W do uCl1NClCu W
Miss Schenck by the truck load. Now
that young lady began to feel the eff
fects of the scheme. Her home was
Uttered from cellar to garnet with let
tiers, letters and more letters, all con-
tanning dimes. Before the thing died
out of it's own accord she had received
more than quarter of a million dimes.
Takers all over the world heard Of it.
and, as takers will, they Immediately
got busy. Hundreds Of thousands of
people were swindled out of money in
this manner until the postal authori-
ties put an end to it. The famous
endless chain prayer, which threatens
endless punishment to any person who
breaks it, has been one of the hardest
survivors of all.-New York World.

As the mask is being torn from
Germany's face, we now know beyond
a doubt that while presenting kiss
ing kindness toward this country she
was preparing to sink her dagger into
our very vitals, only waiting for the
more convenient season.
We have often speculated in the
past as to when and how the acid test
would be applied to the Monroe Doc
trine and without realizing it, we are
fighting that battle now, for the final
results in this war will determine that
question for centuries to come.
We can now see where the Man with
the Big Stick was eternally right when
he advocated preparedness in times of
peace, and the other man was eter-
nally wrong when he said swat till
the enemy is upon US then a million
men will spring to arms over night
to resist invasion" Recent events in
Belgium, France, Serbia, Poland, Ru-
mania, and Armenia prove that
million mushrooms will be just as
effective in stopping the advance of a
ood-thirsty army, as a million raw
recruits.
For heavens sake, let's not tranfer
the battlefields to American soil. And
the way to prevent that is to treat our
soldier boys right, for I know they will
size up to the very best men there are
in the field today.
In the last campaign opposed the
election of Mr.. Wilson, for I was
afraid he was too much of a pacifst
to stand up against foreign powers.
