During the evening locaNattacks

1T is now established that in the

Of the day enabled our troops to OBJ
tain warning of impending attacks,
and in every case the advancing lines
of German infantry were destroyed by
the concentrated fire from our rifles,
machine guns and artillery"

The British penetration has reached
the depth Of a mile, (which, consid-

Twin Oak and Pine.

There is In Stevens Point, Wis, q
pine tree and an oak tree growing
from the same stump. Both are 10
feet or more In height. Apparently
the trees are branches growing from
a common root and one of the pecul-
iarities OF the combination is that the
bark of the pine does not appear
normal. It appears to have been i'm
pregnated with some Of the qualities

Experience the Best Teacher.

It is generally admitted that exper-
fence is the best teacher, but should we not
make use of the experience of others as we'll as
our own? The experience of a thousand persons
is more to be depended upon than that of one
individual. Many thousands of persons have
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for coughs
and colds with the best results, which shows it
to be thoroughly reliable preparation for
those diseases. Try it. 1t is prompt and effect

BY n. c. BYRD.

Pentathlon competition in the Penn
sylvania relay games today is said to
have the possibilities of a brilliance
never previously attained. The best
all-round athletes in the collegiate
world are entered to test their capa-
biiities against Howard Berry, the
Quaker star. Berry has been victori-
Gus in the event for two consecutive
seasons. but IT is said that he is in
more serious danger OF dethronement
than in either of the meets in which
he won.
Representatives of Dartmouth, Col
gate. Wisconsin. Missouri. Swarthmore.
Chicago. Syracuse. Penn State and
Bucknell are slated to test their powers
In all-round work against the star of
1915 and 1915 Clio of Dartmouth.
Thomson of Dartmouth and Burke of
Wisconsin are said to be Berry's most
dangerous opponents
The collegiate championship sprint.
medley relay and medley distance races
are to be run this afternoon. Besides
these. the 44o-yard hurdle event, in
which Simpson. the great Missouri ath-
1ete. will be pitted against Hobbs and
Thomson of Dartmouth. and three field
events will constitute the program for
today. The field competitions are
throwing the -six-pound weight,
the running hop. step and jump and
throwing the hammer.
Tomorrow is the big day of the meet.
The championship relay races at one
mile, two miles and four miles are to
take place, as will the relays in the va
dash and 120-yard hurdles, which
amount almost to intercollegiate cham
pionships, will be held in conjunction
with the big title relay events. Besides
these there are many high school and
competitions scheduled. With the great
number of entries it is likely that the
day will be one of the greatest in the
history of track and field competition.
While 1t is true that Harvard, Prince
ton, Yale and Cornell are not entered
as teams many of their star performers
are listed TO take part in the races for
individuals.
From this immediate section only one
college and two schools will be repre-
sented in the Penn games. Maryland
State is sending Brewer to take part in
the 100-yard dash and a relay team to
compete against several other colleges
in its class; Central High is to be rep
resented by two teams, one in the high
school championship event and the other
In class l; Technical High has a four
competing in class >. All three of the
institutions mentioned stand fair
chance to win. The Maryland State men
are not in very good shape, but, with
the exception of Brewer, in the 10O-yard
DASH they are not against very fast
teams.
Central and Eastern play today in the
high school base ball series. The con-
test is to take place at American League
Park and will begin at $3.50 o'clock. The
Mount Pleasant nine probably will use
the same lineup it started against Tech
earlier in the week, while few, If any,
changes in Eastern's team are probable.
