WHAT IS TREASON?

A correspondent wants to know whether l, is treason to talk against the United States" He says that in an argument it was claimed that treason consisted of making war against this country. He should read the Iconstitution and learn at first hand what treason is, but since he has not done so we lgladly give him the information.
 Section three of article three of the con stitution says: "Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them or in adhering to their enc mics, giving them aid and comfort" The language seems plain enough.
 Everyone understands what levying war means. It is making war or engaging in war, or taking such action as is a part of war, such as preparations for war. "Adher- ling to the enemy" denotes mental attitude. One adheres to the church by believing in the thurch and identifying himself with the church membership. If one believes in Ger many at this time by way of illustration, and associates with those who believe in Ger many, and takes part in contentious favorine
 iermany, he is certainly guilty of treason

Fred Murphy, one-time Yale foot ball star, who now is coach at North western. is unalterably opposed to the proposition to let down the bars to freshmen on varsity teams. Mur- phy holds that even with the war going on there are some coaches who would go to extremes to recruit school boy stars in order to strength en their varsity teams.
 Murphys argument is clear and to the point and handles the question from the proper angle He says:
 The freshman rule has proven it self one of the best rules ever put on he books, doing away with great many evils that were running athletics into disrepute. Let down the bars and the coach who does not tour the country proselyting high school athletes is going to be left completely in the lurch when the season opens.
 Now, supposing we do go through the coming season under the present rule, and granting that there will be a dearth of old stars, it means that this season only will be sub calibre, for it Is certain that if there are not many good men available, then surely there will be only a small loss by graduation next June. With the incoming freshmen avail able year hence We will then be

CHEERING SOMEONE ON

Don't you mind about the triumphs, Don't you worry after fame; Don't you grieve about succeeding, Let the future guard your name. All the best in lifes the simplest, Love will last when wealth is gone; Just be glad that you are living, And keep cheering someone on. Let your neighbors have the bios
 sons,
 Let your comrades wear the crown; Never mind the little setbacks Nor the blows that knock you down. You'll be here when they're forgot
 ten,
 You'll be glad with youth and dawn, If you just forget your troubles And keep cheering someone on. There's a lot of sorrow round you. Lots of lonesomeness and tears; Lots of heartaches and of worry Through the shadows of the years. And the world needs more than tri-
 umphs,
 More than all the swords we've
 drawn;
  It is hungering for the fellow Who keeps cheering others on. Let the wind around you whistle, And the storms around you play; You'll be here with brawn and gris-
 tie
 When the conqueOrs decay. Youll be here in memories sweet
 ened
 If some souls you've saved from
 pawn, If you put aside the victories And keep cheering someone on.

 He took me up ten flights of stair and showed me all the works up there and said "This is the lager here-it's time to have an other beer" And then he led me to and fro and every place that we did go, he said "Just pause moment here-until we have another beer.'
 We went, at length, beneath the ground, where great big casks stood all around, each packed with great big cakes of ice. I said "This place is pretty nice. 1 do not mind the cold bit; in fact, l think that 1 could sit on guard here thirty hours day and somehow while the time away"
