players here received with cheers the
announcement that series Of games
with Harvard and Yale are assured
The placing OF these games on the
schedule will attach an interest and
Importance to the season that probably
would otherwise have been lacking
with all the undergraduates engaged
very actively in military training.
IL Is probable that the Tigers will

possibility of the team making Its
usual Southern trip seems rather re-

About thirty-nye battery candidates

Thus far the Princeton coaches have
experienced considerable difficulty in
conducting practices because of the
military work. The Princeton R. U.
T. c. Regiment is now divided into
two battalions. each battalion drilling

extensive practices with all candida Is

MESSENGERS of Death.

There are about 200 separate and
distinct kinds Of shells fired from Ger
man guns, and each and every one OF
them has been given at least one nick
name by the Tommies, according to
London Tit-Bits. Some of them have
been given several.
The biggest kind Of high explosive
shells, for instance, are known in
differently as "Dirty Dicks" Jack
Johnsons." "Coal Boxes" "Flower
Potts." "Crumps," "Black Peters" or
"Whistling Willies."
The smaller kind are "Black Ma
rias" and "Woolly Bears" according to
whether the smoke they emit when
bursting is black, or white with a yell
lowish tinge.
High explosive shrapnel and trench
mortar shells are respectively "whizz-
bangs" and "pip-squeaks," from their
habit of giving only those warnings Of
their approach. "Archibalds" are anti
aircraft shells. Ordinary shrapnel
proectiles are little Willies."

Long Prairie. Minn.-All you have
to know to catch frogs is how far
frog can jump-and just little bit
more. Dave Harpold and w. r. Smith
proved this when they marketed 49,
600 dozen pairs of frogs legs in 30
days.
First they captured the champion
jumping frog Of Maple lake and meas
ured his jumps for distance and alti-
tude. Then they dug trenches just
little wider and little deeper than
the champions best marks.
Then they sat down and waited till
the trench bottoms were covered with
frogs. Once in the frogs couldn't get
out.
But occasionally some new champi-
on came along and set better marks.
The men were in a quandary. To at
tempt to deepen or widen the trenches
would have been fatal to a large per-
centage of their frog population.
Then Harpold, who is literary per-
son, solved the problem. Having read
his Mark Twain thoroughly, he did the

treatment of the wounded is rhstt
under the management of Miss Kath-
leen Park of New York, at her cha
teau of Annel. There she has worked
almost since the very beginning of
the war. When the battle for the
fort Of Malmaison was in progress
the hospital dealt with considerable
number of wounded, who were first
bandaged on the battlefield and then
brought down the River Aisne ON
board a barge fitted UP as a floating
hospital.
Miss Park has working with her in
conjunction with the French military
surgeons q number of American ply
sicians, who all participated in the
handling of the French wounded dur
ing the battle of Malmaison. Also,
she has with her several American
trained nurses and helpers.
Among the doctors is George de
TarnovSky of Chicago.

Speed in collecting the wounded is
the greatest factor in bringing about

Athens, Ga.-Two hundred
and sixty-five students of the
University Of Georgia have pre-
sented a petition to the director
of their "beanery," the co-opera-

the menu be Hooverized in the
latest approved conservation

wheatless day each week, three

Incredible FeatS Performed Every
Day in Treating Soldiers
on Battlefield.
NINE-TENTHS PULL THROUGH
Percentage of Losses Among the
Wounded Striking Tribute to the
Skill of Surgeons--Speed
Important Factor.

French Front.-Almost incredible
feats have been and are being accom-
plished every day of the war by the
surgeons who treat soldiers wounded
on the battlefield. These remarkable
feats have increased in frequency, as
the stricken men are more quickly
gathered in by the ambulances and
brought to the field hospitals for surgi-
cal intervention.
AT the beginning of the war 1t was
not always possible to clear up bat
tlefield of the casualties in less than
three or four days, and on many occa-
Sions wounded men waited even long
er before their injuries could be han
died.
numbers of the wounded succumbed
from gangrene or blood poisoning, or
were rendered so feeble from loss Of
blood that they were unable to under
go operations that were vitality neces-
Sary. It was at that time regarded
as satisfactory result when 60 per
cent of the wounded brought into the
hospitals recovered eventually from
the injuries.
Nine Tenths Are Saved.
This percentage Of losses among
the wounded men would at present
be regarded with horror by the mill
tary surgeons, who now reckon with
perfect assurance on saving about
nine-tenths of the wounded men COM
ing under their treatment. During
the battle of Flanders the percentage
of recoveries among wounded men
brought to the hospitals amounted
to &c.
This striking figure was still fur
Their improved on the occasion of the
recent battle in which the French
wrested from the Germans the fort
Of Malmaison and caused them to
evacuate the Chemin des Danes after
throwing away hundreds of thou
sands Of the crown princes best
troops in the effort to retain it. The

Some local frog fanciers propose to
