REMEMBER!

With more than half of the period
for canvassing for funds for the Unit
ed War Work campaign gone, Co
lumbia was, at last reports, $500
from her quota.
Why should such a thing be so?
Has the signing of the armistice be-
tween Germany and the Allied nations
dulled our thoughts of the boys across
the seas, away from home comforts
and friends?
There are more than two million
American boys in France, with all
probability of remaining there for
another year.
The members of the collegiate sec
ton of the S. A. T. c. of the Univer-
sity gave double their quota. Not a
member of a company gave less than
81 and the greater number gave $40
or more. Why did they do this? Be
cause in the last month they have
gotten just a slight, very slight, in
sight in the feelings and needs of the
boys who went to give their all that
we might exist in a luxurious world
while they wallowed in mud, were
burned by gas, eaten by vermin and
wounded by shells.
Those who were mere boys will re-
turn worldly wise, and men. They
will remember how We supported
them-or failed to.

Members of the S. A. T. c. like to
play practical jokes on one another.
A man at barracks will blow the bu-
gle at 9 O'Clock instead of 9:45. Many
an S. A. T. c. man who is keeping
a date will rush frantically back to
the barracks with visions of being
court-martialed, only to find that it
is a ruse

BOWLING

In some ways the most remarkable
ball club in the American League last
season was the Cleveland Indians.
There was a club which made up
with a fine lighting spirit what 10
lacked in mechanical ability and was
able to win many ball games in which
II was outplayed No club won so con-
sistenily from the Red Sox and White
Sox as the Indians.
u was a well balanced club and was
the more efficient because Of the har-
mony between the men themselves and
between them and the management
The Indians this year face the prob
lem Of filing a hole at first base, a
problem which Manager Lee Fohl
solved last year with Harris. Harris
has Joined the colors and the problem
remains.
one and perhaps two very good pitch
ers must be replaced. Third base must
be taken care Of satisfactorily.
The standing Of the Indians this year
depends a great deal upon whether Jim
Basby will join the club. Bagby has
been hOlding out and efforts TO get him
70 sign so far have been unsucces full.
The loss Of a twenty-five victory pitcher
Is a heavy blow to any club. II Bagby

As holdouts seldom hold out much
longer than the training camp season
and as members Of the Indians are con-
ildent Bagby will be in a uniform
within a short time the writer will as
sumo that Bagby will take his regular
place on the mound this year
In 1917 the Indians finished a good
third with the White Sox and Red Sox
out In front, This year the White Sox
appear to be the only club capable Of
leading them TO the wire
The pitching staff will be composed
OF Bagby. Coveleskie. Guy Morton,
Coumbe, Groom, Lambeth, two rockies,
Enzman and Wilkinson and possibly
Joe Wood.

Former Hospital Physician and Med ioal Examiner says that in three weeks it Virtually Revitalzed His Whole System.
 In a recent discourse on the sub ct of iron deficiency in the blood e American men and women Dr. H. B.

It is not surpris- ing that millions of people annually are now taking Nuxated Iron and phy- sicians everywhere are prescribing it. Dr. James Francis Sullivan, formerly Physician of Bellevue Hospital (Out- door Dept) New York, and the West chester Country Hospital, s2ys: For want of iron you may be an old nlan at thirty dull in intellect, poor in mem- ory, nervous, irritable and all run down, while at 50 or 60 with plenty of iron m your blood you may still be young in feeling, full of life, your whole being brimming over with energy and vital force"
