Various Ways to Drink Coffee.

On the East side Of New York
there are eating places, or coffee
houses, as they are known, for all ma
tlonalities. Each has a different GUS
tom for serving and drinking coffee.
Take, for instance, the Arab; when he
sips his beverage he makes the same
noise as man with hirsute append
age does when he is wadlng through
a plate of soup. And what's more,
declare the men of the desert, those
who do not make a noise like a drown
Ing man. when slipping coffee, which
they regard as a luxury, are abso-
lutely ill-bred. The most popular dish
served by the Arabs is called pilaf.
1t is made Of olive oil and few nut
kernels mixed with rice. When one
tackles a mess Of pilaf the sensation
Is the same as one experiences when
going from soup to nuts In a 'red-ink"
emporium. only pilaf is not quite so
filling.

NEW WAYS TO USE VAPoRU1.

POST.

This advertisement Is written on
Monday, October 21st. 1t is directed to
the attention Of all distributors OF
VIck's VapoRub, both wholesale and
retail. In an emergency such as the
present epidemic-our duty-and your
iuty-is to distribute VapoRub In the
quickest possible manner to those Sec
lions stricken by Influenza. We, there
fore, call your careful attention to the
following:
DANGER OF SHORTAGE IF SUP.
PLY is NOT CONSERVED
On October LIST we had on hant, ut
eur Factory and in twenty warehouses
scattered over the country, sufficient
Vap0Rub to last us, we thought, until
January LIST, allowing for 80 per cent
increase over last years sales and not
counting our daily output. This big
excess stock had been accumulated
during the summer months.
Then this epidemic of Spanish In
fiuenza hit us--and In the last ten days
this stock has vanished. At first we
thought this tremendous demand
would last only a few days, but the
orders have run:
Wed, Oct. 10. 49,. .1S,504 doz.
Thur, Oct. IT. .25.323 doz.
Fri, Oct, 49,. 49,. .39,256 doz.
Sat-, Oct. 49,. 80. 1888 doz.
Mon, Oct. 81. -. .77,705 doz.
Up to Saturday, October 10Th, we
have actually shipped for this month
$400,2S4.10, or over two million Jars
.Sf VapoRub.
THE PROBLEM NOW IS TO DIS
TRIBUTE VAPoRu8 QUICKLY.
Most of this tremendous quantity is
stfll en- route to the jobbers, but
freight and express are both con-
gested nowadays, and II may be some
time before this supply reaches the
jCbbers. In the meantime, therefore,
Il is necessary that we distribute, as
widely as possible, the stock that we
ere manufacturing daily, together with
that now on the jobbers' and retailers
shelves, in order that 1t may get to
the Influenza districts quickly. Our
nUEmal output is about 1900 dozen
per day. We are putting on night

fore that is producing.

JUMP SHIFT IS
GEORGIA'SBEST
Coach John Heisman, Of
Famous Tech Eleven,
Explains Play.

Few football formations intro
duced in the last dozen years have
caused greater discussion than the
"Heisman Jump Shift" which has
been worked with such remarkable
results by the Georgia Tech elevens
of 1915, 1916, 1917 and 1918.
But there is nothing complicated
about it," insists John w. Heisman.
the originator. who has been coach
ing Georgia Tech elevens for nearly
fifteen years.
Explaining the play. Heisman
said:
When the shift is put into effect
every man except the'center is back
of the scrimmage line. The dis
tance that the guards, tackles. ends
and backfield men are removed from
the line sometimes depends upon
what kind of play the boys are
about to make. The whole idea OF
pulling ten men of the team back
of the line is to give to the team
concert action and a preponderating
force when it is driving against the
enemy line.
I'm 1910 il occurred to me that
nothing much was gained by asking
my tackles and guards. standing
shoulder to shoulder with the enc
my linesmen. to batter down those
men. 1t was a task almost impos-
sible because. to get ramming power
into drive, a certain momentum is
necessary. And that momentum is
gained only by a run.
so I pulled my guards and tackles
back to form a first line of inter
ference. The halfbacks and end
4.
the ball is passed. the two lines of
interference move forward with all
possible speed and when, in a con-
certed formation, it hits a strag-
Cling enemy line the inevitable hap
pens. The enemy is knocked down
In cases where an end run. a fake
kick. a forward pass or some trick
play is to be engineered. the dou-
BILE line of interference serves as
an effectual mask.
The beauty of that formation is
that every conceivable play can be
made from it. Georgia Tech makes
practically all its plays from that
formation-line bucks, end runs.
criss-cross passes and forward
passes. Just how successful the
Jump Shift" has been when using
the aerial attack is shown by the
fact that rs per cent. of all Geor-
gia Techs forward passes during
the past four years have been COM
pleted.
TT takes tremendous patience and
painstaking effort to drill players
into executing the jump shift with
smoothness and speed. But gener-
ally my boys have succeeded in per-
fecting it by the middle of October
after which time it invariably
causes a heap of trouble for the op-
position teams. Georgia Tech has
been using that play for eight years
and we never yet have encoun-
tered a team that has been able to
devise a consistent defense against
it. That apparently shows its
worth"

ALL READY FOR
TENNIS MATCH
Norwegian Star and Bos-
tonian Due Today; Bene-
fit Listed Tomorrow.

Arrangements are practically COM
pleted for the big benefit tennis
matches to be played on the Dunn
barton courts tomorrow afternoon
Miss Molla Bjurstedt, the Norwegian
star, who has not only adopted this
country as her home but has also
captured all of the women's titles
worth having, is due to arrive from
New York this morning, while Miss
Marion Zinderstein, the young Bos-
tonian, Is also due later in the day.
While 1t is quite likely that the two
visitors will practice up by playing
some informal matches on the courts
of the various other clubs, both this
afternoon and tomorrow morning.
these will be more in the nature of
entertaining features for 'the stars
themselves in order that they may
visit the different local clubs.
The main matches will be held to-
morrow afternoon, starting at about
o'clock. No admission will be
charged. but a collection will be
taken, the funds thus raised to be
turned over to the National Tennis
Women's Relief Association, under
whose auspices the matches have
been arranged. This association was
organized for the purpose of educat-
ing and teaching trades to wounded
and blind soldiers that they may be-
come self-supporting.
A better cause could not be found
and it is the hope of the officials of
DumbaTton that tennis enthusiasts
will take advantage of this oppor-
tunity OF seeing some stellar tennis
and at the same time boosting a good
cause. Plans for a large gallery have
been made and it Is hoped that local
followers of the net game will re-
spond literally.

VIRGINIA ENGINEERS
TO BATTLE MEDICOS

The 217th Engineers stationed at
Camp Humphreys, Va, will open the
gridiron season today against the
Army Medical School of this city.
Because of the flu ban on outdoor
gatherings in the District the game
will be played on the new athletic
field of the Alexandria Ship Yard at
Alexandria, Va.
Lieut.. Sodgrum, athletic officer of
Camp Humphreys, closed out ar
rangements yesterday for the use of
the Alexandria field with general
manager Yost of the shipbuilding
company. Not much is known of
the strength of the 217th but Lieut..
Cox's Medicos are strong enough to
make all service teams in this vi
cinity hustle for laurels.
The followers of both clubs pre-
dict a corking battle Since last
Wednesdays game with Gallaudet
College the Medicos have added to
their line up two well known grid
ironers-Bus Hager and Tommy
Degnan. This pair may be forced
to stand the brunt of the burden
today.
