came forward.
The papers-"Stressing the great
Commission by Rev. B. R. Gay, Re
ligion and the League of Nations"
by j. w. Price, and The Church and
the World" by j. Logan Craw, were
far more than high sounding words
put together for the delight Of the
ear; there was thought for the mind
and food for he soul, so much so that
they were given to the press for pub
LEGATION. Brother George NJ. Warner

WATERING FARM HORSES.

Walter Moore, a well known writer,
says:
1T is a common thing for farmers
work their horses in the bayfield,
from morning to night, watering them
only at noon. This is done even on
days of excessive heat. The driver
usually has two or more refreshing
drinks in the middle Of the morning,
and again in the afternoon; but the
horses, who are euqally as thirsty,
go without. This want Of water is
not only distressing, but it causes the
horses to drink to excess at noon and
again at night, which often results in
collie, and always tends to produce a
~distended stomach, or what farmers
call a hay belly Farmers who
would treat their horses humanely
should take water into the field for
them in hot weather

HARVARD MAY ELECT CASEY TO

Cambridge, Mass, Oct S-Because his players were somewhat tender af- ter their hard play of the last two. days, Bob Fisher did not scrimmage his Harvard football team as planned 4 heavy rain made the held slippery, and rather than take any more chances the head coach decided to call off all hard work prior to the Boston college game
 The session in the stadium was a long one, however II looks now as if Weatherhead, right end, and Kane and HubbarG, tackles, will not be in the lineup Saturday, Both Kane and Weatherhead have bad legs Yes terday Desmond was at right end and Sedgw1ck a right tackle Hubbard d is not tn shape, either, and McCagg, who stands nearly six feet, four in ches, will start at left tackle

YALE POLICY IN ATHLETICS
 IS OUTLINED

New Haven. Conn, Oct 3.---Ofi- saIIy fOF the first time since taking c4arge of athletics at YaIes Dr. Albert H. Sharpe made public a. specific statement Of his plans for general l -hIet&cs at Yale. saying in the Alumni Weekly:
 With all our concentration on or Sanized teams we. do not intend to forget the individual, but just how the problem 1vff be worked out for the best interests Of the Yale undergrad tate will depend upon the results Ob- taifled after we have made q general survey of the whole undergraduate body and classified our men. Of course every man now is taken care of by medical and physical exandna- Tions and work prescribed for his in- dividEuaI needs.
 Tt seems imperative that We have added to eour staff man for general mans participation the work should be made compulsory.
 My feeling however, is that such work more properly lies in the realm Of the secondary schools, and that when 8 man comes to college the work along such lines should be of an cleo tive nature, but that every student should spend some time in outdoor sports.
 T believe that our organized sports Can and should take care of al the |. lndergfadu who want daily ex- fr-ise, and that our problem is to ed ucate the others who are healthy and strong to appreciate that fact. We have variety enough to satisfy all de- ulands. 5

RUETHER WAS
 BAD ACTOR IN
 FORMER YEARS

New York. Oct. 3-Not since Hank Gowdy rode across the world series horizon and baked the Athletics with his war club, has a man gain ed such fame in the classic as did | Walter Ruether Wednesday, Rueth l CTS rise is somewhat similar to that i of Gowdy's too. inasmuch as the two had early careers that were disap- pointing before finally basktng in the limelight.
 It will be remembered that Cow dy travelled around the country as bat boy and utility player before he lodged with the Braves as a catcher. He was tried out by John McGraw and turned adrift as impossible, Even when he started with the Braves he was not looked upon as a world beater, but in the title year of 1914 Gowdy hit 8 stride that allowed no interference and he kept up the pace through the four-game struggle with the Athletics, In these games the home runs and timely doubles by Gowdy did as much to break the back of the Athletics as did the pitching of Rudolph, James and Tyler,
 Until this year Ruether has been what is termed as a, bad actor. He
 
 and he failed to keep in condition, His lack of mental balance cost him a job with the Cubs and 1t almost tied can to him last spring when Moran asked for waivers on the pitcher, only to be denied by the P1- rates. Moran finally convinced Ruether that 1t was better to do Q little hard work and get money for 1t
 than to always rub up against the line of least resistance. Ruether | took Moran's advice and he profited a n,illion-to1d yesterday.
 There have been pitchers who have i earned all the glory of & series and 1 batters have hogged the laurel
 wreathes, but Ruether Is the first ! performer who has taken full com mand in every department Not only i did he turn in one of the classics of 1 series history in so far as pitching is l concerned, but he was the most pow i erful factor in the Reds attack, He 1 contributed two triples, a single and l a pass in his four trips to the plate i for a batting average of 1000, and ! each of his hits aided materially in i bling up the one-s1ded total that de- | cided the game
 Few fans believed that Ruether would be able to hold in check the l White Sox sluggers. It was the opfn- | ion that a much more experienced 1 finger would have to take the reins- However Ruether combined confi- l dence with nerve, and he stood the i Chicago rivals on their respective heads The victory of Ruether must 1 put She Reds in a most confident | mood It leaves them with Slim Salee, Hod Eller, Jimmy Ring and i Ray Fisher still to be called upon, and each in possession of effective 1 shoots.

CHANGE MAY BE NEXT LEADER OF
 CHICAGO CUBS

Cincinnati Oct 3-It is stated in baseball circles that Fred Mitchell will not be retained as manager of 1he Chicago Cubs next year Mitchell turned out 2, pennant winner last sea son, but the failure of the Cubs to re peat during the recent campaign has made the owners of the club decide to engage some one else
 William Veeck- a former Chicago newspa per man, who is president of the Cubs, has assumed a mysterious air and will not discuss the report that Mitchell is to go but the insiders, who generally know what they are talking about say that not only will Mitchell withdraw but also there will be a surprise for the fans in the en- gagement of Frank Leroy Chance to succeed Mitchell as the leader of the Chicago team

he had a book of songs or Just that collected early Irish music. After much disappointment, I obtained a copy of Edward Bunting, another en- thusiast in Irish folk music, from whom I understand Dr. Petrie took many of his songs, I found two yer itable storeh ouses o; exquisite music of old Ireland. I have been through them all They are beautiful and I made a selection of those which considered to be the gems.
 The first of these is Farewell, My Gentle Harp" This song was first put Into written form in 1850. Another beautiful old melody is cail- cd "A Golden Cradle Holds Thee'' Who composed 1t and when. nobody knows.

As soon as her last Australian tour was decided upon, Madame De Cts- neros commenced her search for Irish music. She knew that Ireland once possessed a race of trouba dours- wandering bards, who in Gaelic sang the legends of the country to the music of the Harp. Irelands national emblem. "In America" said the great mezzo soprano, describing her search. "One can get the most up-to- date information about everything set to work to hunt New York city for some of these old harper's melodies.
