one chance to score, and it came late in
the afternoon Church, who had played
brilliantly, fumbled the ball on Har-
Yards 35-yard limo, and Russell got it
TOR Virginia. Then II. Rinehart throw

plotted, and finally Seward broke loose
to carry tho ball to Harvard's 17-yard
line.
From here slight advance WAS
made. but tho Harvard line finally held

Ann Arbor Eleven
Unable to Repulse
Ohio State Attack

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Oct. 25.--Out-
played in practically every department
Of the game, Michigan went down to
defeat before Ohio State, 10 to 3, this
afternoon for the first time in fifteen
years. The defeat, it is generally con-
coded eliminates Michigan as con-
tender for the Western Conference
football championship.
The work of Captain Harley, Quar-
terback Stinchcomb and Flowers, the
visitors right end man, stood out as
the feature of the game. Several times
Harley tore through the Michigan line
for good games; in the third period
he circled the Michigan right end for
thirty-five yards and touchdown, and
on the few occasions that Michigan
threatened his goal he punted out of
danger.
Michigan's only score was the result
of a pretty drop kick by Sparks in the
second period. Standing on Ohios
thirty-fve yard line he sent the ball
squarely through the visitors goal
posts.

SUCCESSFUL TRACK
SEASON CLOSES

Middlebury College closed the largest
and in many ways the most successful
track season in her history on May 80,
with a defeat at the hands OF Massa-
chusetts Agricultural College, by the
close margin OF one point, the score
being SO to IS.
The entire season was marked by
close victories, and the outcome in
every meet was in doubt until the finish
of the final event. The schedule
brought Middlebury against the fastest
teams that she has ever faced, and the
results clearly show that she was not
t-classed. Three college records were
set in the last two meets.
The season opened under the most
discouraging conditions. The late
spring made it impossible for the team
to get into any kind of shape by out
door work, and as MIDI has no indoor
track, the men were forced to do their
training in snow-stOrms and cold rains,
Due to the shortening of the college
year, both last year and in 1861, prac-
tically no track material had been un-
earthed during that period, so that
Coach Brown started the year under a
great disadvantage. Only two veterans
reported around which to build up a
team These were Captain Jones 10
and Tatro 49, Although the ability Of
Jones to place in the distance events
and of Tatro to secure points in the
shot, broad and high jumps had been
rrOveu in mast track meets tO Coach
Brown goes the entire credit Of solving
the problem of picking and coaching a
team that won victories

SAVING AND HAVING.
An Old Fable Applied to Present
Conditions.
Save and have!

OdV6 anu nave!
Remember the story of the ant and
grasshopper? The ant worked and
saved. The end of each day found
him with little more added to what
he had the day before The grass
hopper danced and sang and fiddled
his time away, Winter came; the ant
had plenty. The grasshopper had
nothing he had not saved. He went
to the ant and asked for help. Said
the ant: while l worked, you fooled
your time away. You can dance now
for all care"
Are you an ant-person or a grasshop-
per-person? Some time are you going
to have to ask for help and will some
one tell you to dance; or will you be
independent?
If you save now. you'll have later
on Let the end of every week find
more Thrift Stamps on your card. AT
the end of every month be able to
show more War Savings Stamps past
GU oA yOuI CcllllCdIe. Duy 1919 war
Savings Stamps. Lend your money
to the Government at four per cent
interest, compounded quarterly, and
see it grow
Take stock of yourself! What are
you worth? Will next New Years
day find you worth more or less :?
Which will you be; an ant or a grass
hopper?

Entered at the Middlebury, VT, Post
Office as Second Class Mail

The Public Library Board for Mid
dlebury in asking Miss Susan Archi-
bald to withdraw the resignation which
she submitted last week is properly
voicing the appreciation which the
whole community feels for her many
years devotion to library work here
Fortunately the board has requested
that Miss Archibald for the present
shall take only a leave of absence, with
the possibility that she may return to
her duties next year; Miss Damon, act
ing as librarian in the meantime, Even
this interruption in Miss Archibald's
service makes occasion for note that
for nearly twenty-five years she has
been serving the community in a way
which, considering the salary attached
to the post, has been very selfsacrific
ing. In fact up to eight years ago when
the present library arrangement was in
stituted, she had been purely volun-
teer-as librarian of the Ladies Library
