STORY or TWO BUNS

A horse and mouse
Became quite chums.
With desire so great
To become buns
The next morning
They caught a freight,
Arrived In New York
A quarter till eight
The curfed rang
At the regular time,
But they couldn't find beds
With only a dime
A policeman grabbed
The horse by the tail,
And threw them both
In the city jail
One big room
Was their cell,
And Mousy said:
Amt that swell?"
The mouse sneaked
Right thru the bars
And wasn't missed
For several hours
The horse agreed
Never to roam,
And now he's working
Around his home
That's the end
OF this funny case,
But thoughts a fable,
And never took place.

Colorado Aggies To
Form Team From New
Material This Year

Fort Collins, Colo, Oct. I'm spite
of the fact that the football team Of
the Colorado Aggies will not be COM
posed of old and seasoned players.
Coach Hughes is placing his hopes
for a favorable season in the fact that
most of the two dozen men who have
been given places on the squad this
year are of sufficient weight to justify
the belief hat what they may lack
in experience they will probably make
up in beef"
For a college team, the weights,
which range from l48-to' 184, are to
be considered as a bit above the aver
age, and with a sprightly session of
workouts within the coming weeks,
the height Of the grid season may
find the Aggies in q position which
will enable them to maintain a first
class defensive ever though they may
not have been formed into a highly
trained offensive organization.
Dotson, who tips the beam at 1874,
! has had one years college work and
is consequently numbered among the
most capable members Of the organi-
| cation. He is at home in the position
Of tackle. Scott and Nye, 100 and 1872,
respectively, can be counted upon to
take care Of halfback and details.
Other members Of the team who have
had college experience are Worthing-
ton and Mitchell, while a number OF
the men have one or more games tc
their credit while members of the
students army training corps.

It all happened in the first game
and needless to say the Wilde bowl

we'll. Baker and Parish, two OF
wilde's team mates took his play in
the right spirit and they also wreck
ed the 200 mark, Parish making a
gain Of SO pins in the second game
trying to reach the captain. Wilde's
bowlers now head the league. They
rolled up 255 more pins than did
their opponents in the set.

A DISCOVERY THAT .
BENEFITS MANKIND

Two discoveries have added greatly

cane sugar to a sena;-liquid form.
In 1855 Horlick at Racine, Wis, dis
covered how to reduce milk to a dry
poudcr form with extract of matted
grains, aithoa cane sugar.
This product H0RlEck named
Matted Milk. (Name since copied
by others.) Its nutritive value,
digestibility and eas of preparation
(by simply stirring in water) and the
fact that it keeps in any climate,
has proved of much value to mankind
as an ideal foo6-drink from infancy
to old age.

Psychology and the War,

Prof. G. Stanley Hall of the Clark
university, United States, places the
subject Of applied psychology on a
high plane in relation to the war. He
states:
whatever system has been en-
ployed, it is evident that applied
psychology has produced results in
this war which it was never possible
to attain before. Men have endured
more, they have shown more heroism
and daring and have submitted to
more punishment than in any pre-
vious war. No such slaughter would
have been possible in former wars
without provoking panic. This has
unquestionably been due to the sys-
tenn of psychological selection, not
only for the various grades of service
but for special activities within each
grade. Our country may as well think
of going to war without irst-class mill
itary equipment as without knowl-
edge of applied psychology. The coun-
Gil of national defense seems to have
recognized this; and the National Re
search council within that body will, I
understand, contain representative
psychologists

BREAD AS ECONOMICAL FOOD
Would Re"Used More Extensively II
Home-Baked Variety Was Always
Good, Say Government Experts.

If home-baked bread were uniformly
well made, it would be used more ex-
tensively than at present in place of
more expensive foods, say specialists
in the United States department of
agriculture, and this would be dis
tinct economy. From the standpoint
of nutrition it makes very little differ
ence whether breadstuffs are served in
the form of bread or in the form of
breakfast cereals, side dishes with
meat, or desserts.
A man engaged in moderate muscu-
lar work can protitably consume about
three-fourths of pound a day of
breadstuffs in any one of these forms.
This quantity is the equivalent of one
n oH of baked bread. AS matter
Of fact, however, it is not probable
that in the average family this guam
tity is consumed and the deficiency is
made up by the use CT more expensive
substances. OF course bread alone is
not sufficient for the maintenance of
health, but from both an economical
and hygienic point of view should be
used more extensively than it usually
is, declare the experts.

NEW METALS BEING SOUGHT

The advice of the bureau CT standards

1t appears that the metals tradition

articles are in many cases no better
adapted for the purpose than others,
and slight difference in price would
warrant a substitution. It is not usu-
