- Her Problems

One of the most difficult prob
lens which confronted Zoe after her
marriage was concerning their
church fellowship. Her husband
had been raised in the Presbyterian
church although not member Of
any church organization. Zoe was
a Methodist. She was thoroughly
in accord with its teachings and it
had not occurred to her that her
husband might not accept all its
doctrines. She had no misgiyings,
and did not doubt that he would
unite with it. But she had been
disappointed. Although he dona-
ted literally to the support of the
church, and spared no pains in
making it possible for her to fulfill
all its requirements, he seldom went

1t is not enough to say that this
was subject of much concern to-
Zoe, for believing as she did in an
every day, helpful religion she
longed for its fullest influence in
their home.

OUR OWN DESTITUTE

During the war, the American
people gave unsparingly and cheer
fully Of their time, labor and mon
ey for the people Of stricken Europe.
Drive after drive was successfully |
carried through. Charitable insti-
buttons here at home suffered to a |
vast extent in consequence. How
much they suffered is being made
the subject of comment by many
great writer's and thinkers, who
urge that American institutions bel
given an inning now. During the
war, money, went abroad, prices at
home increased to unheard Of
heights, and calls from the needy
increased by over 80 percent. Our
own institutions were harrassed and
handicapped and burdened with
debt. The Christian Home Or
phanage at Council Bluffs, Iowa,
which has daily average of ESQ
inmates to provide for, is undertake
ing Thanksgiving drive to enable
it to continue it's great work for,
orphaned and destitute children. If

send a Thanksgiving offering to
this worthy Orphanage.

Franklin Field Too Small
for Tarsity Teams and
Sports for AL Theory.
Hasn't a Chance
A M4NY.RTNCED CIRCUS
BY EDWIN J. POLLOCK

MEN of athletic affairs who sup
AV1 ported with words the theory of
sports for all in our colleges should
visit Franklin Field on one OF these
premature spring days and realize how
impractical 1t Is as applied to Pennsyl-
vania under the present conditions.
The sports for all idea is an ideal
toward which every college is reaching,
but the efforts OF the idealists should be
diverted into more practical channels.
Before any move is made toward uni
yersal athletics there must be steps
taken to accommodate the participation.
Years ago Pennsylvania with its var
sity teams alone outgrew Franklin flelo'
The overflow crowd moved TO Museum
Field an open space with defects too
numerous TO mention. Tennis courts
have been laid out on various lots abput
the campus and virtually every avail
able bit of ground serves its purpose IN
Red and Blue athletics. Still more room
is needed.
Like Circus Rings
A glimpse of Franklin Field these days
conyinces one that in the spring young
mans fancy turns to thoughts OF sport.
The Penn playground look like a many
ringed circus.
In one corner of the lot Roy Thomas
instructs a group of varsity hurlers and
catchers. Far away from the upper
clasmen. And Swigler gives helptui

The lacrosse candidates spread all over
the field and Coach Goldsmith holds

teaching his men new points OF the old
game. Johnny Bartels and few others
take turns at heaving the JaNelln. anu

But there is more 10 come. When all
the freshman and varsity baseball candi-
dates are called out, another hundred
students will be added to the field that
already is overcrowded. Penn. however,
has survived in the past and can sur
vive the future, but the sports-for7all
idea is utterly out of the question until
more territory can be annexed.
The slogan for the sports-for-all
idealists should be More Room and
More Sports"
