MEMORY STREET

Along the street OF Memory
The little footsteps com. and 20
That wandered far away from me
SO long ago.
The ringing voices can hear;
feel again a happy thnll,
Although the world, for many year
Has seemed so still.
Beaide the street of Memory
Where swings the old and broken gate,
Beneath the Arching maple tree,
stand and wait.
The street fesounds with joyful noise,
There comes fluttering rush-and then,
The laughing girls, the shouting boys
Are home again.
Along the street OF Memory
| see the sunlight's golden glow
Ard happier days come back to me
The days that vanished long ago.
The DAYS of faptuIous delight
OF fairy grots and eliin isles,
when life was beautiful and bright
With chldrens smiles.
| wait there, as the sun sinks low
Beside the street OF Memory
Where little feet tripped to and fro,
And-all too soon-away from me
And when the twilight CLEANS its last,
take my way, with silent tread
Along the roadway OF the past,
Where they have fled

When they went down to the dining

that"
you'd better go up to bed" she
said desolately, going on with her work
and her weeping.
He obeyed, and could still hear a
pathetic shifting from the dining room
as he went up the stairs.
"By George!'' he grunted, as he
reached his own room and his thought
was that living with a person so sensi-
tive to kindly raillery might prove
lugubrious. He went to the window
and looked through the darkness to
the great silhouette of his GRANDPA.
theirs house. Lights were burning over
there, upstairs; probably his newly
arrived uncle was engaged in talk with
the Major.
Georges glance lowered, resting cas-
ually upon the indistinct ground, and
he beheld some vague shapes, unfa-
miliar to him. Formless heaps, they
seemed; but, without much curiosity,
he supposed that sewer connections or
water pipes might be out of order,
making necessary some excavations.
Not greatly disturbed, he pulled down
the shade, yawned, and began to un-
dress, leaving further Investigation for
the morning
But in the morning he had forgotten
all about it, and raised his shade, to
let in the light, without even glancing
toward the ground. Not until he had
finished dressing did he look forth
from his window, and then his glance
was casual. The next instant his at
titude became electric, and he ran
from his room, plunged down the
stairs out Of the front door, and, upon
nearer view of the destroyed lawn,
began to release profanity upon the
breeZeless summer air, which remained
unaffected. Between his mothers
house and his grandfather's, excava-
lions for the cellars of five new
houses were in process, each within a
few feet Of it's neighbor.

implicated in these defacings were de-

and regarded him contemplatively.

TWO CR|PPLES ON
= PENN STATE TEAM
Rauch and Haines Unable to
Start Game Against Cor
nell Saturday
LEAVE FOR ITHACA TONIGHT

State College. Pa. Nov. 13-Thc
Penn State football eleven leaves here
tonight for Ithaca, where they will
meet Cornell on Saturday. and in spite
of the two recent victories over Penn
and Iehigh, the coaches and players are
none too confident of the coming
struggle.
Injuries have slowed up the Blue and
White aggregation to some extent. while
it is felt here that Cornell is lust be
ginning to hit its stride, as was evr-
denced by its easy win over Carnegie
Tech.
The Penn State team will enter the
game minus the services of at least
two of its best players. Rauch. the
star guard. has not recovered the use
of his injured ankle. and IIaincs. who
has been putting up a great game, at
halfback, was knocked out on the first
kickoff in the Lchigh game and had to
be carried from the field.
Charlie Way. the sensational half
back, seems to have recovered from his
injured shoulder and he should be in
shape to start the game. Robb un
doubtedly will run the team from the
QUARTERBACK position, as he has been
playing a whirlwind game of late.
The game Saturday with Cornell will
be the first meeting on the gridiron
since 1912, although Il game scheduled
for last year was cancelled because of
the "hu.' In 1912 and 1911, Bill Hol %
lenback's unbeateu team took the meas
ure of the lthacans. and Coach Bezdel
is hoping to score another victory this
year. However. Penn State will be
considerably outweighed by the big red
team.
The Penn State Freshmen will accom-
pany the varsity on the trip and will
meet the Cornell cubs Just previous to
the varsity game
