witch police department are and in
curing about the operation OF the
green light police signal system.
The officer fixed the time at which
he received the order to go TO the Len
uen house by saying that he had pass
ed the corner Of Bath aud Franklin
streets and had noticed the town clock
was S,55. Then he went on q short
ways beyond the Thayer building,
turned around and crossed over to
Young's corner and was talking to
Officer O'Neiu when he saw the green
signal light on the pole at this corner.
He meptione4 that a woman came
along and asked him a question. At
torney Brown at once showed conSid-
cradle interest in who this woman was.
The policeman said he could not tell
| her name but she was a Norwich Wo-
man and lived on Franklin street near
| the fish market on that street and
| worked in a hotel. He did not know
| her name.
Major Hull objected to this line OF
| questioning and the court sustained
| his objection.
The witness could not say in what or
der he and Officer Murphy and Mr.. Be-
! land went into the back door upon
arriving at the Lennen house. The
first thing the policeman did was to
talk to Captain Lennen and then look
ed the place over. AT that tina he
did not go into the parlor, sitting room
Or bedrooms. He didn't go into any
of these rooms until after Holmes had
left. Mr.. Whitney was the first man
to come after the officer arrived, prob
ably about 5 or 10 minutes later. Dr..
Cassidy came shortly afterwards The
officer thought it was about Is min

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay gray! Here's simple
recipe that anybody can apply
with a hair brush

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its nat
ural color dates back to grandmother S
time. She used it 70 keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hail took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance,
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is nussy ard
out of date. Nowadays. by asking at
any drug store for bottle OF
"Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, which can be
depended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-knoWn downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair SO naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen d
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.

With All Trimmings.

Recurring Training Table.

Every once in while along comes
q letter and again the old, old question
of the training table is opened. There
are quite as many pros as. there are
cons, and there is rarely. If ever. adj
!vanced any theories that are especial
Iy new or that shed any light on the
topic. Here, however, is letter which
just received from reader, which
/ am offering to the public, in that 1t
gives the views of man who has
undertaken exhaustihg athletics under
both conditions. Besides that, there is
a certain freshness about the letter
coming from man whose experi-
ences are recent enough to be of in
terest:
Dear Mr.. Camp:
Noted in one Of your 'colyums' a
little piece about the stabilizing of
the training tables. and some little
discussion about the expense involved,
and as to whether they, are, really a
necessity. am not prepared to say as
to whether they are Indispensable or
not. however.
"Once upon time not so very long
ago I was what one might call a
'pampered collegian.' What I.mean is
that pulled an oar in q varsity boat,
and had all the trimmings that go
with doing 6o-the russ, the featnerS,
the training table. And / was wor-
ried-gee whillikens, how I was wor-
ried!-just for fear I'd eat something
that would throw my precious and
delicate stomach out of gear, and
thus ruin myself forever as an oars
man. I Stunned pie. I turned pale at
the mere proximity of a piece Of cake.

three times a day. Truly In doing

Training a Joke.

As for training. 1t was q joke. At
that particular school We were known
to have the best Chow" in the Navy.
We had southern colored cooks and
Oh. boy! The pies and cakes they
made! Well, we ate everything we
could get our hands on and q little
bit more. We ate pie, ice cream. cake,
candy. sodas-some of the fellows
gave up smoking during our season
Others didn't
The course we were taking was a
three-year one that had been showed
into six months, and think you will
understand what that means. As a
rule, We stayed up until IL or IL
working. Sometimes we'd stay. up
all night. We had the regular anchor
watch, and the foot ball team was
never excused. 1t was nothing star
Ting for Que of us to study until
about IL o'clock, go to bed and sleep
until Q in the morning. and then
stand anchor watch from Q to $50
and then play game in the after
noon.
And those days when we didn't have
to study, we'd go on liberty. and come
home-.Oh, then or thereabouts.
And, the point of this Is that we
played through q season Of rafting
hard games 1--WE took on marines a
Marine meets on the foot ball field the

teams from university to Army. adj
ministered a number of Dealings, and
got thoroughly trounced ourselves
here and there. But nobody was ever
out of condition or done up or car
ried OFF the field exhausted. nor was
there any ,perceptible slowing up of
our play in the last quarter due to
exhaustion. OF course. we were all
as tired as any one is at the end of a
hard game.
Anyhow. there's the story. Perhaps
do wrong by comparing crew and
foot ball, but after all. It is just as
important to be in good condition for
one as 1t is for the other. OF course,
during war time, the mental state Ii
entirely different than at any other
time, and. the body can be brought up
to meet demands which 1T otherwise
would refuse. But the scale Is lower
ON the non-training side in my esti-
nation, and points to thorough re-
organisation of our. university meth

lied, but possesses not a little in the
way of base ball talent. 1t is stated
that Lighter Aitcheson,. lately re-
turned from the Brooklyn National
League club. is to do the pitching for
the Maryland town. Clarendon is not
so strong now as it was some time
ago. but the st. Elizabeth's aggre-
cation has won something like FOUR
teen straight games.

It has played. Wednesday 1t, defeated
