Coach Lee Nails, of the Virginia
Athletic Club football team believes
in the saying: practice makes per-
feet" During the past week, ne has
had the lads work out every evening
perfecting different trick plays that
were used in yesterdays football
game played on the shipyam Field
with the United Senate Props team.
The Viroinias were victorious by a
81 to o score. The teams were even
" matched, and, while the Senators
were good football players, the Vir-
ginias showed to better advantage IN
every branch Of the game.
| The Virginias scored in the first
quarter, when "Taddy" shafer, who
was playing brilliant football, carried
the ball over the line for a touch
down. Sammy Sampson, kicked a
GOAL thus putting the Virginias'
seven points to the good.
Two touchdowns-one by West and
another by Rowen-after sensational
playing by members Of the Virginias,
were tailed during the second quar-
ter. Sampson kicked his second goal
for the game.
The scoring ended in the third
quarter, after Goodies" Owens rush
ed over the line for the final touch
down, and John Nugent kicked a
goal.
Corsa, right end, and Poss, left
end, raced over the field almost
as fast as Man % War, the great
race horse. Captain Jimmy Alex
ander entered the contest during the
last half of play and gained many
yards for his team by long end runs.
The entire Virginia team played
an excellent brand of football; for
ward passes, hand-to-hand maneuvers,
and pivot plays were executed in a
lightning-like manner, when Quarter
back Nugent gave signal numbers
for their execution.
The playing Of Earl Cornell was
excellent and he received many hard
knocks from the visitors but would
come back for more with smile on
face (but many an ache in his bodyN

Papers Say High Price Era in Eng
land is Over.

London, Oct. 1S.-The high cost of
living in England is a; an end. The
war boom is over" according to the
London newspapers who announce
the fact with prominently displayed
streamers across their front pages.
They indicate that the English are
optimistic of giving the knockout
blow very soon to the remaining high
prices.
During the past six months the
average fall in prices on raw m;-
terials has been 80 per cent. Rub
Der products have come down so per
cent, tin has tumbled 2a per cent;
copper, 6 per cent, Merino wool, 45.
per cent, and American cotton, 80 per
cent.
The only sensational decline among
food stables, however, was the 80
per cent drop in the price of sugar.
Declaring that the output has now
outstripped purchasing power, the
London Times says that the thigh
tide Of artifisial prosperity has at
last begun to ebb in the United
States"
"The decline in England has been
more rapid" the Times points out.

favor did not deter him from prompt
execution of the penalty for MUIR
der. He wanted TO get and hold his
throne by divine favor, not by the
methods OF the devil. His views in
this case were inexplicable TO many
at the time. but In the long run they
redounded TO his benefit as thought
full men began to realize that here
was man to whom principle was
greater than expediency. The men
who slew fshbosheth committed a
political crime, but they expected TO
be rewarded. Their fate was notice
served on others that crime would
not be tolerated because II was done
with a praiseworthy end In view.
David had no patience with the idea
OF doing evil that good might come.
David won a crown and a king
dom without ever doing q dishonest
or unkind thing to get II for him
self, nor would he tolerate or in
dorse the doing OF wrong for his in
terest. True success is not won by
grabbing for II. but comes as the
natural result of deserving Il. The
real human reason why David was
voluntarily accepted by the people as
king was that they liked him.
He was unselfish. generous, con-
scientious. risked his life with his
men. and never took an unfair ad-
vantage Of others, He was just and
square with friend and foe alike.
SO the kingdom came to him be-
cause God meant that II should.
Courage and unseifishncss make a
combination that will tell in the af-
fairs of the world. and will ulti-
mately succeed far better than the
efforts OF INSCRIPTIONS selfishness.
Success Is usually regarded In the
light OF acquiring wealth or a great
name, but 1t takes the Sitting process
OF time to find out who have really
succeeded In the permanent mean
ing OF tho term. Temporary tri-
umph may mean much or little.
Too many men achieve what they
call success by methods which in
themselves hold the germs of fail
ure. They flash across the firm
ament for a space OF time and then
fade away, and few people miss them
or mourn their absence. Others la
Dor and suffer for years to reach an
ideal and depart leaving an actual
impress for good upon their fellow
beings. Which are really success
full? Time is required to realize a
Just estimate OF mans standing.
People may be dazzled by a spurious
article. but in the years to come dis
passionate second thought will give
a juster verdict. There can be no
really successful life that is not In =
spired by high aims and purity of
character. No man Is prosperous

Lesson July rs. II Samuel 2:1-7;
b:1-5.
The same honesty Of purpose and
generosity to those who opposed him
that impelled David TO spare the life
Of Saul when It was evident that the
Lord had thrown his enemy into his
power, again showed itself In his
treatment OF the men who remained
loyal to the house of the slain king
n well as In his prompt execution
Of justice upon fool friends who had
thought TO please him by numbering
the lone heir to Saul's throne. 1t
may be said that there was good poll
itics in his conduct. Doubtless there
was, for the people in time will
respond to integrity of mind and
heart, even though in the light of
prevailing opinion such conduct was
foolish and unconventional. The only
good kin dof politics is that which
is based upon conviction OF right
and justice. rather than upon a
hankering after popularity. The
man who seeks to follow public opin-
ion may flourish for a while. but in
the long run the people will turn
with confidence and trust to the
man who, In spite OF adverse public
opinion, stands steadfast for what
he is convinced Is right.
Those who told David OF the
burial of Saul doubtless expected
the new king would seek to wreak
revenge upon the partisans of the
king who had for years made him a
refugee in n foreign land. The usual
course of a new monarch was to
wlay all who could possibly be sus-
pected of leaning toward his enemies
or plotting against his throne. Da-
vid rather south TO win the friend
ship of tn opposition, commencing
them for their loyalty to the crown
and respect for the dead. charging
them to be strong and valiant for
the new regime as they had been for
the old. Nothing disarms vindictive
opposition like being credited with
good motives and taking Il for
granted that they will follow a right
eous course. BY his Kindness to the
men of Jabesh-Gilead David ce-
mented to his reign the loyalty Of
the people In that section and made
treason unpopular.
Likewise, on the other hand. he
put a stop at once to crimes COM
mitted in his favor by hanging the
men who assassinated the heir to
Sauis throne. They were towards,
but they planned to ingratiate them
selves in favor with the new govern
ment by removing a claimant to Da-
vid's throne. But David's sense OF
right was supreme to his selfish in
Hfincts. The fact that hideous
crime had been committed In his

will win real success as a real leader
of men. David was never slow to seize
opportunities. but he ascribed all TO
the wish and the guidance of Jcho-
vah. Whether he considered II in

O[OTMER BACK
 FROM SOUTH ID
 STAY IN NORTH

and am not saying people cannot make money there, if they have money to start with or are in busi- 1 mess; but in my opinion 1t is no iplace for the workingman. As bad as they are, conditions in Alaska are better right now than in any 1 of the towns saw in the States" That is the way George Brown, oldtimer of the North, just back l from the States, describes condi- tions as they appeared to him in Seattle, Vancouver, and other coast cities. He says there are a lot of idle men along the coast just now, and the number is increasing steadi- l ly as result of slowing down of shipbuilding and other construc- tion activities. During the time that he was in Vancouver, TOO men were laid off in one day, and more were to follow.
 Brown has been in the North since 1900, and went out last fall on his first visit since leaving the States, attracted partly by glowing accounts of prosperous conditions and partly by a desire to take things easy for a few months. He saw a lot of money being spent,
 but he did not find conditions among the workers of the coast very prosperous. In fact, he says, con- ditions are such at present that
 one has to actually beg for a job, and some of the unemployed, he was told, have been reduced to the point of begging for something to feat. Brown says he did not look 1 for a job, but he met and talked i with many workers.
 Brown found a good restaurant in
 Seattle, back of the Smith building, where substantials meals are served
 at 35 cents each, and the place is
 enjoyinr a good run. He found the
 meals there better than those of
 many of the higher priced cafes.
 1 Clothing prices in Seattle are as ! high as they are in Interior Alaska. Brown priced a suit of Medlicott, black label, in Seattle, and found that he could buy the same suit in Brooks for the same money-$1O
 He decided to wait until he reached
 Brooks before investing, thus saving the excess weight on the trail.
 Brown came North on the steam
 ship Alameda and says the boat brought a considerable number of passengers up, but was not crowded.
 Quite a few disembarked at Cor
 dova, enroute to the copper mine at Kennecott, and a number came on to Seward to seek work on the Government railroad. Attached to
 the train which brought him to An
 chorage there was coach-load of
 men for the commission, sent from
 Seward to work on the road; but up to the time Brown left, they had mot been placed and it was not known to the men when they would get on. The arrivals were furnish ed with passes at Seward, and they expected to be provided with bed land board upon arrival at Anchor Iage, but in that they were disap-

pointed.


 Brown says the commission has quite a force at work north of Tal- |keetna, a gang of considerable size being engaged at Hurricane gulch, where preparations are being made for the steel bridge which is to be erected there later, and others being !strung out along the grade, beyond the end of steel.
 The trail was not in very good condition when Brown and his com panion, Dugas, came over. It began showing on the day they left Tal- keetna, February first, and con- tinued to snow all the way over, with occasional drifts of considera- ble depth It was hard mushing, but they made 1t in nine days, and without snowshoes They reached Canyon City on Monday, just too late to catch the train into town.
