Permitted in League,

City league moguls gathered at the
Y. N. C. A. last ewing to take &C.
ton on the application OF the new
N. V. T. Company team for entrance
into the city league, and when the
lineup Of the new team was announc-
ed, containing such names as john
son, Martin. Harrick and McKenstry,
together with the pick Of the present
Watson Building aggregation, many
Of the moguls suffered such a severe
nervous shock that they would have
paid at least so cents for a good drink
Of liquor but no liquor being on the
boards at that price three or four OF
them. after the meeting helped boost
the fund to send Y. W. C. A. dele

Boiler.
The night was hot-terribly hot.
One could sec the respiration stand,

feel it trickling down ones spinal
column In , an annoyingly steady
stream. This torrid condition prevail

question to have an extended session
Of wind jamming round the execu..

ever decision the president Of the
league arrived at, after consultation
with industrial heads, would be lived

This motion was quickly seconded by
another heat stricken mogul, the

Non Frat Men
Getting Ecncss

MoPGANTOWN, June 15.-For-
rest Rut!edge THOMPSON Of Morgan.
town a SOPHOMORE in the College Of
Engineering was today elected to the
Dosition OF manager Of the Varsity
track team for the season Of 1871.
Thompson has served two years as
an assistant manager.
An unusual feature OF Thompsons
election is that he is a non-fraterntty
man, which is to say he does not be-
long TO any Of the dozen or more
Ereek Letter fraternities on the CAM
nus. The .raternities as rule eacn
send a man out for competition Tor
Varsity managerships and the result
is that the few non-frat men are large
" crowded out in spite OF the fact
that only thirty per cent OF the men
in the university belong to the ira
ternities. Then, too. the accusation
has beA made in the past that Fra
ternity politics" had much to do win
the failure Of non-frat men to land
Varsity managerial positions.
The election Of "FCts' Shugrou 70
the important position Of student
member Of the athletic board which
TOOL place some time ago was anoth-
or victory for the non-frat element
and it may be that these two events
are merely forerunners OF much more
general competition on the part OF
Son-fratenlty men for elective posts
at the university.

Thrift stamp Week.

State superintendents of schools
in every state in the Fifth Federal
Reserve District have been notified
that National Thrift Stamp week will
be observed beginning Monday
March /, and ending Saturday,
March 6.
The War Loan Organization for
this territory is sending out instruc-
tions, literature and pledge cards to
superintendents, and will cooperate
in every way to awaken new interest
on the part of parents and pupils in
practicing everyday thrift. The. eff
fort is intended to emphasize the
value of saving regularly in small
amounts. Through the press, school
journals, notices on school bulletin
boards, programs, and in various
ways the message of the 25-cent
United States Thrift Stamp will be
carried.
1t is likely that the celebration of
Thrift Stamp week in the schools
will eliminate ON Friday, March S,
with an entertainment featuring the
number of Thrift Stamps each child
has bought during the week, and the
presentation of program based on
those prepared by the Treasury De-
partment for this purpose.

Get Back to Clover.

From the Atlantic to Iowa and
from Tennessee to Canada clover is
the key crop in rotations, but there
Is a gradual though steady decline
in the culture of red clover i'll this
area. Specialists in the Bureau oil
Plant Industry, United States De-
partment of Agriculture. are sci ioNs-
ly concerned over this decline and
urge all farmers to get back to
clover.
Less planting Of clover has in
juriously affected the productiveness
of The region and is likely to affect
it still more injuriously If some.
thing is not done either to increase
the acreage of clover or to find sub
stitute.
whether a farmer adopts q
three, four, or five year rotation,
the specialists declare, she Is sure to
find that his yields viii decline il
he does not have clover somewhere
in the rotation, Theoretically, OF
course, it Is possible to substitute
another leguminous crop for clover,
but practically clover fits so well into
the agricultural practices of this sec
ton that it is the only leguminous
crop having any large degree OF in
fluence upon keeping up the produc-
tivity of the SOIL"

A COUGH LIKE THIS
II You Take This lady's Advice
Treat 1t Tonight Like
This.

my husband had a cough that
would not yield to any treatment we
knew about and the pains across his
chest and in his lungs got worse.
His bronchial trouble grew worse
too, he was so weak we really didn't
know what to do until one night we
saw in the paper where another
party was praising Earle's Hypo-
Cod for such troubles. We bought
bottle and it stopped his cough
entirely. It did just like they said
it would. 1t built him right up to
new strength too, and all the pains
and soreness in his chest disappear
ed. It surely is medicine of great
value and unhesitatingly recon-
mend 1t to ALL" declared Mrs. ]. p.
Humphrey, 1899 Naylor Road, S. E..
Washington, D. G.
There are thousands of people
troubled. with bronchial, and catar-
rhai complaints and are continually
bothered with coughs and colds dur
ing the winter months. They surely
should not neglect such a condition,
they should at once take good tonic
which quickly drives away the
trouble. Thousands have recon-
mend Earle's Hypo-Cod for such
troubles, doctors, druggists, and
nurses say it is simply wonderful
how quickly it brings relief. The
formula is on each bottle and being
put out by the nationally known
Earle Chemical Co., is assurance OF
first quality and full strength. Get
bottle tonight.
Earle's Hypo-Cod is sold here by
Eli T. Reynolds and the leading
druggists in all nearby towns.
Price $1.25, plus sc war tax.

LETTER FROM FRANCE.



Doing Reconstruction Work.
Grange lie Comte, France.
1st Mo. 25th, 1920.
Dear Home Folks
Just think of{~it! A year ago
today Tommy (PhfIlips) and were
getting out Of sight Of New York.
How can a year pass so quickly!
Now Tommy is talking Of sailing
home on the 18th of March from
England, and am. wondering where
will be headed then. / had made
up my mind to be excused, and go
with him when went up to see
Wilmer Young and Leslie Heath, -
just back from the States, and James
Morton about it, and they trampled
all over my plans. They say must
60 to Vienna with the whole trans
port feet and get everything under
way before I return for college in
the fall. So much for their decision.
We are very busy now doing the
impossible things-closing the mis-.
sion on the set date. It can, and
will be done. Our overhaul program
is progressing very we'll. The cars
are taken down, even the Liberties,
to the chassis, and all thoroughly
overhauled, creased, cleaned and
painted. We are authorized to buy
the army cars for 10000 francs or
$4,000. Now we are planning to
finish by loading all this material
and ship it to Vienna on Red Cross
trains. l have been two days taking
inventory of all stock, giving weight
of all the stuff, and with dimensions
in case of the cars. It will take
from forty to fifty cars to carry all
the stuff in the transport alone. You
know the difference in French cars
from American. At all events we
will start to load the LIST Of Feb. II
the cars come in. BY the goth the
whole of Grange must be closed.
That means the overhaul WORK must
be done by the 10th. Already we
are liquidating lots of stuff. The
purchase and sales dept. are having
sales here at Grange from their
store rooms. They are taking stock
today and will turn it. over to the
liquidation board. The latter will
continue the sales for two weeks
longer, including in the sales any
thing at Grange for sale. The place
is full of "carts" every day from all
over the. country.
Some of the German prison camps
have started for home. Our seven
teen boys German prisoners) are
still here and helping wonderfully
with our overhaul program. The
four German painters at Grange, and
the three at Varennes working on
the Liberties" are doing wonder
full job. 1t is inspiring to see the
cars coming out of the shops in such
| fine shape.
Yesterday afternoon we had a
soccer match with the Germans. Our
team-all English but three of us
beat them Z to 8. The boys played
very well considering the fact tina,
some of them had not played before.
After the game and hot baths, we all
took tea, and we gave them little
"Pantomine," then they took supper
with us and afterward we sang and
played games for an hour before
they went home.

Too much care cannot be exercised
in selecting a cough medicine for
children. It should be pleasant to
